KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
WIN IN A LAW SUIT.
Court Holds That Extra-Hazardous Job
Forfeits Insurance in This
Fraternal Order.

WHITE PLAINS, July "A decision
of importance to members Of fraternal
benefit organizations was fled here
Saturday by Justice Tompkins IF the
Supreme Court, who is himself prom
inent in many of the fraternal organi-
cations.
Michael Gienty was a member of the
knights of Columbus Lodge at Port
Jervis, being a clerk when he Joined.
Later he took a position as railroad
switchman and was killed. The Knights
refused to pay the benefit certificate
for 81. 900 held by Gienty on the ground
hat he had forfeited his membership
by engaging in an occupation which
had been deemed IN extra-hazardous
one and one prohibited by the bylaws.
The justice holds that the knights
had a pight to declare such an occupa-
ton of the "extra-hazardous" kind,
even after Gienty had Joined. The suit
to recover was dismissed.

BLISS RESIGNS
.KEARNY SCHOOL SUPT.GOES
TO BR0CKTON, MASS.
Leaves So, 500 Position Across the River
to Take Up Larger Position in
New England Town.

After nine years connection with the
public schools of Kearny, Supervising
Principal Don c. Bliss sent his resignation
to the Kearny Board of Education yes
terday afternoon, to take effect at once,
having accepted the position of superin-
tendent of public schools of Brockton,
Mass. He will enter upon his new duties
at the beginning of the school year, in
September. The supervising principal and
family will leave the first of next week
for their new home. Formal action will
be taken by the board at its next meeting.
The new contract made ,sith NJ. Bliss at
State, and the board, If 1t was otherwise
disposed, has no other alternative but ac-
quiesce to his wishes.
Mr.. Bliss new duties will be of a
greater responsibility, there being 2o5
teachers and nearly 10000 pupils in the
schools OF Brockton, 1000 of whom are
in the high school. The Board of Educa-
tion of Brockton received many applica-
lions from many sections of the United
States, Mexico and the Philippines, and
after weeks of work cut the list down to
three, and at a fral conference between
the three candidates and the board last
saturday selected Mr.. Bliss.
Mr.. Bliss went to Kearny from North
Vile, Mich, and his first three years
work was principal of the high school,
and for the past Elk years has been SUI
pervising principal.
Under his direction the High School
course was extended to four years, and
the departments of music and drawing
were added to the schools Curriculum.
He fathered the plan of medical inspec-
ton among the pupils of the schools and
advanced the idea of manual training as
being an important department to the
school system. which failed the present
year OF adoption owing to the Councils
action in refusing to appropriate the
money necessary to carry 1t forward.
President S. Arthur Brown said today
that the matter of Mr.. Bliss successor
would not probably be taken up until fail.
Supervising Principal Bliss has done
excellent work for our schools. and he
will leave with the best wishes of the
board,' remarked President Brown.

BUTTED IN STOMACH
YOUTH IN HARRISON WORKS
HURT POOLING.
Max Greenburg Taken to Hospital.
Strike Was Feared at
Edison's.

Max Greenberg, II years old. of SO John
street, this city, employed In the General
Electric Company's works at Harrison.
was hurt so badly while s%kylarking. It is
said, last night while at work he had to be
removed to st. James's Hospital, this city.
in the Harrison police ambulance.
Greenberg, who works In the treating"
room, after supper hour last night COM
menced fooliag with some of his fellow
workmen and after having some fun, 1t is
alleged one Of the men butted him In the
stomach with his head.
DIR. A. A. Mullfgan, of Harrison. was
called and attended the man, but he was
later taken to the hospital.
A fuss was expected among the employ
ees last night. About two weeks ago fifty
'treabers" went out on strike for an In
crease in money and Saturday nights off.
The strikers. it is said, did not have any
leader and a large portion Of the men
went back to work again.
Chanceman John Clark, OF Harrison, Is
doing duty at the works and has been
every night since the strike started. He
anticipated trouble among the men who
were working last night. 1t was the pre-
vAilipg belief that some of the men In the
Treating" room were going to raise a
disturbance.
Policeman Reilly, Of Harrison, was at
the works with Chanceman Clark for a
short time in case of emergency. How
ever. no commotion was evident. Clark
is hired by the Edison officials, and as a
rule tours through the different sections
of the plant where men are working, TO
preserve order. He made an effort to get
the man who injured Greenburg, but with
out avail.

DECIDE TO AMEND IT
ALDERMEN TO TONE DOWN
STRINGENT NEW LAW.
Miikmen and Produce Dealers Com.
plained-eity sealer complimented.
Says He's Handicapped.


The new ordinance destined to regulate
the measurements of milk and fruit re-
iceptacles, which was passed by Common
Council, will be amended at Friday night
session. That was decided upon last night
81 a meeting Of the weights and measures
committee. As outlined in ~ EVENING
MAR yesterday, the Aldermen deter
msned that the present regulations Of the
ordinance were too stringent regarding
the produce wholesalers and the milk deal
ers.
The Aldermen determined last night that
ipstead of having the bottles shipped to
Newark for stamping and then sent to the
dairies the glassblowers should be allowed
70 blow the size Of the bottle In the glass
1T the factory. The city inspectors will
make random inspections of the bottles
a the distributing depots. and II any vio-
Iation should be discovered a penalty OF
II may be fixed for each offense.
THE responsibility for the right measure
IN fruit baskets. 1t was decided, should be
transferred from the wholesaler TO the re-
stands. the wholesaler would be compelled
ito change his goods to different baskets
So kral times, which would mean a loss to
him. By placing the responsibility on the
Retailer that is avoided.
The report of the city sea1er, Patrick
Eauneiu was submitted ana adopted Inc
report stated that work lone in June
amounted to 1921 81. of which s2S7.4l had
: been turned over to the Comptroller. The
total number of inspections made was Ill.
most of which were of heavy platform
scales.
1t was agreed that an annual inspection
OF small scales should be mad instead of
the semi-annual inspection recommended
previously. 1t was pointed out that there
are in the neighborhood of 10000 small
scales used daily in the city, and the work
OF inspecting these scales s~emi-annually
would be n herculean task.
City Sealer Cauheld appeared before the
committee and asked for further assist
ance, stating that the present force was
Inadequate to meet the demands made upon
his department. The committee decided.
at length, to lay the matter over until
their next monthly meeting, when 1t will
be taken up further.
Chairman J. A. Meyer reviewed the work
of the committee and the city sealer was
complimented by a vote upon the excel
lent showing made during the month OF
June. Chairman Meyer called the attention
of the committee to the fact that the city
sealer was we'll supplied with horses and
wagons to take care of his work, one horse
having been added during the past thirty
days. or the appropriation Of $1,000 made
by the council for the committee. but 5000
had been expended. and the horses and
wagons were In first class condition, he
said, !
