Hoso Do They
Spend Your None,

1t is alleged that over $50,0O0,-
600 is being spent by the people
of New Jersey on their public
school system. In a recent public
address in Lambertville it was al
legged that the cost was only $46,-
100000 and of which only $13,000,-
600 was paid by the State.
Of course it makes little differ
ence whether the cost is paid by
the State or by local taxation and
the question is not how much is
spent although IL would be fair il
those who have the information
would let the general public know
exactly how much is being spent
and for what purposes, But the
question is, are we getting the best
possible results regardless of costs.
Governor Silzer has proposed n
survey of the situation to be con-
Quoted by non-partisan disinterested
persons, but the organization known
as "School Men" consisting Of the
State Commissioner, County and
City Superintendents oppose any in
quiry unless controlled by them.
1t will be interesting to note that
when the State school tax was first
levied it was provided that it
should be distributed pro rata on
attendance to the various school
districts so that child in dis
trict poor in property, would have
something like an equal chance
with the child in district with
large amount Of ratables.
And further, that when the cost
of schools, like everything else, in
creased, at the same time, the
fund derived from the State tax
and other State funds, were divert
ed from their intended purpose and
n large proportion of them used
for cost of State administration and
the balance returned to the Count
les in proportion to their wealth
so that none of the intended bene-
fit was provided.
Several years ago Legislation was
proposed to return this fund to its
original purpose and Superintendent
Hoffman of this county joined in
a movement which was opposed by
the "School Mems" organization,
and the legislation was defeated.
This organization, however, at about
the same time, proposed to increase
the salaries of all Of the County
Superintendents in the State, except
Supt. Hoffman, and this legislation
succeeded

Fwemen Kept on
Jump by Many Calls
Many False Alarms

Lambertvile-The fire depart
ment of this city and New Hop,
have been doing a rushing business
for the past two weeks. But mos
of their activities have been due tC
false alarms. The officials ar,
aroused over the matter, and ar,
conducting Investigations to appre
hend the guilty parties.
One false alarm was about fou
o'clock Monday morning, purportinf
to be for fire on the railroad
trestle over the canal at the lower
side of the town. The suspects il
this case were Samuel Akers anC
John Curtin, who appeared before
the Board of Fire Engineers Mon
day night. But they were exonera
ted after taking affidavit that they
had seen fire at the trestle. 1t is
possible that sparks from a pass
ing train had ignited paper or Other
waste which burned out before the
arrival of the fire engines.
The most serious false alarm was
at about 1890 Sunday night, just
before the up train arrived The
alarm was phoned in from the rail
road station public telephone, and
suspicion points to two or three
people who are now under investi-
CATION, according to City Clerk Var
Malta.
The congested condition of the
streets, due to ice and snow drifts
endangers the fire trucks and the
lives of the men on them. The false
alarm Sunday night reported fire
at the Universal Paper Bag plant
in New Hope, and during this run
the motor of the Fleet Wing Co
was badly damaged 1t is estimated
that repairs will cost nearly $4,000
before the truck can again respond
to fires. This not only costs the
taxpayers unjustifiable expense, but
by putting the truck out of com
mission, leaves the community short
of protection.
The officials will welcome any in.
formation which might be of value
in tracing these false alarms. SucI
information should be resported t.
the City Clerk, City Commission.
ers or members of the Fire Patrol
Reports will be kept in utmos
confidence until Investigations ar,
made, and it is hoped that citizen.
will cooperate in apprehending the
contemplate culprits who are guilty
FIRE DAMAGES GANDEY MILLS
Another false alarm was turned
in during the early morning Of
New Years day, and at the same
time there was actually a fire al
the old grandstand at the baseball
park. Fortunately, the fremei
reached the ball park in time tc
save the structure.
Fire destroyed a warehouse ad
joining the Gandey Paper Mills Sun
day night. The building contained
oil supplies and a quantity of rope
The fire companies responded quick
ly and succeeded in preventing
the fire from spreading to the mai
buildings. The loss was about $500
and was covered by insurance.
All indications point to the FIR
being of incendiary origin, an
an investigation is being made to
ward apprehending the guilty part

Tax Reduction Popular

The National Industrial Conference Board shows by n
careful survey that there is nothing more unpopular than any
proposition TO increase federal, state and local taxes.
This statistical body shows that during 1921 %, inclusive.
while state and local taxes increased nearly IS per cent, federal
taxes decreasd moro than ~ per cent.
While federal taxes were reduced 1,oo0,0O0y000 in three
years, states and political subdivisions have been borrowing
and spending heavily.
In 1919. these subdivisions borrowed s691 100000; in 1923
s1,063, 1000; during 1924, over $1,3O0000,000.
Correspondingly, state and municipal subdivision taxes
have increased from S2,956, 100000 in 1919 to S4,449, 900 900 in
1923, and probably will exceed five billion dollars in 1924.
But the tide has turned and many states and localities
have reduced their levies and are proposing further reduc-
tions. The cost of education doubled between 1918 and 1923,
costing s5y530,000000 for public schools alone in 1929.
High taxation in every form, except possibly public schools
and public roads, is on the toboggan slide-Douglas Enter,

The kraut Habit

Report that Paavo Nurmi, the flying Finn, did much Of
his training on garlic and sanerkraut does not surprise some
other athletes. 1t is fairlywel known that sauerkraut pic is
one of the choicest dainties regularly absorbed by Jack Demp-
scy. This savory dish is declared to be exceptionally rich in
vitamines. Those who are furnishing for vitamines may take it
to their bosoms-or tummies-with JUNCTION and enthusiasm.
Tits said that the champion will take unto himself a wife and
fight no more-for money-but whatever happens he is ex-
pected to retain his devotion TO sauerkraut pie. This delicacy
is now served a Ia mode in numerous restaurants in the big
cities. In 81. Louis it threatens TO dispossess s%chmierkase of
its gastronomic hold. The pie is made with a thick rich crust
for both top and bottom. 1t is filled to the full with sparkling
kraut over which a quantity Of bacon grease is poured, The
crust is covered with the beaten yolks of eggs and the whole
CONNECTION is then placed in a nice hot oven and baked till it
pops. 1t comes to the table with its rich aroma intact. Now
athletes are expected to get their training in fighting for more
pie.

The adriot Mr.. Frank r. kellogg who lies in the offing
until inauguration day to take up his duties as secretary of
state, the other day was asked some leading questions as to his
trend of mind on certain points of diplomacy. de talked twice
around the world without finding anything to say about diplo-
macy and then dug this out of his inner Consciousness: "Presi-
dent Coolidge is a very silent man. l have an idea that one
reason why he intrusted me with the very important position
of ambassador to Great Britain was because he knew I would
not open my mouth. AS the future secretary of state I shall
open it still less" This makes it the more likely that when he
opens his mouth he will say something. In President Coolidge

meet with general approval, for they voice but what people
generally believe, but he goes out of his way to utter a Sian
der on the memories of our expresidents. GAS a matter of fact"
he said, most of our presidents have been pretty small pota-
toes and few in a hill, thanks to the convention system, polit-
cal parties and the genius of mediocrity which, with rare ex-
