FUN FOR FRELINGHUYSEN.

Mo xov having heen all smoothed out for Senator Will
liam N. Runyon TO get the Republican nomination Tor gov
ernor the only dark cloud in The Republican horizon u the
present time is the United States senatorshIp' senator
yJoseph S. Frelinghuysen will be a candidate for denomination
and nm mill a few DAYS ago he seemed to have everything
pretty much his own way. although there were rumors mat
FORMER Governor E. G. Stokes would try once more to realize
his lfe's ambition to wear the toga.
George /. Record who delights to play the role OF Peck 5
.,av Row for the Republican organization, has done the eX-
snected and thrown his hat into the ring for the Unted states
ssenatorship. But George is pretty well discounted by THIS
Slime. He is a Republican, only when there is no independent
movement on foot to upset the calculations OF the regulars.
alIe has been about everything under the sun and o. present
siime is a member of the COMMITTEE of 4S" which attempted
ao launch a new party in the last presidential campaign made
In Of tbe Non Partisan League of North Dakota, the Laborites
and the remanent of the old ProSressives who have refused
to become reconciled to either of the old parties:
Seeing that there is no chance for any of these move
,nents. in the comingc campaign Record appears once more as
3 nerfectlv good Republican and is going after Senator Ere
ljnghuysen. TT has got to be admitted that George is a Drill
liant man, clever in more ways than one and IS an expert
acampaigner. Any1nai whom George opposes knows ne mas
been in a fight before the election is over.
& But as far as Frelinghuysen is concerned the candidacy
.of Record may be decidedly advantageous. Whatever OPP
Mosnion there may have been to the senior senator from New
Jersey in The rank and file of the Republican party, the lead
ers are bound to prefer Freinghuysen to Record any time
With Record in the field, therefore, the support of Freling
huvsen is going TO be more united and it means that the party
workers are going to get behind Freinghuysen more enthus-
iastically than might otherwise be the case.
Record win make the fur fly in his usual SPECTACULAR
manner. but when the votes are counted it probably will be
ound that, thanks to Record, Frelinghuysen has walked away
with the bacon. Runyon is going to have the SuDerha'orlal
domination handed to him on a silver platter; frelnShuyseh
i going to have all the fun.

DOING THE BIG THING FOR THE clTY.

When the new Board of Aldermen took over The control
of the municipal government at the beginning OF the year
they expressed a determination to get behind the city and GO
something really worth while. 1t was their idea that Perth
Amboy had gotten into a rut; that things were not going as
they should and they were determined to wake things up.
It was a laudable ambition. There is no place in the
country where more things that are really worth while can be
Done than right here in Perth Amboy. The possibilities are
enormous. All that is needed is the right spirit and the de-
Termination.
One of The tests of This ambition to do something for the
advancement of the ciy is the action to be taken by the alder
men on the proposed development at the foot of Washington
street and in Front street. FIVE are not to stand still provi-
sion must be made for going ahead. There is nothing that
will help industries go ahead more at the present time than
ample railroad facilities so that they may handle their prod
ucts more efficiently and thereby be able to meet the keen
competition that every business is up against these days.
Perth Amboy will thrive when her industries are work
ing on full time. When they have plenty of work the men
are employed and all kinds of business is benefited. The
object at the present time, therefore, is to get the industries
on their feet. The city officials have an important part to
play in bringing this about. They are working for Perth
Amboy when they do everything within their power TO assist
the local concerns compete successfully with competitors in
other cities.
Industries must have railroad facilities to work econom-

pany, the Roessler & Hasslacher Chemical Company and the
Standard Underground Gable Company are important factors
Is the economic life of this city. They carry enormous pay
rolls and the more facilities they have for doing their work
the more men they employ and the better business is
throughout the city.
These are big things that are before the city at the pres
ent time and they must be handled in a big way. The be-
aiming Of sill greater things is the start of a belt line rail-
road along the waterfront. This is what the Front street

I~NAUCURATING A CABINET
MEMBER in THE u. S. A.
Daily Letter by Frederic j. Haskin

WASHINGTON, March 14.-The
people of the United States are mott
fed through the newspapers that a
Cabinet member has resigned ms
position of honor as n of the
Presidents advisors and head OF one
of the great executive departments
OF the Government. Next they are
told of the appointment of his sue
cessor. A sketch of the careers of
the departing and the incoming OH
Gals are spread broadcast through
out the country.
The actual inauguration OF a new
Cabinet member, though, is given
little attention. The briefest men,
ton is made. 1t is nothing at all
like the brilliant celebration con-
'nected with the inauguration of a
new administration. 1t is simple
and brief to the last degree. The
only formality observed is that re-
CURED by law. The incoming Cab
met member must swear to support
the Constitution of the United States
in his new position. to obey the law,
and be honest and faithful in dis
charging the duties of his office.
This oath is the same as that taken
by President Harding a year ago,
and by the newest rookie post
man.
Will II. Hays, who as chairman OF
the Republican National Committee
was officially and actually at the
wheel of the Republican machine
which brought President Harding
into office, has resigned as Post
master General. He has completed
a years work In this position oil
trust and honor. He is leaving to
become the biggest figure in the
moving picture industry, at a large
salary. News of his resignation is
an old story. 1t has long beer
known, too. that DR.. Hubert Work
First Assistant Postmaster General
is to succeed him.
The time for Mr.. Hays actual de-
parture arrives. DIR. Work is to be
inaugurated with a brief ceremony
The news pictures of this event
flashed upon thousands of screens
all over the country. give little idea
of the real atmosphere of the nom.
ent. The written descriptions give
less.
viii Hays is at his best. He has
done we'll with one big job, and is
eager to plunge into another. He
radiates confidence, enthusiasm, ano
good fellowship. Tanned by the
Florida sun, his face flashes into
smile after smile. -.
DIR. Work is solemn and a bll
drawn. He is evidently impressed
by the great responsibilities he Is
about to as Postmaster Gen
eral and adviser to the President

ho will have quite a task to rival his
iliustrious father. Still he is anxi-
Gus to try. He is eager to see the
end of his period of education.
The picture feuds are satisfied at
last. They stop their barking COM
mands to these dignified officers of
the American G6Nernment. The
hum of the," marhin,s dies away
The crowd in the room begins to
thin out. Half d CoIen ME who
have not yet congratulate DIR.
Work delay to shake his hand-but
they are not camera men This
business they have gene through
with is just part Of the days work.
They fold up the legs of their tri-
pods, pack their paraphernalia
hastily, and leave with little formal
ity. This thing is no treat to them
In q corner VIII Hays is talking
to a friend who has an arm wound
affectionately around his neck. His
friends seem not merely to like him
but to love him.
Twenty minutes after the picture
business is ended, the new Postmas-
ter General slips quietly into the de-
! partmental cafeteria with his sor
and a friend from home. He
lunches simply. as he has done fol
the past year. with the men and
women employees upon whose
loyalty and cooperation he must de-
PEND for a successful administrator

STANFORD MAY PUT

SAN FRANCISCO, March 3.-Thc
1923 crew season may again see Stan
ford university on the water with q
shell.
The Palo Alto institution, whose
aquatic prowess became famons de
c:,dc ago, abandoned crew as sport
in 1919 because of difficulties in fin
ancing the sport, which takes q large

IS practically devoid of gate receipts.

been spent for crew was diverted to
The building Of a basketball pavilion,
recently completed, which is declared
to be the most modern in the country
With that project out Of the way
and athletics well financed. owing to
.he football crowds drawn to the
newly completed stadium, which holds
55 900, the athletic authorities at the
Cardinal institution are considering re-
viving the crew.
II is expected that the $25, 900 neces
sarv to put the sport on its feet VIII

ford has unusual difficulties to over.
rome in practise The bOathouse is
miles away on a slough Of San Fran
cisco Bay at Redwood city.
The present boathonse facilities are
atterly inadequate, and many other
rhanges will have to be made.
During the years Stanford partici-
rated in the sport from 1910 TO
1919, she gained 4 nationwide repn'
iation as the home OF powerful eights.
The return Of Stanford to crew is
expected to make two powerful con
tenders at Eastern regattas during the
1929 season. The University of Cali
fornia crew last year won reputa-
ton for itself at eastern races.
The greatest honor ever won by
Stanford crew went to the l0l5 eight,
which took second place to Cornell in
the Poughkcepsic regatta, after made
Guate practise on the Hudson follow
ing n hard trans continental trip. Stan
Cord lost by half length. The cox
vain, Johnny Goodman, kept his crew
rowing on for some distance, unaware
that they had crossed the finish. The
Stanford shell was gaining on the
Ithacans ut the close. Following the
race the Cornell men collapsed in
their boat, while the husky Stanford
ties turned their boat around and row
ed four miles back up the river-hav-
ing no launch.
The trip broke the crew. They had
to "hock' their shell to get transpor-
tation back to the Pacific coast.
One thing is certain, however. II
Stanford returns to crew again, the
sport will be adequately financed,
much Of which was lacking in the past
and all the necessary equipment will be
obtained.
