PARRY REPLIES TO MACKAY
ON STATE DENTAL Bills
tBy Evening News Correspondent

TRENTON, April 25-Replying
to the charge of Senator Mackay.
Republican floor leader of the last
Senate that the dental bills of Sem
ator Parry. of Essex, would have
wiped out the State Dental Society,
the latter today denied the conten-
ton of the floor leader.
All the bills would have done
would have been to restore to the
governor the right to name the
members of the State Board of Dem
tistry, who examine candidates for
license, Parry said. The law now
Iepires the executive to name the
men selected by the dental organ
ization. Parry pointed out, and
only half of the dentists in the state
are members of this society.
Mackay overlooked mentioning
the fact that as chairman of the
judiciary committee he killed in
committee senate No. PA. which
would permit the Public Utility
Comission to compel the produc-
tion before it of the records of the
Public Service Corporation. con-
tinued Parry. a holding company
of other public service concerns.
Under the present law the Public
Utility Commission has no power
said the Essex senator, to investi-
gate the books of holding compa-
nies such as the Public Service
Corporation.

OVERLOADED
TRUCKS;F|NED

Three truck drivers were taken
into custody by Inspector George
Burton, of the State Highway De-
partment, today, on charges of over
loading their vehicles and fines of
$50 were imposed by Recorder Pick
ersgill for the violation. The COM
plainant in the action made it clear
that there are signs on the state
highway bridge between this city
md South Amboy stating that trucks
weighing not more than six tons
(gross weight) are allowed to cross
the bridge. The fact that heavier
trucks cross the bridge is given as
the cause by State Engineer Thomas
Wasser for the need of constant re-
pair, the inspector pointed out to the
court.
The truck owners have on their
registration cards the weight of their
truck unloaded, the amount 1t can
carry and the total is the gross
weight, and the state is paid accord
ing to the last figure. Frank Salle,
of 5SS Amboy avenue, driver Tor
Castles Ice Cream Company, was
charged with driving a truck with a
load 1400 pounds overweight. and
William Bouge. colored. OF 1S9 Fay
cite street. another one or Castles S
drivers, was in charge or a truck
about 3,735 pounds overweight. The
third man. Andrew Rawlings, color
ed, of 1S9 Fayette street, was about
a ton and a quarter overweight. All
three were fined $50.
The overloaded trucks are main
lv responsible for the condition of n
great many roads, and the highway
commission has started drive en-
forcing the weight rule.
The state Inspector also took into
custody this morning Stanislaw Pan
kicwicz of 52S Penn street, a driver
for Samuel Baum, on a charge of
not having the proper registration.
A fine of SO was imposed.
A representative of the ice cream
company will visit Com missioner
Dill in regard to a promised ruling
on weights. inasmuch as the greater
majority of the ice cream trucks
weigh nearly six tons when unload
ed.

station, that instead of being open
for examinations twice a month as IS

The examinations will take place

The district which this examina-

SEE G. 0. P. SPLIT THIS
YEAR IN GOVERNOR RACE

TRENTON, April 25.-Although
this will be what is commonly
known as an "off year" in state poll
tics, with control of the 1922 legis-
lature, the only real stake in the
fight between the Democrats and
Republicans forces are working
which indicate the G. o. p. chiefs
will have plenty to interest them.
1t is apparent to close political OBJ
servers here that the leaders in the
Republican ranks are lining up for
a big fight to determine the suprem-
acy and control of the state organi-
zation. On the one side will be
ranged the forces of United States
Senator Walter L. Edge, of Atlantic
City, and on the other those of for
mer Senator David Baird, of Cam
den, National Committeeman Ham
ilton f. Kean, of Union county, and
Republican State Chairman Edward
C. Stokes. In the opinion of State
House politicians the real battle will
be staged next year and the contest
for the Republican nomination for
governor will be the big factor in
deciding who is to be the future
state leader of the party.
The aird-Stok es-Kean faction is
already reported to have decided to
back the candidacy of former acting
governor and present State Senator
William n. Runyon, of Union coun-
ty for the nomination, and while
there has been no public announce
ment from the Atlantic City senator
to this effect. there is lot of talk
that the candidacy for the G. o. p.
gubernatorial honor, which State
Senator William B. Mackay, of Ber-
gen county, has launched, will have
the support of Senator Edge. Sen
ator Mackay is just now very much
in the public eye too as chairman of
the Hudson county probe commit
tee.
1t looks, therefore, at this writing
like a Runyon- Mackay contest not
only to pick the Republican nomi-
nee for governor but to settle the
question of leadership in the state
Just where United States Senator
Joseph f. F'relinghuysen will stand
in the event of this contest is the
subject of some speculation at this
time. 1t is said that he will line up
with the Baird -Stokes-K combi-
nation. Others think his association
with Mr.. Edge at Washington pre-
cludes this possibility. Probably the
best prediction is that being a can
didate to succeed himself next year,
the senior United States senator will
refrain from taking sides with either
faction.
