BOARD
PROTEST MADE
On DisCounting Notes in Car
teret- Borough Council Re-
ceiveS Letter from Board

CARTERET, Nov. 10:-George w.
Morgan, clerk Of the Carteret Board
of Education, in a letter to the
borough council, which was present
ed at the meeting held last night
charges the present administration
with irregularity of procedure in
discounting notes for the benefit of
the education board. He also de-
clared that it has been embarrassing
to the board as we'll as an injustice
to them, because he says in the
eyes of the public at large it may
appear that the Board of Education
Is spending more of the public
money than should be necessary"
Mr.. Morgan's communication fol-
lows:- "At a meeting of the Board
of Education held on Thursday.
October IS a resolution was passed
authorizing me to communicate with
your body as to the irregularity of
your procedure in d~iscounting notes
in various sums for the benefit of
the Board of Education.
you will understand that the
board is a body corporate and dis
tinct from the common council, and
as such, the law confers upon 1t the
right to borrow money IL necessary
for its own purposes and it need
not have the sanction or the assist
ance of the common council to make
this possible.
THE law requires that n half
of the district tax should be due
July l and in this instance the
amount of $73,476.S7 should have
been to the credit of the Board of
Education as of that date. Under
these circumstances 1t should never
have beer necessary for your hon.
orable body to discount any notes
in sums of $4,000 for the Board of
Education. This is embarrassing to
the board as well as an injustice,
and in the eyes of the public at
large it may appear that the board
is spending more money than should
be necessary"
Commenting on the letter Council
nan Child said that the audit as
of January /, 1928 instructs the
council to credit the commissioners
with the demanded amount. Mayor
Mulvihill said that the present pro-
cedure of handling the funds has
been in force for sixteen years and
that for the first time the Board of
Education called upon the council
to re-arrange the finances. The
matter was referred to Collector
Charles A. Brady who later asked
| the mayor to issue a two months
| note for $35,3S2.58 on the First Ma
tional Bank at a five per cent in

Disabled First

When congress reconYenes next
month it will be swamped with pro-
posed measures of various and sun
dry sorts, each excellent, perhaps in
itself, and each supported by differ
ent groups of former service men.
Convinced that it is the belief in
tension and spirit of the American
people that the first obligation is
TO those indelibly SCARED in the
defense of the nation, the Disabled
American Veterans of the World
War is today squarely before the
country and congress with a demand
that legislation for the disabled be
given priority when Congress re-
turns to Washington in December.
Each piece of legislation must
have a relative position, so far as
time is concerned. And we are most
emphatic in our assertion that no
unwounded veteran has a right to
ask the disabled to wait while as
sistance is accorded those for whom
no emergency exists.
Dedicated as a body to help those
who cannot individually help them
selves, the Disabled American Vete-
rams today enter a new era--a real
period of armistice-in which Ameri-
ca will have a clearer appreciation
Of our problem and a mc~a grim
determination that neglect CO those
for whom the war still endures must
be lastingly ended.

A colored citizen accompanied by
more than a dozen of his friends, ap-

justice. He said that he was unlaw-

by one of the officers of the police
force on election day. He said that
he appeared before Recorder Thorn
as l.. Slugg who referred him to
take the matter up with the bor-
rough fathers. Councilman Child
questioned the right of the man to
come before the council which re-
suited in an alteration of words be-
tween the mayor and him.
"Such things should be brought to
my attention." the mayor said. "A
lot of things here must be stopped,
No man in this town whatever his
creed may be, should be searched
without facts and without any rea-
son. Those responsible for the riot
should be held for the charge"
When Councilman Child said thai

National Commander, Disabled
American Veterans of the
World War

WASHINGTON. Nov. 10:-De-
spite the fact that Armistice Day is
being celebrated, our citizens should
not be unmindful of the fact that
there are tens of thousands in this
country for whom the war is not
yet over.
In fact, for this great group of our
hghters-our disabled Veterans
November IL, 1918, marked the be-
ginning rather than the end of the
battle.
Five years ago the guns were
silenced on the western Argonne.
Today tens of thousands of the wars
manned pause for a second cessation
Of hostilities as they watch the re-
lction of the public to the results
pf their bitter battle to bring before
the people their claim of injustice.
These are being developed now by
the testimony before the senatorial
committee investigating charges OF
waste, ineficiency and indifference
k1 the Veterans Bureau.

force the truth on the people gem
orally and congress particularly.
We experienced no end of difficulty,
but now the revelations are being
Hnfolded.
Even though III criticism has at
times been most bitter, those high
IN the affairs of the nation now
realize the sincerity of our endeay-
prs.
Only recently we received from
President Coolidge a letter in which
he says:
"Your organization has shown a
fine spirit of cooperation with the
government instrumentalities engag-
ed in this difficult task, for which
am glad to express appreciation"
From General Hines, the present
director of the bureau, we have re-
ceived a similar message.
While we rejoice on this a%nniver-
cary over the fact that the investi-
CATION is we'll under way, the next
move Of the disabled is TO effec,
sweeping the permanent reforma-
tions So that the bureau will be inn

GuistO's Job Will Be to
Emulate the Mighty Casey

Lakeland, Fla, March 22.--Honors
are coming thick and fast to Louis
Guisto this year. After being re-
tanned by Speaker in preference to
the veteran star McInnis, Guisto is
once more honored by being assigned
to the cleanup position in the lineup
fourth.
The selection of Guisto may occa-
sion some surprise to the fans who
delve in the batting averages. Last
season Guisto in 35 games batted
only $50.
Such an average would hardly call
for fourth position in the batting or
der, perhaps the most important spot
in the lineup.
Speaker, however, feels that aver
ages often mean little or nothing, and
in the case of Guisto last year they
mean nothing.

The departure of the Alonzo broth
