END CROSSINGS

at Central R. R. Office
Next Monday
FOR UTILITY COMMISSION
Understood That Union Sta

as Drawn Up
FOR UTILITY COMMISSION

Preliminary plans for the elimina-
ton of grade crossings through this

lost in completing them.
According to the city attorney
who says he received his informa-
ton from the railroad company and
the Public Utility Commission engi-
neer, the plans will not show a
union station, but will show that the
tracks are to be depressed and the
streets to be carried over them on
bridges.

US. Justice Denies are
Plea Of Utility Board

hundred thousand and a million
people daily are paying the IN
creased fare, L. Edward Hermann,
counsel for the utility commission
ers, stated in his appeal to the
court.
1--WE claim that the United States
district court exceeded its authority;
that its action was the fixing of a
rate which is a power not possessed
by the court, and that in it's action
it indirectly ties the hands OF the
Board of Public Utilities Commits
sioners, that being the only agency
with the power to fix rates. asserted
Mr.. Hermann.
1--WE claim that the decision of the
district court should be set aside
particularly because the court fixed
a rate for the transfer riders which
was less than that fixed by the board
and imposed an additional charge
against all other riders" continued
Mr.. Hermann.
The appeal to Justice Pitney was
presented in Justice Pitney's cham
bers by l.. Edward Hermann, coun-
sci for the board and Attorney Cen
eral McCran.

Action To Create Work
For Unemployed Here
Put A Man To Work On That
Job To Aid Unemployment

Conduct a fall cleanup of your city and home and
at the same time create work for the unemployed.
This is the idea unanimously decided upon last
night by the mayors committed on unemployment at
its first meeting. Create work. There is plenty to be
done about the house, store or office which can keep
a man busy. Notify the Federal, State, Municipal EN-
ployment Bureau at the corner of Jefferson street and
New Brunswick avenue and a man will be furnished at
once.
1t is not necessary to make a personal visit to the
employment Office. Merely telephone 1929 and tell
the one who answers the phone that you want a man.
Give your address and regardless of whether you are a
storekeeper, an office manager or a housekeeper the
assistance you seek will apply shortly at your place.
The industries cannot be expected to create work
enough to employ all of the unemployed at full time
just at present. AS a means of tiding over these unem-
ployed until steady work can be secured odd jobs can
be found for them in which they can do various kinds
of work by the day.

Z CHARGES Of
ASSAULT MADE
Both Lagonia and Christian
sen Charge Assault at Po-
lice Court Hearing

Eugene Lagonia. forty years old.
Of AIS Lawton place. is held for the
grand jury under $500 bail as the
result of a fracas occurring yester-
day, the circumstances in which
were aired last night before Record
er Harold E. Pickersgill in the police
court. Lagonia is charged with as
sault and battery by Niels Christian
sen, of 326 Elm street. who charges
that the defendant struck him over
the head with a weapon resembling
a policeman's billy.
David WilentZ represents Chris
Hansen and Jacob Il. Klein is attor-
ney for Lagonia. Counter charges
of assault were made against Mr..
Christiansen's son Arthur last night,
and it is thought that other charges
will be lodged. Warrants for Arthur S
arrest have been issued alleging
three assaults.
In the course of the testimony last
night the following facts were
brought to light:
A dance celebrating an Italian
wedding was being held in Wash
ington hall Sunday night and dur
ing the dance trouble was caused
by a crowd of young men who,
it is said, attempted TO enter the
dance hall. A bottle was thrown
and the fourteen year old son of
Mr.. Lagonia was hit in the eye by
the missile. Mr.. Christiansen's son
Arthur is accused by the Lagonia
family OF throwing the bottle.
No mention of the affair was
made to the authorities of the trou-
BILE and no complaint against Ar
thur Christensen was made, but
yesterday, according to the charges
made. Niels Christensen received a
telephone call from Mr.. Lagonia in
forming him that the Lagonia fam
lily was about to move and asking
him if his truck could do the haul
ing. When Christensen consent
ed, he says, the next question asked
was whether he himself or his son
would come TO superintend the
work.
Both father and son went out on
the job and when they arrived az
the Lagonia home. Mr.. Lagonia's
s~ister-in-law is declared TO have
called out, Here is the man that
hit your boy with the bottle! The
elder Christensen then shouted to
his son, This is a murder job! Get
OuI- III the t4Suln6 AdN0S VI"
Christensen was struck over the
head with the billy and nearly laid
out, according to his testimony.
The Christensen party retreat
ed in the direction of the truck at
the curb, with the attack continu-
ing in active style. it is charged.
An attempt to start the truck was
thwarted for while and blows were
exchanged on both sides. The sis
ter-in-law is said to have tried to
climb on the truck and was pulled
off as the machine got under way.
The woman was bruised by her fall
and the incident was the basis of
the assault charge made against Mr..
Chistiansen. He himself said he
was struck as he climbed on the
machine.
Niels Christensen. through Mr..
Wilentz, maintains that the whole
affair was a frame up and that
the Lagonia family had no inten-
ton of moving, but lured him there
to beat him up. Mr.. Klein main
tains that the elSer Christensen
was struck by mistake. The charges
against Arthur. warrants for whom
are out. ellege three assaults upon
Lagonia's son, his sister-in-law and
his brother.
