NEW BRUNSWICK. May ST.
Very little time is being lost by the
State Highway Commission in COM
plotting the preliminary details in
connection with the contemplated
reconstruction of the Lincoln high
way between Metuchen and High
land Park. though the Board of
Freeholders who are expected 70
care for the construction work uu-
der the state reimbursement act

The highway commission served
notice on the property owners living
along the road TO make the neces-
sary connection Of service pipes and
the mapping out of the detours mas
been cared for according to the no.
fice received by the freeholders yes
terday.
This notice was received without
comment on the part OF the county
authorities though it was referred
TO the road committee. Very little
has ever been done In the public
sessions of the freeholders in con-
nection with this question but on
numerous occasions Chairman Bur-
tor and District Engineer Robins of
the highway commission have been
cioseted In the secret sessions OF the
county body.
In View of the fact that the state
body 10 proceeding with the prepar-
atoms for that Improvement while
the freeholders remain mum and

subject, the inference is gathered
that this question will be settled In
the star chamber as all other ques-
lions of public interest are settled
instead Of in the public meetings OF
the board.
Under the plans of the state body |
the road will be constructed in two
sections. keeping one side of the

sarazen, Mr.. viii Tilden, Mr.
Babe" Ruth and other champions,
whose names require many pounds
of white paper and many dollars
worth Of composition for their print
ing every year.
Such an example could be fol
lowed, with great benefit to the
newspapers, by 30 per cent Of all
the statesmen in the country, and
perhaps 100 per cent Of all the
actors and screen stars.
The time saved by reporters and
editors and proofreaders and limo
type operators would amount to a
vast sum annually, and, though
this may seem unkind, the readers
Of the papers would very infrequent-
" write in to call attention to the
omissions.
Possibly a monument TO this lady
as a tennis champion or as a model

Truly a Wonder Woman

A former lady tennis champion
lately returned from Europe has
asked Of the newspapers that they
never again mention her name. Il
is an unusual, not to say astound-
ing, request. To reporters and
editors accustomed TO the importuni-
ties Of press agents and a thinly
masked eagerness Of the great to
get their names into type it comes
as a shock.
But it is a request with which It
viii be easy to comply. Indeed, the
newspapers may well sound the
praises Of this anonymous lady as
miracle woman, though they can
not hail her as a world tennis cham
pion. For never with her racquet
could she do anything so unusual and
SO epoch making as she has in pre-
ferring this overwhelmingly modest
request.
II this newspaper could print her
name, which. Of course, it cannot,
it would feature it in little homily

The Making of a MARTYR

Henry and Ne" arc at odds. "Me,"
better known as William Allen
White, editor and private citizen, has
defed Henry" otherwise Governor
Allen Of Kansas, and now is await
ing arrest with superb calmness.
From all parts Of the country eyes
are turned upon the Sunfower State.
Damon, Of Wichita, and Pythias, Of
Emporia, have symbolized all that is
noble in brotherly love and co-opera-
ton.
The trouble arose because Bill has
sentiment and Henry is often too
impetuous. IN Kansas he who SYM
pathizes with strikers against the
common veal is himself guilty Of
lawlessness. In the present railroad
strike Bill posted a placard in his
window expressing himself as 80 per
cent in sympathy with the rail work
ers. According to Henry's Attorney
General this was rank lawlessness.
II clearly aided and abetted the
strikers at least 80 per cent. And
so the impetuous Henry, like the
Queen in "Alice in Wonderland, 4"
cried "Of with his head"
Bill is now waiting in Emporia
for the sheriff, preparing himself
for his ordeal as did the martyrs Of
old. He defes all the powers Of evil
to bulge him from his position.
Henry, in the mean time, is trying
to determine what percentage Of pri-
vate judgment makes a man a law
breaker.
The dispute shows the absurd way
in which a good law can be badly in
terpreted. Mr. White is perfectly
correct in his insistence upon his
right to express his opinions about
the merits Of the strikers cause.
The very fact that this right is
questioned shows that there must be
something the matter with Kansas
this time.

More Truth Than Poetry
By James J. Montague


When Uncle Sam is on the shore.
He sets his bearded chin,
And sternly bids you drink no
more
OF whisky, rum or gin.
And IL you even hoist aboard
A little beer or ale,
His officers conduct you toward
The nearest county Jail.
But Uncle Sam, upon the sea,
A very different man is he.
When Uncle Sam is here at home
He says in accents grim
That beaded bubbles must not
foam
Above the GLASS; rim.
He casts a fierce reproying gaze
Upon all forms Of wine,
And cries that people must not
raise
The porter-laden stein.
But Uncle Sam upon a ship
Has always something on his hip.
When Uncle Sam is on the sea
He wears a kindly wink
And asks good fellows to be free
With every sort Of drink.
And being not at all averse
To making honest pelf,
To fill a rather empty purse
He peddles it himself.
When out of Mr.. Volstead's
range
He suffers quite a swift sea
change.

Strikes That Differ

The strike OF the railway shop
men, with respect TO its inception
and is equities. is vastly different
from that Of the coal miners. The
latter are able TO say that the
operators oppose national arbitra-
ton and give signs Of an inner wish
TO smash the organization Of the
miners, and perhaps to end collec-
tive bargaining altogether.
The shopmer confront dissimilar
conditions. No one charges that the
railroads are combating the union
principle. Indeed, the railroads ac-
cept adiudications under the Cum
mins-Esch law, even when against
them. This law amply safeguards
unionism and fully recognizes the
validity Of collective bargaining. In
the present instance the shopmen
are not so much fighting the rail-
roads as o decision Of the Labor
Board. The walk-out is not 10 defend
an imperiled unionism but to nullify
g particular finding Of a board which
Is highly friendly TO union rights.
In scores Of cases the shopmen
have been parties 70 proceedings be-
fore this Labor Board It's deci-
sions, almost without exception,
have favored the shopmen. They
not only welcomed these decisions
but have bitterly rcproached the
railroads for making wry faces
while swallowing the bitter medi-
cine. Not until a verdict went
against them did the shopmen dis
cover that the Labor Board was an
instrument Of oppression.
To arbitrate wages up was a
proof Of the boards virtue. Not I'M
iii it arb.trated wages down did it
become bad. Il is scarcely necessary
20 point out that the shopmen show
themselves lacking in sport spirit.
To throw bouquets to the umpire
when he rules in favor Of the home
team and hurl bottles when he rules
the other way is not beautiful con-
duct.
The issue in the railroad strike is
thus different from the issue in the
coal strike. The miners have no
board to which to appeal. No spe-
cial machinery has been set up for
their protection. They have not
gone into court, submitted their
case and then, when judgment went
against them, come out cursing
Judge and jury and proclaiming
they would not abide by the verdict.
