MIR. NORTON HEADS BOARD OF
GOVERNORS

c. A. Norton was unanimously
elected Chairman of the Boar OF
Governors of the Wildwood Board OF
Trade at the organization meeting OF
the Governors on Wednesday AFTER
noon of last week. Two of the Com
missioners were present at the meet
ing, the Mayor as managing secretary
and Finance Commissioner Ralph
l.. CARL, as one of the Board OF Gov
errors. Commissioner Alfred Taylor,
at the request of the Chair, is invited
70 every meeting of the Board OF Gov
errors of the Board of Trade.
The commercial relation between
the city and the Board of Trade makes
such an invitation compatible with
city business. The city will througn
the Board of Governors of the Board
Oh Trade award $500 in prizes for the
New Years parade. This may be IN
the form of cash or whatever manner
tne Board Of Governors decide. 1t is
believed, however, that the prizes VIII
oe entirely in money.

LEGION INVESTIGATION SHOWS
WOROBE BROTHERS WERE
NOT SLACKERS

We, the Committee of Investigation,
appointed by the Commander of the
American Legion Post 1874, Department
of New Jersey, to probe the status
of the Worobe brothers, regarding a

slanderous to the vilest extent, and
recommend that any person or persons
hearing such malicious tales repu-
date them at once.

ed upon the investigation of alleged
graft be nolle pressed. He said that
with the Freeholders out of the case
it would be difficult tt prove con-
spiracy against contractors and others
who were indicted. His request was
granted.
The first definite intimation to the
spectators that the defendants in
tended to enter pleas of guilty was
given by John Harris, of counsel for
the defense.
Addressing the Court, Mr.. Harris
said he had been misunderstood at the
last trial in references he made to the
action of the Supreme Court in re-
fusing t o grant the defendants a writ
of certiorari. He denied he said I'M
due influence had been brought to
bear upon the Supreme Court.
CAS- we are about to clean up this
nasty condition in Cape May County,
/ want to set myself straight before
the court" he said. 1--WE have all
come together for the purpose of set
thing the nasty business and now Cape
May County ought to settle down and
stop the system which created this
condition"
NewcOrn FOregOes Jail Sentence
Mr.. Newcorn asked that no Jail SEN
fences be imposed upon the defend
ants. He said he recognized varying
degrees of guilt among them.
Realizing" he said, that contin-
ued trial of these numerous indict-
ments would be very expensive, the
State was willing to entertain pro-
posals by which the pleas of not guilty
entered could be changed. By that
plea, under the act of 1913, the county
officials before the court are legislated
out of office. The effect of accepting
such pleas is virtually the elimination
of action on the conspiracy charges
against contractors and others. 1t
would be impossible to prove the con-
spiracy without the Freeholders and,
expect them to admit moral turpitude.
THE county has it's remedy in a
civil suit against those whom the State
charges defrauded the county. 1 have
tried to justify some of these defend
ants, but the entire body has been de-
stroyed by the system which crept into
the county" - fsf 1890
Counsel Comedies Guilt
| Speaking for the defendants, Mr.
Harris said they were guilty of NAL
~feasance, whether they knew it or not
1--WE felt we could free some Of
them" he said, "but consider it wise
to permit them to change their plea
Some of them have taken our advice
with much reluctance"
While the citizens were interested il
the dramatics of the scene, they are il
no sense pleased with the outcome
The ending of the criminal trials was
discussed by everyone, and apparently
public opinion favored continuance o
the trials and Jail sentences for thu
guilty.
Civil Suits to Be Instituted
1t was said that action preliminary
to civil suits against Freeholders
bankers, contractors and real estate
men would be started at once.

pended 100000 in prosecuting the

FOrmalities Quickly Over

Conferences between attorneys for
the defense and the State upon the
terms under which pleas of guilty
would be entered lasted more than an
hour. 1t was almost noon when Judge
Eldredge assembled the bench.
The formalities were then disposed
of in quick order.
After the defendants had been led
from the courtroom by the Sheriff,
William Newcorn, Assistant Attorney
General of New Jersey, asked that the
