WHEN GOVERNMENT SAVES

Far from hurting business, the
governments economy policy has
been of the utmost advantage to bust
ness" says the New York Sun. at
has already resulted in a reduction
OF several hundred million dollars a
year in federal taxes; it promises to
bring about tax reduction of 5000,
100000 or $3OO,OO0,O0O more next
year.
When the government saves
money it does not mean that the
money is not spent. What it does
mean is that instead of being spent
by the officials to keep unnecessary
bureaucrats in unproductive jobs the
money is left in the hands of the man
who earns it, and he may decide him
self how it shall be spent"
The President will find the people
behind him in his determination to
administer national affairs in an eco
nomical and business-like manner.
State officials can follow his lead.

HIGHWAY HOLDUPS

The ever-increasing habit in New
Jersey municipalities of making auto
mobilists a target in soliciting aid for
local drives is shamefully abused. A
letter from the State Highway Com
mission to the Palisadian states that
they can do nothing in the matter,
their jurisdiction covering merely the
maintenance of roads and not their
regulation.
AT any rate, it is to the discredit
of that state that these drives are
allowed, and some of the methods
used are shameful. 1t is nothing un-
usual to see long lile of cars halted
with men, girls or organizations in uni
form going through the automobilists
in approved style. This writer vouches
for the fact that in East Paterson a
man in police uniform, wearing a
pistol in holster, actually went along
the halted line and held them till the
collection was taken. If he was there
for order he made good all right. OF
course contributions are not compul-
sorry, but no man, officer or other
wise, has the slightest legal right to
coerce money from autoists, and that
is really what standing in the middle
of the road with raised hand to stop
cars mean.
Another sloppy job was recently
brought to the attention of the Paii-
sadian. nearby at that, where a man
driving a small car was halted and
charged with a road violation which he
had not committed. He pleaded his
innocence, and was finally told, WELL
We'll let it go this time. Just buy a
couple of these tickets for two dollars
and you can go along" He did.
Is this fair? Is it right?
We submit the facts and it wouldn't
be bad idea for the Bergen County
Board of Freeholders to hold up the
holdups.

THE GARDEN AS A HOBBY

One of the finest hobbies a man or
woman can have is gardening. Many
folks grow a greater amount of happi-
ness in their gardens than anywhere
eles. A garden is alive! 1t is Won
derful manifestation of life in many
forms. And the deepest mysteries lie
at it's heart All the miracles of
creation are its commonplace, hourly,
daily, molthly incidents. Gardens
with their silences! And their fra
grance And color and form! They
affect one like sweet music.
Did you ever notice that care stops
at the gate of the garden? Isn't 1t
your experience that an hour with the
hoe or the rake seems to effectively
shut out the worries of the day? 1t
is among the flowers and trees that
Nature seems to take one into her own
hands and cause him to breathe as
freely as the first man. And you re-
member that lovely little poem of
Thomas Edward Brown:
"a garden is lovesome thing, God
wot!
Rose plot,
Fringed pool,
Ferned grot,
The veriest school of Peace; and yet,
the fool contends that God is not
Not God! in Gardens! when the eve
is cool?
Nay but / have a sign:
'Tis very sure God walks in mine"

Communication
Editor, Palisadian

Gentlemen:
Would you be kind enough to pub
lish in your newspaper the following
for the benefit of the taxpayers of
Cliffside Park, N. J..
At recent meeting of the mayor
and council of Cliffside Park, resolu-
tion was adopted to change the prop
erty at Nelson and Anderson avenues
from a two-family district to busi-
ness section, to be voted at the COM
ing council meeting two weeks hence.
rhis is, of course, an amendment to
our present zoning ordinance.
1t may be interesting, especially to
the voters of the borough and the tax
payers at large, to note that this re-
quest, as we understand, has probably
been made by one or more of our bor-
ough officials who either own or lease,
the property on which building in
the course of construction had been
started regardless of our coming ordi-
nance. This procedure of showing
disregard for our laws and protection
for a good town, of course, could be
understood if done by people outside
the borough, but not from officials
acquainted with the laws and who
seem to take advantage of the Su-
preme Court rulings on zoning regard
less of the many protests and petit
tons that have been made by the
residents in the vicinity where this
building is located and which is to be
used for the washing and cleaning of
automobiles.
If our public officials find pleasure
in depreciating our and your prop
erty it is time that we recognize this
fact and let our voices be heard at the
next council meeting, where men that
we voted to Office for protection are
about to vote on the amendment, one
of the voters being the leasee of the
property.
Thanking you for the publication of
same, l remain,

THE BIBLE AT DAYTON

1t would make queer situation if
there ever came a time when there
wasn't national topic up for consid-
Grafton in the United States. Also it
would seem strange if there were not
constantly in the public mind an is
sue of some kind. The end of the
foolish Scopes trial at Dayton, Tenn,
was a good riddance. Darrow's attack
on the Bible was unwarranted So
far as religion goes, every man is his
own arbiter. In the populous centers
of America the past two decades has
found a tendency toward a broader
| conception of our accepted religious
views-that is, our view on the
Christian religion. All religions are
just as sincere as the Christian re-
| ligion, though it is only natural that
Christians believe that all the others
mean little or nothing.
In mysticism, in difficult points that
we cannot understand, all are about
alike There is form of the mystic
about all religions What is more
mysterious than a conception of God?
What is He? Who knows? Those
of us who accept the Bible understand
God as a spirit, but of course that is
as mystical as anything could be. 1t
is reasonable enough to accept this as
basis of truth-a part of the faith
we have in the Christian religion. All
religion has faith as it's foundation
stone, and no man has as yet devised
plan of acceptance that satisfies all
minds. Hence we are today as much
in the dark about many of the funda-
mental things of the Christian religion
as we were at the start. Here we have
agnostics doubling the inspiration of
the Bible. Other people believe that
the immortal Shakespeare was in
spired. He was, if ever man was.
So, why not the Bible? 1t is far more
reliable in all of its tenets and
declarations than any other book ever
written. 1t contains more truth,
more inspiration, more exalted things
that elevate man beyond himself
more Of the wonderful, the beautiful,
the sublime, the pathetic, the lovable,
than any other book. 1t contains
more to perpetuate our truest appreci-
alton of the immortal, and gives us
a clearer vision of the hope of heaven
than all of the other writings since
the beginning of history Moreover,
1t has done more to help mankind
along the road of right endeavor than
any other appeal ever put into words.
And so, when We come along with
our hints of unfaith, the very thought
itself upsets us and we stray into
strange and forbidden paths. The
truth in the faith of the Bible is mans
Gibraltar. There is no other like it.
Our mere interpretations of it, our
undermining thoughts on it, really
mean little, because whatever we think
we cannot get away from the truth of
the Bible. Every. form of doubt on
the Bible is presented as an excuse,
an apology. If it is worth consider
ing at all, it is worth being believed
in as whole. 1t has wrought more
truth, more fine things in the conduct
of man, more holy acts in our daily
lives than all other influences COM

REAL ESTATE IN FLORIDA
AND IN NEW JERSEY

In these days when reports come
through of millions being made al
most overnight in Florida real estate
there is a strong tendency to forget
that right here in New Jersey for
tunes are also being made in real es-
tate.
This Ia not to underrate the Florida
boom, but in considering Florida It is
well to bear in mind that fortunes
were being made, also overnight, in
Los Angeles only two or three years
ago. Then something happened at
Hollywood, and the boom was over.
Los Angeles real estate is still good,
but a lot of people lost fortunes, both
small and large. Others who are
able to hold on will come out all right.
Florida may break and it may not.
But the point is that right here in
: New Jersey the real estate market is
increasingly strong. 1t is stronger at
one time than another, but 1t has new
er gone broke, and nobody who has
had his property soundly financed
has ever lost anything in Hudson
county in recent years.
And the future holds wonderful
things in store.
There is the proposed bridge from
Bergen county to the Bronx. That
bridge will mean tremendous in
creases in property values, just as
the bridges to 4 stsng- and meant tie
mendous increases in property values
in Flatbush, in Bay Ridge, in Long
Island City and in other parts.
The farm lands of ten to twenty
years ago are now suburban homes
and business blocks. And the farm
ers of ten and twenty years ago are,
in many instances, millionaires, while
the investors-those who foresaw
what was coming-have gained inde'
pendent wealth.
What the bridges have done for
Long Island the Mackay bridge and
other proposed bridges will do for
Bergen county and for Hudson
county.
There is still plenty of room for
further development in Hudson coun
ty, though not as much room as in the
great open spaces of Bergen county
The vehicular tunnel will be ready
inside of another wear.
The Lindenthal bridge from West
New York will become a reality with
in ten years or so.
The North Jersey Tunnel Commits
sion is now working out a plan for
rapid transit railway loop on the
western slope of the Palisades, to
connect all railroads direct with New
York subways-and if that plan
works out Hudson county will be
built up as solidly as Manhattan,
from the Bergen county line to Bay
onne.
Those who are investing in Florida
may make fortunes bigger and faster
than in Hudson and Bergen counties,
but they will not make them SAFER
and SOUNDER than those who can
see ahead a few years, right here at
home, where development may be
closely watched Hudson Dispatch.
