vet Presbyterian Church, Atlantic
City, at noon on Thursday, when Miss
Clara E. Rawley, attractive daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Rawley, be-
came the bride of Prof Howard D.

mony was performed under a bower of
roses and ferns by Rev. Newton W.
Caldwell, D. D., in the presence of the
immediate families and a very few in
innate friends.
Miss Rawley. who was attended by
Miss Evelyn NJ. Peacock, of Pleasant
vile, as bridesmaid, vas charmingly
gowned in an imported model of
French gray with hat to match and
wore an exquisite bouquet of orchids
and lilies-of-the-valley. Mr.. E. B. Van
Voorhees,, Jr., acted as best man.
After congratulations and best wish
es of their many friends, Professor
and Mrs. Thayer left on an extended
bridal trip.
Professor Thayer is prominent in
society circles of Orange, Mass, and
is professor of the Caldwell School of
New Jersey, while his bride has been
one of Personalities school teachers
for a number of years and enjoys a
wide circle of friends, who wish her
much happiness.

He went away, taking the other two
sandwiches with him, claiming that he
had a male companion with him in the
boat. The Point people, however, did
not see anyone, and therefore do not
know who it was. This was the last
that was seen of him. On the follow
ing day his sneakbox drifted to the
beach. All P~leasantville is alarmed
as to his safety and the worst is fear
ed.
He was generally liked, being a man
of steady and industrious habits. He
maintained a real estate office at 81 S.
Main street, and was secretary of the
Workingmen's B. & L. Association of
Pleasantville.. He was a member of
keystone Lodge, F. and A. NJ. of Lin
wood. An extended search was insti-
tuted for his body, a drag hook being
obtained and dynamite also being
used, but no trace of the body had
been found up to the hour of going to
press.
The dynamiting was done by Con-
tractor Edward L. Bader, of Atlantic
City, who gave his services without
charge and for which Mrs. Vickers is
grateful and desires to express her
appreciation.

HEARST WINS MT. VERNON SUIT
Appellate Division Reverses Jus
tice Who Denied Injunction,

The Appellate Division, sitting in
Brooklyn yesterday, reversed the de-
cision by Justice Young in the Su-
preme Court in Westminster county
under which the sale of the New
York American and New York Epe-
ming journal was banned in Mount
Vernon. The City Council prohibited
the sale of the Hearst publications
and a petition filed by the Star Com
pany, which publishes them, asked
for an injunction. Justice Young dis
missed the petition and the reviewing
court holds his action was error.
at Is clear that such a ban on a
newspaper by a city or municipality
Is beyond its powers, and it would
thereby invade the constitutional

Grand Fleet shared in the surrender
OF the German warships and feet.

frequently was called upon during the
war to act as convoy for important
troop transports to protect them

CALLS CONSTITUTION FLEXIBLE
Ex-senator Sutherland Sees It
Adapted TO Modern Affairs.

The Constitution framed for the
Government of the United States in
1887 is sufficiently flexible to cover
the complicated affairs Of to-day, IN
the opinion of former Senator George
Sutherland of Utah. In lecture at
Columbia University Mr.. Sutherland
said last night:
THE Constitution was not made
alone for those who adopted 1t. 1t wa
made for us who followed them, and
for those who will follow us. AS II
served for the small affairs OF the
fathers il serves for the large affairs
of their sons. and will serve for the
vast affairs of the unborn generation;
not because its meaning changes but
because its capacity for adaptation is
indefinitely flexible"
Senator Sutherland pointed out that
the provision for Congressional regu-
lation of interstate commerce applies
TO steamships, railroads, telephone and
telegraph lines and aeroplanes as
readily as il applied to canal boats
and stage coaches.

TRADE TO GET FLEET
OF 100000 TONS
List of Ships for Release Is
Sent to Secretary Baker
for Review.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Ships with
aggregate carrying capacity Of soo,-
900 tons have been designated to be
turned over by the Army Quartermas-
ter Department to the Shipping Board
for return to trade routes. Major
Gen. Goethals so informed Senator
Smith Is. c. of the Senate Interstate
Commerce Committee to-day.
Gen. Goethals said n list OF the
ships. no longer in troop and army
supply services, has been sent to Sec
rotary Baker for review before 1t goes
to the Shipping Board.
Representations made recently to
Washington by the Chamber OF Com
merce in New York showed that more
than 100000 tons OF export freight
was tied up here alone, and that I'M
less early relief from the shortage Of
tonnage was granted manufacturers
and importers would face heavy
losses.
The understanding here is that the
ships designated for trade purposes
will not be returned directly to the
owners, but will be turned back by the
War Department TO the United States
Shipping Board, and by that body allo-
Gated to various trades, principal
among which will be South and Gem
trail American commerce.
Also II is understood that the $780,
900 tons now designated will soon be
increased TO more than 1000, 900 tons.
1t is also possible that the Shipping
Board may operate the released ves-
sels through the various established
lines, which would handle the work
of loading. sailing and discharging in
designated trades, as agents OF the
Shipping Board. a procedure which
was followed In many instances when
the vessels were first requisitioned.
Major Heating, secretary and ex-
ecutive officer OF the shipping control
committee, the branch OF the Shipping
Board. which heretofore has had the
handling and control of all American
vessels. issued this statement:
The situation with regard to tom
mage to be released for trading pur-
poses has been put in the hands OF
the War Department at Washing
ton. Decision as to what tonnage
can be released rests with that body.

NEW ATTACKS MADE
ON ARMY PAY DELAY
Representative Saunders Tells
of Ten Mouths Wait by a
Soldiers Mother.
SRccial Despatch 70 TIE srN.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-Another
storm over the heartrending delays
in paying soldiers the money the
Government owes them. particularly
their payments due from war risk
insurance, broke out in the House to-
day. The storm was brewed in the
House Interstate Commerce Commit
tee and carried from there to the floor.
Brig. Gen. H. NJ. Lord. recently
placed at the head of the entire
finance system of the War Depart
ment, was before the committee and
placed much of the blame on the divi-
sion Of authority and responsibility
between the War and Navy depart
ments and the Bureau Of War Risk
Insurance. He defended the work OF
Herbert ID. Brown, acting head OF the
War Risk Insurance Bureau, but
caused some smokers in the committee
when he told the members that Mr..
Brown also was head OF the United
States Bureau OF Efficiency.
There was no partisanship In the
sharp criticism OF the breakdown Of
the system. Republicans and Demo-
Gratis alike voiced their displeasure in
no uncertain terms.
Delinquency of Ten Months.
Representative Saunders (Va),
Democrat. said before the Interstate
Commerce Committee that he knew
of one case where soldier died In
Camp Meade, only a few minutes from
Washington. yet his dependent mother
did not receive the first payment Of
his insurance until ten months had
elapsed.
Gen. Lord, in the course OF his tes-
tiniony. said that most of the criticism
directed at the War Department and
the War Risk Insurance Bureau has
been by those who do not appreciate
the magnitude of our task"
Representative Mann (Ill.) followed
up his complaint OF a few days ago
with another In the House. He had a
telegram from Richmond. Va, read to
the House, which said in part: Your
statement in Congress in regard to
payment OF wounded men is absolutely
confirmed by men returned to hospital
here. Men with whom / have talked
stated that they are In arrears from
five to eleven months. Henry e.
Baskerville"
Representative Madden Gll0 added
that he had received a letter from a
soldier to-day complaining that since
last June his wife had not received a
cent of the allotment he had made her.
and that he had not received any pay
during that time.
Rucker Offers to Prove Neglect.
Representative Rucker (Mo), Dem
ocrat, said: III the report is true
which reaches me through channels
which think reliable, one trouble in
the War Risk Insurance Bureau
arises from the gross negligence and
almost criminal conduct OF some In
authority. l believe that while the
boys were fighting more than 10000
letters containing allotments, applica-
tons for allowances, applications in
behalf Of widows and wives and all
that sort OF thing were dumped into q
heap and left there, and when a clerk
discovered this and opened 5000 or
1000 OF them some one higher In au-
thority said that has got to stop. be-
cause II was making too much work.
