CITIES GIVEN POWER

One Member Declares.

The annual meeting of the New Jer-
sey State Probation and Parole Society
was held in the Court House today,
with Charles Edmunds, of Mercer
County. presiding, n Mayor Irwin. Of
Union County. as secretary.
The first matter that cams up was
the presentation by Mrs. Caroline %.
Alexander, of Hudson County, of a new
form for reports. John j.. Gascoyle,
local probation officer. assisted her in
drafting the form. 1t was decided to
adopt their suggestions. Among those
who offered changes was Richard Stew
ems. the wealthy probation officer OF
Castle Point, Hoboken.
Mr.. Stevens, chairman of the legisla-
tive committee, had the secretary read
several bills in which the organization
is interested. One of them referred to
the appointment of probation officeps
by the municipalities, and several of
the members pronounced the measure
a bad one, 1t was stated in defense
that such officers were still in the con-
troll of the county judges. Mr.. Stevens
said that 1t would be a mistake to give
police judges such power. as the men
selected would not be of as high a
standard as those appointed by the
county judges.
Mrs. Williamson denounced the bill,
saying that incompetent politicians
would be appointed. Mr.. Gascoyne
pointed out hat the bill had its good
as well as bad points, as the county
courts were now oyercrowded Matters
might be hurried up under the bill.
At the close of the discussions, which
was followed by a lunch at De Jianne's,
