Mayor Frank Dorsey had before
the Board of Aldermen at their first
meeting of the year last night a COM
munication which contained recon-
mendations for improvements over
and changes in present methods of
doing business. The aldermen in
some cases had acted along certain of
these lines before hearing from the
Mayor.
For instance the municipal garage
idea has been fostered by the alder
men for some time and it was with
this in mind that Alderman-atL
John N. Wester named a new COM
mittee, to be known as the motor
maintenance committee, when he an
nounced his 1920 standing committees
last night. There has been talk for
some time among the aldermen of the
efficiency in having a portable or
temporary garage on the city prop
erty, corner Of New Brunswick ave-
nue. and Fayette street.
The suggestion of Mayor Dorsey
that a purchasing system be estab-
lished with a purchasing agent in
charge was mentioned about month
ago at q committee meeting of the
board at which the Mayor attended.
Among the other recommendations
that the Mayor makes are: Active
work by a non-partisan committee to
further city planning here; street

ings brought by Duhne. a Hudson
county saloon keeper, attacking the
prohibition amendment and the Vol

gestion of Governor-elect Edwards
to test the validity of the prohibition
measures, Attorney General Nc
Gran today issued statement ex-
planning his position. Mr. .McCran
said in paN respecting Duhne's suit:
Without consulting any state off,
cials he made the state of New Jer-
sey, together with the law officials of
the national government a defendant
to his suit. It is fundamental prin-
ciple equal to the sovereignty of a
state that citizen cannot sue his own
state and il l had consented to the fl

sition where to uphold its sovereignty
it would have had to defend the va
lidity Of the eighteenth amendment,
as we'll as the Volstead act. For this
reason l opposed the granting of leave
to file the bill of complaint when the
matter came before the court yester-
day on the return OF the rule 10 snow
cause, which the court caused to be
served on the state last week.
The position which I took yester-
day in the Duhne case has no bearing
on or relation to my attitude as At
torney General when Mr.. Edwards
has qualified as governor Person
ally, l believe that the validity of the
eighteenth amendment as we'll as tho

Edwards to do so l will prompt y

satisfaction has arisen In talking with
a Times reporter Mr.. Connell informed
him that he will soon tender his resig-
nation to take effect Jan. l and will
take up another line of work This

GREETED in his home county and in

ALWAYS TOO BUSY

Are we too busy to live today? Is
that the reason we put off living until
tomorrow? There is a friend whom
we should like to visit. The days, the
weeks, the years go by and we have
not called. The friend is taken away.
We have put off the visit too long; we
were too busy.
There is pleasure to be found in a
little trip to the country 1t would
rest the husband and be holiday for
the children. But we are too busy.
We put it off until some other time
and the other time seems never to
come We are always too busy. There
is a hundred little kindnesSes we should
do if we only had the time. The
chances pass, the time never comes.
We are too busy for the kindnesses.
We are too busy today. We are too
busy week in and week out. There is
time for everything if we place the
most important thing first. We are
too busy over trivial matters to get
the real good out of living. When we
get over our hurry, some day we shall
live as we wish, we cheat ourselves
into believing. But the day never
comes. We come, we pass, and we
never know the joys of life We have
been too busy to live. Too busy-al-
ways too busy.
