NEWARK, N. j., June 6.-Newark's
city commissioners divided today In
their reaction to the breaking up OF
a Socialist meeting in Military Park
Saturday night, when Norman
Thomas was pelted with eggs and Gu
cumbers and q wooden speaking plat
form was dashed from under him.
While Public Safety Director MI
chael p. Duffy ordered q thorough
investigation to ascertain whether
there was any laxity on the part Of
police" fellow commissioner. Joseph
Byrne, jr. announced he would not
again grant q permit for an outdoor
meeting at which Mr.. Thomas would
speak.
Mayor Meyer c. Ellenstein replied
to Mr. Thomas demand for guar
anteed protection" for another meet
ing that as nominal chairman" of
the commission Il have nothing to do
with the issuance of permits and I
have no control over the police"
Demanding an apology for his
treatment Saturday when q band and
the shouts OF about 100 men wearing
overseas caps and carrying American
flags drowned out his attempt to
speak, the former Socialist presiden-
tial candidate charged Mr.. El.enstein
was lin cahoots" with Mayor Frank
Hague Of Jersey City.
Jersey City police put Mr.. Thomas
on q New York ferry boat when he
tried to speak there several weeks ago.
I'm no more in cahoots with him
(Hague) than Mr.. Thomas is" Mr..
Ellenstein said.
The temper Of Newark veterans
and other citizens was shown last
night, and it would be dangerous to
allow Mr.. Thomas to speak here at
any time" said Mr.. Byrne. who is
director of parks and public property.

66,374, 900. The result then was the adj
dition Of some $500, ,00o, 900 to the esti-
mated net deficit.
Admittedly, the unforeseen and pre-
cipitous drop in business activity was
principally responsible for this error
in calculation. At the same time, 1t is
undeniable that Government policies are
major factors in business trends and
that the very tax structure which yield
ed the record revenue was an important
part Of these policies.
The country is now moving into q
new fiscal year. Budget estimates re-
vised as Of today indicate considerably
less revenue and greater expenditures
than for the previous twelve months.
At this stage, 1t might well be pointed
out, again, that many who have given
serious thought to the problem Of
financing the Government believe q
balance might more quickly be struck by
seeking smaller revenue from q less
onerous tax structure and by exercising
more care In expenditure Of the income
thus obtained.

Record Income Inadequate,

While the record internal revenue COL
lections for the fiscal year ended last
June 80 are gratifying in their reflection
OF ability to pay and of business level
productive of such revenue, their greater
significance lies in the fact that for all
their record stature they fall materially
short Of the Governments needs.
Last January, for instance, President
Roosevelt estimated total Government
revenues for the fiscal year 1888 at
$6,320,513y000, of which total $685.
913,000 would be internal revenue and
the remainder from customs and mis-
cellaneous taxes. At the same time, he
estimated total expenditures of $7,40S,-
$4,000, thus foreseeing a net deficit of
slightly more than 81 ,000, ,000, 900 for the
twelve months.
Unfortunately, although the percent
age Of error was not great, 1t pointed tn
the less desirable direction in each in
stance. Total income, for instance,
even with the record collections just an
nounced, amounted to only 1924 ,661 900
while total expenditures ran up to t7.-

THIS AND THAT.
By CHARLES &. TRAcEWELL.

"13. Get plenty Of Sleep Late sessions

: dcial effects Of days spent in the open"

All Of this is extremely sensible advice.
Those who have read 1t, or who read 1t
here, can profit from it, provided the
personal application is made.
"Why, swim alone" says one fairly
good swimmer, as II doubtful whether
No. 10 applies.
He Is Just the kind, Of course, to whom
1t does apply.
Many q strong swimmer has had tho
cramps while swimming alone, and has
never come back to tell the tale. These
sudden seizures happen to the most
athletic persons; another good swimmer
close by is a nfesaver, indeed, in all
such cases.
The necessary thing in reading good
rules, is to make personal, individual
application Of them. 1t is one thing to
read them, and quite another to apply
them where they do the most good.
Perhaps every one has had the ex-
perience Of seeing others stoop down to
clear stream Of water, and drink with
out knowing whether the water is good
or not.
Clear looking 1t may be. but some
times the clearest water is contaminated
whereas rather poor looking water may
be all right for drinking
Clear as crystal" means nothing in
regard to what might be called the
drinkability Of water.
X Ax
A word as to the famous prone pres
sure method Of resuscitation:
There is no doubt at all that every one
should know this, and be able to apply 1t
on demand, and to do 1t properly, but
how many know it well enough to make
use Of it?
A popular magazine recently showed
this method being applied to an acci-
dent victim. The application was en-
tirely wrong, and probably did more
harm than good. Here again, it is one
thing to know a thing theoretically, and
quite another to have practical ac-
quaintance with it.
Consider the poison ivy vine. Almost
every one thinks he knows its three
leaf formation, but the truth it that
thousands of such persons fail to rec
ognize 1t when they are close to it. We
have seen people standing squarely in a
great patch of it, without knowing any
poison ivy was in the neighborhood.
Prone" and "supine" are interesting
words. To be prone means to have the
front or ventral part downward, lying
face downward, in other words, whereas
to be supine means to lie face upward.
They come from Latin roots meaning,
prone, to have palms down; supine
palms up.
Schmeling. in his recent fight, really
was knocked prone, in the last knock
down; in the first, he was 'supine.
A person supine before some one else
is on his back, like an insect set of
balance.
Sunburn, whether received in the
prone or supine position, is no fun at
all il it is overdone.
And that's no joke!

Old Married Love
(Ballade.l


Young love is touching-it is sweet,
And most engaging, confess
And many are the songs replete
With praises of its joys-Ah yes.
But there's another happiness
yet more precious treasure-trove-
For what In this sad world can bless,
Like tried and true old married love.
Though we may strive new years to greet
With rosy visions of success,
Alas, too often dark defeat
Does our tired hearts oppress.
And rivalry is pitiless,
No matter how we toiled or strove-
But what an armour We possess
In tried and true old married love!
For life is hard and time Is fleet,
And once passed by, there's no redress
Who can one unkind act delete,
Or shame-filled memory suppressf
So tend the blooms of friendliness,
Wherever you may rest or rove
But hold as priceless the caress
OF tried and true old married love-!

Plea Made for
Independent Cabmen.

Plea Made for
Independent Cabmen.
To the Editor of The Star:
SEVERAL days ago Representative
Palmisano issued a statement, that
at the next session of Congress he would
try to have the present compulsory taxi
cab liability law amended to further pro-
tect the cab-riding public. But what
about the independent hacker and those
OF the small associations who number
about $500 workers?
In my trusting naive way had hopes
that the P. U. c. would interpret the bill
so that the little fellow would have q
chance and do not believe that either
Congress in passing the bill or the Presi-
dent IN signing it intended that the lit
tie fellow should be sold down the
river" For that reason and with that
thought IN mind, the Interpretation Of
that bill was left to the p. U. c.
The action of that body in resembling
order No. 1913 of July l, 1887, to now
enable Independent operators to the
tune OF 100 to band together and post a
$500 blanket bond leads me to believe
that they are stringing along with the
large associations and it looks as though
they are purposely holding up their in
depreciation Of the bill until the taxi
drivers Will have paid their $25 license
