TRAFFIC JAM
At So. AMBOY
Agitation to Relieve City Over
Week lends Under Way
Morgan Crossing Cause

SOUTH AMBOY, June IS The
traffic over the weekend through
this city, especially that of yester-
day. was the heaviest without a
doubt this year.. Commencing short
~ after noon yesterday there was a
steady stream of cars over teven
avenue. 1t was almost impossible
for any traffic at side streets to move.
Due to the most efficient work of the
traffic officers, especially that of
| Motorcycle officers Midish and
Quinlan, the long slow moving
stream of cars was kept in an eA-
| ceptionally orderly manner.
No small number of people spent
the evening watching the steady pro-
! cession of cars slowly moving in n
out of the city. There were no mis-
haps reported. State inspectors as
we'll as the state troopers were on
the job here yesterday.
The need of proper police protec-
| ton for this city was clearly mani
tested Yesterday. Few will deny
that the almost endless line of cars
that passes through this city over
the weekend needs the careful eye
of the police officer. In order TO
cope with the situation, it was nee
essary for many of the othcers 10
do double duty.
The heavy traffic of yesterday, is
an example of what will come
through here for the balance of the
lsummer months. Never before was
| the need of abolishing the grade
crossing at Morgan clearly
manifested than yesterday 1t IL
pointed out. At very short inter
walls the great line of cars was
! broken to permit the passage oil
trains. 1t meant hat much more
delay and congestion on the Morgan
road, we'll below keyport.
1t is understood that a movement
is underway at the present time 10
have the state and county authorl-
ties look into the matter OF reLleF-
ing the congestion in this city
Among the many suggestions offered
by those interested is Pine avenue
as a one way street, together with
stevens avenue. This suggestion Is
looked to with favor by no few per-
sons acquainted withe the idea.
That something will have to De
done becomes more and more appar-
emf every weekend, and the sooner
the plan is put into effect, the better
it will be for all concerned is the
! ~raneraI opinion.

HAS CHILDISH INTERVALS

Columbus, Ohio Bernice Redick,
aged 20, whose strange development
of "dual personality" has puzzled
phychiatrists for two years, is win
ming her fight. Ohio State University
Hospital officials declared.
Eiss Redick is trying to GUST the
personality of 4year-old child, which
at frequent intervals has occupied her
body since she was IS years old.
The child personality, known only
as polly" will die, according to DR..
H. H. Goddard of the university
psychology department, If Bernice's
reserve of nervous energy holds out.
If 1t does not, he said, both person
alities probably will perish.
The strain on the slender body of
Bernice Redick, which both PERSONAL
ties are struggling to occupy. may
prove overtaxing.
The case is one of the strangest in
the history Of abnormal psychology.
Bernice Redick, highly sensitive and
nervous school girl, developed the
Polly" personality at the age Of
eighteen. One day, in everything ex-
cept stature she changed into chat
tering child of four years. She did
not understand why she shouldn't play
with dolls and have a toy carpet
sweeper.
In a short time the older person
atty returned, and so far as Miss
Redick knew she had merely had a
"child's dream. Bernice knew moth
ing of Polly and when Polly in
habited the body she knew nothing Of
Bernice. I
The State Welfare Department took
her case in hand and in few months
announced that Polly had been
killed" and that Miss Redick had been
cured"
She was given clerical position
but in few weeks the work proved
too heavy and Polly" returned.
University psychiartrists say Ber-
nice is winning. Hospital records
show the Polly" personality is return
ing with less frequency.

Washington. Treasury moved
another step toward concluding its re-

the Victory notes and War Saving
Stamps of the 1918 issue. The new
issues of Treasury certificates, aggre-
eating approximately $400,O00,00O,
were announced to cover the March

in carrying the Treasury over to the
middle of May, when the last Of the
Victory notes mature.
One issue will bear four and one
fourth per cent. interest and will ma
ture September Is, and the other.
bearing an interest rate Of four and
one-half per cent, will mature March
Is, 1924. Outstanding certificates ma
turing March is or any of the Victory
notes will be accepted in exchange

therefore, must make arrangements
to meet nearly 100000, 900 in maturi-
