Its close analysis of the city's fiscal affairs revealed bad practices that had gone on for years. It urged sensible corrections on a business basis, ignored politics, took strictly a "taxpayer" view and received the cooperation of city officials. All this constitutes a great achievement. It is, therefore, a wise recommendation made by Carl R.

Evered, Camden real estate man, and a member of the committee, that eral puoiic, lor his report on "What Must We Do to Save Our party or those in the G. O. P. That election proves what we have main tained many times: Economic System?" was designed to be sent to a carefully selected That the one sound policy for the Presi group of properly sponsored per sons, with a view to establishing a national organization to put the "plan" into effect. can control epidemics, This is known as war and, when combined with the production of the equipment necessary to kill or incapacitate a few million ignorant and "unfit" workmen, is the best passible solution of the -unemployment problem, so far as immediate results are concerned.

Professor Carver's employers may yet find war more popular than his proposal for sterilising or otherwise controlling the breeding of work- era. Millions for Homicide dent is to steer firmly the liberal course, the course which has brought recovery to the nation, success to his party and new hope to the American people. It is not only sound politically, it is sound economically that the cleavage in American political opinion be based on definite differences in economic thought. For years, the It is amusing to note that while the proposal to spend one and a Professor, how could you? His theory is that "any country which permits all classes of manual workers to become too numerous is head- eel for a revolution and will deserve it" His remedy is to "control the natural increase of the if- norant and unskilled," by a combination of education, sterilization end birth control. He also urged driving people off the relief rolls by applying more rigid standards.

Coffins But No Bread What this means in practical platforms of the two parties were like peas in the same pod. They had. lost meaning and purpose. Today, all that is changed. And the best evidence of it is the tremendous increase in public interest in politics, economics and half billion dollars on relief next year arouses savage and skeptical debate, the House of Representatives has passed, almost without discussion and entirely without changes, the bill appropriating over 531 million dollars for the navy the largest peacetime appropriation for organized homicide on the high seas ever recorded in our his municipalities all over the State create such citizens' advisory committees.

The success of Camden's experiment in this respect certainly proves that an advisory committee CAN do an effective job, providing it is not blocked by those more interested in politics than in the average citizen. But this success does not mean that any kind of citizens' committee, under any kind of circumstances, can perform as well The Burnison Committee represented industries, merchants, home-owners. No one realized at the time this group tackled the problem that the combination of personalities and business abilities would work out so well. We expected a lot of this committee. But it went far beyond any expectations.

It is to be hoped that every community making a similar experiment will enjoy equal results. But it must be sure, first, that it has the right men on the committeeand the co-operation of the governing body.

A misstep is a signal for explosions.

Your playlover is an articulate person. When he issues sounds of rage they carry. The sounds that went up last year with the incredible selection of "The Old Maid" evidently penetrated the highways and byways. The Pulitzer people have heeded the warning. Robert E.

Sherwood's 'Idiot's Delight" is far more worthy of a prize than most plays honored within recent memory. It has the quality, strange among literary prize-winners, of actually being about something. It is a play against war, It makes its argument against war by showing, in strictly dramatic terms, that war is a stupid, tearing, disrupting, crazy thing. It does its job with humor and with the cockeyed detachment that is Sherwood's hallmark. "Bury the Dead," another anti-war play now on the boards, came, we suppose too late to figure in the prize race.

Certainly not so technically neat a job as 'Idiot's Delight," "Bury the Dead" attacks war on similar and perhaps more effective grounds. It announces that it's a shame for young men to die. The play carries the message over. It is a minor miracle for the Broadway stage to speak twice against war in one season, and to speak sensibly. It is almost as great a miracle for the Pulitzer people to recognize that something important has happened.

Mutual felicitations are in order. ernment of New Jersey to its citizens is a small single body of legis fourth month at Trenton and there Roosevelt in Illinois and California, saying that the figures will discour- age the campaign fund raisers of the Republican party and encourage those back of Roosevelt, "the man who is doing and will do the best for the most of us." The raising of money for a po-iiUcal campaign is legitimate, provided the money is contributed by those who are in favor of the prino ipies of the party raising the funds. Why, then, does Mr. Haws sneer at the Republican campaign fund raisers as the "get-the-money boys?" Those contributing to this fund will use their own money to further their own legitimate campaign. What a different story is told by the Democratic campaign fund! For the first time in the history of our country, billions of dollars of publlo funds, money belonging to all tl.e people.

Republican and Democratic alike, are being used to further the Democratic campaign, which Farley says is going to be one of the dirt- iest in history and he surely ought to know. Farley and his cohorts are the real "get-the-money boys," and they do not care where or how they get it, providing the getting is good. TCVFIRTTITT R.

All this is by way of showing what is probably the situation with respect to relief today at Trenton. The veterans are coasting.

Mr. Hoffman's commission will have plenty of persuasion to.

Whether this condition exists is up to the Grand Jury, since residents received no assurance to the contrary when their township committee, on Monday night, suspended Police Chief John S. Branin. Insubordination charges were brought by John McNee, chairman of the police committee, and were based upon an alleged statement by Branin that he had been warned by a committee member to 'lay off" a gambling house in Ashland.

At a hearing Monday night he did not deny the allegation. Instead, he pleaded "non vult," or in other words, offered no defense. In fact, through, his lawyer he apologized for any reflection against the members of the committee. If Branin did not make the serious charge against a committee member, why did he apologize? But if he did make that charge, why did not the township committee compel him to back it up? Branin refers to the matter only as a "misunderstanding." He has dismissed the matter as lightly as the township committee did in removing him from duty for 15 days. There should be no doubt and no misunderstanding in the minds of Delaware township residents about conditions in their community.

Their governing body has not solved the mystery. Their police chief has not. It is natural for them to expect attention from the Grand Jury. lief of the people in the state who are amateur believes he has a mission and spends long hours preparing and speaking for the committee's bills street into the boulevard It was in tended to be, ana not a oinj scar and eyesore running througl th heart of South Camden.

He is a hard and Just fighter for anything that is right There is no doubt that he had done himself injury helping the other fellow.

I saw Gimbel about a week ago and I asked him why he doesn't write in the Mail Bag anymore, and he never answered the question. Hw many people are willing to lay bias aside and face the issues that confront them today in Camden county and how can they hope to get anywhere unless some men, who have demonstrated their sincerity, are upheld by the very people who would derive the benefits. a kevnte that will strike the needy of our county in a yery short time and it is nothing less than the relief problem. The sooner we realize thai it will need intelligent handling, tempered with reason and humaneness, the more we will need impartial men like Gimbel to speak up, regardless at who he strikes, Just so he helps the real needy. In other words Gimbel has always resented the politicians' taking care of their own first instead of the most deserving cases.

I My these things because relief is being dumped back into the laps of the muni palitles, and many of us can remember the nene too distant past with its attendant ills, which we must try to avoid.

For these taxes, unlike the previously suggested sales taxes, will hit the big fortune, not the little fellow. At present, thanks to the use of corporations and corporation surpluses to evade income taxes, there are only 86 persons with taxable incomes of $1,000,000 a year or over.

If this tax bill passes, there will be 212 more taxable millionaires. Our 86 rnillionaires are paying taxes on about $185,000,000 this year. If the bill passes another 212 millionaires will pay a-year Job; matter of fact, I won't finally called the amateur meets 160th year of U. S. Independence.

Holmes, chairman of the State Cleaners Code, is not the only one who can quote Scripture. But he seems to be the only one, so far, who has used it for soliciting State funds. Asking $40,640 for the code's budget, Holmes has given the Legislative Appropriations Committee a regular Sunday school lesson in cleanliness. He sets forth those chapters of Leviticus dealing with the duty of priests to examine clothing of their people very carefully and enforce cleanliness to prevent leprosy.

This is about the first intimation that New Jersey is threatened with leprosy unless the Cleaners Code is provided with $40,640. Moreover, it gives the appropriations committee a rather tough job. The committee must either take issue with the Book of Leviticus or with the opinion of the United States District Court. The court has ruled that the operations of the code are unconstitutional. Why the code should continue to exist, in view of the court ruling, is something Holmes seems to have overlooked.
