1t has become All axiom that sue
cessful defensive line play depends
upon the sharp aggressive use OF
hands while breaking through. The
offensive line at the point OF attack
charges ahead, seeking to make con-
tact with the shoulder against the
body OF defensive liueman. The-de-
iensivc linemau, with his legs held
like those in positions similar to
those OF the wrestler, avoids the
charge BY striking the opponent
aside, at the same time stepping
through into the play. The sharp,
aggressive striking with the hands
in the effort to break through
is the essential characteristic OF
the good defensive lineman. The
good defensive lineman must also
be able, when he finds himself
at the point OF the play, to
get quickly to the ground, spilling
the play BY taking out as many legs
as possible.

Because of so much illness and

SENATOR CASE
BACKS S|LZER
Gives Statement Against Re-
publican Sentiment-Says
He is No "Rep" Republican

TRENTON. March 7:-Giving
caustic criticism to the plan of Unit
ed States Senator Edge for a one
man highway commission, State SEN
ator Clarence Z. Case, Republican,
of Somerset county, today issued a
warm statement declaring in favor
of confirming all four of the nomina-
tions of Governor Silzer. He declared
that the opposition to the appoint
ments by the governor has cavorted
under various guises," until one
might infer that George S. Silzer
had slipped into the governors chair
by way of the window or the back
door"
II am a Republican. I ar not a
rip-Republican," said Senator Case,
as he declared the senate should per-
form its statutory duty and pass on
the names of General Scott and
Kidde, Republicans, and Stewart and
Jelin, Democrats. The statement fol-
lows:
II see no reason for changing my
position. which is that the senate
should act upon the governors APP
pointees to the highway commission.
Each senator has a vote, and may
vote separately on each name either
to confirm or reject. 1 am ready to
vote for confirmation of all the
names.
1T will be recalled that the Re-
publican conference. through its
committee, waited upon the governor
and suggested that the highway
problem be solved by the passage Of
the present act providing for the ap-
pointment of the four-man bi-parti-
san board. The governor acquiesced.
The legislature passed the bill; the
governor signed it and sent in the
names Of his appointees. Why should
not the senate perform its statutory
duty and pass on these names?
"It is now suggested that the legis-
lature repeal that statute, which is
only a few weeks old, and enact a
new scheme one-man commits
sion; to be named by the legislature
of course, a ripper bill, a sug~ar-coat-
ed dose to remove power from the
governor. The opposition 10 appoint
ment by the governor has cavorted
under various guises."

BURTON MAKES REPLY
IN PROBE Of LAND HERE
CONTINUED from page II

THE commission unanimously
voted to offer $230,000 for the prop
erty after the attorney general ad-
vised that the land remaining could
be sold. The Donnell company &C
copied the offer. The contract was
made and the Middlesex Title Com
pany was engaged to make a search
and abstract of title and to guaran-
tee the same to the state.
II personally engaged the title
company and had many conferences
with them regarding this and other
titles they were searching for US. The
title company found OF record an
old mortgage on the property and
asked me to see the Donnell people
about it. I phoned them and the
president of the company and the
secretary came to my Office a few
days later. 1t was by the way the
first time I ever saw or met Mr..
Donnell, the president of the COM
pany. They gave me information
concerning the old mortgage which
1 a~fterward gave to the title COM
pany. AS they were about to leave
they told me that they had received
that day the deed from the attor-
ney generals office and wanted to
execute it at once as Mr.. Donnel1
was about to leave New Jersey again
that night.
I looked through the bank where
my officers are located for a notary
public. and as everyone had gone,
I took the usual acknowledgment
Of the deed, the am as every other
lawyer in the state has done, as a
matter to accommodation, not once,
but hundreds Of times. The ques-
ton Of ven stamps on the deed
arose, and not knowing whether a
deed to the state required such
stamps, they gave me a check for
$3.50. I learned that stamps were
not required and returned to them
my check for $3.50 some time later.
81 am mighty glad that the attor-
ney general had instituted suit. I
want the entire matter aired, probed
and investigated. But why not make
a clean sweep and probe everything
done by the ousted highway commits
sion. 1t purchased hundreds of other
properties and spent millions of dol
lars. Surely, If things were corrupt,
at least n man could be found to
tell about it. I have been very pa
tient and quiet during the last few
months. reading dirty insinuations
that lack facts and details.
IT am pleased that the Donnell
matter will be made public to the
smallest detail. Now 1 demand the
opportunity to see the man ana
meet him face to face and hear him
say that any member of the old
highway commission evers enriched
himself dishonesty out of highway
funds.
LAS a citizen and taxpayer I am
entitled to know IL these statements
are based on facts or fancies and
as a member OF the former COM
mission I am entitled to know the
name and see the man who makes
the statement.
