Dr.Lawson, 80, ,Prescribes
Laughs to Aid Long Life

Sixty years as a Baptist minister has
not quenched the spirit Of fun that was
born in the Rev. Albert C. Lawson. At
luncheon given in honor Of his
eightieth birthday by the Baptist Min
listers Conference at the Hotel Martha
Washington, DR.. Lawson explained his
hale and hearty appearance and his
long career by mis- ability to laugh at
trouble.
~ have never forgotten what my
mother told me when | went into the
ministry" he said. That was the sad
dest thing in the world is a minister
without a streak Of fun | learned by
following her suggestion that hearty
laugh saves many a situation and /
never to allow myself to be
discouraged.
That's how lived TO be eighty
years old, and how ] know | am going
to live 10 be ninety"
A letter OF congratulation from
Senator Calder was read. recalling the
days when he went TO Or. Lawson's
Sunday School.
Eighty dollars in gold was presented
10 DR.. lawson by the First Baptist
Church Of Waterbury. Conn; eighty
roses by the women of the Scotch
Plains Baptist Church. and basket OF
June flowers from the children OF the
Sunday School OF the Calvary Baptist

Proposed to Offset

on First Half Mile Ready;
Kaufman Criiicizes S45
Risk Rate Fixed by State

Alderman william J. Quinn will in
troduce an ordinance to-day permitting
;axicab drivers 70 increase their
charges by cents on thc initial half
mile in order 10 enable them 20 COM
ply with the law compelling taxicab
operators 10 insure their vehicles IN
81. 500 against damage suits. Assem-
blyman Victor r. Kaufman. whc. with
State Senator Tolbcri. sponsored the
law, expressed surprise yesterday At
the S45 n month insurance rate an
nouneed by the State Department OF
Insurance.
"Neither Senator Tolber, nor be-
lieved that such n high rate would
be established" said Mr.. Kaufman
THE object of the bill was 10 protect
the public and drive out the reckless
and III reputcd operators. and was not
intended to deprive any reliable and
worthy operators Of livelihood.
while the position Of the Superintend-
ent OF Insurance can readily be under
stood in that he has the responsibility
OF seeing that the companies issuing
the insurances remain solvent, netuary
figures which | have been able 10
gather prove the rate Of $50 a month
would amply cover the risk entaiiad
when writing this insurance.
Nevertheless. II Francis R. Stod-
dard, as Superintendent Of Insurance
feels that he should stand on safe
ground. and that there is no other
alternative, and until the cost is re-
duced. taxicab drivers should be en-
titled 20 slight increase to offset the
cost OF this increased burden.
THE public using the taxicabs will
not notice the small increase and II
I'm not mistaken will gladly pay for
the added protection. and it will aid
the men affected by this law TO con-
tinue 10 earn a living II they operate
cars with more care. IL must be under
stood by the taxicab operators that in
order 10 cut the cost OF this insurance
they necessarily will have 10 operate
cars with greater care and regard for
the safety Of the public
