PLAN RECOUNT
FOR SA[TER
Woodbridge Republicans Re-
ported to Plan Such Action
Before Tomorrow

WOODBRIDGE, Nov. 14:-An-
nouncement was made today that 1t
has been definitely decided to request
a recount OF the votes cast in the
first ward to determine whether or
not the election results. in which DR..
j. p. Salter, candidate for reelection
as township committeeman on the
Republican ticket, was defeated by
his Democratic opponent, Jacob
Grausam, by twenty-five votes.
The defeat of DIR. Salter came as
a surprise and heavy blow to local
Republicans who had anticipated
victory after a somewhat close race.
II was generally considered that the
first ward result would determine
whether or not control of the town.
ship committee would remain in the
hands of the Republicans. A Re-
publican victory would assure that
and those holding appointive posi-
tions would not be in danger Of los
ing them.
A surprise came, however. in the
unexpected defeat of Committeeman
Joseph Gill in the third ward by
Arthur Olsen, of Sewaren, a Repub-
lican, which makes the committee
Republican for another year despite
the defeat of DIR. Salter. DR.. Salter
himself has not taken any step to
have the vote recounted but his
friends have decided to play safe"
and see that the vote as recorded
was legal. /. is expected Township
Attorney J. H. Thayer Martin will
make the necessary application for
a recount today.

New York Ban Lifted

ALBANY, n. Y, Nov. 1.-THE
ban on hunting and camping in the
Adirondack and Catskill fire towns
was revoked today by proclama-
ton signed. by Lieutenant Governor
George r. Lunn. In most of the
territory affected the deer season
comes to an end tomorrow.
A general rain during last night
drenched the forest floors of the
territories where forest fires have
been prevalent, removing further
danger of fire. Action was imme-
diately taken to give hunters of the
state the benefit of another day of
sport before the end of the season.
The woods of the state were closed
to hunting and camping on October
81 by proclamation signed by Gov
ernor Smith. This action was taken
upon the recommendation of the
Conservation Commission as result
of the extreme fire hazard existing
in the woods. A long drought and
the falling leaves had left the forest
floor dry as a tinder and forest fires
broke out in great numbers.
The season for deer hunting open
ed October l 5 in the Adirondacks,
November in the Catskills and Mo-
vember in the towns OF White
Creek, Salem and Jackson in Wash
ington county. The season ends to-
morrow in all sections of the state
except in the three towns of Wash
ington county where hunting may
continue until November 10.

commission, three members being
from this state and three from New
York. 1t deals at all times with
large questions of rail transportation
and finance and the development of
the port and Mr.. Silzer selected his
two appointees because of their fam
iliarity with the transportation and
finance subjects.
Ferguson is a Republican, and fills
the vacancy caused by the reslgna-
ton some time ago of Frank Ford,
whose term would be out in 1928.
Rice Is a Democrat and succeeds DE
Witt Van Buskirk, of Bayonne, who
asked Mr.. Silzer not to reappoint

Bankers Association and treasurer of
the Jersey City Chamber of Com

pointees possible. The state .appro-
PIRATES 100000 annually and a like
sum is matched by New York for the
furthering of the port plans and de-
velopment, which in this state In

tary Wilbur today asked the su-
preme court of the District of Colum-
bia to dismiss the suit of William B.
Shearer of New York. seeking to
prevent destruction of the uncom-

had authorized the President to
scrap certain ships. and that he was
acting as the agent of the President
in ordering the vessel to Virginia
Capes to be used as target. He
also asserted that Shearer had not
shown that he had an interest in the
question sufficient to justify his
bringing of the suit.
Secretary Wilbur's motion was in
addition to the governments an
swer to the suit filed previously.
