TRAFFIC JAM
IN THIS CITY
Both Routes, Road and Ferry
Badly CongeSted Over
the Holidays

Traffic through this city yesterday
was the heaviest SO far this summer,
according to reports received from
police officers on duty at the ferry,
state bridge and New Brunswick
avenue. There were several traffic
jams in the outskirts of the city yes
terday.
New Brunswick avenue where the
new concrete stretch was recently
laid, is being used extensively by the
motorists during the repair Of AM
boy avenue. The New Brunswick
avenue route after coming through
woodbridge and Fords, is thought
more of than the route through Sc
warren and down State street.
There was a long string of cars
along outer New Brunswick avenue
and on Convery place all day yes
terday. Traffic over the Staten Is
land ferry yesterday was the heavi-
est of the summer, two boats being
kept on the so all day and last
night. The local police handled the
cars headed for the ferry in excel
lent fashion and in this manner. the
long lineup was done away with.
Regardless of the fact that the
traffic was unusually heavy and con-
sidering te halt ordered at all cor
ners during the period of silence
yesterday evening, there were no ac-
cidents reported to the local police.

REPORT CUNO
HAS RESIGNED
President Ebert of Germany
Refuses TO Accept ReSigna-
tion of Chancellor

LONDON, Aug. II (By The Asso-
ciated Press) Cuno
handed President Ebert his resigna-
ton today, says Central News dis
patch from Berlin, but the president
refused to accept it.
PARIS, Aug. 11.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press)-News received by the
foreign Office from Berlin indicating
the early downfall of the Cuno cab
met and prospects of the formation
of a government disposed to open
direct negotiations with France is
being followed with great interest in
French official circles.
France, it appears from informa-
tion CLEANED at the foreign office, is
quite willing and ready to talk, but
it is pointed out that France cannot
enter into negotiations with Ger
many for her own account alone.
The insistence of Premier Poin-
care hitherto that the passive resis-
tance in the Ruhr must cease before
any negotiations were begun is not
regarded as an obstacle, because
that resistance has greatly weaken
ed during the past week and IL is ex-
pected it would be so nearly elinl-
| mated by the new developments that
the point could be considered negli-
gible. 1t would be necessary, how
ever, for the Germans to open nego
| tiations with France, Belgium and
Italy Jointly regarding the occupa-
| ton of the Ruhr, and of course, with
| Great Britain for any final settlement
of the reparations issue.

him a chance to make good The
senator said:
Fate and circumstances have

There are some very difficult prob

THE agricultural situation is ex-
tremely serious. The coal problem
in my opinion will soon be acute.
TRANSPORTATION also requires consid-
GRAFTON, and the foreign situation
will bring into view the mad policies
now plunging Europe into deeper
misery.
'If he makes good he will certain

think he is an able man. l want to
see him given a chance TO make

of successors who will zoe able &c
command the conference of the So
cialists and working classes general
ly.
While there Is no outspoken feel
ing of ill-Will or hostility toward the
chancellor and his associates, there
is, nevertheless, a widespread feel
ing that his cabinet is to be blamed
for permitting the internal situation
to drift into the present state OF
chaos. 1t is also felt that a cabl-
net with a constructive program
should succeed him.
The Reichstag leaders conferred
last night with President Ebert and
an agreement was reached that any
change of government should be ef-
fected with the least possible con-
vulsions in order to prevent the sit
uation from drifting into the hands
of the communists.
