Bob Zachary Proclaimed "Man Of The Year"
Loyalty to Former U.S. Senator Walter E. Edge, Governor of New Jersey Two Terms and Ex-U.S. Ambassador to France Brings About New Glories And Laurels to Bob Zachary As "Friend Number One of Press of Garden State" and "Man Of The Year" After Being in Employ of Public Service Corporation for 25 Years Who is Now Vice-President in Charge of Public Relations and Publicity as Well as Advertising Departments as Golden Emblem is Presented To Him by Board Chairman Lyle McDonald and President Donald Luce at Big Ceremony At Main Office in Newark
M. Martin Turpanjian, editor of this newspaper, takes great pride in proclaiming Robert A. Zachary, vice-president of Public Service Corporation, of Newark, New Jersey, in Charge of public relations, adverf- ising and publicity, as the ''Man of The Year" and afso as the "Friend Number One of the Press of Garden State" for his efforts as ambassador of good-will for spreading friendship among masses and the classes. ,
Bob Zachary is the son of George W . and Mary Zachary. He was born on April 13, 1888 in Washington, D . C. and married on April 25, 1914 to the former Miss Mary Edwards. They have two sons, Robert, Jr. who resides in Essex Fells, New Jersey and Roy who lives in Cranford, New Jersey. He recently rounded up 25 years of services with the huge utility firm and was the recipient o f a golden emblem from the Board Chairman Lyle McDonald in presence o f President Donald C. Luce and many other executives of the company at a fitting ceremony. Bob Zachary resides at 460 Harding Drive, South Orange.
Editor Turpanjian coud not think * ---------------------------------of a more appropriate tribute to Bob Zachary than to ask former U. S. Senator Edge to say a few wordf, about the man who began his political career as secretary to him who was then U. S. Senator from New Jersey in October, 1921.
W e are more than proud to reprint verbatim the message of former U. S. Senator Edge which was received recently by the editor of this newspaper.
"Bob Zachary was of invaluable assistance to me while I was a member of the United States Senate. Fie always was diplomatic, courteous and of course, absolutely loyal.
"It was a great pleasure to me to recommend him to my old friend Ed Wakelee, when an official of Public Service Corporation, and his rapid rise in that organization has been a source of much gratification to me.”
Bob Zachary was executive assistant in the company’s law department from 1930 to April, 1937 when he was made assistant vice- president of the firm and in 1939 he was elected a director and since December 1945 he hate been designated as vice-president in charge of public relations, advertising and publicity departments.
Mr. Zachary went to work as an office boy in the Washington, D. C. office of the then Brooklyn Eagle on November 2, 1904. He worked up to Assistant Washington correspondent and was in the employ of that newspaper 17 years.
He was also assistant to the Washington correspondent of the Newark Evening News. In October, 1921 he ‘became secretary to formei U. S. Senator Edge. He managed the Edge’s campaign for re-election in 1924.
Fie is progressive in thought and action. He has been known to pour oil on the troubled waters and iron out differences by applying his Golden Rule methods and they are effetual. He is a conscientious worker and possesses extraordinary forcefulness and daring initiative.
He is one of the best informed men in New Jersey. With h i; intellectual elasticity of mind, charm and poise, Bob Zachary is on the way to greater heights of glory. He is a logical thinker and works, out every idea to a definite conclusion. He is very humble. Anyone and everyone can talk to him. He is a self-made power for good and is a man of noble personality and his character stands out cameo-like.
He has always displayed much tact and wisdom. He has a heart of gold and finds happiness in seeing others happy. He is also widely known as a "Prince of Goodfellow- bhip” for he is a man of dynamic personality and of ultra fidelity. He has indeed the greatness of heart and mind. He is also Honorary Member of New Jersey League of Weekly Newspapers, Inc.
There is another outstanding haracteristic that marks him for public service. His utter selflessness.
Two Waldwick School Instructors Resign
The Board of Education Monday acceptted with regret the resignation of Paul Griffith' as music instructor in the school. Griffith will entter Drew Seminary to prepare for the minitry o f the faith.
The resignation of Mrs. Frank Maas as a kindergarten teacher was also acceptted with regrets. Mrs. Maas indicated in her letter of resignation she would be willin to reconsider if the Board saw fit to establish a fifth kindergarten to relieve the pressure on the kinder- gartetn teachers who will be faced with a high enrollment. Mrs. Maas in her communication to the Board said she felt that kindergartten students needed a great deal o f persona] attention from the teacher and that jt was impossible to do justice to the children when the enrollment exceeds 30.
Board members stated that this coming school year wauld be . a most critical year in the system, but that future plans ■for school construction would indicate' that we will be then over the serious stage so far as double sessions and classroom space was concerned.
Joseph Liser was named audior at a salary of $700, Frank R. Doty, custodian of school funds with a $500 annual salary, Secreary E. R. Pfitzner will receive a $400 increment for a $5,400 salary. Trustee Mrs. Estelle Callahan absteined on voting on $400 increments for the Principal D. Frank Workman and Vice-Principal Michael Elia on the grounds that Principal Workman, due to his many years of continuou-1 service in the system, should not receive the same increment as the vice-principal who was named to the post last year. Workman will receive $6,400, Elia $4,900.
When other men put themselves and their personal interests first, he puts himself last. The good of the masses is the thing that is of paramount importance to him.
Washington, D. C. may well be proud of having produced so illustrious a citizen as Bob Zachary whose governmental career began when he became secretary ro the former U. S. Senator Walter E. Edge at the nation’s capital.
This newspaper presented a certificate of appreciation to Bob Zachary yesterday. M. Martin Turpanjian as president o f New Jersey League of Weekly Newspapers wishes for Bob Zachary the best of luck and happiness as Honorary Member of the League. New Jersey has 28 daily newspapers and close to 400 weeklies.
To Bob Zachary, statesan, tactician, patriot, newspaperman, publicist and director of public relations I lift my hat in a salute of pride. Long may he live and conquer !

George F« Smith To Head Safety Council Campaign
TRENTON— Governor Meyner announced today that George F. Smith, president of Johnson & Johnson, will direct the New Jersey State Safety Council’s campaign for $500,000 to finance the Council activities the next three years. u
Meyner, who will serve as honorary chairman, said Smith's acceptance was an outgrowth of a recent conference at which the Council’s accident prevention and safety programs for the next three years were discussed. At the conference, in addition to Meyner were Harold G. Mangelsdorf, council president and FrederickH. Groel, member of the executive committee, and Lee Bristol who directed the Council’s fund campaign three years ago.
The campaign for funds to finance the Council’s activities for the next three years will start in the fall. Financial support will be sought from industrial and commercial concerns in all 21 counties.
The State Safety Council, in operation since 1947, is an outgrowth and an expansion of the activities of the Newark Safety Council, organized 31 years ago. The state council currently directs operations of 14 safety councils throughout the state, the New Jersey State Fire College and the Industrial Fire Chiefs’ Association of New Jersey. With the exception of the National Safety Council, it is the largest in the nation.
The state council has a total ofI , 044 volunteer workers compared with 795 four years ago, and works closely with the State Department of Labor and Industry, Department of Education, State Health Department, Department of Law and Public Safety and 60 active statewide organizations.
The work of the Council has figured prominently in placing New Jersey foremost among the states that have been honored for reducing the rates of accidents and fatalities ot carrying on effective programs in accident prevention

THE PRICE TAG ''ON MOTOR MADNESS
The ‘ ‘Sioiv Dawn anc ‘ Live” campaign to save lives in New' Jersey has a dollars and cents meaning--fior* every man, woman and child <in *tne iState. - -
Furpose of 4he -national campaign, which is being conducted through the -summer in New Jersey by the Safety- Council and cooperating’ State officials, is to combine public action with best methods of traffic accident prevention in order to reduce the summertime casualty toll on streets and highways. Attention will be focused upon traffic violations and bad driving practices, most of which involve speed.
Excessive speed and careless driving involve costs even beyond the terrible toli of death, injury and damages usually associated with automobile accidents, points out the New Jersey Taxpayers Association. These .are the added costs for the services which governments must provide to cope with the accident menace.
Therefore, to the known cost of L954 traffic accidents in New Jer- I sey—-estimated by safety officials and the Association of Casualty and Surety Companies at $76,- 285,000, or $63.08 per family of four— must be added governmental expenses related to traffic.
The list includes traffc operations by state, county and local police, the motor vehicle and high-

THERE are literally bread-lines in the United States today.
To read the newspapers and the weekly financial and business publications each week, no one would suspect it. No one would suspect that there are approximately two million people depending upon distribution of surplus food for their meals. To read the stock-market reports and the financial status and net profits of the large business concerns, no one would suspect that there are some 5,000,000 Americans with an income of $1,000 or less, who are subsisting upon a sub-standard diet. There are 3,200,000 in the American labor force who are without jobs. There are some 3,000,000 more who are working one, two or three days a week.
in the mining industry alone, there are more than 200,000 miners
I idle. They have been idle for month. They have exhausted their unemployment compensation and are living on charity. This means that in the,mining industry alone some 600,000 to 700,- 000 persons are living or subsisting on the'doles of the tremendous stores of surplus foods built up over the years by the Commodity Credit Corporation.
Hear this. Congressman James E. Van Zandt (R-Pa.), speaking on the floor of the house:
.“ Think of it Ms. Chairman, according to > the Pennsylvania Department of Property and Supplies, in the great industrial State ofc Pennsylvania, out-..of. its lOt.and one-third .million- residents, nearly. 10%, or 1,020,963 are living on surplus ..commodities-” . , ,
And what are those surplus corn-
school crossing guards, motor vehicle inspection, first aid. and ambulance squads, hospital costs not
| paid otherwise and accident investigation, to mention d.' few.
modifies? They are butter, cheese, dried beans, dry milk and a limited amount of cooking oils. But no bread. No com meal. These people do not have the money to buy bread or com meal. They have absolutely no purchasing power.
Multiply these figures by 61,000 unemployed miners in West Virginia; 67,000 in Virginia; 30,000 in southern Illinois. Other thousands in Kentucky, Indiana and other coal mining states—28 states in all.
Congress recently started something about removing the breadlines, The House passed a bill (H.R. 2851) to mandate the Department of Agriculture to furnish from surplus stores of the Cons- modity Credit Corporation, sufficient supplies of processed wheat and com to provide all these people with flour and meal with which to make bread. Somehow, the Congress did not trust the Department of Agriculture to deliver this surplus food, for the bill mandates the Department of Agriculture to deliver to the Department of Health, Education and Welfare sufficient quantities of flour and com meal, and directs the HE and W department to distribute it to proper local or state agencies. The bill passed the house by a vote of 343 to 1. The lone dissenter was Representative Fred Marshall (D--Minn.). Although three Congressmen — Clevenger and Vorys of Qhio, and Utt, of California, voted “ present,” sidestepping the issue. , ..... j
Most of this unemployriient is in the mining. in4us^y, .but there is sense, in .stgel,, sqrpe ill. farm .Ua- plements and other’ industry.

State Bureau Jlsks Local GroupsTo i l l E s t a i s i Correct Names
TRENTON — Local historians and others interested in New Jersey's heritage are being asked to help the State establish correct names and spellings for the lakes, streams and brooks in each county. The project is one o f the func-. tions carried on by the Bureau of Geology and Topography. Robert G. Blanchard, topographic engineer in the Bureau, and his assistants, study suggested name changes for revised State Atlas sheets. Then they query county and municipal officials and collect any available information explaining variations.
In particular, authorities want to determine the right one of three names, all applied to Losen Slote in Bergen County. An expert on Indian words could help too by indicating the authentic spelling for names like Annarick- on, Chmigarora and Mingama- lione.
Joseph E. MdLean, Commissioner of the Department of Conservation and Economic Development, explains the State’s need for determining the correct geographic names and making them official. “ A single name is essential for legal and surveying purposes,” he points out. “ It is also important to a number of 'State agencies

"Best advertising I ever had,” Jeff told me one afternoon as he wiped his perspiring brow. "Had thirty-seven cars in here so far today—and this a Monday.”
“ Ned sure can knock out some beauties,” I said, scanning the line of eye-catching panels. We both stopped smiling a few minutes later, however, when Ned drove up in his old car.
“ Got a few more pictures here,” he informed Jeff, pointing to the back seat. "That’s the last of ’ em.”
It was easy to see that the wind had been taken out of Jeff’s sails. ‘ ‘But what about our business?” he asked weakly. “ When the highway is widened folks from all over the country will be stopping here to buy your paintings. It’s—well, it’s like throwing money away to quit now.” He turned to me: "Isn’t that ao, John?”
I said it was so. I tried to convince Ned that he’d got hold of a good thing, but he just shook his head. When his car wheezed away it left me and Jeff standing there with exceedingly long faces.
You see—I was Jeff’s helper.We stayed at the station later
than usual that evening trying to figure out some way to change Ned’s mind. Both of us liked Nellie Thompson, and we certainly didn’t begrudge her the ocean voyage, yet her getting it would kill Ned’ s incentive for painting. Worse yet, It would wipe out my job.
"Let’s mot kid ourselves, Jeff,” I said. "Ned is through painting unless he finds himself in a tight spot He’s keeping his promise to Nellie, and for him that’s enough."
"That’s It!’ ’ cried Jeff, brightening. "We’ve got to convince Ned that bis money will he gone whan
such as the Highway Department, our Division o f Water Policy and Supply and many others.”
At present, the work is nearly completed in Bergen and Passaic Counties, partially done in Essex, Union and Morris, and starting in most other counties.
When one name appears to be the right one, it is submitted, with data concerning it, to the New Jersey Geographic Board. After that group has approved it, it is sent to the national Board on Geographic Names. Acceptance by that body makes the name official, and all future publications and maps issued by federal and state agencies carry it i® that form.
Old place names, and names with historical significance, are the ones preferred, Blanchard says. “ One of the purposes of the New Jersey Geographic Board is to see that old names in the State are preserved and that any new names adopted are in keeping with the character, dignity and traditions of New Jersey.”
The members of the hoard, serving without pay, are Blanchard, A. (Lee Grover, secretary of the State Highway Department and George J. Miller, member of the East Jersey Board of Propri-

"But It doesn’t «eem fair,” I protested- ’ ’She’s waited all her life for this-voyage.”
"It’s for their own good,” argued Jeff. " —and for yours.”
This made sense, but I didn’ t like it. I only agreed to accompany hinm to the Thompson place to make sure he didn’t try to put anything over on the old couple.
First, however, I haa to phone Mrs. Dawkins, my landlady, to let her know I’d be late for supper. Jeff thumped the car horn impatiently while I was on the phone.
The Thompsons were on the front porch when we drove up. Ned disappeared inside the house 'to round up some refreshments. Nellie carried the ball from the start, getting Jeff into a corner and talking about agents and dungs like that.
When we left, Jeff was mumbling to himself and carrying on something fierce.
“ No go, eh?”“ Well, Ned’ s going to keep on
painting,” he grunted."Good! I feel sorry for Nellie,
though. All her life she has looked forward to making an ocean voyage.”
"Oh, she’s going to make her voyage all right,” he growled, "and I’m going to pay for itl”
"You?”"Me. She’s smart, that Nellie
Thompson—too smart. Somehow or other she got wind of the fact that Ned’s pictures are important to my business. She’ s going to mail batches of paintings to me from every port they touch; but she’s allowing me a mere ten-per-cent of the profit instead at the twenty- five percent Ned always gave me. CUims such trips are expensive.”
I whistled. Then I found myself wandering what Jeff would say U be ever found out that my landlady didn’t even own a telephone
etors.Besides the Indian names the
Board tries to retain, Blanchard says names such as Dwars Kill and Goffle BrSok, in northern New Jersey, are favored because they indicate the influence of early settler from Germany and Holland. ^
Sometimes a name will stump even the experts. Losen Slote, a tidal stream in Bergen County, is one of these. The name has been handed down from past generations, but the stream also is called Eckels Creek, Upper Mudabock and Losing Creek. Research indicates that "Losen” is from the German and means loose, movable or floating, while “ slote” is an obsolete form of “ slot” which is o f Scottish derivation and means hollow, depression or channel. Whatever its decision, the Board is apt to be accused o f “ straddling the stream” on this one.
Local residents, knowing of lakes, streams, brooks and ponds in their area which bear several names or spellings, are invited to suggest their preference and supply data defending it. They should address their letters to Robert G. Blanchard, Department of Conservation and Economic Development, Trenton, N. J.
Changes In Your Social Security
“ If you are totally disabled and have worked in employment or self-employment covered by Social Security, you should file a “ disability freeze” application to protect your benefit rights,” Joseph B% O’Connor, Regional Director of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, said today.
“ It is especially important,” he added, “ for disabled persons who are already receiving Social Security benefits, and whose disability began before age 65, to apply immediately for th » ‘disability freeze’.” Under the disability provisions of the recent amendments to the Social Security Act, these individuals would have their benefits refigured to determine whether their benefit amounts could be increased.
O’Connor further stated that totally disabled persons who will be 65 before July 1955, would be wise to file their “ freeze” applications as soon as possible. “ Actually,” he said, “ all disabled persons, no matter what their age, have no ‘disability freeze’ protection until they file their applications— so the sooner they file the better.”
O’Connor emphasized that the “ disability freeze” provided no cash disability payments. He compared it to a waiver of premium offered to individuals who purchase ordinary life insurance. A waiver of premium is used to maintain the protection of the insurance policy during the policy holder’s disablity. Similarly the “ disabilty freeze,” he said “ protects an individual’s social security benefits during his period of disability.”
Not all disabled individuals qualify for the “ freeze,” O’Connor explained. They must be totally disabled by an impairment which is expected to oontinue indefinitely, which is medically determinable, and which has lasted for at least six months. They must also have worked under Social Se

curity for five years during the ten years before the disability began. One and one-half years of the five years must have been during the three years right before the disability began.
“ If you qualify for a ‘disability freeze,’ Mr. O’Connor said, “ it is important to you and your family that you visit or phone your local district office without further delay.”
The Social Security offiee in Paterson is located at 245 Market Street.
