GERALDSON
IS NOT Gull LTY
Local Man Charged With At
tempted Robbery at Barber
Asphalt Plant

NEW BRUNSWICK, Dec. IL
James Geraldson, of Perth Amboy
on trial here today on an indictment
charging him with participation in
the attempted safe robbery at the
Barber Asphalt plant on August .
was acquitted by a jury on that
charge.
Assistant Prosecutor John j..
Toolan in opening he case for the
state tended to show that the de-
fendant with two others had made
plans to rob the safe of the plant,
bu. the conspiracy was hatched out
to the ears of the police, who pre-
vented it. William Carlson, who in
formed the police of the plan, was
shot with Geraldson by the police
officers because of their belief that
the informant may double-c cross
them. Carlson on the stand sub
stantiated the prosecutors asser-
tions. Samuel Hoffman is represent
ing Geraldson. Irving Taylor a third
man in this case, was recently ac-
quilted of participation in the rob
berry scheme.

ROADS
MUCH BETTER
FreehoIders Much Impressed
Following Survey in North
Jersey County Last Week

NEW BRUNSWICK. Dec. IT.
The Middlesex County Board of
Freeholders with Assistant Engineer
Edward Reid OF the State Highway
Commission maze a survey of the
roads in Bergen county last Friday
and came to the conclusion that
there was no doubt in their minds
that the roads of that county are in
better shape than those of Middle
sex. They attributed this to better
facilities of the Bergen county and
more funds. The freeholders follow
ing the inspection pointed to the fact
that the tax rate of Bergen county Is
81 as against eighty-five cents pre-
vailing in Middlesex county.
Bergen county Is more fortunate
than Middlesex, the freeholders
say, because the roads of that coun-
ty have a natural stone base. while
the roads In this county are built
on the clay, shale and sand foun-
dation thus necessitating a much
heavier concrete bed in laying roads
than is required by Bergen. The
freeholders during the trip also
we'll drained and that there are no
county along the roads.
The freeholders were informed
that Bergen county has a much
shorter mileage than has Middlesex,
while the former enjoys large road
appropriation.
The road conditions in Bergen
county are entirely different, the
freeholders say. There is no real
heavy traffic passing through Bergen
county, while Middlesex has two
large cities and is located on the
main artery of travel between New
York and Philadelphia. In Bergen
the authorities keep a close watch
over the traffic and some $4,000 was
collected from trucks on overweight
charges. Bergen county, it was
found, does not allow individuals to
open streets for making gas or sewer
connections, the work being done by
the county, and this netted them a
revenue OF 800 for the year. The
repair work of that county is done
under the supervision of the county
road supervisor, who received an an
nual salary of 5000. The road su-
pervisor of this county is paid only
S1,S00 a year. The engineer of Ber-
gen receives an annual salary of
$500 as against $4,000 in MiddleseX
county.

No COMPROMISE
IN THE SENATE
Battle on Organization is
Continued, but House is
More Tranquil Now

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17:-The
Republican insurgent bloc, whose e.
volt against the Republican party
leaders has delayed for two weeks
complete organization of the sixty
eighth congress, stood their ground
today in the senate and consolidated
the gains already made in the House
A four-day truce in the deadlock
over election of chairman of the
senate interstate commerce commit
tee ended with the insurgent group
'still holding out against the reelec-
ton of Chairman Cummins, the reg
ular Republican choice, and threat
ening to throw their entire strength
tomorrow to Senator Smith of South
Carolina, a Democ"at in the belief
that it would elect him.
In the House, formal approval
was given at last to the amended
Republican committee slate on
which the leader of the House in
surgents Representative Nelson of
Wisconsin, had been given a place
at the last minute under pressure Of
a threatened coalition between the
Democrats and Insurgents at that
end of the Capitol. Mr.. Nelson will
serve as member of the Rules
committee, which shapes the legls-
latlve program.
BY it's action today the House
technically made itself ready to pro-
ceed with the legislative business Of
the session. Actually, however, the
leaders expect to accomplish little
except committee work until after
the holidays. The Ways and Means
committee is to meet tomorrow to
begin consideration of Secretary
Melons tax revision proposal and
while otner committees are wrestl-
ing with appropriation measures, the
House itself probably will stand in
recess most of the time for the next
month.
In the House, on the other hand,
the situation has grown considerably
more tranquil, the organization Re-
publicans having paved the way to-
ward approval of the committee
states by conceding a place on the
rules committee to the insurgents in
the person Of Representative Nelson
of Wisconsin. With the row over
an early adjournment over the holi-
days to enable the committees to
make some headway in the framing
of legislation.
The senate insurgents, in announc-
ing their program last night ex-
pressed confidence that they could,
if necessary bring about the cleo
tion of Senator Smith. Democrat,
South Carolina, as chairman of the
Interstate Commerce committee.

guards, patrolng the rum fleet to
prevent it's flow of Christmas liquor
seeping into New York, today re-
ported the rescue of four alleged
runners when their fast cabin crui-
ser Dispatch was caught yesterday
in high seas ten miles off Fire Island.

$50 cases of liquor and unmanage-
able after she had sprung aleak, the
cutter Gresham dashed to her res
cue, put out a surfboat, rescued the
four shipwreCked runners and toWed
their craft to Ambrose Light.
1t took six men 45 minutes TO row
to come alongside the stricken run
ner. Darkness descended and the
rescue finally was effected with the
aid of a searchlight.
Ensign Maurman and two seamen
were placed on the Dispatch as a
prize crew, 1t took the Gresham six
hours to tow the launch twenty miles
to the light, during which the tow
once crashed into the cutters quar-
ter.
The Gresham, on her weekend
patrol. also had a brush with a
speedboat travelling at forty miles
an hour. the cutter fired fusillade,
but the runner escaped.
Runners now have adopted the
art Of camounage. They have painted
their speedboats a confusing shade
sf gray and blue, making it Difficult;
to pick them up even with glasses.
High seas today checked the rum

From Spring Lake, N. j., came re-

petition requesting Supreme Court
Judge Samuel Kalisch to fix a time
and place for hearing on this ap-
plication for condemnation proceed
ings and the justice is further asked
to appoint three commissioners on
condemnation to decide on a fair
price for the land involved.
The state contends that a fair Of
fer has been made the Donnell con-
cern for the land. The Donnell firm
has refused the states offer and as
