to the local authorities. If the
police, Monday night, had ordered
everybody from the hall who could
not find seats, they would have been
condemned on oil sides for their I'M
just and arbitrary ruling. On the
other hand, suppose a panic had
occurred, would not these same people
hold the police accountable for tho
loss of life and condemn them for
allowing people to stand and block
the passageway? Would not the
managers of the hall be condemned
for having NOV able chairs? These
questions are not raised to cause any
n trouble or personal injury, but it
is deemed necessary to the safety of
the people of Perth Amboy that some
thing be done to avoid any such catas-
trophe as occurred in Chicago. 1t
may cost a few dollars to make
changes, but what is money compared
with a single life?
