The governor immediately arranged for a 15 minute radio speech, in which he referred Edison as a "good, tired man who has been sold a very bad bill goods." Edison spoke over New York radio station WOR, Driscoll on the same station an hour and a half later, and Hawkes on Philadelphia radio station KYW.

Edison said his deletion of the meeting reference "in no way altthe fact that the spirit of the primary laws has been violated as set forth in the balance of the talk." radio Driscoll, in his hastily arranged talk, said was "being misused by his The governor referred to Edison as a "New Deal bureaucrat" and urged New Jersey voters not to be "misled by irresponsible attacks." "No pledges were broken at any time under any circumstances," Driscoll said. He said Edison dropped the reference to the meeting when he "found he couldn't verify one or two of his statements." Driscoll said the personal attacks upon him were an attempt to divert attention from the main issue of Eisenhower versus Taft. possible that Taft might win Tuesday's GOP presidential poll, Driscoll said, adding us who believe in Eisenhower must work hard between now and Tuesday, The issue is close." Hawkes, of Montclair, in speech aimed at South Jersey resldents, referred to Driscoll's announced support of Eisenhower as action that put "disgrace and blemish" on the state. "Senator Taft was compelled to withdraw his forces from the state after Governor Driscoll and Lloyd Marsh at a meeting in Trenton clearly gave the impression to the people of the state of New Jersey and that the Republican leaders machine tools were going to work day and night for Eisenhower." Stassen Appeals Personally The Republican primary ballot lists the names of Taft, Eisenhower Harold E. Stassen.

Stassen is the only GOP presidential aspirant making a personal appeal for New Jersey primary votes. Last night, Stassen made appearances in Princeton, Elizabeth, Morristown, Somerville, Bernardsville and Highland Park. Sen. Henry C. Lodge of Massachusetts, appearing on a New York television program last night, said Taft backers are conducting an intensive "sleeper" campaign in Jersey, Eisenhower's campaign manager, Lodge said the Ohio senaton's supporters are "still in there tooth and Lodge recently returned from a conference with the general in Paris.

Informed of the verbal blasts against Driscoll, Sen. Robert Hendrickson said in Washington the move was made "by certain strictly, selfish interests" New to injure Driscoll politically. Eisenhower is the overwhelming favorite to pick up all 10 delegates today's convention of Kansas Republicans in Topeka. Nine his supporters will be chosen without a fight. Eisenhower's forces will have to battle a taft man the other spot.

Kansas district conventions ready have chosen 12 delegates, for Eisenhower, two for Taft. Taft, however, seemed to hold the upper hand in a series of district Republican conventions opening in Kentucky today to select 20 delegates. Eisenhower supporters planned to fight to send uninstructed delegates to Chicago. Four district conventions being held three tomorrow and one Saturday, to two delegates convention opening Saturday will choose regulating the parking of trailers in the boro was introduced at the council Monday night. The meeting, regularly scheduled for last night, was advanced to Monday because of the Jewish holidays.

The ordinance also provides for licensing of trailers. A public hearing will held at the next meeting. Look Look Look! HORNER'S DRIVE IN Opens Thursday, April 10th Featuring Same Delicious Sandwiches and Homemade Ice Cream ASBURY AVENUE ASBURY Fireman Wins Fight for Job TRENTON The State Civil Service Commission today an- nounced an order reinstating Asbury Park Fireman S. Howland, effective April 1, with back pay to May 15, 1951. Dispatched to City Manager J.

Oliver Armstrong after a hearing on Mr. Howland's appeal from his dismissal April 16, 1948, the order restores the fireman to rank of first class fireman. He is entitled to back pay only thru May 15, 1951, the order explains, because that is the date the Civil Service Commission ordered a hearing in the case. Injured while shoveling snow at fire headquarters Dec. 29, 1947, Mr.

Howland offered without avail to return to limited duty in January, 1948, attorney, Ward Kremer, argued in the appeal. City Attorney Abraham Frankel, opMr. Howland's bid for reinstatement, said city records show the fireman veins, dropped in April, 1948, for absent without leave. The commission's decision recites that the fireman was considered by the city as a temporary employe from Oct. 16, 1942, until Jan.

15, 1948, when he was last paid. In 1946, the ruling recalls, the commission informed City Manager Armstrong that the fireman should be regarded as a fulltime, permanent employe since the 1942 date. The ruling says that tho he was dropped from the city payroll Jan. 15, 1948, Mr. Howland was never advised that he was on a leave of absence without pay, and he wasn't notified that he had been separated from the department.

Mr. Howland had asked the commission to award him accrued pension rights since 1948, but the ruling said the commission has no jurisdiction on that issue. Steel (Continued from Page 1) thirds of that away in taxes." He added: "The truth is that in terms of net profit, by which I mean the money the company has left after all costs are paid, the steel companies made per ton -less than one-third of that $19.50 that the President talked about." Hits Wage Board Elaborating on his "corrupt political deal" statement, Randall said one of the principals was the Wage mended Stabilization Board cents which hour a an increase for the CIO United Steelworkers. Murray, CIO-USW president, called a strike after the industry refused to accept the recommendation without a $12 a ton increase in steel prices. The public members of the industry-labor-public WSB panel, Randall asserted, were "public in name only--for Hanty Truman knew in advance that they would not let Phil Murray down." And, he said, the recommendations were not meant to be binding the first place, yet Truman "has seized steel plants to compel their adoption." Randall spoke on the Korean war and said: "I say to you fathers and mothers of our brave men in Korea that it any man now threatens their safety for lack of steel, that man's name is Phi! Murray.

called the steel strike; the steel companHe, les did not." Union aides said the attack on Murray was "so unwarranted as not to deserve a reply." Randall's blast was keyed to the emotional pitch which industry and union officials have in the long, tense steel dispute. But the industry said it was ready to resume full steel production. Both sides were summoned today to a meeting with John R. Steelman in another attempt to reach agreement on a new work contract. Secretary of Commerce Sawyer, nominal boss of the eight billion dollar industry, was visited last night by presidents of nine big steel companies.

"Without exception I was assured by those present that, except for purely mechanical or temporary impediments, operations would be resumed immediately," Sawyer said. He scheduled meeting, with Murray today. The union already has told its 650,000 basic steel workers to get back on the job. The President's seizure order set off an angry dispute on Capitol Hill that brought various proposals to meet the situation. They ranged from a demand that Congress declare the seizure action illegal to a bill that would give the President specific power to seize Industrial plants.

Truman threw the squabble upon the lawmakers' doorstep with a message inviting them to write their own rules for handling such a situation if they didn't like what he did. Eisenhower (Continued from Page 1) hind the Curtain," and others, Mr. Gunther has known General Eisenhower since the early years of World War 2. His personal account of the General gets beneath the legend to the flesh-and-blood person. The realistic report has been hailed by newspapers and reviewers thruout the country.

This is the story of how General Eisenhower advanced from lieutenant colonel in March, 1941, to the rank of four-star general 23 months later to command the largest amphibious invasion ever attempted; why he refused to enter politics in 1948; his reasons for becoming president of Columbia University; and his qualifications for the Presidency of the United States. Mr. Gunther's concise, easy-toread, story answers these important questions: Has he been soft toward the Russians? Is he indispensable in Europe? Who might succeed him in SHAPE? What are some of his ideas about domestic policy? How does he get along with Mac Arthur? Is he a liberal or conservative?

Grunewald Cited For Contempt WASHINGTON- House yesterday, cited Grunewald Henry of W. Spring (The Lake, N.J., for contempt of Congress for "willful and deliberate refusal" to talk about his mysterlous connection with big-money tax cases figuring in tax scandal investigations.

Grunewald was not present to hear the House refer his "Contumacious conduct" to the United States attorney for prosecution. He was at home under a doctor's care--too sick, his lawyer said, to appear before House investigators who voted to cite him for contempt last Jan. 30 after five attempts, on four separate occasions, to his silence.

A buffet supper was served to the visitors. Walling Blasts 'New Alliance' South Belmar Councilman Leroy F. Walling, a candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor, today issued a public statement hitting the alliance of Frank Herbert, former mayor seeking the nomination and Rene Bergeron, present mayor who has indicated he will step down in favor of exrival, Mr. Herbert. In a move to draw support to himself in the Tuesday primary elections, Mr.

Walling enclosed with the letter two mimeographed sheets bearing exerpts from articles which appeared in the Asbury Park Press and a Belmar paper pointing up the feud between Mr. Bergeron and Mr. Herbert, culminating Dec. 6, 1949 with the resignation of Mr. Herbert as mayor.

The letter follows: "As a candidate for mayor in the boro of South Belmar, I am asking for the support of the voters in the April 15 primary election. If elected, I will carry out the same businesslike principals that I have tried to maintain as a councilman. I promise to to give the same careful consideration each issue just as I have in the past and vote for what I feel will benefit the majority of the people. I am opposed to the ticket of Frank Herbert and Rene Bergeron for many reasons. After the 1949 primary election, when control former Mayor Herbert lost of council, he failed to attend council meetings for months.

After continuous badgering from Mr. Bergeron, Mayor Herbert resigned in December of that year. Mr. Bergeron was elected to the office of mayor in 1950, and now after serving just one year of that term, has given up and has induced Mr. Herbert to join his party and run for mayor again.

I cannot conceive any reason why these two should be running together after being bitter enemies such a short time ago. I have been opposed to the way the Bergeron party has been running the boro; creating unnecessary positions; the way specifications and the awarding of contracts has been handled; some of his appointments, his general lack of business principals. I have had considerable business experience and feel that this will be a great asset in helping to manage the boro affairs. I am manager of the Lakewood and Point Pleasant branches of A. G.

Rogers, Inc. Moving and Storage. I have been active in the affairs for many years and am an exempt fireman and ex-chief of the Fire Department, a member of the First Aid Squad, a member of the Citizens Progressive League, three year now serving my second term as councilman. Shore History50 Years Ago As reported in The Press of 1902 Jack, a bulldog belonging to John P. Applegate, of Nut Swamp, near Red Bank, had a fight with a ninefoot blacksnake, which ended in the death of the reptile after 10 minutes' a struggle.

The dog was in a wagon with his master, who was inspecting some trees in a peach orchard. While standing near a tree he was surprised to see the snake jump from the top of it into the wagon. No sooner had the snake struck the dashboard when the dog had it by the tail and bit off about six inches. This caused it to retreat to the tree where it hung, lashing the remainder of its tail, until Mr. Applegate dislodged it with his whip.

No sooner had it struck the ground when Jack grabbed it again. But he lost it and the snake succeeded in coiling itself around the dog's body. Jack then secured another hold near the snake's head, and for 10 minutes the battle was SO fast and furious that it was hard to tell which was the snake and which the dog. Finally Jack bit off the snake's head and the battle was over. Jack had two small scars on its head where the snake bit him, but otherwise seemed unharmed.

But Mr. Applegate said he seemed dopey all day.
