When Tho Old Nest comes to
the Strand Theatre. on Sunday and
Monday, the people OF Rawlins will
have a chance to see a picture that
has been hailed by critics and review
ers as the most satisfying all-Amcr-
lean picture that has yet been pro

families. All tn" poignancy OF feel
ing that these lca~ve-takings arouSe

Rupert Hughes is the author of
this unusual tale of mother love. He

sorrows connected with raising n
family have been dramatiZed. Each
OF h children grow to manhood 0r
womanhOod with his W individual
interests. then leaves the old nest TO
follow the call of his desires. Only
their mother is loft in her loneliness
and her memories. But. as in every
American family. the young remem-
Der h old nest and return to it.
The picture was produced by Colt

GERAN TAKES
WET STAND
With Edwards and Silzer,
Democratic Candidate for
Congress Speaks

ASBURY PARK. Oct. Elmer
II. Geran, Democratic candidate for
congress, delivered yesterday his
first positive statement supporting
entirely the New Jersey Democratic
platform including it's opposition to
the Volstead act. There has beer
considerable speculation as to
whether Mr.. Geran would agree with
the anti-prohibition pronouncements
of his party platform and up to yes
terday he had made no statement to
indicate his position.
Speaking at a largely attended
meeting of the Monmouth county
Democrats following a dinner in
honor of Governor Edwards and
Judge Silzer, Mr.. Geran said, refer
ring to Judge Silzer's previous state
ment that he endorsed every plank
of the Democratic platform, 81, too,
endorse the state Democratic plat
form in its entirety, and 1 will have
a statement to issue in a few days
setting forth more clearly and o
particularly my attitude as the
party's candidate for congress on the
question that both parties have been
forced to recognize as the issue at
tracing most public attention"
He said no more along this line.
but everyone knew, and he admitted
later, that he referred to the ques-
ton Of prohibition.
1t is understood that in his state
ment he will favor light wines and
beers that can be construed as nom
intoxicating under the eighteenth
amendment.
Judge Silzer, speaking at the meet
ing, said in part:
There is evidence on every hand,
OF Democratic victory. An Tuesday
night ratification meeting was held
at Newark attended by representa-
tives from all the Northern counties
who came out in such numbers h a
the Kruger Auditorium turned
thousands away. On Wednesday in
Somerset county the candidates were
met by large gatherings and in the
evening at Bound Brook it was nee
essar to address an overflow meet
ing outside of the hall.
There is not the slightest doubt
but that the rank and file of the peo-
pie desire a change and want 10
enlist with us. We have a plat
form which will attract the nde-
pendent voters because it is a plat
form designed to be of service to the
people. Our Republican opponents
nave a Hisn SouHUihB pia'
form. but the voters ann take
them at their word. because they
have failed to keep their promises
to the people but have instead shown
a desire to protect special interests.
"A solemn promise to the women
of the state on night work for wo-
men was broken. A promise to step
profteering, especially in coal, was
broken; a promise to regulate utility
corporations in the interest of the
public, was broken; a promise to
restore open competition in the
building of highways, was broken.
II want to call your attention to
the increasing burden of taxation

which adds so much to the cost of
living. Your county tax is more
than twice as much as it was seven
years ago.. Freehold. your county
seat, in 1914 paid a tax Of Sill. it
is now than three times that
sum, being 1881. Asbury Pack
Jumped from s2.95 to S4.24. Eng
lishtown from $1.72 to $4.1S. And
SO throughout the whole county.
Since 1914 your ratables have in
creased fifty per cent. From one
hundred and eight million to one
hundred and forty-one million.
You have also plunged yourselves
into debt. Freehold owes four times
as much as it did in 1914, going
from $4,000 to 1892, 900. Asbury
Park has gone from S~1,S74,000 to
S2,49e,000. And so throughout the
entire county.
If the figures given to me by the
state municipal board are correct,
Monmouth county has gone in debt
In the last years $2,400, 600,
going from $414,000 to 50, 700, 900.
We have pledged ourselves to cor
rect this condition, which is a
menace to us all. Irrespective Of
party, this problem must be met.
Our platform has pledged itself
TO come to the assistance of those
who live along the shore of the At
lantic ocean to prevent pollution of
the waters, which is affecting our
oyster and fish supplies as well as
decreasing the value of property.
Nh. Edwards said in part:
The time has come for the vot-
ers of the state to decide whether
they shall be represented or shall
to be misrepresented in the
and nation. The issues are
clean cut.
THE Democratic party repudiates
the present tariff as ext~ortionate and
unfair to all but the corporation in
who contributed so generous
ly to the campaign funds of their
manikins. The Repub-
party stands pat on this money
gouging tariff bill and nonchalantly
asks What are you going to do
about it?' VIII You show them?
THE Democratic party repudiates
the brazen effrontery of the Re-
publican senators in their defense
OF Newberryism. VIII you stana for
that d~isgraceful debauching of high
public office? L think not.
The Democratic Party is in favor

that with all the publicity the news
papers have given the matter, mad
the allegations that the 4 Thompson
appointments wersz made to siye the
schools to Murray. and Morehesd will
be good campaigns stuff.
One other thing that Is working on
the fears-ef both Governor and ,Mr.
ColFin is-Judge ORear. 1t is said
that the Governor will be candidate
for U. s. Senator and that Mr.. Col
vim would like to have the Republican
nomination for Governor. 1t has also
been whispered that Judge ORear
might have political aspirations, and
neither of the first named gentlemen
would fancy him as an opponent.
Both Governor Morrow and Mr.. Col
vim are astute enough to see the pos
sibilities of the situation. BY 80
maneuvering as to get the Thompson
appointees--One of whom Is Judge
O'Rear-to locate the school at More
head, in the face of the hue and. cry
that It was a fixed deal" from the
beginning, they see an opportunity
to get good campaign material for
the Republicans and at the same
time put a quietus on any political
Inspirations Judge ORear might
have.
But, seeing that the original bill
gave the location of the schools to
three Republicans, and that they In
tended to put the school practically
on the West Virginia border, the com
mission will doubtless see that the
only way to help the solution of a
tangled propositin is to locate the
school at West Liberty-the best 10.
cation for it. anyway-and dlsappoint
those who seek to drag the school
into party politics.
Having confidence in both the In
tegrity and good sense of the mem
bers of the Commission We believe
that after mature deliberatiOn on the
situation, as it now exists, they will
decide to locate the school here.
