Wheat BilI Is Endorsed
One Of the important actions taken
last evening was the endorsement OF
the senate bill. introduced by Senator
Roy W. Ritner providing for the Port I
land export grading system on wheat !
instead OF the federal grade now in (
use. IL was explained by 5. r. Thomp- /
son that great injustice is now working /
on oregon farmers who raise wheat
that Is sold for export. For export a
test Of IS pounds per bushel prevails
on No. wheat whereas under the fed

Al the present time wheat

'(From Overlook & Cooke Co.)
Wheat; As indicated early there
was a market change in sentiment
oyernight and in consequence buying
met less opposition. The buying,
however, appeared TO he mainly for
short account and as there was moth
ing constructive in the general news,
the advance brought out renewed
selling pressure and the market clos
ed with weak tone. There was some
talk of an export demand but no bus
mess confirmed and the decline of Sc
in gulf wheat premiums did not indi-
tate an urgent inquiry, The etreme
high point today was reached on buy
ing induced by the publication by
Broomhall OF the Argentine duties,
which the trade construed as mean
ing super tax of about lie bushel,
but which turned out to be the regu-
lar duty charged from month to
month and was really S-4c iower than
the January tax.
Shortly before the close. rumors from
the seaboard had that the Argentine
government would probably not inn
pose a super tax on wheat exports Tor
the time being. Should this prove
true. the market will, In all prohabil-
ity seek lower level to meet Argen-
4 tine competition.

PAL|SADIAN With MAYOR CADIEN
INSTRUMENTAL IN AN EFFORT
TO IMPROVE LINCOLN AVENUE

For some time past, and at frequent
intervals, the general deplorable con-
dition of the sidewalks and street of
Lincoln avenue has been the subject
of much discussion and complaint ON
the part of the property owners resid-
ing there. This question was sudden
ly brought to head last Sunday, when
Mayor Cadien, through the suggestion
of The Palisadian, personally inspect
ed the avenue and interviewed a ma
jority of the residents, who were unan-
imous in their demand to have it i'm
proved. The mayor intimated that he
was powerless to instigate action on
this matter without the aid of the
property owners and suggested that a
petition be drawn up to be signed by
them and presented to the Board of
Council for action, the expense for
such improvement to be borne by the
property owners under the assessment
plan.
The past year has seen Lincoln ave-
AAoS SPINS lioAi Pi dItltdi W
an important position in the affairs
of the borough. More than fifteen
homes have been erected and more are
under way. A large part of the au-
tomobile traffic has been diverted to
Lincoln avenue because it affords the
only direct access at this end of the
! borough from the main thoroughfare,
Anderson avenue, to the westerly out
let of the borough. The ultimate bene-
fits to be gained by the borough itself
from this street improvement will be
far greater than the immediate relief.
The petition has been prepared and
signed and will be submitted at the
next meeting of the Council Board.
Those interviewed by the mayor on
Sunday We're highly pleased with his
personal interest.

Two Ways to
Kill a Cat

Representative ex-service men from
various communities in Bergen county
who have formed an organization
known as the Ex-Service Mems Voters
League, met in the Englewood Armory
last Tuesday evening. The purpose of
the meeting was to back the candi-
dacy of Edward Lyons, Jr., of En-.
glewood for the assembly.
During the meeting it was brought
out that extreme dissatisfaction is fel,
that proper legislation and recognition
has not been accorded them. They
have, therefore, taken the matter in
their own hands and have decided to
have an ex-service man represent them
in the assembly next year.
Since the principles of the Ameli-
can Legion do not tolerate the intro.
duction of politics in the organization,
the movement is not fostered by any
ex-service mems recognized Organiza-
lions but has the support of a ma
jority of ex-service men in the county,
supporters of the movement claim

Cliffside Party
In Auto Upset

Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse Harris, of Cliff
side, and the formers brother and
sister-in-law, Mr.. and Mrs. John Har-
ris, had narrow escape Sunday morn
ing on the Hamburg turnpike, Just
above the store of Roy e. Smith, in
Smith Mills, near Butler, when the
automobile in which they were riding
went over a fifty-foot embankment and
brought up against tree about TWEEN
ty feet from the bottom No one was
hurt
The accident followed the collision
on turn of the Harris car with one
driven by Ernest Ploss, whose address
was not obtained, but whose car
license number was 1201S9 N. J. The
Harris car went about forty feet in
the highway after the collision and
then plunged over the embankment,
which served to keep the car upright.
Harris said he was crowded on the
turn by Ploss.
Swinging wide to avoid another car
on the turn known as Hubners corner
III Bloomingdale, an automobile driven
by Peter Roth, of Elizabeth, crashed
into telephone pole on the Hamburg
turnpike, breaking the pole off above
the ground. The car was wrecked. but
no one was hurt.-Record.

When Mr.. Pearson lost himself in
his denunciation, Mayor Cadien calmly
took the floor and told of the people
who bought lots in West Grantwood at
$132 per lot and even as low as
$50, who it seemed expected more for
their money than people who bought
improved property at from $500 per
lot up. The Mayor said that was the
reason the lots were sold cheaply be-
cause the land slopes in all directions
and is virtually in a swamp.
Mr.. Cadien stated that action had
been taken by the local Council Board
number of times endeavoring to get
Fort Lee to lay pipe so that the sur
face and sewer waters could be taken
care of, but the Fort Lee council had
not as yet taken action.
The Mayors attitude was in marked
contrast to that of his critics and it
is believed that he lost nothing in the
exchange.
Misses Meyer and Nadler, candi-
dates for the Council Board, also
spoke.
Mr.. Velsey also spoke on matters of
the Board of Education
1t was an excellent meeting-a reg
ulation, old-fashioned, New England,
