POLISH SINGING SOCIETY
TAKES ISSUE WITH SHEEHY

The st. Cecilia Singing Society
takes issue with the denial made In
behalf of John X. Sheehy, Democra-
tic candidate for mayor, In connec-
tion with the incident of mispro-
nounced names at the thrift exer-
cises held in the high h O some
time age in the following state
ment:
10 Whom 1t May Concern:
The undersigned, members of the
Singing Society "St. Cecilia" who
were present 1t the thrift exercises"
held in the. auditorium of the Perth
Amboy High School on the evening
o. December 20, 1921, wish to take
exception to the statement published
Saturday. denying that Mr.. Sheehy
at n time during the evening, by
word or act, tended to belittle or
embarrass the children of st.
Stephens.
Because of the undisputed fact
that we occupied seats on the stage,
and because of the fact that we
have rendered vocal selections on
the occasion above mentioned, we
feel absolutely certain that We have
been situated close enough to Mr..
Sheehy to hear and Enthusiastically
understand every word he expressed
to the participants of the thrift
exercises" Mr.. Sheehy not only be-
Titled and embarrassed the children
of the St. stephens Polish School,
but took the Measure of considering
the pfonounclng of Polish names as
a huge joke. The name Dzikowski
was pronounced DZykowhiskey;
Matuszewski as Matuzywhisksy;
Boniewski as Bonejwhiskey; all the
Polish names were augmented with
the word "~whiskey'; the audience
bursted with laughter after each
and every Polish name that was
called by Mr.. Sheehy, for he man
aged very shrewdly to end every
Polish name with the affix-whiskey.
The above statement is the truth
and we are ready for any existing
emergency to corroborate our state
ment and prove that such Is posi-
lively the truth.
AS members of the st. Cecilia
Singing Society and as participants
at the thrift exercises we wish to
state that we are not making this
statement for any political 20
plishment and that our statement is
made explicitly and judiciously for
the purpose of conveying to your
readers that the Polish names were
mos. shamefully pronounced and no
one will take away the liberty from
us to justly use our prudence in
meriting justice where justice is de-
served. Yours very truly,

ELECTION seen;
WOMEN'S VOTE ISSUE

Most OF the talking has been done

She is not on the street corners,
IN cigar stores or other places
where politics is discussed and so
her viewpoint is not heard. She,
therefore, is the unknown quantity
in this election but it is believed
the Republican leaders are banking
on her.
Some of the remarks and cam
paign comments attributed to the
governor have probably hurt him.
In some instances it is known that
the executive never gave vent to
them, and that they were the out
pouring of his overezalous publicity

for them until the campaign IS over
and win or lose on the result.
Frelinghuysen has been the tar
get of the anti-prohibitionists for
months and there is some feeling
that he has grown stronge: as the
campaign closed. He will have to
stand the allegation that while he
was voting dry at Washington his
own cellar had a stock of 'wet"
goods for use upon occasion. The
senator himself, foolishly, in a
Trenton speech some months ago
practically admitted the truth of his
allegation when he declared he did
have some stock, but most of it was

would seem to depend upon the Ed

PROHIBITION AGENTS"
VISIT METUCHEN PLACE


METUCHEN, Nov. 6:-Shortly
after noon Saturday the establish
ment of J. B. McGuinness on 419
Main street was visited by six men
who represented themselves as fed
eral prohibition agents. Mr.. Nc
Guinness conducted a saloon in the
old days.
The six visitors made known that
they were going to search the prem
ises for liquor and they carried out
their intentions even though they
failed to produce a search warrant
or their credentials. 1t is believed
that the men were out looking for
some good booze.
McGuinness has made known that
after his license expired right after
the start of prohibition he returned
whatever stock he had to the brew

Says Charlotte Mills
Real Murder Victim
By Hereward Darlington, Phi. d.
Author, Lecturer and Director,
American Psychical Institute

Author, Lecturer and. Director,
American Psychical Institute
and Laboratory.
NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. 6.-The
! most interesting person in the Hall
Mills murder mystery, from a psy-
cho-pathological point of view, is
Charlotte Mills, daughter of the
murdered choir singer.
This ~17-year-old girl has been
called the most tragic victim of the
double murder.
Scientific examination discloses
startling changes. Yesterday she
was a schoolgirl. Today she is a
| woman. Yesterday her mood and
manner and tastes were of the child,
her instincts child instincts. Today
in thought and action and dress she
is an adult. One does not even have
changes.
What caused this quick transition?
Shock, first of all. Then grief,
holly tempered with anger. These
emotions no doubt prompted her to
demand the governors help in
avenging the murder of her mother.
Instantly the white spotlight of pub
licity focused upon her.
Transition Overnight
Observe then the transition from
the schoolgirl. Overnight she is the
woman of experience-the transition
mirrored in the modish clothes sud
denly hers: latest hats, new gowns,
bangles of extreme style at her ears,
silks, striking hosiery.
1t is all analogous to William
James description Of the groups of
completes in the human mind, each
holding an interest in the different
thing-and suddenly one of them
wildly brought forward by some
psychological stimulus, by what
James calls the searchlight of con-
~ciousness thrown on that urea"
That is what happened to Char
lotte Mills. Sudden stimuli of death,
of grief, of spectacular environment
came into her life. The excitement
and publicity acted on her subcon-
scious mind like water on a seed,
the subconscious blossoms suddenly
Towering and bursting into activity.
Like a ~searchlight in the dark il
Illuminating a single key of a type
writer, so certain completes of the
girls mind would rise above the
others-such as self-assertion, su-
periority, ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
In the Spotlight
She now thinks and talks and
acts and even dresses in a totally
different way than before. Take h
superiority complex alone. 1t fol-
lows Freud's theory Of the biolog1-
cal or sexual basis Of a woman's
desire to excel other women and be
more attractive.
This impulse or desire may be
subconscious, but it is there. Grief.
for example, may be a sincere and
honest grief, as in the case of Char
lotte Mills, and yet find its outlet
and It's climatic result in new gowns
and silks and earrings.

SOUTH AMBOY, Nov. 6.-On the
eve of what is considered to be the
greatest political battle aver fought
in this city, both parties seem to feel
confident of victory. The greatest
battle is being fought between Mich
ael J. Stanton, Democrat, and Daniel
C. Chase, Republican, endorsed by
the Independent Citizens party
Charles Thompson. who is running
on the independent ticket, together
with a number of his colleagues, feel
certain that he will be elected.
With regard to Mr.. Thompson,
few feel that he has any chance at
all and for this reason the question
arises as to just which candidate
Mr.. Thompson is going to hurt in
the race The three candidates are
Democrats. Mr.. Chase was elected
to the state senate and to the office
OF mayor while South Amboy was q
borough. Mr. Stanton spent four
teen years as a member of the COM
mon council. Mr.. Thompson. while
never elected to Office, is a well
known Democrat. There is no Re-
publican in the race this year.

Chase, due to the fact that he was
nominated by the Republican party,
has been talking from their plat

ranks.

rrat gatherings was afforded an in

The fight between the various
