SPENCER
CASE IN COURT
No Decision Given in Fight to
Recover Job on the County
Board of Taxation.

ELIZABETH, July 27.-Arguments
were heard here today before the
main branch of the supreme court in
certiorari quo warranto mandamus
proceedings effecting the right to the
office Of the secretary Of the county
board of taxation in Middlesex,
Union and Monmouth counties. The
court was composed of Chief Justice
Gummere, Justice Katzenbach and
Justice Bergen. The arguments in
all three cases were substantially
alike.
In Middlesex county William A.
Spencer, Republican. was superseded
on May 1 as secretary by the appoint
ment of Frank NJ. Deiner, of New
Brunswick. The county board met
on May 1 to organize and only the
two Democratic members were
present. Deiner was appointed, and
the two members of the board de-
cided to adjourn until May 8, at
which time Fred Haney, the Re-
publican member was present and he
objected to the appointment of
Deiner. He claimed he had not re-
ceived notice of the meeting, so the
two Democratic members again went
through the formalities of organiza-
ton and again appointed Deiner to
the Office to succeed Spencer.
Josiah Stryker. of the firm Of Lin
deberry, Depew and Faulks, coun-
selor for Spencer stated that the ap-
pointment of Deiner was illegal ana
in violation of the law passed by the
1920 legislature owe the veto of
Governor Edwards, and which be-
come effective April 30. This law
extended the tenure of office act to
the tar board secretaries. Spencer
had been appointed the preceding
May LIST for a term of one year, but
it was commended in his case and
each of the other cases. this May list
the new law p~erpetuated them in
Office.
The new law was attacked by
John T. kirkpatrick, of New Bruins
wick, counselor for Deinzer and the
Middlesex county tax board on the
grounds that its title was defective
and also ~contending that even
though the law is good, these provi-
sions did not apply to the secreta-
ries who were in Office at the time
of it's enactment, but they apply to
those in Office after the law went
into effect.
The Union county "a is brought
under mandamus proceedings in
which Peter J.. Olde Republican, Is
the prosecutor to compel the tax
board to recognize him as secretary.
He was ousted on May i by the ap-
pointment of James p. Kelly, DEM
ocrat, as secretary. Former Vice
Chancellor Merritt Lane represented
Kelly and the Union county tax
board.
The Monmouth county action is
between Howard ". Roberts. who
was oustcd on May 1 by John l..
Sweeney. Harry Heller, of Trenton.
appered as counsel in this case for
Roberts in quo warranto proceed
ings.
None of the cases were decided
today, the court allowing the respon-
dent ten days to submit brief and
the prosecutors five days to answer.
TheNcourt will decide these cases in
August.

COOLIDGE STANDS BY
HARDING IN HIS PLEDGES
CONTINUED from page IL

THE greatest need of the nation
at the present time Is to be rescued
from all reaction of the war. The
chief task that lies before us Is to
repossess the people of their gov
eminent and their property.
IF the great conflict has disturb
ed our political conditions, it has
caused an upheaval in our economic
relations. The mounting prices of
all sorts of commodities has put a
well nigh terrible burden on every
home, much of 1t is beyond relief
from law, but the forces Of the gov
eminent can and must afford a con-
siderable remedy.
THE most obvious place to be-
gin retrenchment is by eliminating
the extravaganza of the government
itself. That great breeder of public
and private extravaganza. the excess
profits tax. should be revised and
recourse had to customs taxes and
import, n of the most wholesome
of all means of raising revenue for
it is voluntary in effect and taxes
consumption rather than produc-
ton.
"A revision of taxation must be
accompanied with a reduction of that
private extravaganza which the re-
turns from luxury tax reveal as sur
passing all comprehension.
There has been ~profteering. 1t
should be punished because 1t is
wrong. But it is idle to look for
such action for relief. This class
profits by scarcity but they do not
cause 1t.
"As every one knows now the diff
iculty is caused by a scarcity of
material. and an abundance of money
and insufficient production. The
government must reduce the amount
of money as fast as IL can without
.curtailing necessary credits. Produc-
ton must be increased.
"One of the chief hindrances to
production is lack of adequate rail-
road facilities. Transportation must
be reestablished.
There must be a different public
attitude toward industry: larger
comprehension for inter-dependence
Of capital, management and labor,
and better facilities for the prompt
and reasonable adjustment of in
dustrial disputes.
THE farmers need an enlarged
power of organization whereby the
original producer may profit to a
larger degree by the high prices
paid for his produce by the uitiS
mate consumer, and at the same
time decrease the cost of food. The
economic strength Of a country
rests on the farm.
But all these difficulties depend
for final solution on the character
and moral force of the nation. IN
less these forces abound and man.
ifest themselves in work done there
is no real remedy"
