Lincoln's Birthday.

A day of joy, a holiday;
A day in festal colors dressed
To honor one who knew not play,
Nor ever tasted rest!
Oh, mar of sorrows and of tears,
Would we could bring to you
Back through the pathway of the
years
One touch of comfort true!
Would that your eyes might pene-
trate
The shadows in between,
Through all the clouds of war and
hate,
And mists that intervene
Into the hearts Of all the throng
OF living men to find
Your name and fame the first among
The treasures Of mankind

that il was about time to clean the

gion, brought to this city Raymond
p. White, field agent for the New
Jersey Bonus Commission. who with
the assistance of several members of
the post listened to several hundred
claims of ex-service men and their
dependents.
The greater part of the claimants
brought to the attention of the COM
mittee the hardness in payment of
the state bonus. White advised the
majority of these claimants that
there was some error in the filing of
the applications or enlistments were
made outside the state. In the lat
ter instance the survey records OF
other states would have to be secured
by the commission before the money
could be paid out.
Many cases where deceased SOL
diers dependents were not properly
reimbursed was taken up and neces-
sary papers rushed to Washington
for consideration. In cases where
allotments were cut down. 1t was
necessary to file affidavits and other
papers pertaining to the various
caSeS
The local post has been for many
weeks busy with such work. The
great amount of time consumed in
taking care of the ex-service men at
different intervals made the post take
the action of observing yesterday as

The post will meet in the city hall
on Tuesday night when plans for the
coming Armistice Day canoe will be
outlined and all arrangements fin

pPRObE STARTED
BY COMMITTEE
Chamber of Commerce to In
vestigate Island Coal
Situation

TOTTENvILLE. Oct. S:-The
committee named by the Staten
l.land Chamber of Commerce some
ti.le ago to handle the coal situation
Lave commenced negotiations with
.he railroad authorities. The COM
taittee composed of Cornelius G..
holff, president: Max Thaten, Will
lam Allen Fair, r. Lowe Mckee and
William II. Day. the secretary. are
.rying to find out why a discrimina-
ton of more than fifty cents a ton
freight should be made between
staten Island and New Jersey points.
Higher coal prices have prevailed
here and these have been laid by the
ceal dealers to the higher freight
rate that is charged on cars coming
aarQss the Arthur Kill to Staten
Island.
This committee will endeavor 20
solve the coal problem that has
faced the island for several winters.
The committee has expressed a
hope that this difference in the rates
may be adjusted through the confer
cnce now under way with the rail
authorities. If proper relief is not
found there, it is believed that the
next step will be to carry the matter
10 the attention of the Interstate
oOmmerCe COTnTilsSlOH. II diSO the
conference with the railroad officials
does not bring about satisfactory re-
.alts the Goa committee will com
tnine with the traffic committee of
tue Chamber of Commerce SO that
the. concerted efforts of the two
od.es may be applied to the situa-
tion.
l. has been estimated by the com
raittee that a saving of from seventy
cents to a dollar a ton on coal rates
viii effect a total saving of $200,00
u year to Staten Island consumers.
With the exception of two. the Tot
tenville dealers get their coal owe
tie Arthur Kill road bridge by rail.
