REFLECT UPON
THEIR INTEGRITY
East Newark Councilmen Will
Hold Special Meeting to AM
swer Citizens Club.
HIGHER EXPENSES ARE
SUBJECT OF INQUIRY
Letter Asks About Contingent
Fund, Cost of Garbage Removal
and Other Matters.

communication from the Citizens
club of East Newark read at the meet
ing of the Borough Council last
Right caused considerable discussion
by members of the council in reply.
The letter, which was signed by
John Douglass as secretary. asked
seYnral questions which in the opin-
ioNt OF the members of the council
reflected upon their integrity and it was
announced that a special meeting would
be held on Monday, December 81, at
which ali the questions asked by the
club would be answered fully.
These are the questions asked by the
club:
WIZ. does it cost $500 more to re-
move the garbage this year than it did
last year. - rw
Why IL the contingent fund larger
by $500 this year than iast year?
WHY we're the taxpayers compelled
to pay 81, 200 last year and again this
year to, the Passaic Valley Sewage
Commission when the borough paid
only $1,000 In all?
Why Is the cost of running the Dor
ough for the past two years greater
by so,ss7.5) than in previous years?
sNeGirnnon's Defense.
The letter wa referred to the finance
commottee. '"Some of the matters in
question: said Alderman Philip Nc
Ulennon, of tire committee, were acted
upon before / becSine a member OF the
Council. Therefore l will look them
up, secure data and be able TO give a
clear answer at the next meeting"
In reference 10 the charge that, While
only 81, 900 had been paid to the Passaic
Valley sewage Commission the tax
PAYERS had been assessed $1,000 McGlen-
non Explained that at the time the
$1,000 MAS paid. the Council had TO is
sue q. certificate of Indebtedness for
that amount. This became due and IT
was placed In the budget this year;
hence the seeming 1000. In regard to
the charge that 1t cost s2,967.50 more tc
rl,ng the borough he declared h a the
present board was more economical
than previous ones and that the books
would prove 1t.
"shOwed Its ignorance"
The reference to the $1,000 more in
the contingent fund, he SAID, showed
the ignorance of the members of the
club. The running expenses Of the
borough of East Newark. he declared,
exceeded SIS 900, and all that the pres
ent Council had this year to meet eX-
penses was $4,000. He asserted that
the Council Of 1905 had fixed the bud
get at $4,000 and in July of that year
had cut 1t down to $4,000. This, he
said, was for political purposes, and il
vas this $4,000 and some balances OF
other years that made the amount high
this year.
The treasury was depleted this year
1t was explained, by September, and
the Council had to borrow So 900, which
is what made the contingent fund seen
50 high this year.
The Council passed a resolution t(
pay each. member of the fire depart
ment his annual salary of S12.

Foreigners Angry.

Sofia Oct. ia disagreeable i'm
preston has been created in diplo-
matte circles here by a circular note
Issued today from the Bulgarian min
istry of justice, which orders that in
future all foreigners shall be treated
on the same basis as the natives. In
other words they are no longer to
enjoy the Intermediary of their con-
sulates.
The circular sets forth that the
declaration of independence annulled
the so-called capitulations, which ex-
empted a foreigner from the jurisdic-
ton of the local courts. A diplomat
ic representative of one of the great
powers today described this circular
as high handed" an action which
the powers will vigorously oppose.
The tendency of Bulgaria to extricate
herself from the treaty obligations in
ways that are more popular, he add
ed, will lead the powers to insist
upon the retention of the capitula-
ton for a definite period as one of
the contentious for the recognition
of Bulgarian independence.
