FREL|NCHUYSEN n
TO GET POST?
His Name Suggested Among
Others for New State Road
Commissioner

TRENTON, Feb. c:-Speculation
is now rife as to the two Democrats
and the two Republicans whom the
governor will name for the four-man
State Highway Commission. One
Republican possibility mentioned is
United States Senator Frelinghuysen,
who retires at Washington on March
next. Mr.. Silzer told the Republi-
can leaders when they met him this
week that he had in mind several
Republican appointees of national
reputation, and It is believed he was
referring to the outgoing senator as
one of them. There is a feeling that
Mr.. Frelinghuysen might accept the
place as a matter of service to his
state in the present unsettled condi-
ton of road construction.
Another Republican possibility is
former Sheriff Joseph Kinzley. Jr., OF
Bergen county. A third name, al
ready heard as suggestion for a
salaried board, is that of Lewis
S. Thompson, wealthy resident OF
Monmouth county.
The resignation of Thomas j.
Wasser as state highway engineer
leaves this important post open ror
some new engineer to fill. This VIII
not be done, however, until the new
commission organizes. Mr.. Wasser s
letter of resignation to Governor Sill
zer charged that politics actuated
the Republican legislative leaders In
retiring him.
"This you can readily see is purely
politics." wrote the retiring engineer
to the executive, "the facts being
that 1 am Democrat from HUDSON
county and a member of the Hudson
county Democratic organlzat1o, rms
alone in my opinion is the sole rea-
son for their action"
Mr.. Wasser will resume his former
position as county engineer of Hud-
son county, from which he received
a leave of absence several years ago
to become state highway engineer.

COUNTY TAX RATE MAY
Be announced NEXT WEEK

NEW BRUNSWICK, Feb. s.
Indications are that the Middlesex
county tax rate will be announced
earlier this year than at any time
in several years past. The County
Board of Taxation has been going
over the tax duplicates of the va
rious municipalities and inspecting
the industrial plants throughout the
county during the past Few weeks.
II now seems likely that the county
tax rate alone will be known next
week. The various rates for each
municipality can then be expected
by the latter part of this month or
early in March, this being about a
month earlier than is customary.

FAVOR BRITISH
DEBT TERMS
Burton Says U. S. Does Not
Desire to Make More Fav-
orabIe Terms
.ASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON. Feb. s-Thc
American Debt Commission does
not desire to make more favorable
terms with the debtor nation than
are embodied in the settlement
agreement reached with the British
government, the House Ways and
Means committee was told today by
Representative Burton. Republican, n,
Ohio, a member of the commission.
THAT would not be fair to Great
Britain" said Mr.. Burton. THAT is
the country that has come forward
and helped us with settlement.
1t has as it were, put spur behind
the other debtor nations"
Mr.. Burton appeared before the
committee in behalf of his amend
ment to the existing debt funding
law which not only would authoriZ
consumation of the agreement with
Great Britain, but would enable
the commission to make settlements
with the other nations on similar
terms and subject only to the ap-
proval of the President. There was
objection by committee members to
the expression similar in terms"
the argument being advanced that
this left the door wide open.
After hearing Representative Bur-
ton, the committee postponed action
on the proposed legislation until
late in the day. Chairman Fordney
said II still was his plan to report
the measure out before night and
to obtain House consideration Of 1t
tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, Feb. s. The
Turkish orders for allied warships
to depart from Smyrna harbor were
interpreted today by naval officers
here as having no application to
the American destroyer Edsall now
in that port. It was pointed out
that the Edsall was less than the
1000 tons size limitation on war
ships fixed by the Turkish govern
ment and, also that it could not be
regarded as an allied war craft to
which the Turkish action presum-
ably applied particularly.
Navy department records show
the Edsall to be the only American
craft at present at Smyrna, and, It
was explained. the policy of the de-
partment has been not to keep more
than one warship in the harbor at
the same time.

PARIS, Feb. s,-(By The Asso.
ciated Press]-rhs Turkish order
that the allied warships must leave
Smyrna was discussed at a meeting
Of the French cabinet in the foreign
Office this morning, this develops
ment being considered in connections
with the ending Of the Lausanne
conference. The French government
is exchanging views with London
and Rome regarding the procedurs
to be followed in the efforts to reach
a state OF peace in the near east.
Until further developments, it IS un-
derstood in French official circles,
that the Lausanne conference Will
be considered still in being and villa
be regarded as finally terminated
only when the general secretary
gives notification to that effect.
The hope is that the negotiations
will be resumed as soon as Isrnet
Pasha returns from Angora.
The cabinet had rather meagre
reports from Smyrna, due to the
slowness of communications with
that port, but II is supposed that all
the allied ships there are remaining
in port. These include the French
cruiser Ernest Renan. the French
destroyer Somali, the British cruiser
Cambrian, the italian cruiser Vene-
tia, the Dutch warship Admiral
Tromp, and four American destroy
ers.
