RAISE POINT Of
LAW HERE OVER
JUSTICE OFFICE
County Attorney Declares Office Va
cant When Vance Fails TO Quail
fy; Says He Didn't Get
His Certificate

Pointing out that j. ID. Vance, JUS
tice OF the peace-elect, failed to
qualify within the prescribed time,
Ben Goff. county attorney today de-
clared that the judicial office held
by NJ. Il. Bunnel during the past
tNo terms Is vacant
Whether or not Mr.. Vance is yet
eligible to qualify is the question
that must be decided. County Attor
ney Goff declares that the law pro
vides that justices of the peace must
qualify on the second Monday in
January and take office within ten
days thereafter. or 20 days after re.
ceiying notice Of election.
"No Notice"-vancc.
Mr.. Vance declared while in the
city this week that he had not rec
ceived notice or certificate OF
election. Asked II the justice of the
peace-elect had been supplied with
a certificate Of election. Henry Min
nett, Secretary OF the Grady County
election board, replied: Il am sure
that | mailed a certificate of cleo
tion to Mr.. Vance. Having mailed
several certificates. do not remem
ber that particular one. 1t is posi-
BILE, but not probable, that Mr.
Vance's certificate was not mailed
to him."
Whether or not his failure to re-
ceive certificate of election is a
hitch strong enough to overpower
the other provisions of the law is
the question to be decided. Action
by the board of county commission
ers is expected to be taken at the
monthly meeting of the board here
next Monday IL the office is official
ly declared vacant, the law provides
that an appointment to fill the va
cancy must be made by the board
Of county commissioners.
BunneII viii Apply.
NJ E. Bunnel, justice of the peace
here during the past two terms,
will be an applicant for the Office if
the commissioners declare the Of
flee vacant, stated yesterday A peti-
ton signed by number of tnxpay-
ers and asking that the board ap-
point Justice Bunnell to the office
has been circulated. 1t was filed
with the county clerk yesterday.
Justice Bunnell continued in the
office during the past term when H
L. Grigsby failed to qualify as his
successor.
The question of whether or not
the office. is vacant does not involve
the office of Justice of the Peace
Moore who was elected in the No
vember general election and whe
qualified within the time prescribed
by law.

Warehouse Bill Advanced

Barring unforeseen Developments,
the farm products warehouse bill
will be passed by the senate in its
original form, including a provision
for appropriating $2,OOO,000 except
that the emergency clause will be
eliminated.
After the hottest debates, the most
profound political and parliamentary
tactics and the greatest number OF
roll calls recorded during the eighth
session of the senate, so far which
kept the upper house in session until
Z o'clock Tuesday evening, the bill
was passed to cngrossment and third

oIasser Amendment is Killed.

It is now past the amendment
stage. Whatever changes are made
in the proposed law must be made by
the house of representatives. The
Glasser amendment, the most tho
roughly discussed single section of a
bill which has gone the rounds thus
far in the session would have killed
the $2,COO,OOO appropriation the bill
authorizes.
But the senate voted the Glasser
amendment down by vote of rs to
IS and then approved section II,
which contains the appropriation
clause.
A poor compound adjective . is
rerve-racking when it is applied to
the procedure Of the afternoon
A number of senatos might have
been in physical fight, if their state
following the parliamentary row had
been taken as a criterion and basis
for speculation.
CordelI Rallies and Wins
Several times, Harry B. Cordell
general of the warehouse forces, gave
his cause up for lost, but he rallied
each time, apparently being in al
corners Of the senate at the same
time, running to patch revetment
here, replace sand bag on top Of
a barricade there and mount to thu
fire-step to plug hole in his from
line trench further along.
The first roll call was taken on the
Glasser amendment. Senators vot
ing to adopt the amendment were
Briggs (R), Brown (R), Cornet
(R). Davidson O), Durant (R)
Fleming (D), Frye (R). Glasser (R)
Harvey (R), Honer (R), Ingrahar

The amendment having lost, tn
next two sections were passed owe
quickly and then R. l.. Davidson {

of 1918 and 1920 allowing fourteen

The lightweights are scheduled for

Tender is unaccustomed. The Phil

VS.. MATAWAN
Teams Meet on MataWan
Court Tonight -Srong
Lineups for Contest

Manager John Baumann's Sayre-
VILE Big Five combination will travel
to Matawan tonight where they will
engage in their first court contest OF
the season which is likewise the first
game on the schedule of Manager
jay Shaw's borough representative
team. The game will be played on
Geran's hall court and viii start
promptly at 9:15 o'clock.
1t is possible that a number OF To-
cal basketball fans will travel 10
Matawan to witness this game due
to the fact that FREDDY" Glochau,
one of Perth Amboy's leading bas-
ketball tossers will perform with the
visiting combination.
The probable lineup of the teams
for this game will be as follows:
Matawan S~ayreville
Davis Sutton
Manuel Glochau
forwards
Tassini Rhatican
center
Lyle Fitzpatrick
Leary Eppinger
guards
The two teams have worked hard
in preparation for this game, so as
to be credited with a win in the
opening game. Although the Sayre-
Vile team appears to be the strong
est on paper, Manager Shaw's team
has an edge inasmuch as his players
are on their home court. Everyone
who turns out for this game is bound
to witness a hard fought game.
