Glenwood For 

Mail Change 

A report on the Glenwood 

Association mall poll to date, 

was released this week. It shows 

a heavy favoring majority.. 

Of 338 voting cards sent to 

members, 238 have been returned 

up to the present. Of 

these 160 favor the change in 

mall delivery, 69 are opposed 

and 9, had no choice. 

Incidentally 50 new members 

were added to the association's 

roster making It one of the 

Township's largest civic groups. 

The Short Hills postal plebiscite 

being conducted by Glenwood 

Association and Short Hills' 

Association is still incomplete 

and so no figures are yet available. 

Cards for voting have been in 

hands of association m«mtwo 

weeks but 

are on 

or as one man put it 

at give a damn." 

All that can be said at this 

time, is that the Short Hills 

Association membership shows 

a decided trend In opposition to 

door to door delivery while 

Glenwood takes the reverse 

position. 

Not only are men of Short 

active In conducting the 

ous pols but now in addli 

it is said its women folks 

rising in their might. 

Turning from pots and pans 

are reported penning peto 

the Town Fathers in

lvotal point on which any

In the mean time residents 

Wyoming who have for many 

had mail delivery sans 

or R. F. D. boxes

the Township having door

"We have street signs" says

that Short Hills friends may

it owe us the same nelghrly 

assistance and courtesy?" 

' only answer to date Is that

Loan Ass'n 

Insurance of accounts up to 

$5,000 for each member by the 

Federal Savings and Loan Insurance 

Corporation was announced 

today by the Investors 

Savings and Loan Association 

of Millburn. This association 

has been operating in Millburn 

since 1926 as the Washington 

Rock Savings and Loan Association 

and recently changed its 

name to Investors. 

The association also announced 

the Opening of fulltime 

offices in the building on 

Main street formerly occupied 

by the Millburn Building and 

Loan Association. The office has 

been modernized and furnished 

with up-to-date equipment by 

the Investors Association. Roland 

L. Lewan of Millburn, who 

for the past eight years v?as 

secretary of the 'Washington 

Rock Association a part-time 

basis, is manager in full-time 

charge of the operations of the 

Investors Savings and Loan Association. 

Jointly with the announcement 

of the insurance of accounts 

for each member, the 

association announced the acquisition 

of certain assets from 

the old Millburn Building and 

Loan Association which is in 

liquidation. The assets which 

were acquired permit the Investors 

Savings and Loan Association 

to give shareholders of the 

Millburn, insured accounts equal 

to forty per cent of the book 

value of their holdings in the 

old association. In addition to 

the office building, the assets 

acquired from the Millburn association 

consisted of $305,000 

in cash and $231,000 in seasoned 

home mortgages. 

In making the announcement 

for the Investors Savings and 

Loan Association Mr. Lewan 

said, "The insurance of accounts 

by the Federal Savings 

nil Loan Insurance Corporaii! 

yives a guarantee of safety 

to each member by an instrumentality 

of the United 

States Government. In addition 

to being insured, the association 

is a member of the Federal 

Home Loan Bank System, which 

is the central credit reservoir 

for the thrift and home-financing 

institutions of the country. 

Directors of the association 

thought it was to the best interest 

of the members to acquire 

the insurance protection, 

and the acquisition of the assets 

frem the liquidating Millburn 

Association now permits 

operating a full-time office that 

is open daily to serve the thrift 

and home-financing needs of 

the community. This association 

now has total resources of approximately 

$800,000." 

Mr. Lewan has lived in Millburn 

for nine years, and he 

takes over full-time operation

Millburn Girl 

Scout Week 

To finance Girl Scout work in 

iViiilbum Township, townspeople 

each year have been asked to 

make a contribution at some 

i i ' i e during the year. For the 

past few years an annual concert 

has carried the largest part 

of the budget expense but, after 

careful consideration it was 

felt that residents of Millburn 

would support a campaign for 

funds which will be launched 

on November 16th and continue 

for one week. 

This will be known as Millburn 

Girl Scout Week because 

the funds that are asked will 

be used here in Millburn for 

community girls. Each and 

every resident will be asked to 

make some contribution. 

For many this will necessarily 

be small but it will be a very 

welcome contribution nevertheless 

and will help • to carry on 

an essential effort that is providing 

enjoyment and training 

for girls of today and with eyes 

on the future, training thorn to 

ike their largest and best 

contribution to their country. 

This year between 400 and 450 

Millburn ^girls will be in scouting. 

These girls need professional 

and 'trained leadership, 

they enjoy Wysomish Lodge in 

South Mountain Reservation, 

and it all takes money. About 

$1,500 from all of Millburn 

Township will do it.

'Vagabond King' 

Paper Mill Hit 

Bob Lawrence and Dorothy 

Sandlin are again teamed in 

the leading roles of Rudolf 

Friml's "Vagabond King," at the 

Paper Mill Playhouse. There is 

plenty of swashbuckling adventure 

and glamour in the latest 

' operettas, currently drawing 

the plaudits of the Paper Mill 

audiences. It is founded on 

Justin McCarthy's, "If I Were 

King." 

Some of the finest music that 

has reached the Paper Mill 

stage, is portrayed in the three 

acts of "Vagabond King." Bob 

Lawrence, whose second • appearance 

is received with rounds 

of applause, gives a convincing 

portrayal of Francois Villon, 

poet and outlaw of mediaeval 

Paris. His ringing voice gives 

fall justice to, "The Song of 

Vagabonds" and "Only A 

Rose." 

Beauteous Dorothy Sandlin 

in r usual charming manner, 

makes a gay and vivacious Lady 

Katherine. She is a great favorite 

of Paper Mill audiences. 

"In The Spell of The Night," 

iich was written especially by

To The Editor 

Editor, The Item: 

A fortnight ago I wrote letters 

to Congressman Kean and 

Senators Barbour and Smathers 

expressing my opposition to 

the proposed drafting of 18 and 

19-year-old boys, on the ground 

of the average emotional immaturity 

of this group. Their 

replies brought out, wholly 

aside from the question at Issue, 

what seems to me to be 

a very dangerous trend in our 

national legislature. The reply 

of Senator Smathers was noncommittal 

and unsatisfactory, 

simply thanking me for my letter, 

and stating that such letters 

were of great assistance to 

him in making his decisions. 

Congressman Kean wrote that 

he felt it his duty to support 

the proposed draft, because "the 

President, the Secretary of War, 

and the Chief of Staff all say 

it is necessary." Below is Senator 

Barbour's letter in full and 

n copy of my reply to it. 

United States Senate, 

Committee on Naval Affairs 

October 24, 1942 

* 

Dr. Thayer A. Smith, 

Short Hills, N. J. 

Dear Dr. Smith: 

Thank you very much for 

your communication giving me 

your views relative to the possible 

drafting of young men 

between the ages of 18-19 for 

our armed forces. I have a son 

who will shortly fall into that 

category and I am naturally 

very concerned over the necessity 

of his being drafted. 

However, I have complete 

faith in our Commander-in- 

Chief and Army and Navy officials 

and it is inconceivable 

to me that they would sponsor 

legislation to draft our 

youth between the ages of 18-19 

unless the very safety of our 

country depends upon this. To 

vote in favor of the drafting 

of young men between the ages 

of 18-19 would be a very difficult 

decision for me to make, 

because I love my son very 

dearly as other parents love 

their sons. But, as I have said 

previously, I am quite sure that 

our high ranking officials would 

not ask for the drafting of these 

young men unless they sincerely 

felt the situation facing our 

country today has reached - 

precarious state, and the future 

of this nation with all its principles 

and traditions was in 

. grave danger of destruction. 

With appreciation again for 

your views and kindest personal 

regards, believe me 

Most sincerely, 

W. WARREN BARBOUR 

Oct. 26, 1942 

Senator W. Warren Barbour, 

U. S. Senate, 

Washington, D. C. 

Dear Mr. Barbour: 

Thank you very much for 

your reply to my letter regarding 

the drafting of the 18 and 

19-year-old boys. I regret, of 

course, that you do not agree 

with me, but, frankly, I am 

very much disturbed at the 

reasons you give for cominj 

your decision in the matter. 

If you had stated that you 

had made a careful study of 

this question; had reviewed the 

testimony of leading psychiatrists 

as to the emotional fitness 

and endurance of these 

'boys who are scarcely more 

than children; had studied the 

experience in this age group in 

former wars; in short, had 

looked at the question from all 

angles, and, after mature consideration, 

had arrived at 

decision, I should have felt that 

you had satisfactorily discharged 

the responsibilities of 

your position. . 

When, however, you state that 

your decision is based on the 

sponsorship of the Commander-in-Chief 

and Army and Navy 

officials, I can not help but 

wonder what the function of 

the Senate is to be, if the Senators 

are simply going to 'rubber-stamp' 

the recommendations 

of these officials, however 

fine they may be. Perhaps Raymond

Smathers' Hard Luck 

Last week state newspapers received photographs showing 

Vice-President Wallace and Senator Smathers "talking politics" 

as they paced the Atlantic City boardwalk during an inspection of 

state war production plants. 

The pictures came from Smathers' headquarters and no sooner 

were they received, than announcement was made the "inspection" 

had been postponed until after election. 

This week Senator Robert F. Wagner of New York, writes 

his fellow lawmaker regarding an invitation to speak for Smathers 

in New Jersey, stating in part: "it would be a pleasure to accept 

such an invitation. After canvassing the situation however, 

I am very happy to say the people of New Jersey scarcely need 

any confirmation by me***" 

Senator Smathers seems to be having a run of hard luck in 

rounding up administration supporters or colleagues willing to 

stick their necks out in his behalf. None it appears care to be 

tarred with the Hague stick which their coming to the state at 

this time would mean. 

New Jersey voters should be as informed on the Smathers- 

Hague tie-up as anyone, supporting Albert W. Hawkes at the polls 

November 3 for this reason if no other. 

Happy Days Here Again? 

It will be welcome news to a lot of old timers to see prohibition 

again come to the front as a victory measure. If nothing else 

it will show that war has not changed entirely, from 1917 to now. 

Many Item readers, men in particular, have missed the smell 

of fermenting home brew in the house and bewailed the fact the 

only use for the family bath tub was for the weekly dip. 

Ten years ago it was the exceptional house that had no crocks 

of malt and hops sizzling in the cellar and no spots on the living 

room ceiling where the stuff splashed when opened for visiting 

firemen. 

Too. the medicine cabinet was the real thing, stocked with 

bottles of glycerine to smooth up the bath tub gin and other bottles 

of Juniper extracts for its flavoring. 

Cellar rumpus rooms really began when home stills went to 

the junk pile and prune whiskey, grape brandy and other experimental 

products became available on retail shelves. 

Them as say "home ain't what it used to be" are anxiously 

waiting until after election to see how prohibition fares at the 

hands of congress. If the vote goes as they fear all can sing "Happy 

i are Here Again." 

Millburn Needs A "Czar"" 

It begins to look as though what Millburn Township needs is 

a "Czar" the same as baseball and the movies, some one to really 

be the last word In our strife for a balanced ration of rural atmosphere 

and the simple life. 

Right now there has been dumped in the laps of Town Fathers 

the question of chickens in our fair burgh, than which there 

is no surer sign or sound of a dawning country morn. 

On the heels of the poultry problem will come street signs and 

their portend of mail delivery, unwanted visitors and bill collectors. 

Whore is there f>n elective body capable and willing to determine 

where "rural" begins and ends? 

Tf WP are too rustic for street designations then cows, chickens 

ÎH iîsrs phould be ri?ht un our alley. On the other hand if these

[ October 30, 1942 ] The Millburn &*> Short Hills ITEM 

Fewer "Luxury" 

Vegetables 

Township housewives had 

better begin soon to make plans 

for meals in which fewer of 

such items as cantaloupes, watermelons, 

cucumbers, cauliflower, 

celery and green peppers 

are Included. 

V. S. Secretary of Agriculture 

Wickard recently made the announcement 

that a policy of 

curtailing the production of 

certain "luxury" vegetables 

would definitely be adopted as 

a result of the war situation. At 

present, the ruling will affect 

the southern states chiefly, 

where winter supplies of vegetables 

now are being grown. 

This will mean that the 

homemaker may find her menu 

limited to those vegetables 

which the federal government 

"calls "essential to the nation's 

wartime diet." Production goals 

announced for southern vegetable 

growers for this coming 

winter call for increases of from 

IS to 20 per cent in carrots, 

lima beans, snap beans and 

onions. Acreages for green peas, 

cabbage, fresh tomatoes, beets 

and spinach are left at about 

the levels of the previous year. 

In determining which are the 

essential vegetables, length of 

period of production, perishability, 

bulk, loss in handling, 

and food value in terms of proteins, 

minerals and vitamins 

will be considered.

Every home in America has a job to da Every 

member of the family is going to have to do more 

- /ith lets, conserve resources, and turn their bands to 

things they may never have done before. 

Even such little things as changing a fuse yourself, 

or keeping your appliances clean and in good 

order, are going to mean a lot not only to us as a 

utility company, but to you in maintaining good gas 

and electric service. 

For we are having to do more with leas. We are 

making every effort to maintain our high standard of 

service, but we are seriously handicapped by a shortage 

in men and materials, and by the need for conserving 

oil and rubber. 

Our problem of man power is also a serious one. 

Our technical and service employees are all highly 

trained men, most of whom have spent years becoming 

proficient at their particular jobs. Now ten percent 

of our men are in military service, and many others 

have been called upon to take technical civilian jobs 

with the military or in war industry. These employees 

are impossible to replace, even with untrained men. 

Good service is as important to us as it is to you. 

and we know you will understand when we ask you to 

help. Don't make a service call unless it is absolutely 

necessary. Learn to change a fuse yourself. Keep 

your appliances in good condition. Consult your 

olumber or electrician about needed repairs. Be sure

Injuries Hex 

Blue and White 

Millburn High School footballers 

go up against two teams 

this Saturday. In addition to 

meeting Clifford Scott at East 

Orange, they are battling a team 

assembled by old Doc Injury. 

The Blue and White has had 

trouble with this aggregation 

before, but last week's game 

with Caldwell really saw the 

injuries pile up. Missing from 

this Saturday's game will be 

Captain Boiling Robertson, out 

with a sprained ankle, Bob 

Finnessey, in the hospital with 

head injuries, Bob Lincoln, still 

nursing a broken collar bone, 

Vic Lincoln, badly shaken up 

in last week's game, and Larry 

Clezen, also hurt last week. 

Clifford Scott boasts an undefeated 

record, with a groundgaining 

running and passing 

1 i ack. Their strength, however, 

lies in their stonewall defense. 

Many opponents have 

tried to crack it only to find 

themselves pushed back instead 

of forwards. 

The game will get under way 

at Clifford Scott's field in East 

Orange at 2:15. 

• 

Caldwell Downs 

Blue And White 

Scoring touchdowns in the 

second and fourth quarters, a 

highly favored Caldwell eleven 

downed the hard fighting Blue 

and White of Millburn 13-0. 

Saturday on the local field. This 

is Millburn's second defeat 

against one win in Suburban 

Conference competition. 

In the first period the victors, 

led by Alonzo Price and Jimmy 

Aulen, drove to Millburn's fifteen 

yard line before being repulsed. 

With Bob Snowden and 

Eugene Consales carrying the 

pigskin, the Blue and White 

drove to midfield as the quarter 

ended. 

Miilburn got the first break 

of the game, as early in the 

second stanza Lopresto fumbled 

one of Bob Finnessey's 

punts, and Larry Glezen, rugged 

local center, recovered. Consales 

then tossed passes to John Blau- 

It and Bob Ward to move the 

ball to Caldwell's 20. Bob Stafford 

intercepted one of Millburn's 

aerials to end the threat. 

Alter an exchange of punts 

Caldwell put on an eighty yard 

sustained drive for the game's 

first score. Aulen's brilliant 

thirty yard run featured this 

drive. Price, driving fullback of 

the visitors, scored the touchdown 

on a three yard plunge. 

The half ended shortly after 

this score. 

Caldwell completely dominated 

the third frame. Taking 

the kick-off the visitors sparked 

by Price's runs, and Aulen to 

Stafford passes, penetrated to 

Millburn's 15, where an end 

zone pass on last down failed. 

The quarter ended just as Bob 

Ward, local wingman, recovered 

a Caldwell fumble on his own 

25. 

imrn could not penetrate 

1) i heavier Caldwell defense, 

and Bob Snowden kicked to 

Midfield, where Stafford returned 

to Millburn's 25. On two 

plays Price brought the ball to 

the locals two yard stripe, 

where Stafford dove over the 

line for the touchdown. Price 

ran the extra point over. Millburn 

fought back as Snowden 

broke away for a thirty yard 

gain to the Caldwell 25. After 

driving to the 15 yard line Caldwell 

recovered a fumble to end 

the game. 

Bob Snowden gave the Caldwell 

secondary plenty to worry 

about, one of the fastest backs 

in the conference, Bob is a constant 

threat to break away. 

"Duke" Bove had the band 

well drilled, as they entertained 

the spectators with another impressive 

display at half time.

The first touchdown was 

made by A. Schroeder who recehr6d 

a lateral from J. Carlson,

line. In the third quarter, C.

team scored again by intercepting 

on the forty-five and then

Seconds Again 

Down Madison 

The Millburn Seconds scored 

their third consecutive victory 

of ..the season against the 

Madison High School Seconds 

at the High School field on 

Tuesday. The score was 31-6. 

John Bailey, dusky halfback 

for the visitors, took the opening 

kick-off and raced eighty 

yards for a touchdown giving 

Madison a temporary lead which 

they held until the middle of 

the third period. 

In the third quarter the local 

eleven led by Vic Lincoln and 

Frank Palumbo moved to Madison's 

three yard line. Two line 

plays failed and at this point 

Angelo Dilonno, whose last 

minute touchdown won a previous 

game played between the 

same teams at the Madison 

High School field, was sent in 

and on the next play took a 

lateral from Falla and scored 

Millburn's initial touchdown. 

The try for point after touchdown 

was a pass, but it was 

batted down and the score remained

Scrap Money 

Aids Defense 

Bigger and better has been 

the history of Millburn's scrap 

collections and the last, not yet 

finished, tops the list. Eightyfive 

tons of metal, rubber and 

rags were gathered in last week 

to set the local record. 

This was the Township's 

fourth drive and beginning 

with number one the yield has 

been: 20 tons, 15 tons, 60 and 

the last 85 tons. This figure it 

is believed will approach the 

100 ton mark when men and 

tools able to handle the heavy 

remaining pieces can get around 

to them. 

Millburn too, has had its 

scrap price troubles. Ruling 

prices in the beginning ranged 

up to $12 a ton. This latter 

slumped to $10. for run of mine 

stuff and only by dint of shopping 

was an offer of $9.75 received 

for the last lot. Starting 

at $8. bidders raised their offers 

back and forth until the 

final figure was accepted. 

Chairman Ralph Trowbridge 

is sure the community has not 

yet reached the all out state. 

It has passed its quota of 150 

tons by thirty and the chair- 

man and members of the Defense 

Council Salvage Committee 

feel this can be raised to 

50 before Thanksgiving. 

Tin cans are coming to the 

receiving bin on Essex street at 

the rate of about a ton a week 

and these when sold bring 

around $13. the ton. About 6 

tons have been sold to date and 

the bin is again about full to 

the roof. 

Money received from these 

scrap and tin collections goes 

toward meeting costs of local 

defense so that residents who 

dig to the bottom of the trash 

pile are in reality saving tax 

dollars by their delving. 

A November collection, probably 

the last for some time, is 

in the offing.
