SPOTLIGHTS

Having his own mines in Kentucky
and his own railrad in Ohio and
Michigan has become a little incon-
venient to Henry Ford when the L.
& n. has to be the connecting link
and has refused to extend its service
by reason of present condition of its
rolling stock. The State Fuel Ad-
ministrator has asked for conference
at Louisville between Ford represen-
'tatives and L. & N. representatives
with a possible plan that the Ford Mo
tor Company repair the rolling stock
in order that their own business may
mot suffer hindrance.
The loss OF a good school teacher
is what Pine Bluff, Ark, can soon ex-
pect and not SO much by marriage
though that can be expected, but be-
cause the little school mann, Edith
Mae Patterson had such pretty face,
that it won her first of all state prize
of $1,000 and then a $500 national
prize. Now she is entered in an in
ternational contest and whether it gets
her a prize, she has already had $500
proposals of marriage, though for this
she says she will wait for the right
man. Miss Patterson claims school
teaching to still be her chief interest
but will it remain so when she views
the gauntlet of almost certain and
numerous screen offers?

No Way to Tell II Courtney Was

Saugatuck, Conn, June Sooner
Phelan today began his inquiry into
the circumstances of Captain Joseph

body was SO badly mangled as to con-

death. The coroner fixed the time

death at o'clock this afternoon.

Disguised Democrats

To the Democrats of Salem County:
What do you think of the bungling
mess that your Governor has recently
made in his political Juggling with
the Judgeship of Salem County?
The Governor, it was recently an
%nounced, would seek the nomination
for U. s.. Senator. Well, let him
seek. That won't hurt him, but who
will he find to help him in Salem
County? Surely not Henry Burt
Ware, nor his friends. Surely not
Daniel V. Summerill, Jr., nor his
friends. Surely not the Democratic
County Executive Committee, whom
he did not consult. Of course, this
could be excused, because the Com
mittee Chairman has not called a
meeting since they organized. Is it
any wonder the Governor turns the
hip-fiop.
Personally, l believe the present
type of Democracy, and under its
present leadership, is not only in Sa-
lem County, but in the State of New
Jersey to be doomed to an overwhelm-
ing defeat. Politics is a great game,
but unless it is played according to
the party rules, it cannot long survive.
