an Evening News reporter by John

give the porter an account of the
meeting OF the post held Monday
night. Mr.. Benning stated that
committee had been appointed by the
post to investigate the condition at
the hospital in regard to the treat
ment of legion members, and ex-
planned what the charges were.
The hospital authorities declare
that Mr.. Benning has signed state
ment repudiating what he told the
reporter and that his statement was
to have been forwarded to the
Evening News for publication. The
Evening News has not vet received
the statement but will be very glad

PROBES
BONUS ISSUES
Local Post Wants Transac.
tionS of Louis Y. SoSin
Investigated at Once

The American Legion after hear
ing a report from their commander,
William Thompson, of the manner
in which one of their members had
been charging ex-service men for
services rendered them in securing
their state bonus and victory med
ais, unanimously went on record as
favoring the appointment of an in
vestigating committee to go thor
| oughly into this matter, and report
| back to the local post so that final
disposition might be made of the
case. The member against whom
| the accusations are made is Louis Y.
Sosin, a local attorney, and an active
member of the post who desired the
position of commander at this year S
election.
Commander Thompson said he
did not like to bring such matter
before the post, but things had gone
so far that reports had been circu-
lated that the American Legion was
charging for this service after hav-
ing promised all ex-service men to
get their state bonus free of charge
and he thought it only right that
everyone should know that it was
not the legion that was charging,
but private individual who had
not been authorized to do so and
was doing it without the knowledge
or consent of the post.
The committee named to investi-
gate this matter consists of John
Hanson, Jr., chairman, Herbert
Rankin, Ronald Kleckner. Michael G.
Turk and Holger Holm. There were
about sixty legion members present
and all voted in favor of the investi-
cation. Mr.. Sosin was not at the
meeting.
Delegates to the convention to be
held in Asbury Park. September 15-
II were selected. they being Past
Commander Nathaniel w. Pierce,
Holger Holm, John Hanson. Jr.' Ma
than Goldberger, Herbert Rankin
and Elmer Larson. Commander
Thompson also contemplates attend
ing.
Considerable discussion was held
upon the question of the legion en-
tering politics-that is as far as ma
tional questions such as the federal
bonus is concerned. Among those
speaking on this subject were past
Commander Pierce, John Hanson
Jr., Ronald Kleckner and David
Lucas. They pointed out that the
legion. in order to get results, should
line themselves up with the men who
are for the big issues which are faV-
orable to the legion.

STREET
BUS ROUTE IS
UNDER PROTEST
Bus Owners Before Board of
Aldermen Asking New Route
be Eliminated
LACK OF PASSENGERS
New Route Was Established
at Request of State St.
Merchants Association

Owing to the lack of sufficient
passengers in the auto busSes going
out State street to make the trips
paying proposition a delegation of
bus owners appeared before the al
dermen last night and asked that
the recently established State street
Ioute be eliminated. According to
the bus owners the cars do not pick
up many passengers going over this
route and they lose large number
of persons who would board the car
IL it continued out Smith street
from the ferry.
This new route was established at
the request of the State Street Mer-
chants Association and provided
that every other bus running in the
city go over this route while the
others will continue over the more
direct line in and out of the city.
1t was expected that many would
use the new service, but the bus
owners report that passengers are
few and far between.
The aldermen told the bus owners
to get together with the State Street
Merchants Association and see II
some understanding could not be
reached and the proposition put up
to the aldermen at their regular
meeting next Monday night.
The bus owners are represented
by Assistant Prosecutor John f..
Toolan. who has pointed out that
these automobiles which are forced
to go over the State street route are
not only losing business but persons
wishing to get a bus are forced to
wait longer now than formerly.
When the State street route was put
through, Alderman John J. Clark
made a fight for it's being continued
to Hall avenue. At present the route
goes only as far as Broad street.
This shorter route was satisfactory
to members of the Stat Street I'M
pruvement Association, according to
Alderman Albert G. Waters, chair
man of the bus committee, who
drew up the new route.

TRENTON, Aug. 13.-Notice has
just been given by Judge Rellstab
that next Thursday when the Public
Service Railway Company's ten-cent
fare suit is called in the United
States District Court it will have to
be adjourned to a date after Septem
ber /. Circuit Court Judge Victor
Wooley is spending his vacation in
Maine and will not return until Sep
tember /. AS the federal statute
under which the suit was brought
requires three judges to sit, the case
cannot go on next Thursday. Judge
Rellstab has notified Attorney Cen
eral McCran for the state and coun-
sci for the Public Service Company.
Under the order signed by Judge
Re1lstab making next Thursday the
return day, the case will be called.
but will be Immediately adjourned
to O date early in September to be
decided upon at that time. Attorney
General McCran received the notice
late yesterday afternoon following
his conference with l.. Edward
Hermann, counsel for the Utility
Commission, on the plan of defend
ing the action. Mr.. McCran at once
notified Governor Edwards and Mr..
Hermann.
1--WE would have been all ready to
go ahead next Thursday" said the
attorney general, land we did not
seek a postponement. The change
was made by the court itself"
Attorney General McCran and Mr..
Hermann both refused to discuss
the conference or what plan of action
had been selected. They said they
could not make public their plans in
advance.
1t is understood. however, that
they discussed the question of filing
a demurrer to the bill of the Public
course that may be followed, nam ely,
to file an answering bill and afli-
davits.
A demurrer attacks the plaintiff
with the claim that he has no case
against the defendant. 1t says, in
effect, "even though all your allega-
tions are true, they do not constitute
an action against me-"
In the present case a demurrer,
If filed, would hold that the Public
Service Railway Company has no
valid case against the Utility Com
mission and the state and the suit
would first be fought out on that
issue. OF course if the three judges
sustained the demurrer the Public
Service Company would be out of
court, having nothing to stand on.
On the other hand if the decision
was against the demurrer then the
allegations in the bill of complaint
would come up. The defendants
would then file their answer and the
case would be threshed out on the
main issue.

o'clock, resulting in one man being
killed and another painfully stabbed

Brunswick this morning, where he
will be held until bail is furnished.
According to Roman, the man who
was shot dead was John Gallegas
a Gautemalean, and the one who did
the shooting was Angelo Martinez
of similar nationality. Martinez
who gave himself up to the police
Immediately after the shooting and
was later removed to the hospital
was said to be doing well at that
institution this morning.
1t was thought at first that the
fight might have resulted from a
disagreement over woman. but the
authorities have decided that the
theft Of Martinez's diamond and his
accusal of Gallegas being a thief was
the cause of the battle. Martinez is
being guarded day and night while
in the hospital. When his condition
allows he will be removed to the
county Jail.
Walter j. Rielley has been retain
ed by Martinez as his attorney 70
represent him in court when the case
comes up for trial. A manslaughter
charge has been made against Mar

ents in Chrome, Mrs. Stropkies re-
fuses to allow the operation. DR..
Frank C. Henry was to operate this
morning, but the woman steadily re-
fuses TO give her consent and the
hospital authorities are in something
of a quandary.
John Stropkies, the husband, is
he'd without bail and should tne bull
let prove fatal. he will be charged
with murder. The charge at present
against him is atrJ";ous assault and
battery with intent to kill.

ton is regarded as serious.
