WADSWORTH SCORES
LAW ON CHILD LABOR
Tells Senate Proposed Measure Is
Another Step to Destroy
States Rights.

The proposed child labor amend
ment to the Constitution is another
step toward centralizing the govern
ment of the United States and oblit-
Grating the state governments, Sena-
tor Wadsworth of New York declared
in the Senate yesterday.
"Viewed in it's broadest sense" he
said. this amendment goes further
toward extending the central author
ity than even did the eighteenth and
will go farther toward changing our
basic form of government
He read a long list of statutes en-
acted since 1909, which, he said, ex-
emplified a swift trend toward OBJ
liberation of the states as political en-
titles"
Sees Government Perfled.
Continuing at the pace we have
followed for the last twenty years,
Senator Wadsworth said, I'VE shortly
will establish an imperial govern
ment, whose territory will consist of
provinces instead of sovereign states.
We are whiting. at the structure
framed by the founders of this gov
ernment, and if we whittle long
enough we will destroy its -~
The senator insisted the amendment
was not necessary, as many states
have laws regulating child labor.
Senator Lenroot, republican, Wis
consin, declared the Republican party
was irrevocably committed to fed
eral child labor, amendment by the
declaration of its 1890 platform.
Senator Bayard, Democrat, Della
ware, said the census of 1920 had
shown q very different set Of facts"
than those upon which the pledge
of both. parties was based. -
Different only in degree" Senator
Lenroot replied.

New Theatre To Announce
Opening At An Early Date

Rapid progress is now being made
on Beverly's new motion picture
theatre and it is reported that it
will be completed in about three
weeks. The opening viii probab-
ly take place late in September.
The theatre building is being con-
structed and owned by Thomas Lee,
of this city, who has leased the
principle part of the house to j. 2.
Fox, of Riverside. Attractive stores
are also being completed on each
side of the theatre entrance and it
is reported that they are to be oc-
occupied by two ''live wire" mer-
chants
Much praise is being accorded Mr..
Lee for this new venture in provid-
ing Beverly with a much needed and
no doubt the most attractive mo-
ton picture house in this part of
the state. Mr.. Lee is known to
have abundant faith in the future of
our city and believes we are to have
an era of prosperity that will sur
prise even the most optimistic.
The tenant of the theatre, Mr.. Fox
is well known to Beverly residents
who, for number of years, have
been patronizing his amusement
houses in both Riverside and Bur-
lington. Mr.. Fox has stated that he
is especially interested in his new
theatre. He believes nothing is too
good for Beverly and is striving to
make it the finest of his chain.
The front Of the building is now
completed with the exception of
few details and since the recent re-
moval of two trees which complete
ly covered the face of the building,
the attractivenesa of the design can
be clearly seen and is receiving
much favorable comment. The SUR
face has just been given a coating
Of mineral stucco" to which has
been applied dash Of broken
green and blue glass made especially
for this job and which sparkles like
thousands Of jewels. 1t is stated
that nearly one hundred electric
lights will be placed eR the front Of
the building in addition to an cleo

Beverly Surprises
League Leaders

The dope in the Burlington Coun-
ty League received another jolt
urday when Beverly, tail-enders,
who sank the league-leading Delan-
co aggregation, s to-3.
George VanBrunt was in rare
form and held Delanco to six scat
tered bingles. Delanco's inability to
hit in the pinches with swelled en-
ror column, contributed to the de-
feat.
Beverly hoped on the offerings of
Runyan and Foster for IL solid bing-
les. Worrell, Reeves and VanBrunt
leading with two hits apiece. Owl
and Receives featured with several
hard catches in the field.
Another surprise came with the
defeat of Florence by Bordentown.
Neisenoff was in the box for Borden
town and he was hit hard. Book
holdt, who has been playing first
base for Trenton in the Penn-Jersey
League, was back in the Bordentown
lineup and starred at bat. Score

Mount Holly had no trouble win

with but eight men and as it is

since being taken over by the pre-

amount of automobiles new gar

Fred A. Meench, formerly of this
city, will be the proprietor and will

let car together with first class

eyesore to the people in the vicinity

planned to remodel the outside of
the building which when finished,
together with large electric sign
and lights on both inside and out
will be another added feature to the
betterment of Beverly.

Lest The Citizens May Forget.
Why Was a Low Tax Rate
Possible In 1921?

z Due to dissatisfaction with the
manner in which the City's affairs
were conducted by the Commission
ers, the citizens of Beverly, in 1920,
voted to replace the Commission
form of Government with Council
manic form.
The following spring a committee
of the Taxpayers League selected
candidates for the offices of the
Mayor and Common Council, which
candidates were elected by an over
whelming majority. and accordingly
assumed office May 18th, 1921.
Immediately upon taking office the
new Council was confronted with
perplexing financial situation. The
appropriations made in the Commits
sioner's Budget for 1921 which
should have provided for the years
expenses, were found to be SUITS
cient for only four months, in the
important items for streets, sewers,
salaries and general expenses, as
shown by the completely depleted
accounts when the Council took off
ce May 18th, and in addition to this
bills exceeding appropriations, had
been Illegally contracted.
Had the Commission form of gov
eminent been continuing, the Com
missioners would have had difficulty
in extricating themselves from this
financial dilema the burden of which
fell upon the new Council, who
placed the condition before the
State Department of Municipal Ac-
counts at Trenton, and after numer-
Gus conferences the Council was per-
mitted, as the condition was not of
their making, to issue emergency
notes covering the deficits and the
necessary expenditures for the re-
naming eight months of the year,
making total of $7,3l9.80. 1t was
necessary then, and compulsory by

| trio feature" sign and another
large display sign bearing the
name of the theatre.
1t has been learned that Mr.. Fox
/ is about to select the name for the
theatre from the several hundred
names which were turned in during
the recent contest. He will announce
the name within a few days and
present years pass to the lucky
person.
The seating capacity of the theatre
is approximately $50 including over
500 seats on the main floor. The
others will be in the balcony. A
large Moiler organ is being installed
and will be equipped with orchestra
attachments. Mr.. Fox states that
he will use two picture machines of
the very latest type and the same as
in the Stanley Theatres, of Philadel-
phia.
An expensive screen has also
been purchased and it is stated the
pictures win be the clearest and best
that can be produced. Many of the
newest photoplays have been look
ed for Beverly this Fall. 1t is ex-
pected that the theatre win be open
for two shows every night with a
change of pictures three times a
week.
A number of Beverly residents
who attended the opening of the re-
modelled Auditorium in Burlington
last winter are said to be anxiously
waiting for an invitation to the
opening of this new house, and ex-
pect it will be an equally bril-
liant affair as Mr.. Fox is well known
as lavish entertainer.
The appearance of our business
section is greatly improved by this
new theatre and all of our merchants
appear to be much pleased over the
prospects of large increase in bus
mess which it is sure to bring them.
Picture fans" are likewise happy to
have modern theatre of fireproof
construction, with comfortable seats,
plenty of ventilation and the prom
Use of all the latest shows.

law, to place this additional amount
in the 1922 budget, thus increasing
the tax rate for that year according
ly.
A budget which would have pro-
vided sufficient funds for the ordi-
nary requirements of the city for
1921 would have materially increas-
ed the tax rate for that year, and
automatically reduced the succeed
ing years rate, as established by the
Council, who were compelled to meet
one and two-thirds years expenses
from taxes levied in 1929.
THE FAILURE OF THE COM
MISSIONERS TO PROVIDE FOR
THE YEARS FINANCIAL NEEDS
ENABLED THEM TO MAKE A
LOW TAX RATE FOR 1921.
If the change in form of govern
ment had not been known fact at
the first of the year 1921, would
the Commissioners have produced
the low rate?.
Would the Commissioners have
placed themselves in the same posi-
ton as that in which Council was
placed, or was the low rate created
for purpose deliberately?
Following the excessive tax bur-
den thus brought upon the people in
1922, the next year showed de-
crease, and the present year a still
further reduction to $500, of which
the City receives but SO cents as it's
share for local taxes. These reduce
tions continued in spite of the ever
increasing demand of the State and
County taxes.
The cost of government in Bever-
ly, according to a statement just is
sued by the State League of NUM-
cipalities, shows marked economy, as
the City is next to lowest per capita
of the cities of New Jersey.
