Prohibition Party in New Jersey Campaign Plan
In Trenton on April 24 the National Prohibition Party nominated Rev James Gilbert Mason of Metuchen for Governor and outlined a thorough campaign. The platform calls for constitutional prohibitions on production and sale of alcohol, equal suffrage, child labor abolition, labor rights, initiative and recall, Sabbath protection, and school conservation. Dr Mason, 36-year pastor of First Presbyterian Church Metuchen, is the standard bearer. Donald McMillen of Nutley reelected state chairman as headquarters open. A state-wide campaign with a permanent organizer is planned. Mason’s name will appear on the November ballot via petition due to lack of sufficient primary votes. Also reported: Young Giants beat Young Oakwoods 16-1 with Colton and Cogan pitching for the Giants.
