the good of the service" he accepted
the designations of Major John B..
Leonard of Elizabeth, Major G. Frank
Burr of this city and First Lieutenant
George V. Henderson of Asbury Park,
former officers of the One Hundred

that the phrase "for the good of the
service" be stricken from the accept
ances.

fifty who rendered their designations
after the election of Howard S. Borden
as brigade commander The protest
resulted in the resignation of General
Borden upon the demand of Governor
Edwards and the passage of legislation

disbandment of the Fifty-seventh In

Hundred and Thirteenth and One Hun

The American Legion took vigorous
exception to the action of Governor
| Edwards in accepting the resignation
of Major Burr, an overseas veteran.

Possibility of the extension OF the
city lines of Camden to embrace a
number of it's fast-growing suburbs Is
seen in the call for a conference or
the mayors of all the boroughs in the
county at the Camden Club. The call
