PLEA
HEARD IN COURT
Carteret Woman Given Lee
ture by Recorder for Sale
of Liquor-0ther Cases

CARTERET, July 24-Mrs. Mike
Ratio, of Randolph street was
severely reprimanded by Recorder
Slugg in the police court last night
following a complaint made against
her by Mrs. Andrew Nemeth, of the
same street, who in tears told the
recorder that her husband is given
all the booze he wants at Raffo's
place without money and at the
end of the week turns over his
wages for it. Mrs. Nemeth told of
being grossly ~insulted July Is when
she called at the Ratio home to take
! her husband back. She said that
she was called vile names and
thrown out of the house. Her plea
to the Ratios to refrain from sell
ing liquor to her husband has been
futile the recorder was told.
RATIO has been in the clutches OF
the federal government recently
and was charged with selling more
than soft drinks by the recorder
Andrew Nemeth, the complainantf
husband, sat in the corner of the
court room and listened to his wife'i
testimony. The recorder called hin
and said: "All this trouble is be
auS OF you. when YOU dio sopSi
you are fine, but when you arr
drunk you are horrid. If you dt
not stop drinking poisonous liquor
and stop running to Raffo's place
will send you to the workhouse FOL
thirty days"
Several other cases were hear
last night. Andrew Dodo, Andrew
Thomas, Mike Soblotny, all charged
with minor disorderly offenses wer'
fined sums ranging from 5 Alto SO.

THE RUSH HOUR PROBLEM

Only five States in the Union
have more persons engaged in in
dustry than has New Jersey. That
means factories, and to the street
railway man factories mean the
problem of rush hour travel.
Five to Fifteen Times
as many people demand Transports
ton during the maximum thirty
minutes of the rush hour as dur
ing the non-rush hours of the day.
Public Service Equipment
is based on meeting this maximum
demand. Trackage, cars, power,
and men are provided with which
to serve the public when the public
needs service most. The willing
ness and ability to provide for
Rush Hour Service
marks the difference between a
transportation system and the mere
operation of passenger carrying
vehicles. The one involves meet
ing the communities requirements
for service, the other means opera
ton only when it is convenient and
profitable to the operator
In New York City
the municipality has indebted it
self for more than two hundred
million dollars, upon which it pays
in interest from taxes of some ten
millions of dollars a year, to help
solve the rush hour problem. In
New Jersey the same problem has
been met by Public Service without
the taxpayers being called upon to
bear part of the burden.

TELLS OF HIS ARREST

TELL Of His ARREST
Spotswood, N. j.,
July 81, 1928
EDITOR EVENING NEWS:
My attention has beer called to
an article which appeared in your
papef Friday night to the effect that
on July 18th l had been summoned
TO appear before the recorder of
the borough Of Helmetta to answer
u charge of driving an automobile
without Lis q and that when given
this summons l ignored the same or
the plea hat | was immune from ar
on account of being chairman
: OF the police committee of the bor-
ough of Spotswood.
l would thank you to publish this
letter as 1 think the public should
receive the true facts which are as
follows:
On July nth I drove from Spots
wood to Helmetta and when leaving
Spotswood all my lights were light
ed. | stopped in front of Shaw
lsky's store in Helmetta, leaving my
lights turned on. / was in the store
only a minute or two when l was
called out by Night Waterman
Yahnell who told me / had no tail
tight. I looked at the light and
found it out. The bulb had burned
out and 1 asked him il there were
any garages open and he stated hat
they were all closed. He then asked
me my name and where I came
from. / told him and he asked nue.
IL | was the Chief of Police in Spots
wood. I told him l was and he said
it would be all right and that was
the last 1 heard of the matter until
I received a summons in the mail
on July 18th, six days after ths
night in question. The matter IS
now set down for hearing on July
2Sth.
These are the true facts and the
question / would Ike to have
answered is What influence was
brought to bear on Waterman Yah
nell between July 18th and July 18th
to get him to change his mind and
make the compiaint?"
The article further states that
SHORTY after the apprehension OF
Chief Resented, Morris Shapiro, a
brother-in-law of the Chief, hearing
of the trouble of his relative, rush.
ed to Helmetta to give aid when he
also was arrested, charged with
breaking the speed laws. Shapiro
will also be given a hearing this
Friday night"
1t will be recalled that my ex-
perience with Waterman Yahnell
took place on July 18th. My broth
er-in-law, Morris Shapiro received
a summons in the mail July goth to
] appear before the Helmetta Re-
corder that night to answer a charge
Of speeding. Wednesday night, July
18th, Mrs. Shapiro was very i'll and
it was thought she would die. At
2:30 a. m. Mr.. Shapiro drove to
Jamesburg for a doctor and unques-
tionably broke all speed laws while
going through Helmetta. Suffice it
to say that when the. true facts
were brought out at the hearing last
night, Mr.. Shapiro was promptly
discharged. /.
I realize that it is very important
that local reporters should supply
the news in an interesting manner
but think it is hardly necessary for
them to go so far away from the
truth as in this case.
Thanking you for publishing this
letter, I remain,
Yours very truly,
I. ROSENFELD.

POLICE HEAD
FINED IN COURT
Samuel Resented Fined al
Helmetta- Tells of Case
in Letter to News

HELMETTA, July 24.-P1eading
guilty to the charge of operating
his automobile without a rear light,
Chief of Police Samuel Resented
appeared before borough recorder
McDermott yesterday and paid a fine
of 1910.
Rosenfeld was arrested by Officer
Yahnel and refused to accept the
at the time or the plea
that as an officer of the borough of
Spotswood, he was immune from
arrest by an ordinary special officer.
He also pleaded immunity on the
ground that he was a deputy sheriff
of Middlesex county and a deputy
motor vehicle Inspector, but all these
titles failed to impress the borough
recorder.
Chief Resented made it known at
the hearing that he has issued a
warning to citizens of Helmetta to
be careful in passing through the
borough of S~potswood; that he
would arrest any citizen from that
place for the least violation OF the
law.
Resented in the capacity of
Chief of Police of Spotswood bor-
ough has been a thorn in the side
of violators of the motor vehicle
laws and has caused the arrest of
nearly a hundred speeders and other
violators of the law.
He was elected as a member of
common council two years ago,
coming from New York city, where
he is the owner of the Royal Tiger
Company, on Fifth avenue and
appeared before tho council and ask
ed for the appointment of chief of
police in order to put a stop to
speeding through the borough. His
request was granted. Several of
his arrests were questioned owing
to the fact that he was not a re-
recognized officer of the law. as the
status of New Jersey does not re-
cognize the appointment of a chief
of police unless the appointed has
served at least two years as a patrol
man on the force in the community
in which he resides. Spotswood has
no police force. Rosenfeld being the
only volunteer to make any attempt
to enforce the laws. He is wealthy
and has just built a handsome home
on Main street.
