TOO MAMY

DERELICTS AT LASOE In Cumberland County last week Elwoori Flowers, better known ss •Chippy.” was eentenc«d to senre from 20 to 20 years In Stste'e prison for the murder of his sister, aa the result •! a quarrel over money and rum. which she had hidden away to prevent him drlnk’ng. This ends the career of a man who ahould have been under restraint for years. Flowers was a mental derelict when sober, and when drinking, which he did whenever he could get anything to drink, he was dangerous. Some years ago he made an attack on the late Thomas Vayhew. in Millville, which nearly resulted fatally, and for which he served time. When released from prison he returned to Millville, kept fairly straight for a time and then drifted' to Bridgeton, where he -has since resided until the fatal quarrel of July 4. when ip a drunken gage he ended the life of the sie-

THE HOTEL

PHILIP BAKER Wildwood is in the midst of a campaign to sell stock in sufficient

ter. who was making a home for him. with aa axe. Flowers ahould never have bsen released from restraint. Wb«o his former prison term expired be should have been placed under restraint where he would have been usable to harm Innocent and far more useful people. The career of this man is lost rnother example of the failure of our .aws sad authorities to provide for such derelicts where they would be Infinitely better off asd at the eame time unable to harm others. As toon, however, as such s suggestion Is made such e law advocated, immediately the rry goes up that It Is an Interferes* with personal liberty. The eestlmealaUsts who raise this cry little think of the value

of the 11'

menace to. and the personal liberty they cut shor* The general public, however. wUl some day become aroused to this danger and then there will be enlightened legislation enacted that will provide safe homes for derelicts of the "Chippy" Flowers class and such iii u rue re as that of Independence Day will not longer stain our court records.

BREAKING INTIO THE BIG LEAGUE

] hove them and the Treasury Department had to lock the "cart heels” up again In the vaults. I Now the Treasury Department: Is considering relieving the demand for small bills by making | one piece of paper do the work of | two. In other words by issuing , a big sum of 92 bills Instead of | so many one's. The pr-.ple do not | like the 12 bill and It remains to i in how the Treasury Department will make out in forcing upon them something they do not even though that some-

thing be money.

volume td build a 200-room modern, fire-proof, beach front hotel, to be kept open the year around from present Indications wlli put it across. There is no question that a hotel of the character of the proposed Hotel Philip Baker will pay. and pay well, and there U no question but that the energy and enthusiasm of H. Foster Goalln, president of the Hoiel Company, willnot only assure the success of the stock sale, but also of the operation of the hostelry Itself. The Hotel Flanders, In Ocean City. Was a community enterprise, Anenced locally, and the fact that It has been turning away guests all season because of lack of sufficient rooms, and that It now must enlarge Its dining room to accommodate Its vis,tors, proves tnat It is filling a local ne, d that has long existed, but had not been fully recognised until about two

years ago.

Wildwood needs its modern hotel as mush as Oceat City needed :nd It 'will pay •qually as well, or better, for itwlll not have aa large an Initial coat and therefore lees investment upon which dividends must be paid. A particularly unique feature of the Wildwood proposition Is that no one person is solicited to take more than one share of stock —and Is not permitted to own more than five. This will Insure a large number of stockholders, with the interest of the hotel heart, and will at the same e make It unnecessary for the iks to carry the burden of large stock subscriptions, which Is i ally tbe case in any community

enterprise.

RAILIHGS OH THE BOARDWALK

It lx gratifying that th e City of Sea Isle City bas seen Its way dear to construct additional boardwalk, to the south of the old boardwalk. Every extension to the boardwalk Is a valuable asset to the city. sii>i worth all It costs In tbe additional taxes. If any. that will be required to meet

the cost.

But the TIMES has frequeatly heard the expression, and Itself feels, that It would be better to extend the boardwalk If there is not enough money to place railing or both sides of the walk for the protection of persons using It, as well as for Us appearance. The TIMES has always contend-

The Same Writing Westfield, N. J. Standard: Some have a mania for writing their names in places of public resort. They should note that stepe are being taken at Ge“.ysburg National Park, against those who deface the tablets mt that historic spot by writing their napes on them. Many sacred spots, shrines of history or natural beauty, have been marred by tbe people who Insist on writing their autographs In such spots, ft seems to destroy the sac.edBesr of stKih a place to see a lot of names scrawled over them. Those woo feel a desire to leave a record of their presence In the world, ahould accomplish It by doing some useful thing that people will remember.

Law of Supply and Demand Gloucester County Democrat: It Is seldom that the law of supply and demand Is better illustrated than by the present condition of the tomato market. At this season the rule Is that the market for this vegetable Is overstocked, and prices do not warrant gathering the crop and sending It to market. No such condition exists now. Tomatoes are gold—30 cents a pound— $3.60 to 110 a basket. Boadelde markets sell them at 40 cents a quart. In Rhode Island last week the writer saw them offered st 26 cents s pound at ' th# 'rokdslde markets, "grown on this farm.”

Prohibition Eafi

Philadelphia Ledger: The word from Swampecott received In 1 Washington will be pleating neither to politicians nor the more fanatical "dry*.” That word Is that General Andrew* will be backed to the limit In bis reorganization of the prohibition enforcement units. This is logical and might have been expected. The duty of enforcements rests mainly upon the Treasury Department. That department Is a part of the executive domain. Ita head Is a part of the Administration, actions may be taken a* the sets at the AdmlnlMtratloa. Undoubtedly the storm that General Andrew-!. has raised was foreseen and discounted by the White House before the r.-<>rgaaUatton was be-
