ROAD RUILn|NG
CAUSES BOOM
Production of Sand and Grav-
ell in State is Greatly
Increased

TRENTON. Aug. 23:-The great
road building program which New
Jersey has been carrying on for the
past two years is reflected in the
figures for the production of sand
and gravel in the state during 1921
which have just been tabulated by
Assistant State Geologist w. M.
Twitchell. These are gathered by
the Department of Conservation and
Development in cooperation with
the United States Geological Survey.
Although h total production and
value of all sands and gravels were
lower than those of several preced-
ing years, paving. or road-making
sand made an increase of IL per
cent in production and 5 per cent in
value over 1920. the previous high
year. Gravel used in highway con
struction also showed an advance.
The largest share of these New Jer-
sey products are used within the
state.
A total of 3,56S,7S0 short tons of
sand and gravel were produced in
New Jersey last year valued at So
436,29S. The corresponding figures
for 1920 were 4,616,444 short tons
valued at S~4.33O,S44. Sand and
gravel production il one of the lead
ing mining industries of the state
and is the most widely distributed.
Pits are found in sixteen out of the
twenty-one counties from Sussex to
Cape May; Burlington, Cumberland,
and Middlesex county lead in the
number of producers in the order
named.
The 1921 figures for the division
within the group are as follows:
Building sand Concrete and NOR
tar), 1,426,327 short tons valued at
$627,232; paving, n road making
sand, 632,36S short ton valued at
$345,376: molding sand, 241,5S7
short tons valued at $306, 200; glass

DOPE IS UPSET
At So. ANB0Y
Democrats Will Have Much to
Talk Out at Meeting To-
morrow Night

SOUTH AMBOY, Aug. 23-There
Will be a regular meeting of the
South Amboy Democratic Club to-
morrow night at the clubrooms in
Welsh's Hall and it is predicted
that a large crowd will be on hand.
Recent developments in the poll
tical situation have upset all the
dope and the local leaders are sit
ting down and wondering what will
happen next. The endorsement of
ID. G. Chase by the various factions
Of the Republican party and the
withdrawal of Hackett and Disbrow
Hand the entry of Downs into the
race in the second ward nave been
some of the sensations during the
past week and no one will attempt
to prophesy what will happen next.
Interest is at a white heat and old
timers say that there has never been
so much interest in politics display
ed as there is this year. The old tax
rate of $6.06 has kept the city in a
constant turmoil and arguments
have been many and varied as to
who is and who is not responsible
for the situation.
The speakers at the Democratic
Club will be Assistant Prosecutor
John E.. Toolan and Klemmer Kali
tiessen. president of the George S.
Silzer Club of New Brunswick.
Both of these men are popular in
Amboy and their many friends will
be on hand to hear them.
The outing committee will have
an interesting report to make and
all local Democrats are urged to at
tend this meeting.

CONGRESS- NEEDS WHIP

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-Dis-
cipllne in the G. O. z. has gone
to the dogs. Republican leaders in
congress are looking round for a
new Simon Legree who ear whip
obstreperous congressman into line
The trouble is that so many states
men are back home fixing their po-
litical fences and building cyclone
cellars for November that party
leaders can't get a quorum in the
House.
Even the official whose duty it is
to round them up-a party ofnclal
called the whip-jumped the reser-
walton himself.
When the House recoHvened after
it's recent recess there was no quo
rum. And even Harold Knutson of
Minnesota. the G.. O.. p. whip, was
delinquent. .
Immediately there was talk of
ousting him and naming a new whip.
Sidney Anderson, also of Minnesota,
was suggested.
Nothing doing" said Anderson.
Anderson felt he couldn't disci-
pline others when
i've got to go out TO Indiana in a
day or two," he said, land l think
I'll just go on put home while I'M
about it. Anyway. there's nothing
we can do here in a legislative way
that will help u chances in No
vember. We may as veil go home
and look after our w campaigns.
That's the way four-f1fths of
House members feel about it. They
used to toe the mark when the whip
cracked the party lash. But now
they fear the folks at home more
than they do party discipline.
THE party can take care of itself
in Washington" they say. Were
in Washington" they say. We've
| got our own worries back home"
Leaders say the House has never
been so split as it is now over i'm
portant legislation Meanwhile
statesmen's minds are not on the job
| of legislating. They're more afraid
of the whip the voters will WELD
Nov. Z. than the G. O. p. whip-even
If the leaders can find somebody to
take the lob.

RECORD PUSHES
+. R. ISSUES
Carries Campaign Against
FreIinghuySen to Red
Bank

RED BANK, Aug. 23.-George L.
Record carried his campaign against
Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen for
the Republican nomination for
United States Senator into Red Bank
last night. After denouncing FIRE.
linghuysen as the representative of
the powerful railroad trust Record
went on to show how he believed the
government might acquire the rail-
roads at a comparatively samll cost
and make of them a valuable asset.
He concluded his speech with this
summary:
1T is sometimes urged as an ar
gument against the public owner
ship of railroads that it will involve
a financial transaction which the
government is not equipped TO carry
out. Such an argument might have
had some weight with the public
prior to the war, but after our ex-
p%erience in the war. it is shown to
be without any strength. We spent
some twenty-five billions of dollars
in the World War for transportation
and for various kinds of property
and munitions of war, which were
absolutely destroyed. Certainly af-
ter that experience we need not be
"a aid to incur whatever debt may
be necessary to acquire the rail-
roads. AS against the debt, we
would have an assets which world
be continually increasing in value
with the lapse of the year. The to-
tai par value of the securities of the
railroads does no. exceed nineteen
billions of dollars. The market value
of those securities is about twelve
millions Of dollars. OF this amount
the greater pa2t is represented by
bonds. and If tie railroads were &C
quired by the government they
would be acquired subject to the
outstanding bonds, which would be
paid for at maturity from the pro-
ceeds Of a sinking fund made up out
of earnings
ut is thus plain that four OF five
billions of dollars of government
bonds would be all that would be
required to take over the railroads
if they were acquired upon a fair
basis. 1t would be perfectly easy to
force the railroads to accept such
fair compensation. If they refused
to sell out voluntarily. the govern
ment could acquire a railroad from
New York to Chicago either by con-
demnation or by purchase of a con-
trolling interest of the stock in the
market. and oncs possessed of that
road, it would be an asy matter to
force the other roads into prompt
surrender to the governments terms.
THE task therefore of taking over

At CONFERENCE
Meet at Trenton to Plan for
Primary Battle Another
Session is Called

TRENTON, Aug. ga Republic
can conference of lie various coun-
ty chairmen was held behind closed
doors here yesterday at the quarters
of the Republican Club for the pur-
pose of discussing definite plans for
t. coming primary battle for United
States senator and governor. The
session was called by former Gov
ernor Stokes, Republican state chair
man Because of the 81 attend
ance, very little work was accom-
plished. Eight of the twenty-one
members were in attendance.
Because of this fact. it was decid-
ed to call another meeting in two
weeks, at which time cve4 G.. O. p.
county chairman is supposed to have
prepared a detailed report concern
ing the political situation in each
subdivision of the state. The re-
port. it is understood, will also touch
upon the dominant party issues on
which the battle will be waged. Gov
ernor Stokes sa | he hopes for a
larger attendance at the next meet
ing than that of yesterday.
Departing from the usual custom
of years standing, the conterees de-
cided Immediately to map 1t an
itinerary for Senator Frelinghuysen.
This will take in the planning of a
definite campaign for the senior SEN
ator who is seeking denomination
against George l.. Record, his rival,
OF Jersey City. Heretofore, this
phase of prediction work was al
lowed to remain undone until after
the primary battle Judging from
this, the leaders entertain very lit
tile anxiety with respects to the OPP
position from the Record support
ers.

were: Louis ~. Donnelly, Atlantic;

HARDING MAY
HONOR LEGION
May be Guest of Honor at Big
Convention at New
Orleans

NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. 23
(By The Associated Press).-"The
Crescent City" is preparing to IN
terrain the largest gathering in its
history when 100000 members OF
tho American Legion and other VS.
itors come to the Legion's national
convention here, October 1920.
With the tentative acceptance of
the convention invitation by Prcsi-
dent Harding and General Pershlng,
and the definite acceptance of Major
General John A.. Lejeune, comman-
dant of the United States Marine
Corps, Samuel Gompers. president
of the American Federation of La
Dor, and Kenesaw Mountain Lands,
commissioner of baseball, the Legion
meeting will assume national impor-
lance. Convention officials also ex-
pect to entertain a famous marshal
of France and other world war no:a-
bles. Prominent among the dis
tineuished guests will be twenty-
five wearers of tho congressional
medal of honor, the highest award
for bravery made by the United
States.
President Harding has written
convention headquarters that he will
come to New Orleans if the pressd IRE
of public affairs does not interfere
and a similar message has been 1e-
ceived from General Pershing, who
led the Legion men in France. and
who was a guest at their national
gathering in Kansas City last year.
The visit Of General Lejeune will
be of especial interest to legionnaires
since the Marine Corps leader is a
native of Louisiana and was one of
the most popular commanding gem
erals in the American Expeditionary
Forces. The presence of Mr.. Com
pers at the convention is expected to
develop closer relations between the
Legion and organized labor. Judge
Lands is the father of a former ser
vice man and has spoken at LeTiCr
gatherings in all parts of the
country.
In preparation for the visit of the
thousands of former service men,
the convention committee has pre-
pared an elaborate program of en-
tertainment. Convention sessions
will be held only in the mornings,
enabling delegates and visitors to
participate in the festivities the re-
mainder of the day.
The first American Legion Olym-
pic meet will be held at the con-
vention.
