the completion of the arrangements
for the Armistice Day celebration to

indications will be the largest and

suit that there will be several thou
sand marching in the parade. The
educational system. the religious or
ders, the secret organizations. milf
tary bodies. fraternal societies and
foreign born groups have all banded
together and have promised their
moral and financia! support as well
as their actual participation in the
parade.
The historical pageant in the form
of floats will be the contribution or
the public and parochial schools and
much interest is being centered on
this phase of the activities. 1t is ex-
pected that there will be more than
twenty-five floats in line, each of an
elaborate and appropriate makeup.
Because of thu popularity which
the parade is gaining. and upon the
request from several citizens. the
original line of march has been
greatly extended and will cover
much greater territory than intend
ed.

GLUE TO MISSING GIRL
- IS DECLARED GROUNDLESS

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. ST.
The newest clue in the case of Stella
Ostroski, the missing girl who dis
appeared from the vicinity of the
Fresh Ponds schoolhouse two weeks
ago. was today declared to be
groundless by the county detectives
engaged in the search for the child.
1t was said that woman at
Metuchen gave money for transpor-
tation to New YofN to child an
swering to the description of the
missing girl but investigation by the
authorities has revealed the fact
that the two girls are not the same.
The child figuring in the latest clue
is much older than Stella and the
detectives discredit all connection
between the two cases. Nothing
further has developed to indicate
the possible whereabouts of the
child

ACT ON PLEDGE
T0ULSTER|TES
important Meeting is Held in
London When Irish Par
ley is Resumed

LONDON, Nov. S.--By The Associ-
ated Press) An important meeting
to consider phases of the irish
question was held in Downing street
this morning, the participants be-
ing the majority of the government
negotiators, including Lloyd George,
Winston Churchill, Austin Chamber
lain, Lord Birkenhead and Sir Cor
don Hewart. 1t is believed the meet
ing mainly concerned itself with the
legal steps necessary to fulfill the
government pledge to Ulster that
that parliament would be enabled to
function properly and be provided
with funds.
Action along these lines it was
pointed out does not generally effect
negotiations for a settlement. or un-
der the government plan Ulster
would be left local parliament
with more power than the present
parliament had.
Desmond Fitzgerald, of the Sim
Fein delegation, said today on be-
half of his colleagues that they
were taking no part in talks in prog
ress between Sir James Craig, the
Ulster premier. and Lloyd George,
and were merely waiting until the
British premier could put to them a
proposition recognizing the unity of
Ireland.
Michael Collins and George De-
van Duffy. two Sim Fein negotia-
tors who went to Dublin at the week
end returned TO London this morn
ing. 1t is not expected they will be
asked to further conferences before
Friday at which time consultation
between LLOYD George and Sir James
Craig. and the. latter's colleagues in
the Ulster cabinet summoned TO Lon
don. will possibly be concluded.

NEW BUS ROUTE
Factory Employees Want
BuSSeS to Go Out State St.
to City Line
MAY USE NEW ROAD
State st. Improvement Assn
Wants Buses to Run to
Neighboring Towns

Several petitions asking for bus
service out State street as far as
the city line at least were received
by the Board of Aldermen last night
and referred to the bus commit
tee. of which Alderman Albert G..
Matters is chairman, with power.
Petitions were received from 100
employees of the American Smelling
& Refining Company. 11S employees
of the United Lead Works. forty
four employees of the Hoyt Metal
Company, seventy-eight employees of
the U. S. Cartridge Company and
121 employees of the Barber AS
phalt Paving Company. These en-
ployes request a new bus route from
State and Smith streets to Wood
bridge Creek. especially during the
hours between 6 and 9 A. M. and
and p. NJ, when they are 60
ing to and from work.
The increase in the trolley fare
on Public Service cars is given as
one of the reasons for the request
for bus service. Alderman Waters
stated that other complaints were
that the present trolley service is
adequate as the cars are over
crowded and fail to stop for passen-
gers at times.
The State Street Merchants I'M
provement Association had petit
tion before the aldermen along SIM
liar lines but asked that the new bus
service be continued over the newly
completed road to Sewaren. This
road goes on to Port Reading. A
new route covering Sewaren, Port
Reading. Roosevelt and Woodbridge
would be possible, 1t is pointed out,
,hus bringing to the State street
merchants patrons who otherwise
would enter the city by way of AM
boy avenue and Smith street over
the present route.
A representative of the Public
Service Railway was present and
asked If the reason for the factory
employees action was inadequate
service. He said the cars are now
giving seven and one-half minute
service during the busy hours and
felt that the trolley company would
be willing to put on more cars If it
was deemed necessary to handle the
passengers.
Two applications for bus permits
to travel over the new road to Sc
warren and thence northward were
received and referred to the bus
committee.
A resolution was unanimously
passed authorizing the bus commit
tee to communicate with the Board
of Public Utility Commissioners in
order to get the consent of that body
to run the new bus lines from State
& Smith street north to the city line
and thence north to surrounding
towns.

TRENTON, Nov. S-New Jersey
is today engaged in eiecting the
1922. legislature and both the DEM
ocratic and Republican parties are
battling fesr control of the lower
house, the Republican hold-over
senators making impossible any
change in the G. Q. p. majority in
the senate. The Democrats, how
ever, are hoping to make gains in
the upper house and would, if thsy
elected a sufficient number of their
rartisans- in the assembly, control
the legislature on joint ballot. This
would give them the Office of state
treasurer and through that official,
majority Of the state house com
mission which consists of the gov
ernor, the state treasurer and the
state comptroller. The state house
commission handles many OF the
important state financial problems
Besides the election of legisla-
ture today the citizens of the state
are voting yes" or mo" ON a pro-
posed s14,000,0S0 bond issue for a
ten year program for improvement
and developments of the states

edonted bond issues totalling s40,-

New jerseys share in the Hudson
river New York-New Jersey tunnel
and the Delaware river Philadel-
pbia-Camden bridge projects Ad-
vocates of the institutional bond
issue declare that only by such
means can the states institutions
be rehahilitated. while opponents
oppose the referendum mainly on
account of the expense involved.
The chief issue in the legislative
election appears TO be over prohibi-
ton enforcement, the Republicans
standing by the Van Ness state pro-
hibition enforcement law which
they enacted last winter and which
does not allow jury trials of alleged
violators. and the Democrats insist
ing upon a modification of the
act to permit jury trials or the re-
peal OF the law to make way fer
one less drastic. The eyes of the
state are on Essex county which is
the pivotal point in the fight.
There efforts have been concen-
srated by the Democrats to defeat
Mrs. Jennie c. Van Ness Of Newark
introducer of the state enforcement
act. The bitter battle over enforce
n,ent of prohibition has drawn the
attention of other states to the issue
in New Jersey and a victory of the
Democrats in this state for a modi-
fication of the enforcement law,
would, il is thought in some quar-
ters, be the basis for a nation wide
move for a modification of the Vol
stead act to permit beer and light
wines as beverages.
