Only A Memory Now.

Misfortune is often a blessing in
disguise. Acts of God often pre-
vent acts of men.
The rapidity and generosity with
which the American people opened
their hearts and showered gold and
sympathy and food upon stricken
Japan has, without doubt, opened
the eyes of the islanders to the
fact that we as nation are not
inveterate enemies of the japanese
people. 1t has probably taught
them that our friendship is more to
be priced than our ennity.
For years we have been facing
the possibility of an armed clash
with Japan because we insist upon
making our own decisions as to
whom shall be admitted to citizen
ship in this country, and our most
larSlRhted students OF foreign
affairs have been almost a unit in
predicting that sooner or later the
clash would come.
But God in His wisdom has
palsied the arm of the little brown
man, and now we have nothing
but sympathy and aid for him in
his time of distress. Let US hope
that the new feeling of friendship,
produced by an act of God, will be
maintained through the centuries
by the acts of men. For years to
come, at least, the Japanese menace
has ceased to be anything more
than a memory,

What is Wrong With the Farmer:

1t would probably be easy to
name a hundred things that are
wrong with the conditions that
surround the farmer as the case OF
his surroundings has been pretty
thoroughly diagnosed. But will
some one step boldly out upon the
platform of public opinion and tell
us what is the matter with the
farmer.
The tradesman, the merchant.
the banker, the real estate man and
all the others find themselves in
the midst of circumstances and
conditions that weigh upon them
just as heavily as those that are
crushing the farmer. But we do
not hear the complaint from these
men that is constantly coming from
the farmer.
Has the farmer lost faith in his
business2 If so, why?
All business has its trade Journals
just as the farmer has his agricul-
tural magazines. But trade
journals are always full of reading
matter intended to encourage the
tradesman. They are always en-
couraging him to put forth greater
effort to overcome the present dis
couraging conditions and holding
out brighter hope for the future.
The present-day farm journals
seem to have turned pessimisls.
About all they contain is a review
of the bunch" that is being
handed to the farmer. They
brand the government, the mer-
chant, the jobber, the miller, the
railroad, the commission man, in
fact everybody with whom the
farmer must do business, as a thief
and robber. A large number of
farmers have read this stuff until
they believe it and have come to
the conclus ion that there is no use
trying to succeed.
What the farmer needs is a new
faith in the business he is engaged
in. 1t is an honorable business, a
business that any right thinking
man should be proud of. There is
no more discouragements comes to
the farmer than come to men in
other professions. 1t is business
that calls for the best that is in a
man both mentally and physically.
There is no higher calling than
that Of feeding the world. There
is no more independent life than
the life of the farmer. There is no
safer and better place to rear a
family than on the old farm.
The farmer is in better circum-
stances today than nine-tenths of
the town and city folks that he is
envying. Farming is no get-rich-
quick scheme, neither is any other
business at the present tins.

THERE is no such thing as being
perfectly neutral. A man is either
in favor of question or he is
against it, if he possesses brains
enough to form an intelligent
opinion. When you hear a fellow
pToclaiming his neutrality from the
housetops you are reasonably safe
in sizing him up as one who lacks
the courage of his convictions and
is seeking the favor of both sides
by straddling the fence. The
world will never be set afre by a
neutral"

lowed yesterday by communication

dandelions were also growing there
and to prove 1t, enclosed In the COM
munication were two the the finest
dandelions that ever escaped the

Although Tottenville was content
to rest its laurels as rival of Flori-

better, and today comes the report
from George w. Woodcock that he
spent a few leisure minutes this
morning picking pansies.

RELIGIOUS MODERNISTS
WIN FIRST VICTORY

NEW YORK. Dec. 21 (By The
Associated Press) Religious mod
ernists have won their first victory
In the series of debates between Rev.
Charles Francis Potter, pastor of
West Side Unitarian church, and DR..
John Roach Straton. pastor of Cal
vary Baptist church, and one of the
most prominent leaders of the So
called fundamentalist or conserva-
tive element among Protestant de-
nominations.
Rev. Potter was awarded the
judges decision in the first debate
last night on the question, RE
solved, that the Bible is the infalli-
BILE word of God" His victory, how
ever was won on presentation of his
arguments, for the judges did not
base on the merits of the question
itself. He upheld the negative.
The vote of the judges-two Pro-
testant EpiscopalianS and a Chris
tian Scientist-was two to one. They
announced, however, that they re-
GREETED the debaters had not defined
the question more nearly alike in
their respective minds so that the
subject might have been approached
from the same angle.

That is Tentative Plan of the
Assessment Commission
City is Divided
S37,0OO,OoO NECESSARY
Much of Increase in Assess
mentS Likely to be in Smith
Street Property
s37,ooo,ooo NECESSARY

In order that the $36, 900 addi-
tional in taxes needed to meet next
years appropriations, might be
raised without increasing the 1924
tax rate, the aldermen have begun
to hold a series of conferences with
the local assessors with the intention
of readjusting valuations here. n
conference of members of the Board
of Aldermen and the three assessors
was held Wednesday night in city half
at which time the 1928 figures were
gone over and plans were talked
over whereby valuations here could
be equalized,
The 1923 valuation of all real es-
tate in Perth Amboy totaled $93,-
75,430. The city is divided into
three districts one assessor taking
each district. The valuation of each
district was: First district, extend
ing south of Smith street, $i2, 2,160,-
345; Second district, between Smith
street and Washington street, SILL
O1,095; Third district, north OF
Washington street. $10,113.990. Per-
sonal property and automobiles
boost the total valuations here to
about $35,000,000.
1t is estimated that an increase of
about $2,000,000 In valuations will
be needed here If the tax rate is to
be kept down. Much of this increase
in ratables will likely be along
Smith street and the waterfront, it
is indicated, the price involved in
the big sale of Smith street property
this week being pointed out by as
sesors and aldermen alike of the
high value of property along the
city's principal business street.

NEW YORK, Dec. q (By The
Associated Press )-The Leviathan,
queen ship of the American mer-
chant marine inbound from Cher
bourg today grounded on Robins
Reef in New York harbor. A call
was sent for all available tugs.

dock.

of the Levia than were without ad-

came to be so far off her course.
The Leviathan was completing a
voyage during which she made an
attempt to set a new record on the
west-bound trip from Cherbourg to
New York Heavy fog, however, was
reported to have slowed her during
the last hours of the voyage.
The Beviathan is booked to go to
drydock at Boston after her passen-
gers are landed to undergo the usual
repairs which the period of slack
transatlantic trade is on.
Half a dozen tugs had reached the
Leviathan by eleven thirty o'clock
and had made fast. They tugged
away vigorously but apparently were
unable to bulge her, with the low
water mark about an hour ahead.

night of September G, went out at
S:40 o'clock and returned at S:52

Although Prosecutor Stricken,
who represented the state, ANNOUNCE
ed yesterday that a gentiemen's g
agreement had been reached be-
tween himself and Attorney Theo-
dore Strong representing the rail-
road that the outcome of the first
trial would govern the disposition
of the other four trials which are
scheduled to be heard because of the
deaths of four other persons, At
torney Strong denied that such an
agreement had been reached. The
railroads attorney said he was will
ing to have the prosecutor nolle
