Cusiness Men West of Cen
tral Railroad Want Aider
men to Extend Lights
Business men west of the Central
Railroad of New Jersey tracks In
Smith -street are requesting a white
way for that section of the city.
Some time ago the merchants peti
tioned the Board of Aldermen for
this improvement. The petition w*as
referred to the committee on lamps
and lights and since that time noth
ing has been heard from it. Now
the merchants are beginning to get
uneasy and want to know when the
white way is going to be an estab
lished fact.
The merchants in their plea for
this improvement maintain that the
amount of taxes they pay the city
year after year entitles them to
Some consideration which they have
fiot obtained as yet. The fact that
Madison avenue was recently made
a white way while they are still m
k the dark or receiving but little illu
K mination compared to other impor
^ tant streets in the city is anything
but pleasing to them.
There are some who hint that
voters of the fourth ward will not
fo/get the delay in this desired im
provement and will make it one of
the main campaign issues dn the
general election this fall. The busi
ness men of western Smith street
are determined to have the white
way and according to information
obtained from some of the leading
merchants in this section of the city
they will not stop their efforts until
better illumination has been obtain
ed.

TEN CENT FIRE FIGHT 1
RESUMED IN COURT
(Continued from page 1)
It was argued in the second part
of the brief that the public utility
act of New Jersey does not vio'nte
the fourteenth amendment of the
constitution of the United States re
garding the confiscation of property
as charged by tile plaintifT. The
statutes of New Jersey, it was ar
gued, provide for a Judicitl review
of orders made under the public
utility act, and that the Judicial re
view so provid’d for comprehends
power in the reviewing court to de
termine the question of confiscation
according to its own Independent
judgment as to both the laws and
the facts. It was declared that the
determination to be made under
such power of judicial review is not
confined to a determination as to
whether the order reviewed is con
fiscatory, and so violative of the
fourteenth amendment, hut extends
to a determination as to whether
the order made in law and in fact
prescribes a just and reasonable rate
of fare.
It was set up that if Section 38
of the public utility act, as amend
ed, providing for judicial review of
orders of the board is unconstitu
tional the effect would be to merely
exscind the section from the stat
ute, and that in the event of the
section's being unconstitutional, the
provisions of the certiorari act
would be operative. The certiorari
act, it was pointed out, provides for
a judicial review, comprehending an
independent judgment by the re
viewing court on the question of
confiscation both as to the law and
the facts.
'I’ho .... --- ~p at..
court of chancery of New Jersey, it
was held, extends to preventing ir
reparable injury, justty apprehended
under a statute, the constitutionality
of which is denied, and to prevent
ing irreparable injury justly appre
hended through the perversion or
abuse of power conferred by a stat
ute.
Special emphasis was placed upon
the point that the penalties imposed
by the public utilities act for viola
tions of the orders of the board,
were not extravagant or unreasona
ble, and therefore do not violate the
fourteenth amendment of the con
stitution of the United States. The
provisions o£ the public utility act
prescribing such penalties it was ar
gued, are separable and it viola
tive of the fourteenth amendment
may be treated as exscinded without
aftecting the provisions of the act ac
a whole.

MISSIONARY SOCIETY
ENJOYS PROGRAM
The season of 1921-22 for the \
Foreign Missionary Society of the
First Presbyterian church, formally
opened last night with an enthusi
astic meeting in the Presbyterian
chapel in Rector street Mrs. G. W.
Tyrrell, the president, presiding.
The program, with its musical num
bers and enthusing speaker, was
most enjoyable, particularly so be
cause of the long vacation which
most people have had from societies
and clubs during the past two
months
The chapel presented a most at
tractive appearance for the meet
ing with huge baskets of autumn
flowers gracing the president's table,
the piano and other conspicuous
places, adding a friendly note to the
chapel for the hour of sociability
which followed the program.
The committee could have picked
scarcely anyone more able than Rev.
L. V. Bushman, pastor of the Pres
byterian church in Woodbridge. to
lecture on “Present Day Conditions
in China." Association with several
Chinese boys at college and a broth
er a> a missionary in China kept
him in constant touch with the
conditions there and these facts
together with his forceful manner
of speaking held an interested audi
ence for several minutes. Mr. Bush
man emphasized the importance of
missionary work to tradesmen in
the fact that each missionary cre
ates the demand for American arti- 1
cies on his entrance into a foreign
country. He pointed out that in
giving to Chinese missions the peo
ple of the United States were giving (
in the right place. The keynote '
of liis lecture, however, proved the
religious importance of Missions in
China.

DAY NURSERY DIRECTORS
AT BUSY MEETING
The board of directors of the Dfty
Nursery Association met yesterday
afternoon at the home of Mrs. John
Quinn in Gordon street. The meet
ing was particularly interesting with
much business to be attended to be
cause of the vacation from meetings
since July.
The highest attendance in July at
the nursery was 19 children and in
August 20. while the average attend
ance was 11 in July and 9 in August
The summer attendance is always
small because of the facts that the
older children are out of school and
are able ?«• take care <*f the little
members of their families.
The members found one summer
incident related at the meeting parti
cularly interesting, when it was re
ported that a group of little girls.
Frances Haynig. Gladys Franklyn
and Hose Semer presented the nurs
ery with a little gift of money stipu
lating that it was to be spent for a
treat for the little ones. Soon after
wards two others. Berenice Bardiu
and Stella Goldfarb presented a gift
of money for the same purpose. The
matron and board greatly appreciate
the spirit which prompted the gift.
Mrs. Forrest Smith and Mrs.
Adolph Greenbaum were appointed
as visitors at the nursery for the
month of September. The next meet
ing will be held at the home of Mrs.
Frank Dorsey in High street.

To Hold Formal Dance
The V. T. G. Club will hold a
formal dance on October 30, plans
for which were discussed at their
meeting last night at the home of
Miss Ada Schwartzstein in Madison
avenue. Last year the club held a
similar occasion in the Packer House
Grill room and the size of the room
necessitated a limited number of
guests. This year the dance will be
held in a larger place, to be an
nounced later, and a large number
of guests will be included in the in
vitation. The occasion of last year
was a great success and this year’s
event will no doubt be one of the
season’s most enjoyable formal
dances.
Two members were admitted at
the meeting, the Misses Kdith Jproit
and Helen Hollander, and the club
adjourned until next Monday night
at the home of Miss Anna Gavron

PIECES consist of one massive Duoi'old Bed, which can be readily converted from a handsome parlor piece to a comfort- ||
| able sanitary Bed, one large upholstery seat and back Arm Chair, and one comfortable large size Rocker. ||
Ji Each piece is covered with finest quality Imperial Fabricoid in a rieli brown Spanish effect. The Sofa contains sani- g
j, tary spring, which is easily removed. The pure felt mattress which is included in this price, contains 18 pounds of flu.'fy
white cotton felt, and folds right in the bed. With a “Kroehler" Duofold Suite like this you virtually have an extra room
& in your home and you are always prepared for company. p
P When closed it has the appearance of a real Library Suite, as the Bed is entirely invisible.
