On the Republican side former Mayor
Thomas L. Raymond of Newark and
Warren C. King Of Bound Brook have
welcomed the trolley situation as an is
sue. Mr.. King has staked practically his
entire campaign on a policy of antago-
nism to the Public Service Corporation,
and Mr.. Raymond also has declared
against increased rates. State Comptrol-
Ter Newton A! K Rugbee and Governor
William N. .Runyon, the remaining Re-
publican candidates, have pursued a
middle course, urging an investigation
OF the finances of the, Public Service
Corporation to determine what rates are
actually necessary.
Gov. Runyon is strongly opposed to
the doctrine of an elective Public Utiii-
ties Commission. urged on the Democra-
tic side as we'll as by Mr. King, although
he believes the present membership
should be reduced from I'VE to three,
and that men should be appointed for
ether than political reasons.
Senator Edward !. Edwards of Hud-
son has declared unequivOcally for an
elective commission. taking the position
that the voters will thus exercise more
direct control of the commission than
is possible under the appointive system
James r Nugent of Essex has not been
stressing public utility control as an
issue, basing his campaign rather upon
his platform of antagonism to prohibit
