BETTER POSTAL SERVICE
URGED At CONVENTION

Before introducing the next
speaker, the POSTMASTER said he
could not understand how the gov
eminent during the war could pass
bills giving men on tug boats back
pay, and yet could not pass laws
giving the letter carriers a fair
wage .
Harry ]. knight. postmaster of
Camden, spoke briefly on his asso-
Citations with the letter carriers and
told of the social conditions that
exist in his office between the men.
Although his time would oon be out
he would always be ready to serve
the men when called upon.
Charles b. Duffy. national treas
urer, told of the conditions as they
exist today and urged that a court
Re formed by the government where
complaints of the carriers might be
heard and justice given.
Peter j. Walters, president OF
Branch SO, N. A. l.. c., New York.
was of the opinion that all men who
had left the service during the war
for more money elsewhere so that
| their families might live, should be
| reinstated upon request He also
| urged hat the men be given a holi-
day for each Sunday or holiday they
work.
C.. Eugene Doyle, chairman Of the
| executive board, thanked the dele
gates for again electing him to the
executive board and said that he
believed that within a short time
the men would be paid $4,000 a
year.
At this point POSTMASTER Pick
ersgill paid high tribute to Arthur
Hope, who died about two years
ago.
Clarence Stinson, state secretary.
gave a general statement of condi-
! tons and was OF the opinion that
the men will receive square deal
from the new postmaster general.
He urged the men not to abuse the
compensation law.
Richard +. White, postmaster of
this city, was the next speaker. Mr..
White in a short address told the
men that he had yet several years
to serve in the lost p~ostofice before
his time is out and that during that
period he will do everything in his
power to better the service and TO
aid the letter carriers.
John Pfeiffer, treasurer of the
Chamber of Commerce, was the last
speaker. He spoke on Perth Amboy
as a city and it's future. Some of
the dearest friends ! have in Perth
Amboy are members of this associa-
tion," said Mr.. Pfeiffer. Mr.. Pfeiffer
in closing his address spoke of Mr..
Hope as being a martyr to his duty.
With only one or two exceptions
every speaker had a harsh word to
say against former Postmaster Cen
eral Burleson. Many thought he
should remain in Germany where he
Is now.

MENTION GERAN FOR
DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR
Continued from page y

ca
nected with the State Boxing Com.
mission.
The South Jersey leaders may
support some middle county man
like State Banking and Insurance
Commissioner William Z. Tuttlef
Jr., of Union. or United States Dis
trict Attorney Elmer II. Geran. Of
Monmouth. But it goes without
saying that the man who can claim
the large Democratic vote of Hud~
scu county in the primary will have
an excellent lever with which II
land the nomination. !
All this. of course, Is pleasing to
the Republicans who hear 1t. They
are naturally alarmed to learn that
politicians In Hudson county claim
that they can give the next Demo-
cratic candidate $4,000 or mora
plurality, but the friends of State
Senator William N. Runyon say il
will be. needed to defeat the Union
county senator. More and more IL
looks like Runyon for the Republi.
can nomination, say these G. o. p,
w~iseacres. and they claim the Dem.
ocrats will have to poll some" ma
jority to land their candidate ahead
of him. 1t 10 a known fact that the
Democrats fear the possibility of the
Runyon candidacy in the next fight
for governor more than that of any
other man the Republicans could
offer the voters of the state. He is
we'll e%ntrenched in every direction
and many of their leaders freely adj
NIT his strength even at this early
day.
Meanwhile Governor Edwards
continues to retain the esteem per-
sonally of the Democratic leaders
in various counties. despite the dis
content which may be heard over
distribution of patronage. They rec
ognize in the present titular leader
of their party a fighter of the first
rank, a mar whom they would be
glad to support for United States
Senator next year when the time to
discuss that party question arises.
The Republicans also have reason
to respect the governors punch"
and it may be said that he has the
knack of opposing and at the same
time keeping their friendship to an
unusual degree.
