Parkway Committee Asks Co-operation Of Local Citizens 5ays Proposed Summit Avenue Route Would Delay Progress Of Woodbridge Township. A letter, stating the advantages of he proposed Edison Parkway as igainst the disadvantages of the Summit avenue route, is being sent o all the citizens of Woodbridge 'ownship, a'nd the City of Perth Am- oy, by the Mayor's Committee of oth municipalities. The letter reads A follows; "The future of the City of Perth Lmboy and the Township of Wood- iridge is wrapped up in the enorm- )us developments that are now tak- ing place. The failure of the Edison Parkway Committees will mean de- predation in property values and loss of much business.

The manage- ment of the speedway was optimistic; very much so! Even to the extent of announcing that there would be racing there on Sunday. TJie prosecutor thought otherwise, so did the Lions Club members and hundreds of others who visited the track after the death of Bernie Katz a driver there at the opening race of the season on May 10.

Stephen Woods, of 210 Watchung avenue, Upper Montclair, driver of one of the three cars in the puzz- ling crash on the super-highway be- tween the Clover Leaf and Avenel street, shortly before 11 o'clock last Friday, died at 10:45 o'clock the same night from numerous broken ribs, a punctured lung and internal injuries, at the iRahway Memorial Hospital. His wife is still in a criti- cal condition at the Rahway hospital. The driver of the second car, Jack Ackoff, will be held on a technical charge of manslaughter as soon as he is released from the hospital. The other occupants of his car, Jack Gu- berman, Arthur Brody and Henry Babis are still in the hospital where their conditions are reported as im- proving. The local police have not been able to obtain a clear story as to how the accident occurred because there are but a few eye witnesses and each one told a different story. Thomas M.

Laing received cuts on the left hand and left knee. Both were treated at the Rahway Memo- rial Hospital. Popular Assistant Prosecutor Who Worked Hard In Speed- way Investigation. Voodbridge Lions Oppose Race Track Club Again Discusses Local Speedway and Declare Against It. Discussion of the Woodbridge peedway was resumed Monday night at the weekly luncheon of the Woodbridge Lions Club and the members again declared their posi- tion as being opposed to the races held there. The club members made it clear that they are primarily interested in the safety of the peo- ple who attend the races and are exposed to danger white in the grand stand. It was also the opinion of the Lions that an extremely serious hazard exists in the trees that grow near- the track. Boys climb these trees in order to see the races. There have been several instances of youngsters falling out of the trees and breaking arms or legs. Another danger hooked-up with the trees is the fact that the chil- dren hovering about the trees and on the ground beneath them arein grave danger in cases where cars run wild and jump over the side of the track. This has happened in two of the fatal accident cases on the record of the track. The meeting was well attended and there was the usual community singing. The meeting was a socia one and aside from the discussion of the race track there was no other business considered. with the folks of Woodbridge. climax of another death with the nt- DOUGLAS M.

The decayed structure beneath the western sec- tion of the track. The highly inflam- nble, oily wood of the track, the dry boards and planks that compose the grand stand with its notoriously In- adequate means of exit—all these brought the people to a realization Unit u death Imp existed in the midst of the township. The report of the prosecutor is AS •uiuise as in possible in dealing with SM many glaring flaws. The defects ure listed und then the protective measures necessary are listed. These provisions must be installed before Uio track can be considered reason- ably safe, the report sets forth. There are a great many of these pro- visions and there is a good reason for each. The report is clear-cut and to the point and it pictures a most astonishingly dangerous condition; one that could not be ignored. The word went out from the Township ollkials that there will be no racing at the speedway Sunday. The otlicialn had received the report of the prosecutor and they announc- ed that until they had time to study it, the racing is off. More effective still came the ulti- matum from the prosecutor that if the changes listed in the report, are not made the Vice and Immorality Act will be invoked to close the speedway on Sunday. Members of the Lions Club and others who made personal inspection of the track declared it was an out- rage to attempt to hold races on such a dangerous course. The Lions saw an additional danger to the public in the fact that the decayed condition of the track might send a car plung- ing among the thousands of specta- tors that usually fill the grand stand at races. There was the possibility that a wrecked car might catch fir© and spread flames to the stand caus- ing 1 untold horror. If public senti- Cpntinueil on page jive in the opposite direction.

Discussion of the Woodbridgepeedway was resumed Monday

night at the weekly luncheon of theWoodbridge Lions Club and themembers again declared their posi-tion as b e i n g opposed to theraces held there. The club membersmade it clear that they are primarilyinterested in the safety of the peo-ple who attend the races and areexposed to danger white in the grandstand. It was also the opinion ofthe Lions that an extremely serioushazard exists in the trees that grownear- the track. Boys climb thesetrees in order to see the races. Therehave been several instances ofyoungsters falling out of the treesand breaking arms or legs.

Another danger hooked-up withthe trees is the fact that the chil-dren hovering about the trees and onthe ground beneath them are ingrave danger in cases where carsrun wild and jump over the side ofthe track. This has happened in twoof the fatal accident cases on therecord of the track.

But the amazing revelations thatwere there for anyone who cared tolook the place over. The decayedstructure beneath the western sec-tion of the track. The highly inflam-nble, oily wood of the track, the dryboards and planks that compose thegrand stand with its notoriously In-adequate means of exit—all thesebrought the people to a realizationUnit u death Imp existed in the midstof the township.

The report of the prosecutor is AS•uiuise as in possible in dealing withSM many glaring flaws. The defectsure listed und then the protectivemeasures necessary are listed. Theseprovisions must be installed beforeUio track can be considered reason-ably safe, the report sets forth.There are a great many of these pro-visions and there is a good reasonfor each. The report is clear-cut andto the point and it pictures a mostastonishingly dangerous condition;one that could not be ignored.

The word went out from theTownship ollkials that there will beno racing at the speedway Sunday.The otlicialn had received the reportof the prosecutor and they announc-ed that until they had time to studyit, the racing is off.

More effective still came the ulti-matum from the prosecutor that ifthe changes listed in the report, arenot made the Vice and ImmoralityAct will be invoked to close thespeedway on Sunday.

Members of the Lions Club andothers who made personal inspectionof the track declared it was an out-rage to attempt to hold races on sucha dangerous course. The Lions sawan additional danger to the public inthe fact that the decayed conditionof the track might send a car plung-ing among the thousands of specta-tors that usually fill the grand standat races. There was the possibilitythat a wrecked car might catch fir©and spread flames to the stand caus-ing1 untold horror. If public senti-

' i irostone is using its Immense re-MIIII'CS in rubber plantations, manu-

:'., rlnrinE equipment, warehousing•'mil service dealer organization toimport the principle that the pros-

,,vity of the local dealer and mer-!.||.,nt. is vital to the growth of everyi,immunity," says Hugh M. Tomp-lj,,s. manager of the Municipal Ser-vii•(• Station, Inc., Firestone distribu-t,,,-i in Woodbridge. "The company'snational tire distribution of 26,000outlets in built around local organi-ziitinns which are part of the com-munity, in contrast to mail order| lllll?€f.

"Values are on the side of the

manufacturer and the local dealer.The mail order houses buy their tiresfrom n manufacturer who will notput his own name on them. Firestonemakes its own product, puts its nameon it, and sells it through local deal-ers who spend their money locally.There is no jobber or middleman ormail order system involved.

"Our sales are promoted by localnewspaper advertising supported bynational advertising, and the mail or-der houses through an expensivecatalog, which isn't even printed lo-cally. The mail order houses have tomaintain central •warehouses just asFirestone does, and they have tokeep large organizations tabulating,corresponding and shipping at dis-tant points, which is a much more ex-pensive way of operating than thrua dealer organization."

According to Mr. Tompkins, theaverage motorist is beginning to un-derstand that he can do better forhimself as well as for local businessby walking into a Firestone dealer'sservice store. We have cross sectionsof the tires, he said, to show thatFirestone offers more tire, for thesame money.

OUT President's ProclamationTo Managers of Our Stores;

At a Board of Directors' meeting, weproclaimed it a duty to keep our workersemployed through this Economic Depres-sion period.

To accomplish our aim, we decided torun a sale, sacrificing our entire profits byreducing our price from $22.50 to $17.50.The additional business we will do, willenable us to keep our shops working.

The benefit derived by the public fromthis Sale, we can sum up by stating thatat $17.50 our suits and topcoats are nowbeing offered at the same price they weresold for in the year of 1915.

As I said before there is a widedifference of opinion as to the rela-tive safety of this track, but eventhose experts with whom I have con-sulted and who say that the track issafe, sugges t additional precautionswhich should be taken.

In order to give the TownshipCommittee time to consider this mat-ter and take some action in relationto it, it is our purpose if the changesare not made to take advantage ofthe Vice and Immorality Act to pre-vent any races being held on thistrack next Sunday.

The changes are as follows:1. The construction of a fifteen

foot hard surface apron curved as itjoins the track so that there is nosharp angle.

2. The placing of round head boltsin the outer guard rail instead of thesquare headed bolts used at present.

3. Repair of track surface and sup-ports.

In addition to these precautionsthe track should be better policedttrees surrounding it should ,be cutdown, and if and when thecontinues, after each day's „oil and other substances which tendto make the track slippery should beremoved.

I am not entirely satisfied withthe guard fail on the ouisidfe of thetrack. There have been two fatal ac-cidents in prior years when driverswent through this rail. Since thesetwo accidents, however, at the BUg-gestion of officials of the AmericanAutomobile Association a cable hasbeen put around the track. Thiscable undoubtedly considerably rein-forced the guard rail, and I am in-formed that on the occasions whendrivers have hit this guard rail sincethe placing of the cable, it has keptthem on the track, and no one hasgone through it.

So far as the Prosecutor's Office isconcerned its future course will bedetermined by whether or not theparties have made the changes rec-ommended in order to bring about agreater degree of safety, and whataction, if any, the Woodbridge Town-ship Committee takes.

D Good Road Ahead

GET RID OF ITDue to the alertness of Prosecutor Douglas M. Hick* and

his assistant, Jame.s Wight, the real facts regarding the con-dition of the Woodbridge Speedway have been brought tolight. Seemingly these condition* had escaped the observa-tion or at least their importance escaped the attention of thelocal authorities, even after various unfortunate riders hadridden to death on the track.

The prosecutor, and his assistant deserve Unstinted creditand praise for the thoroughness with which they went intothe investigation of the track. There was no pussy-footing.The whole track and the grand stand were carefully inspectedand then the findings of the investigation were analyzed. Ac-tion, swift and sure followed. The things that are neededin order to make the track safe—a? safe a3 such a ricketycontraption can be made — are listed clearly and ap-pended is a demand that these things be done.

The length of that list of needed safeguards gives someidea of the wretched condition at the track in the past. Howdid the officials of the A. A. A. and other officials whose busi-ness it is to protect human life and property ever permit sucha condition to exist? The track has been running for threeyears. Each year there was at least one fatal accident. Whywas the thing permitted to go on until a wideawake prose-cutor got on the job?

And aside from considerations of safety what real bene-fit to Woodbridge or to the county for that matter is thisSpeedway? Its operation on Sunday is a noisy, vicious dese-cration of the Sabbath, for gain.

It has brought an element! to the township that is not de-sirable. It has fostered the business of a resort that has beenin the limelight of police publicity more than* once—a placethat was padlocked and immediately defied the law by open-ing up on the other side of the same building.

The speedway has brought into a respectable residentialcommunity a great many new conditions, all of them objec-tionable and harmful to that community. For the present,at least it is closed. It should remain closed. It is unsightlyand in every way undesirable, a blemish on an otherwise ex-ceptionally select residential community.

It is time for the people of this community to assertthemselves and demand that the racetrack with all its evilsbe done away with. The prosecutor has done his duty. The

AN IMPORTANT DAYTuesday, May 5, 1931, was an important day in the his-

tory of accident prevention. At that time a campaign wasstarted to reach all the 27,000,000 school children of the Uni-ted States with safety education, instead of only the 13,000,-000 that have been reached in the past. The campaign is de-signed for the child in the old red schoolhouse at the cross-roads as well as the child in the modern million-dollar metro-politan school.

This new work—which is being undertaken by the Na-tional Bureau of Casualty and Surety Underwriters—hasgrown from a study of automobile accident statistics cover-ing the years between 1927 and 1930, In that time fatali-ties to adults and children of pre-school age increased 25 percent, and seven per cent, respectively—but fatalities to chil-dren in school were reduced ten per cent. Thousands of chil-dren's lives are being saved annually by safety education—lives that would otherwise be wasted.

As a 'starting point, a teacher's guide book has been is-sued, with a foreward by the United States Commissioner ofEducation, William John Cooper, who has made a strong ap-peal to schools to co-operate in the work. No effort is being

rest is up to the governing body of the township. The latter I made to establish safety education as a separate study. Thebody must recognize the will of the people here. Let thepeople make their will known in terms that can not be mis-taken. Let's get rid of the race track for all time and restorethe self-respect and dignity of Woodbridge.

GRAUSAM'S FIGHTThe result of Tuesday's primaries so far as Woodbridge

is concerned is important chiefly on account of the vote castfor Township Committeeman Jacob Grausam in the race forfreeholder on the Democratic ticket. As a member of theTownship Committee Grausam has proved not once but manytimes that he holds duty to the community above obedience toparty expediency. For that reason there were hundreds of Re-publicans who would have liked to see him nominated for thecounty berth and elected in November. For representation onthe county board is a valuable and desirable thing for a mu-nicipality when that representation is given to a man who can

But in the primaries Grausam had an uphill Ifight. He didnot have the backing from some of his own party that he de-served. His popularity not as a politician but as a man mayhave been the reason for this. There are men who are biggerthan party lines. Such a man was Roosevelt and such a man isGrausam.

WHERE THE STRENGTH LIESAmerican government is based on the theory that those

who govern shall have the'Triinimum of power and authorityso the people can keep their individual liberties, said Gov-ernor Franklin D. Roosevelt in a recent address in New YorkCity.

Reviewing the functions of both the state and federalgovernments, Governor Roosevelt maintained that back of thr•national and state constitutions was the one thought that thegoverning authorities be not given ,broad power. He com-plained that there was an "awful lot of misinformation" aboutgovernment and that some persons even assumed that thegovernor was a "great white father."

"The government does not have omnipotent power," saidGovernor Roosevelt. "The federal constitution, after listingthe powers of the national government, specifically gives allOther powers to the states,. The state mjist not be given broadpowers to regulate your life and mine. JThat is our own task.The strength of the nation lies not in' statutes and govern-ments, but in individuals and families."

Captain Randolph often said thatthe enemy would never take himnlive; and this declaration wouldhave been verified, doubtless, it Ithad depended upon his courage toprove it. In a fair contest he seemedalmost invincible, and his name be-came a "tower of strength" to thepatriotic cause in this section.

aije. According to the National Bureauof Casualty and Surety Underwriters,it Is probable that over 0,000 lives ofchildren are being saved each year asa result ol child safety activities Intho United States. t

What la true about accidents in theUnited States finds a parallel In NewJersey. While in 1920 over 35 per centof the persons killed on the highwaysof the state were children under 15, in1930 the per cent was only 20, Un-doubtedly the children are learning toprotect themselves against the dangersof the streets In a much better waythan their elders,/-

Most of the credit for this astonishIng difference should be given to thesafety activities of the schools, bothpublic, private and parochial. It Is Inthe schools that the youngsters getworth while classroom. Instruction Insafety. In fact In a good school systemevery teacher becomes a teacher ofsafety. Day by day she attempts tobuild up good safety habits and attltudee among her children.

Most of the cities and towns of NewJersey have adopted safety as a regular'part of the elementary school cur--ri««lt)jm.'dome«t tb««« oitlea have hadrauiarkable reductions In accidents tchildren. It is unfortunate that a fewcommunities pay little or no attentionto this Important aspect of the lite ofthe child. Consequently they are not aiwell able to control accidents. Withour ever increasing traffic on our busystreets and highways and with thichild having to cross many streets ona school day, no school system can at

ford to bo without adequate safety In-struction.

By far the most valuable part of theschool program is the regular class-room Instruction in safety. As in thecaBe. of other subjects the classroomteacher holds the key position. Hereis where the youngster gets Bafety in-struction day by day. School assem-blies also provide opportunities to em-phasize various phases of safety andclub activities also are useful in Inter-esting pupils in safer methods of doingthings, Many schools use motion pic-tures and gtereoptlcon slides to advan-tage In their work.

Of course the school boy patrol Isthe best known safety activity of theschools. These are often sponsored bylocal safety councils, police depart-ments, motor clubs, the Public Service,Parent Associations juid American Re-gion Posts. In New Jersey in somecities and towns these patrols havebeen doing very tine work assistingofficers In the protection of streetcrossings. These patrols should notbe used to direct vehicular traffic butshould confine their work to regulatingthe movement of children. Accidentsat street crossings protected by Bchoolboy patrols have been practically

eliminated. The patrol therefore be-eomea a valuable part of the safetyprogram of a school particularly it theschool is In a section where there Is aheavy flow of traffic.

The safety activities of schools havebeen so successful that in a recentstudy of the National Safety Councilcovering a population of over 400,000children In various sections of theUnited States It was found that of thetotal accidents to children only 8 percent took place on the way to and frqmschool, while 40 per cent occurred athome, 22 per cent on school groundsand 17 per cent while children were atplay.

Education therefore appears to b«one of the best answers to the prob-lem of Increasing accidents. LJeBijtlqn can provide regulation, controlami enforcement;'experts'cart Q'o'nuiCtvto study conditions and provide for in-creased traffic—but with all these wemust educate the Individual who In thefinal analysis can do so much to pre-vent accidents. If we could reach themoVorlet through education as well aswe are apparently reaching the chil-dren in our schools half the battlewould be won.

There are only a few more weeks of school and in theseweeks occur the" final set of tests. These tests mean much tosome of us and when we think of the result? that hard workwell-placed will achieve, we should be fired with ambition tofinish in a blaze of glory, despite theweather and pre-vacationatmosphere.

To get high marks in these last tests may mean much inthe future if not now. Many a Sophomore or Junior, need-ing a mark a bit higher than his average to land him in linefor a key in his Senior year, can surprise himself and othersby putting a bit of extra time on his studies. It must be aterrible feeling to have made marks high enough for a key inyour Senior year and then to realize that one or two lazystreaks in the Sophomore or Junior years have deprived youof that honor.

And did you know that "a foolwho knows that he knows nothingisn't as big a fool a? the fool whothinks he knows it all?"

The Dial of April. 1912 gives usthis bit of wit about Latin. No doubtmany agree:"All the people died who spoke it.

During the course of an interview with Mr. Benkert, oneof our reporters was reminded of the fact that Mr. Benkerthad written a letter to the HIGH SCHOOL NEWS requestingsobriquets for the high school athletic teams. We take thisopportunity of giving a prominent young man of the Sopho-more Class all the credit and thanking him for responding toMr. Benkert's request—but he was the only one! Wre thinkthat when a coach or athletic instructor trys to inspire moreinterest in his teams by suggesting such a campaign as this,the students should spend a few minutes to co-operate bywriting a letter to the NEWS.

Mr. Benkert has stated that unless more school-spirit andinterest in athletics is shown they will be a complete "flop"next year. It surely has reached the point where a coach'spatience is taxed to the limit when a baseball player fallsasleep on first base. There is only one thing which is shownby the backing gi?en to the baseball and basketball teams,and that ia that the students can support only a winning team.

Is Clara Bow the victim of herown talent?

Will the public, having known heronly as a gay-hearted, joy-loving,oxcitementrseekine youngster, allowher to exercise her talents in herchosen field of dramatic portrayal?

These are the questions whichhave been puzzling Paramount's lit-tle redhead for several years past,nnd now, with her first real dramaticrole before the public, in "Kick In,'the attraction at the Majestic Theatre starting Sunday, she is anxiously awaiting the verdict.

Director after director has seenin Clara Bow the attributes whicmake for lasting stardom in deep-down emotional roles. Frank Tuttie lauded her versatility when, ii"Her Wedding Night," he introduceher in farce-comedy. Richard Walace, who directed Ruth Chattertoiin "The Right to Love," sees iiClara Bow an outstanding dramatipersonality.

No »tory of the intimate life of • -;he reporters of today's new* sensa-tions nas aroused such controversyamong newspapermen, themselves.Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur,authors of the play, are famoustormy petrels of Chicago journal-sms. Both have been through themill, and the settings of this pictureare as familiar to them as their ownhomes.

Many of the characters are saidto have been based on real life per-sonalities. Many reporters thoughtthey recognized in the character of"Walter Burns" a famous Chicagomanaging editor, under whom manyof them had worked, and a wave ofcontroversy in newspaperdom as towhether this managing editor hadactually done the things in real lifethat Walter Burns is credited withdoing in the picture.

to display those fine acting talentswhich, for so long, have remainedhidden.'7

"Clara Bow brings to her dra-matic, emotional role in 'Kick In,'says Wallace, 'all the fire and nervewhich made her the favorite of theflappers, but, in interpreting the ex-acting rolo of a girl who fights tholaw and the temptations of lawless-ness for love and her man, sheevinces, a deep-felt and compellingunderstanding of character which isseldom equalled and never surpass-ed, by any of the screen's establish-ed dramatic favorites.'"

i combine while it is very likely thatE. Pomeroy and E. Kteutsberg willcomprise the other duo. The Avenelsquad has been practicing for thepast week and the various individualsare rapidly rounding into form. Theaddition of Emil Kruutsberg and F.Ballinger will greatly strengthen theAvenel contingent in its bid for theMiddlesex County Crown. At }hepresent writing the Seminary TennisClub, of Rahway, looks to be theclass pf the League. Not forgettingwhat the Avenel crew accomplishedin basketball circle* last year Rah-way will attempt to "spike theirguns" in the net gsme. However theboys from Steeltown should comehome in second place; nofl a negli-gable achievement considering thatthis is their second year in top-flightcompetition.
