"Kow the revert to the Highway system, it might be well to say that the six vear program of road building by the State will include a boulevard from the Fort Lee bridge to the State Highway route connecting with the Holland Tunnel in Hudson County; also other lines connecting with the tunnel and running into other localities. "Last year It was my privilege to introduce a proposed law to connect the Kayonne Bridge with the State Highway route which will connect with the tunnel. "It might not be amiss to mention here the fact that other constructive work done by the Republicans in the Legislature in recent years is the bridge from Perth Am-boy to Staten Island and Elizabeth-port to Staten Island across the Arthur Kills. These bridges will also be connected w'th boulevards under the new State Highway program. "This year the honor was bestowed upon me to introduce and have passed by the Legislature the law for the construction of a bridge by the Port of New York Authority from Bayonne to Staten Island.

Preliminary work is now being done on this project. THRKE BRIDGES. "In the very rear future the work will begin, and it will not be long before we have three bridges from New Jersey over to Staten Island. "In my opinion the Bayonne Bridge will certainly be a great benefit to the people of Hudson County so that with the bridge on one side and the tunnel on the other side, together with the boulevards that are being built by the State Highway Commission, Hudson County has been well favored. HOPE OP VICTORY.

"And now, my friends, my thought is just this: If you members of the County Committee representing the Republican party in Hudson County, can do things of a constructive nature for the benefit and advantage of your people, the Jersey City Mayor Talks to a Big Gathering of Democrats At the Court House In Hackensack. SCORES TERM AMENDMENT By EDWIN- F. CORRISTOX. Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City, the State Democratic leader, continued his campaign against tho constitutional amendment providing that New Jersey elect Its governors every presidential election, address, ing eight hundred Bergen County Democrats at the Hackensack court house last night. The mayor attacked the amendment as a most dastardly piece of politics prompted by a desire for partisan advantage." Continuing he said: "Republi.Mn leaders of the state believe such an amendment will give their Gubernatorial candi date a chance of being elected on tne coat-tails of the presidential nominee." Hague't mission did not terminate with his attack upon the amendment which will be offered to the people of New Jersey at a special election next September.

Before departing, he preached a sermon on organization. He stressed the fact that organisations are not built overnight, but are rather the result of sincere, continued diligent work, RECOGNIZES VAN BUSKIRK After he had mentioned Judge George Van Busklrk as the counts-leader he said: "If those at the head organize and portect the party Interests, there is no question, but the Republicans here will be shocked by surprise." "In the past you found Democratic representatives shirking their responsibilities and there were no local tickets to work for. Nothing but defeat can follow If that condition is permitted to exist. "I am told there are sixty-five clubs In the various municipalities of your county. If you are sincere, your success is assured.

We find thousands moving Into Bergen County from New York City and Hudson County. If they are properly handled and properly supervised, there Is every assurance of your carrying the county In the short future. "As leader of this state I have the privilege to be frank. "I'm ashamed of anyone who assumes responsibility, but there Is no reason to shirk your duty." THE ELECTION BOARDS "It Is a simple question. Your election boards must be organized.

When election officers betray your party, what else can you expect but defeat? If they are sincere you will find the difference. "We are active In our efforts for the party in Hudson County and that is the reason we are successful. "The bridge and tunnel are the keynote of your success, and If you perfect your organization Bergen County will become one of the greatest Democratic strongholds in the state. "I presume that one reason for your condition Is, not because there BUY BY ASK A Driver Given Summons Has No Driver's License. Last night, Henry Hendrlckson of Oradell.

"Years ago there were In Bergen County two factions within the Re publican ranks. One was led by Senator William B. former aovernor, and ths other by a group of office-seekers who became per turbed because they could not domi nate the affairs of the party. At a meeting of the County Committee one nlRht In May, they 'pack ed the house," as the flappers used to say, and decided to bounce the Senator from the leadership. A triumvirate was elected to guide the destinies of the party.

"Two days afterwards one of the triumvirs came forth with a statement to the effect that he could not be a part of the trio and this left but two triumvirs." "Listen, old fallow," said the listener from his cradle, "howinhell could there be two triumvirs when the third was missing? Don't you know that two do not make for a triumvirate? Ths trlumvera to exist must number three. Your educa tlon has been sadly neglected. But go on. "There were rumors." the father started to continue his tale. "Same old bunk," Interrupted the child.

"My investigations Into ths activities of those days leads me to believe that there were more mors than anything else. "I suppose, my father, you are about to tell me that the opposition reorg iniied and found another to oomplete the trlumvlraa. Remsm ber I asked for a story which would help my education.

IMBED A ill Addresses County Committee In People's Palace Reviews Accomplishments of Party In Nation and State. JWNKS COOLIDGE WILL RUN Senator William B. Mackay, of Bergen county, was the guest and speaker of the Republican County Committee of Hudson county last evening. People's Palace, the scene of the meeting, was filled to capacity-County Chairman Thomas H. Brown presided.

A regular business meeting was held first and the Senator was then introduced. Following his address an informal reception was held. Senator Mackay being introduced to the Dew members of the committee. His reception was most enthusiastic. His address follows: EXPRESSES PLEASURE.

"It is a pleasure to attend a gathering such as this for the purpose of meeting again those whom I have endeavored to assist from time to time in years gone by for the purpose of devising scrmethlng of a constructive nature for the benefit of your county and Its people, and for the purpose of meeting those with whom I have not as yet had an opportunity to become ac quainted. "This is what can rightfully and strictly be called a political gathering of a political party, so that It would not be amiss to stress Republicanism and its accomplishments for our state. "There was a time in political history when the two dominant parties had a distrinct and certain national issue which divided men as fully and completely as a line fence divided neighboring properties. "In recent years, however, this distinction has been more or less abolished and each time party candidates have been chosen for president and vice-president of the nation, special and particular Issues have been raised which were new to the respective parties for example, In the old days It was invariably to protective tariff against free trade, and this argument was brought up each time with renewed vigor. A NEW ISSUE.

'In 1836 there was a different cry. Democrats supported McKinley with their votes and some Republicans favored Bryan and the question was "the gold standard against free silver." "In 1916 the slogan by Wilson was 'He kept us out of Harding elaborated on 'Wilson extravagance," and Coolidge said 'We must have economy and tax reduction," na so every four years the Issue changed. "Not only did Coolidge Inform the the people of his stand, but he carried it into effect to such an extent as to command today the confidence of the people and business. President Coolidge, therefore. Is entitled tt be renominated.

fact, be can and will be renominated and re-elected because with the man and women who can only vote every four years, as well at the men and women who eer-ctse their right of franchise every year In the Republican ranks, and we may add many members of the opposite political faith, his majority will be overwhelming. HAS DONE SOMETHING. "In other words, Coolidge has done something that is of a constructive nature benefiting all the people of the nation irrespective of political affiliations, and so his work stands as a monument for the past, present and future. "I have endeavored In a small way to do something of a constructive character for the Counties of Hudson and Bergen as well as the entire State of New Jersey, not with the hope of gain or reward, but with the thought In mind that I could feel some small measure of satisfaction in accomplishing something for the good of our grand old State of New Jersey, and so In 1916, after being elected to the State Senate I had the opportunity of cooperating with our United States Senator Walter E. Edge, who In that year was elected Governor of our State.

"In 1917 when the session opened. It was necessary to prepare and Introduce bills for the purpose of putting Into effect certain pledges made to the people that would mean something of value thereafter. "The bill providing for a tunnel under the Hudson River from Jersey City to New York was prepared and introduced. DELAWARE BRIDGE. "The bill providing for a bridge across the Delaware from Camden to Philadelphia was also presented, as well as law for the establishment of eight unsalaried State Highway Commissioners and a State Highway Commission.

"Moneys were raised for the last mentioned purpose by the levyii-g of a mill tax on each dollar of assessed valuation of real estate and the moneys were raised for the tunnel and bridge by the Issue of late bonds approved by the people at an election held for that pur-Pose. With the advent of the automo bile these three projects were Tt ally necessary to the welfare of our State. It meant that New Jersey, lying between the two great states of New York and Pennsylvania, would be connected on one end by a bridge and on the other end by a tunnel so as to maintain what night be termed a continuous road-Way through, these States. "The State Highway Commission organized and proceeded with its 'ork. Since that time hundreds of miles of beautiful state highways have been completed and a hew program has since been presented whereby in the next six years New Jersey will spend approximately one hundred and sixty-four millions of dollars over a period of six years.

"Bergen and Hudson Counties, as well as the other counties, will materially benefit by this proposition which I win refer to later on. HOLLAND TUNNEL. "The Camden-Philadelphia Bridge, With its span of seventeen hundred and fifty feet, is now completed and in operation. The Holland Tunnel from Jersey City to New York will opened this year to traffic. "Therefore, we can look back "pon the past with the feeling that the Republican party has done ornethlng worth while for the state and Its people.

"Later on In a small way I start-o what ir known as the Hudson Kiver Bridge project. All of the necessary to be passed in New Jey, New York and Washington RA Valves Fittings and plumbing fixtures A DEALER. SUPPLIES AND Wm. Roethel's Going Out of Business Main Street and Banta Place 5," GEO. M.
