the state department of education, DR.
Kendall asked that the board appoint
him and one of its members to try to
arrange with the federal government
and other important information when
the federal census is taken in June

the commissioner in this work.

tanned in their loyalty to the principal
by the parents, who maintain that the

ficatiOn.
Exact Miles impracticabIe.
Many protests against the new zone
fare system of the Public Service rail-
way have been received by the Public
Utility Commission, among them one
from Mayor Gillen of Newark, inform
ing the commission that in some places
in Newark the length of zones laid out
by the Public Service is less than a
mile. The commission has replied to
him that it was understood that the
length of zones in some instances
would vary 10 per cent more or less
than mile The mayor also has been
informed that because of the location
of certain loading and unloading and
transfer points it is impracticable to
have zone measuring exactly mile
and that many times it has been neces-
sary to have it less than a mile
To a Caldwell complaint to the eff
feet that ''long haul" riders will have
to pay greatly Increased fares the COM
mission replied that the feature of the
zone system is to have the rider pay
for service on the basis of the length
of the journey. Ii is admitted that the
coming system is not perfect, and the
commission pledges itself to correct
such imperfections and inequalities as
may be revealed in actual operation.
