Club Event at Shore
lRy Evening News stan Correspondent

lBy Evening News stan Correspondent
NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. 5.-Re-
publican cohorts. one hundred and
fifty in number. were entertained at
| q shore dinner at Soldiers Beach
last night under the auspices of the
Midtown Republican Club. Those
! present reported a very enjoyable
time. Two orchestras and several
speakers furnished a comprehensive
program for the occasion.
The principal speaker of the eve
ming was Senator William B.
Mackay, Jr., of Bergen county. who
talked on the necessity for organiZa-
ton if results are to be obtained and
the party kept together. Senator
Mackay, who announced that he
would be a candidate in the guberna-
torial primaries next year, attacked
the grating conditions said to exist
in politics today. The speaker cited
several cases that had come to his
knowledge. where appearances re-
vealed crookedness.
One instance given happened in
Hudson county, when just before the
general election three hundred men
, were assigned to duty on the play
ground commission of the county.
Under a Republican administra-
ton, the senator said. five men had
been deemed sufficient to care for
the Fairgrounds, but that the Dem
ocrats had placed three hundred
faithful followers on the payroll of
the playground department.
The senator also attacked the
Hudson county grand juries drawn
he remarked, from the county and
"a s,; Ie- 1t, ,fi
cally impossible to secure indict-
ments against other officials for mall
teasance in office of other offenses.
An additional instance given was
the Hoboken police quartet who are
said to do nothing but travel around
to meetings and sing. For these
police duties. the senator said. the
musical cops received $2.400 a year.
Mrs. Whitney Oliver. of Perth
Amboy, was also a speaker at the
meeting, addressing her remarks
principally to the women. Mrs. OIL
liver asked their cooperation both
at the primaries and at the general
elections and stressed the necessity
for them to attend the pre-primary
meetings in order that they may
choose the best candidates for the
posts, regardless of their political
aIIlllatlOnS.
Morgan Larson, a candidate for
nomination for the state senate. was
the last speaker on the program. His
talk made an excellent impression 1t
is said and was very favorably re-
ceived by those present. Mr.. Larson's S
address was merely along general
lines much of it humorous vein.
The candidate made no declaration of
policy in the event of election re-
marking that he would inform his
hearers as to his position at the
meeting to be held in Milltown. Au-
gust 16.
County candidates present at the
affair included Morgan Larson, Perth
Amboy: Albert Appleby, of Old
Bridge; James A. Edgar. of Highland
Park, and Mayor Morrison. of New
Brunswick; Robert Vandenbergh'
George S. Applegate. of South River;
! William Hanna. William Stoted OF

| Brunswick.

churches and clubs are doing admir-
able, necessary and valuable work,
but in the very nature of things there
are certain to be overlapping and
duplication. A community council
would eliminate this.
1t sometimes happens that an or
ganization in its enthusiasm forgets
that its function is the welfare of
the community as a whole, and un-
healthy rivalry arises. Not that we
do not need competition Of a friendly
sort among these groups, because we
do; but unwholesome rivalry is dead
ening. A community council could
insure us against this sort of thing.
There Iare problems sconfronting
us from time to time which are too
great for any one group to handle.
The present unemployment situation,
which will increase in magnitude as
the winter wears on, is an example
of this. Here is a community prob
lem which the whole city must tackle
and in some way solve. 1t is raw
material for a community council.
AS Christmas approaches we should
arrange for a community Christmas
festival. Would not this season,
when the spirit of cooperation and
peace on earth among men, of good
will, is abroad, be fitting time to
launch the Bozeman Community
Council? / am in favor of the idea.
Yours sincerely,
BYRLE J. OSBORNE,
Rector of st. James Church.
