An Old X. J. Receipt
Dear Editor

Dear Editor
1 was recently called. by the death
of an aged aunt, to the home where
my paternal grandparents passed
their declining years, and remained a
few days following the funeral.
One afternoon, cousin produced a
small covered trunk about 10 by 20
inches and we. now middle aged peo-
pie and the oldest generation of our
family, proceeded to investigate its
contents. In it was a paper stating
the trunk was over 200 years old: sill
yer knee buckles dating back to Revo-
lutionary times and colonial slipper
buckles besides several other articles
of ancient origin. Among the papers
which consisted of deeds, notes and
receipts, we found the one enclosed
which 1 think may be of interest to
the Journal office"
The Morrill, Prescott referred to
was my grandfather and l believe at
that date owned and managed the
Monsoon hotel.
Yours truly

Still Cares for
Wife But Love Is
Dead, Says BudlOng

Newport, r. L., July 1-(H)-Milton
]. Budlong of New York still cares
for his wife, he told the court here
today at the hearing of his suit for
divorce. But his love for Mrs. Bud
long has died and living with her is
out of the question, he added.
An eager crowd which filled the
courtroom today in the hope of hear
ing a second chapter OF yesterdays
evidence describing the unsuccessful
struggle of the Budlong family TO
break into Viewpoints exclusive social
circle, met disappointment. The
proceedings lasted but Is minutes
and the court adjourned until Tues
day of next week. In that brief
period, however. Mr.. Budlong in re-
ply to questions by counsel for his
wife, stated his position with regard
to her.
do you still care for your wife"
the attorney asked.
Eyes | care for her more than any
thing else, but my love for her is
dead" Mr.. Budlong said. Living
with Mrs. Budlong is out of the
question. 1t is impossible in view
of what has happened"

Controversy Over
Star Spangled Banner

New York, July 1.-lH)-EIlmlha,
ton of the "Star Spangled Banner
from the New York Fort Society
"rJncle Sam" night celebration to pc
held tonight on the ground that 1t Is
filled with hate, most impolite, IS
not good as a musical composition
or as a poem and is antiquated,' has
brought fourth numerous statements
in it's defense.
While invitations to the celebration
bear a picture of the American flag
Mrs. Charles r. Scarborough, chair
man of arrangements, had written
beneath the flag, 1.-THE Star Spangled
Banner will not be sung" she ex-
planned that the song had never been
officially adopted as the national an
them and gave as an additional OBJ
lection to it the fact that it speaks
of the British as the foul invader.
Representative of the American
League, the army headquarters here,
Boy Scouts of America, Campfire
Girls and the Sons of the American
Revolution were among those de-
Tending the anthem. Mayor Walker,
asked for his opinion concerning the
elimination of the song, from the So
ciety's program said: Il cannot I'M
derstand how it could be eliminated
from any patriotic program"
Mrs. Scarborough made it clear
that she was not opposed to the mill
itary spirit of the nthem but that
she objected TO it primarily because
it was 'discourteous to the british.

INCREASE IN STRUGGLED DRUGS

The report on traffic in opium and
dangerous drugs. which our Depart
ment of State sends annually to the
Netherlands Government shows that
increased difficulty was encountered
the past year to eliminate the traffic
in smuggling drugs.
The number of violators reported
was 10,297, of whom only 5,S03 were
brought into court and 1.105 Of the
cases were settled by compromise.
The amount of fines imposed was
$50, 669.90. What with all the ship
ing coming into our ports and the
ease with which drugs may be snug
gled a very large proportion of the
smuggled dope undoubtedly eludes
apprehension. The total seizures
amounted to 1,178 pounds Of opium,
2,425 ounces Of morphine. 2S2 ounces
of heroin and 54S ounces of cocaine.
The amount expended for enforce
ment Of the narcotic laws was ST.
329,440.
Not very encouraging. 1nterna-
tional restraint on the production of
opium is necessary to any effective
regulation, although we must do
what we may to check this terrible
curse
