Urged County Resident

When it was learned last spring
that two vacancies were to be made
on the Port of New York Authority
as the result of the expiration of the
terms of two members, prominent
men in Middlesex county arranged to
meet with Governor Silzer at his
office in the Perth Amboy Trust
Company at which time they empho-
sized the importance of having a
county man on this board owing to
the wonderful possibilities of harbor
and waterfront development in this
locality. Governor Silzer at the time
made no promise that he would
name a Middlesex county man but
he did declare he would seriously
consider this county claims when he
made the appointments. The nam
ing of the New Brunswick man as a
member of this important commits
sion would indicate that the activity
of Middlesex county waterway en-
thusiasts and deep thinking business
men has borne the desired results.

silzer Hopes for Monday

ATLANTIC CITY, Nov. 14:-Gov-
ernor George s. Silzer, here to speak
before the convention of the National
Grange tonight, gave no hope OF lift
ing the ban on, cunning until next
Monday, but said that he believes
gunners will be allowed to go into
the woods by that time.
The governor said that the very
minute the ban can be safely lifted
he will do so. The Department OF
Conservation and Development is
watching closely, and when the men
in charge of the work give the word,
the state department will notify all
county clerks with instructions to
them to inform the newspapers, he
added.
SOUTH AMBOY, Nov. 14:-With
las. nights rain came a series Of re-
quests TO the Office of Game Warden
Steuerwald from many of the anx-
ious gunners of this city for advice
as to whether or not cunning would
be permissible today. The warden
announced that there would be no
hunting until further notice, which
by no means was welcome news 10
the army who were waiting the first
signs OF rain.
Scarce had the rain touched the
ground when the game warden was
kept quite busy answering the aiix-
ious gunners questions. In this city
there is an unusual numb : of men
in all walks of life who set aside this
time of the year for their annual va
cations. This year the edict of Gov
ernor Silzer placed a damper on the
anticipated winter sport. The sun
ne-s have organized themselves To-
cally and have at this time a large
thriving organization, who have been
meeting during the summer months
and who have been discussing the
great possibilities of game in the
woods. The word of the ban was re-
ceived with regret. The gunners have
refrained from entering the woods.

SON DISAPPEARS;
 MOTHER WORRIED
Companions Father Sure Oi
 Safe Return, However

Two Woodlawn youths, Ralph Smith, IA, and Keith Harbour, 15, left home Monday morning in search of adven- ture. One of the lads left note for his mother stating that he was going to take a short trip"
 o. Cleveland Harbour, father of the older boy, told neighbors Tuesday eve ming that he was not worried about the disappearance of his son, and that hell return in a short time, when he gets homesick.'
 Mrs. Lula Smith, mother of the other boy, however, is suffering great apprehension regarding the safety of her son. She has made every possi- ble effort to locate the boy, and Tues day night sought a public announce ment of his disappearance in the hope that he might be recognized and re- turned to his home.
 The lad has light brown hair, blue eyes and a slight scar, scarcely dis cernible, about his mouth, she says, and when he left home he was wear ing a pongee shirt, blue serge trousers and brown high shoes.
 Belief that the two lads left home in search of trilling experiences is founded on report of Marvin Stev- ems, who told relatives that he had overheard the two discussing previous hobo" trips of the Harbour boy, and that plans for a joint repetition oi these trips were made by the boys.
 Mrs. Smiths telephone number is WoOdlawn 1190-W.

WATSON ATTACKS
 LEAGUE PLANK
Really A Population Of Princi-
 pie, Senator Declares

NEWPORT, Ky, July 7.-The al. leged inconsistency" of the democratic party was assailed tonight by Senator James E. Watson of Indiana who of fered the latest platform plank on the League of Nations as an example of the inconsistent methods of the demo- crats. The speech of the Indiana sen ator was an answer to Senator Pat Harrisons keynote address before the democratic national convention in New York and was delivered at a dinner before the Young Mems Lincoln club. It was construed as the opening salvo in the republican presidential camuaign in Kentucky.
 Nothing Approaches lt'
 Nothing in our political history ap- proches the backing and filling that were indulged in one the League of Nations planl. by tEe democratic na- ~ional .onvention that is closinb It's Scs- sion in New York;" Senator Watson said.
 ''The language of this plank cannot be construed in any other light than a repudiation of the League of Nations by the very party that proposed it in this country" he added.
 Senator Watson alluded only slightly to former members of the republican cabinet. He asserted that the republican party could not be held responsible for their alleged wrong doings.
