were instructed to start this work

Another large item facing the al

Ireland Is Recognized

DUBLIN, Dec. 6.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press)-Ireland took her
place today among the worlds com
monwealths.
The provisional government and
parliament ceased to function, their
place being taken by the permanent
parliament and cabinet OF the Irish
free state, the new commonwealth
being formally proclaimed as ar es-
tablished government. The provts-
ional regime, which ceased to exist
today, had such full powers that the
new one now inaugurated marks but
little change except in name. The
program of the day provided that
the parliament meet at 5 o CLOCK,
without ceremony and after ats mem
bers had taken the oath ele't a
speaker and nominate a president.
The order of the day called for the
naming of the executive council by
the president with a committee OF
the parliament nominating the other
minister. The arrangement amount
ed simply to the confirming in office
of the men already there.
The presidents nomination of thir-
ty senators was a part of the days
business. The lower House elects
the remaining thirty. For these
senatorships there were more than
eighty candidates. When the SEN
ate is constituted later in the week
both houses will be addressed by
Governor General Healy.
Governor General Healy was
sworn in at his residence this after
noon by the lower chief justice. The
ceremony was a simple one, attract
ing no gathering of the public.

HAYNES SEES
BOOZE CRISIS
Asks se,o0o,O0O for Next
Year to Enforce the Ma
tionaI Prohibition

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The cris-
is in the federal prohibition enforce
ment fight has been reached in the
opinion of Commissioner Haynes 1T
was disclosed today in the rep0rr OF
recent hearings before House ap-
propriations subcommittee.
In asking S9,000,000 for the next
fiscal year for his department, Mr..
HAYNES told the committee that If
similar amount be allowed for pro-
hibition enforcement continuously
for five or six years, reduction then
ought to be possible. bu. that the
critical period for enforcement was
now at hand.
Mr.. Haynes said there were 500
men employed in the work of pro-
hibition enforcement because the ap-
propriation asked for next year rep
resents the reduction of s250.000
from this years outlay. He said
there would be a slight reduction in
his forces but he hoped 20 rear
range the organization so as not ap-
preciably to lessen its efficiency.
Mr.. Haynes asked for s150,000 for
buying evidence" and told the COM
mittee $139,000 had been spent in
that way during the last year.
Representative Mckee. Republf-
can of New York asked If the COM
nissioners should not realize thei
is a widespread disrespect for obey
ing laws. ;.
"That is true of all law" replied
Mr.. Haynes, adding that a sub-com-
mittee of the American bar associa-
tion had made a statement that dis
respect for all law was at a. maxi
mum as natural sequence of the war.
Mr.. Magee said there was no such
condition a few years ago and MIR.
Sullivan insisted that the prohibi-
ton law had "caused disrespect for
all laws"
The bootleg liquor business has
brought about big increase in
counterfeiting much of which is the
work of amateurs. w. HI. Moran
chief of the secret service told the
house appropriations committee In a
statement made public today.
I'VE are just now greatly troubled
with some counterfeit bills OF IAN
workmanship in the Eastern part ct
the country" said Mr.. Moran, ''mucn
of which is being used in the work
of bootlegging particularly on the
Canadian border"
There were 3S,S26,195 gallons OF
liquor in distilleries and bonded
warehouses when the last count was
made in June, according to table
filed with the house appropriations
committee by the bureau of internal
revenue and made public today.
To show how it is disappearing
the amount under government con-
troll and drawn was 3,433,204 gal
Ions less than on the same date III
1921.

CLARA PHILLIPS STILL
AT LARGE; SCOUT
MEXICAN BORDER
Escaped Hammer Slayer
Trailed Also by Airplane--
Sensational Escape

Los ANGELES. Dec. 6.-The
search for Mrs. Clara Phillips, con-
victed of beating Mrs. Alberta Ire
maine Meadows to death with a
hammer and who escaped early
yesterday from the Los Angeles
county jail, was in active progress
today throughout southern Cali
fornia and lower California.
Despite various other tips and
clues, sheriff deputies generally held
tc their original belief that the
hammer murd eress" had fed
across the border into Mexico, and
plans were made to extend the
search today for her as far south as
ifornia peninsular, about ninety
miles south of San Diego, Cal. They
were not overlooking other direc-
tions, however, and had asked San
Francisco authorities to join in the
hunt.
Meantime, The border between
the CALIFORNIA;, from III Juana. near
San Diego, to the Arizona line, and
especially at CaleXico, Ca, and its
lower California, neighbor, Mexicali,
was being closely watched.
Armour Lee Phillips, the con-
victed woman'S husband, upon whose
story of his movements the twenty
four hours preceding his wife's es-
cape, ''some doubt" has been cast,
according to sheriff deputies, still
was in technical custody early to-
day.
The exact wherea bouts of Miss
Peggy Caffee, former chum of Mrs.
Phillips. when they were members
os the chorus of the same musical
comedy company and later star wit
ness for the state at Mrs. Phillips
trial, was unknown to the authorize
today. They said they were inter-
ested in learning where she was
merely because they wanted to feel
assured of her safety.

BY JAS. MILLS
Husband of Slain Choir Sing
er Again Appeals to Gov
ernor Edwards
WANTS PARKER HERE
Mott to 90 Before New Som
erset Grand Jury on
Dec. 19

NEW BRUNSWICK, Dec. g.
James Mills, husband of Eleanor
Reinhardt Mills, the choir singer
who was slain with Rev. Edward
Wheeler Hall in September, today
declared he would again appeal to
Governor Edwards to push investi-
CATION into the double mystery and
would ask that Ellis Parker. the
Burlington county detective be as
signed to the case. Mills told news
papermen he had evidences in his
possession which those who have
been investigating the case refused
to accept or look into. He said he
was not satisfied with the manner
in which the investigation had been
carried out and wanted the murder
er or murderers run down.
1t was reported here today that
Special Deputy Attorney General
Wilbur A. Mott would appear before
the new December term Somerset
grand ury when it is sworn in by
Supreme Court Justice Parker on
December 10 at Somerville. and pre-
sent the case to the new jury at that
time, asking for an Indictment.
Prosecutor Mott has reiterated his
statement that no one has been
eliminated from suspicion in the
case and he is today comforting
with Detectives James Mason and
Totten in Newark.
Mrs. Henry Stevens, wife OF the
brother of Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall,
widow of the slain rector. has again
declared it is her opinion that the
slain couple were not killed on the
Phillips farm, but were murdered
elsewhere and their bodies taken
there later. She refuses to give her
reasons for this belief. Henry Stew
ems is now on a hunting trip in
Greenboro, North Carolina, with Ed
win Carpenter, his cousin. Upon his
return from this trip Stevens is re-
ported planning living n New York
city, later going to South America.

WHAT ROTARY
REALLY MEANS
Interesting Discussion Takes
Place at MONDAY Lunch
con at New Packer House

Rotarians of Perth Amboy got
some real ideas about Rotary at the
weekly luncheon at the New Packer
House today. The Rotary Educa-
tional Committee of which Colby
Dill, Louis Rossi, Frederick Nelder-
meyer and Samuel Shull are the
members, was in charge with Colby
Dill, the chairman, presiding. II
was one of the best attended meet
ings the club has ever held and eacn
member carried away much to thlnk
about as to the future activities OF
the organization.
The feature of the meeting was
dialogue between Samuel Shuu and
Frederick Neidermeyer as to Whar
Rotary means and stands for. Fol-
lowing this there was discussion
started by Clancy Boynton and iol-
lowed by Ferd Garretson, aLter
which Walter Lenk gave some OF the
experiences of the Rotary club IN
Toledo of which he was a former
member. The president, Ayiin PIER
son, followed with a few remarks on
what he expected of the member
ship in putting Rotary across IN
Perth Amboy.
Clancy Boynton brought up the
matter of a program for the year ana
suggested that the club have some
definite object to work for and keep
out of all the rest. Ferd Garretson
said that instead of the club ar once
taking a vote on every project that
was brought up, a committee be
named to which all such matters
be referred and then have the PRO-
ject, after thorough consideration
be presented to. the club with recon-
mendations.
Walter Lenk said the Toledo cup
had a welfare fund from which It
helped certain causes and in every
thing else the club merely acted as
individuals with possibly the moral
support of the organization. The

FRANK HIGHWAY
TALK BY S|LzER
Springs Surprise at Good
Roads Dinner--TeIIs Why
He Opposed Bonds

NEWARK, Dec. S-Governor-
elect George S. Silzer created con-
siderable surprise at the first an
nual banquet of the Good Roads AS
sociation at the Robert Treat hotel
in Newark last night, when he gave
a talk on taxation instead of the
usual election speech that is expect
ed of successful politicians. Tne
began his address by
telling the 500 persons present, why
he had been opposed to the $4O,-
100000 road bond issue, which was
approved by the voters in the last
election, and did not finish until
he had informed the association
that it must publicly purge itself of
the impression that it was not frank
in its propaganda and to state hon.
estly and frankly who contributed
to the funds and how they were
spent.
The governor-elect declared that
his opposition to the bond issue was
based upon the universal complaint
that the burden of taxes imposed
upon property owners and tenants
alike was so great that it could no
longer be borne. Especially is this
true in view of the decreasing wage
rate, and the increasing cost oe liv-
Ing"
"Another reason for my opposi-
tion," said the governor-e.ect, was
your slogan which ran Better Roads
ETC., without increasing taxation.
And while 1 understand the mental
process by which you attempted to
Justify the statement. I felt that IN
reality it was an imposition upon
the people who gathered from 1t
that some method had been devised
by which roads could be 5uilt, and
bonds issued to the extent OF $4O,-
100000 while the taxpayer would
not have to bear any of the burden
II may say in passing" cont 7ueo
Goyernor-elect Silzer, that the act
does not limit the tax to the mill on
each dollar, but ays not less than
Sone mill. I am strongly inclined 20
believe that those who framed the
bill and those who advocated II
knew that one mill might not be
enough"
In view of the prevalent opinion
that the association is working IN
the interest of the cement trust ana
other organizations, Govenor-elect
Silzer said: 81 believe it to be your
interest and in the interest OF TINS
movement for your association to
state honestly md frankly who con-
tributed funds to you. how much
and how they were spent. Then the
public will know, and your use1ul-
ress will be assured.
The governor-elect then went INTO
detail. telling the association how II
NAV help in the public interest and
welfare, and declared that he shai,
always welcome suggestions anu
help from the organization. he also
spoke before the Newark FrosreS
sive Club.
