Smith Is Toast master (Courier-Kews Elizabeth 'Bureau) Elizabeth. David Baird. Re publican nominee for governor, opened his campaign In Union county before 400 Republicans here last night by pledging reduction of out a big vote. Frank H. Smith of I Plainfield, State commissioner of banking and insurance, his cam paign manager, was toastmaster at the dinner given in Mr.

Baird honor in the Eliaabeth-Carteret Hotel. Wise use of the tax rebates be ing made by the Legislature was also pledged by Mr. Baird, who said: "There has been some dispute as to the real value of the tax relief feature of the $100,000,000 program. I appreciate that in some places the contribution of the State to the local taxing districts was- not able to effect a definite reduction in taxes, but it was, nevertheless, a tax relief of $8,250,000. The taxpayers of the State would have had to contribute just this much more to local government costs, had this program not been put through.

"Last Monday the Legislature had the opportunity to make further relief contributions to help the burdened taxpayers. The Legislature, I think very wisely, made the 500,000 tax relief apply to this year'e tax bill. When the money Is re ceived by the State treasurer from the settlement of the money ad vanced for the construction of the Camden bridge, the treasurer is instructed to forward his check to the taxing district in the State, which is to apply as credit of one mill on the $1 of valuation, real and personal property, in that tax ing district."

J. Adv. 8 Lose Licenses; Both Will -Appeal De cisions of Acting Judge Technicalities Brought Up at Hearing After lengthy hearings in Traf fic Court today, Harry J. Linker, 30, of 1179 West Front street, and Albert Ingham of Highland Park were both found guilty by Acting Judge Philip H. Moskovitz of charges of operating automobiles while intoxicated.

A charge of leaving the scene of an accident was dismissed against Linker. Attorneys representing both motorists filed oral notices of appeal from the decisions on the drunken driving complaints. Linker was first found guilty of leaving the scene of an accident. but after Mr. Owens called the act ing judge's attention to the section of the traffic act under which the complaint was drawn, the charge was dismissed.

The com plaint was drawn under Section 14, subdivision 4, which applies only to personal injury, whereas it should have been taken under Arti cle 2. Section 3 of the Traffic Act. Fines of $200 each were imposed on Linker ana ingnam on ine charges of driving while drunk. Their drivers' licenses also were automatically revoked for two- vear periods as the result of the decision. John W.

Owens, attorney for Linker, moved that the charge against his client be dismissed on the erounds that the matter had been settled at a previous hearing, He declared that once a case is heard there must either be a ver dict of innocence or guilt returned and asserted that a dismissal of the complaint at a previous hear ing was nothing more than a dec laration of innocence. Linker's Caee Once Dismissed Linker was arrested May 30 by Patrolman Vesev. after Linker's car allegedly had been involved in a minor accident in West Front street. The case was tried before Actine Judge Moskovitz last month, but the charge was dis missed because of a defective com plaint, Linker being charged with driving while intoxicated in West Front street, whereas the officer did not see Linker drive the car until it reached Grant avenue and uth Second street. From that point the officer chased the motor ist, arresting him across the city line in Dunellen.

The second complaint was pre pared against Linker within the 30-day period of the alleged viola tion. At that time Linker was ar rested also on charge of leaving the scene of an accident. Sentence wa3 suspended against Linker on a charge of driving an automobile without having his driver's license with him. Linker's car said to have struck an automobile owned by Edward Wakefield of 112 Sandford (Pleaee turn to page six.)

This preference given war veterans accounts in a large measure for the present wide disparity in the allotments for the various States, according to Mr. Morgan. Thousands of men entitled to military service preference turned to Uncle Sam to find jobs for several years after the end of the war. Another factor for this discrepancy, is the fact that residents in Slates near Washington and in the District of Columbia itself are "government job minded." whereas the citizens in more distant States are not "alive to the dumber of government jobs available to them in Washington. According to Mr.

Morgan, a citizen of New Jersey who is seeking a departmental, civil service position in Washington has to travel only a short distance to take the examination. Examinations are held at the postoffices in the following New Jersey cities: Atlantic City, Camden, Newark, New Brunswick and Trenton. Mercury Down.

With a smile of victory after two weeks of uncertainty and complicated negotiations, the President last night announced France's acceptance of his plan "in principle." other countries involved had previously given their approval. The debt holiday actually will retroactive to July 1, although the -official agreement reached at Paris dates it from today. It will last until June 30, 1932.

Until then all governments, Including hard- pressed Germany, may keep at home hundreds of millions of dollars that otherwise would have be paid out to meet world war debt and reparations obligations. World Recovery, HoovtrV Aim If Sir. Hoover' dream comes true, the year's respite not only will save Germany from threatened collapse but will restore confidence, stimulate trade, and help put th whole world on the road to better times. France's acceptance was embodied in a memorandum signed in Paris. It provides, in brief, that Germany shall have a year's rest from reparations and that detailed problems arising in connection therewith shall be submitted to committee of experts acting "within the pirit of President Hoover's proposal." This means, according to fffciala here, that the experts may do nothing to whittle down the relief intended in the President's plan.

"The accord is not perfect in aQ details. But the administration feels that the committee of experts can solve the technical problem! without difficulty, and that the Important thing is that all nations have agreed to cooperate in a pis a of mutual help. International payments of mon than 5SO0.0O0.O0O about half which represent Germany's tributs of defeat will be postponed during the debt holiday. The United States will forfeit for a year in debt payments, subject to Congressional approval which Mr. Hoover feels he is assured.

He approved it without reservation. He denied requests for postponement of the approval made by John J. Griffin of Elizabeth, in behalf of the estate of Gen. Dennis F. and by Prosecutor Abe J.

David of Union county, who represented the directors of the People's Bank. Mr. Griffin based his request on the claims that the Collins estate owns 5,000 shares of the People's Bank stock and that the holders of the stock have not had time to acquaint themselves with the provisions of the plan. Mr. David said that the directors the bank have named a committee to examine the conditions of the Elizabeth Trust Company's offer and asked a postponement until after the committee could report.

Out of 1,241 positions in the Federal departments here to which New Jersey residents are entitled to hold under the law, only 493 are now rilled by them. Herbert, E. Morgan, assistant director of the recruiting division of the Civil Service Commission said every effort is being made by the commission to correct the situation.

Conditions beyond control of the commission have brought about the present inequalities, he said. The commission is now carrying on an extensive newspaper and radio publicity campaign in New Jersey and throughout the United States in an effort to make quali-field persons government job minded.
