SOLDIER EXEMPTION OF
5000 WAS REPEALED
BY THE LEGISLATURE

Discovery has been made that the
senate committee substitute for house
bill No. 100, which is the new revenue
code, passed BY the last legislature,
repeals the exemption of 5000 that
had been granted to all former ser
vice men, Judge Reed Holloman, Of
the first district court, had ordered
that assessors in the district allow
the exemption. 1t will be necessary
now to rescind that order. Nothing
can be done TO remedy the mistake
until the next session of the leg
islature, which probably will not be
convened Until February. 1923

SUPPORT is URGED FOR INSTITU'
TIONAL BOND BILL

Senator William H. Bright, of Cape
May County, and Mayor Frederick G.
Melvin, of Cape May City, speaking at
the official opening of the Woodbine
Colony for Feeble Minded Males at
Woodbine, New Jersey, urged the peo-
pie of Cape May County to vote for the
institutional construction bond bill on
November 9Th.
at is a remarkable record of cor
omy that the State Department Of In
situations and Agencies has made"
said Senator Bright. New Jersey is
justly proud of her great institutions.
She is one of the leaders in institu-
tional management. We must support
the institutional bond bill to provide
necessary funds to complete and round
out each existing institution and to
provide for the necessary additional
institutions. 1t is one of the great
needs of our state and we must not
fall behind"
Mayor Melvin, representing the op-
posite political party, urged a favor
able vote on the bond bill as n Of
the most essential things the State Of
New Jersey could do. Eve must sup
port these institutions anyway, and it
is much cheaper and better business
to provide sufficient funds to build
when it can be done cheaply. There
is no question about the need. There
is no question but what the plan Of
fered is the best and safest one," said
Mayor Melvin.
DIR. Katherine B. Davis, former Com
missioner of Correction of the City of
New York, speaking at the graduating
exercises at the State Home for Girls
also strongly commended the institu-
tional bond bill and asked the people
of New Jersey to support it. She said
in part:
every girl who has ever had the
advantage of this school ought to urge
her parents, her father and her mother,
to vote for the institutional bond bill.
1t is a question of giving the state
enough money to build proper build
Iings in the state institutions, asschool
house here, for example. You have to
have your school scattered around in
the different cottages and in the differ
ent buildings. Now, it would be very
much better in many ways if you had
a school building, just as they have IN
the city. You could have your book
classes and your industrial classes in
a building with proper equipment.
The graduates Of this school l hope
will prevail upon their parents and
their friends to vote Yes on this issue.
That will be an example of loyalty.
There is another advantage in this,
also. in that it will give employment
to a great many people"
