Although the term of State Detective
James L. Hawkins does not expira
until next March, there are already 4
number Of candidates for the office. nd
Guiding several from Kent and Sussex
counties. One strong argument used
by the men in lower Delaware is thai
IN previous years both detectives have
been residents Of New Castle County
and mostly Wilmington. Whenevet
any troubled occurred in either Of the
lower counties, it was always a long
time before the detectives could gel
rom Wilmington to the scene, and be-
cause ofthis many criminals have been
'ble to escape from the State limits. II
urged by the Kent and Sussex men
hat a detective should come from
lther Of these two counties, for then
ne of the State officers would be prae-
cally on the scene all the time or
thin close striking distance.

NUTLEY CLAMORS
FOR NIGHT COPS
Recent Raid of Thieves Stirs
Citizens to Indignation Over
Lack of Protection.
TOWN COUNCIL WILL BE
ASKED TO ACT AT ONCE
Under Present System Police
Are Called Only After Thefts
Have Occurred.

Citizens of burgiar-ridden Nutley
are now clamoring loudly for better
police protection because of the recent
raid of thieves there. Next to mos
quitoes it is the most wide-awake topic
in town.
Nutleyites are said TO be in nowise
inclined to ensur or criticise the work
of Chief Horace N. Booth; they are
said to believe that the chief has not
enough men actively on the job.
"At present Nutley has practically
no police protection from such raids as
have recently startled the town." said
one resident today. 1.-THE chief and his
men can be relied upon to get to the
scene of action in double-quick time as
soon as they are 'phoned that the
thieves are out. Since the withdrawal
of the private watchman from the
Hawthorne avenue section of West
Nutley there have, however, been NJ
patrolmen out at night.
"The people want some system estab-
lished whereby their homes will be
guarded at night and the barn-door
closed before the horse is stolen.
THE matter Is to come up before the
Town Council and ways and mean de-
vised whereby Nutley will not be such
easy picking for thieves"

~Resenting the notoriety given the use
of a section of the rear of the Orange
Common Council chamber as sleeping
quarters for six firemen, members of
the Council last night criticised their
critics and wound up a little talk-fest
by deciding to screen off the sleeping

stairs resulted in shifting mosquito
canopied beds to the southerly end of
the meeting room, where there are
three good sized windows. The Orange
District Court also has sessions in the
room.
Councilman John C. Fineran vacated
the presidents chair last night to speak
of the alleged disrepute into which Or
ange had fallen as a result of he criti-
cism. and he wanted the special com
mittee having the PROJECT of securing a
city hall under their care discharged
and the public buildings committee
authorized to get busy.
This started the ball rolling, and
Councilman Romine deprecated the
agitation owe the matter and said it
was common talk that a member of the
fire department boosted he'd shame the
Council and court out of the building.
He said the committee could get a pole
and put 1t across the bed section. Or
ange is not in a position at this time
to spend money and the committee was
practising economy in keeping up pres
ent conditions.
Majority Leader Birkholz said the
beds had been present when a public
meeting on the city hall project took
place and no attention was paid to them
at the time. That was, however, before
the beds were canopied with mosquito
nettings and not so imposing in APP
pearance. He didn't think the council
men enjoyed sitting in meeting with
dogs bowling outside, fire whistles
screeching and the men hanging on to
their trousers waiting to go to bed, but
thought, for the sake of saving the city
money, the officials could stand the con-
ditions awhile longer.
The Council then decided that the
pole be purchased and a screen ecure
Councilman Cheetham n others
pointed out the public buildings COM
mittee had failed to complete their
work by screening off the section for
the sleeping men, and Cheetham said 1t
would be a good idea for the committee
to get together and settle the little
stunt by fixing things up before Chair
man Nissan got home from his vaca-
ton.
