IRVINGTON
WOULD TRANSFORM
SPEEDWAY INTO PARK.
Iryington Improvement Associa-
ton Discusses the Proposition.

Agitation to abolish the Speedway
and transform it into a parkway
marked the monthly meeting of the
Yves Emo Improvement Association at
Jubert's Hall. Springfield avenue, Irv-
ington, last night. A letter from DR..
William Sattler, of the Vailsburg I'M
provement Association, was read ask
ing citizens of %Iryington to. cooperate
with the association in petitioning the
Board of Freehoiders to take action in
the matter. A committee of three from
the West Enders, association, consist
ing of Albert j.. Lacombe, Harry c..
Herbert and A. Edward Helm, was APP
pointed to act with the V~ailsburgers.
Former As~semblyman George F.
Scribe spoke at length on the subject,
saying that h Second Ward Improve
ment Association, of which he is presi-
dent, had zone on record as opposed
to the Speedway, while the Mayor of
the town and the Councilman of the
Third ward, in which the Speedway is
located, had done nothing to oppose it.
Mr.. Scribe maintained that, since the
opening of Weequahic Park for racing
purposes, the Speedway had degenerated
into a tryout ground for horses, and
that its maintenance as such was an
injustice to the taxpayers.

Becker the $50 check given the volun-
teers by the Very Rev. DR.. James 3.
Mooney for work done at the recent ire
at Seton Hall College some Of the men
are very much up in arrns.1i sr7
Chief Becker has been III for several
months and Searles asked several Of
the members, if they would donate their
share of the check TO him. This he
claims a majorityso Of them. agreed to do.
Therefore, he says. he sent the whole
donation to Becker. Becker. it is said.
has applied to the Firemen's Relief As
ISOLATION for aid.
sa Some of the fremen.a who were not
consulted. objected to this action. and
last night. at a meeting called by Fire.
man George B. Yeager. made a formal
demand or Searles for the money. The
latter stated that anyone who wanted
his share could go to Becker and get it.
A committee composed of Joseph
Tracey, William Ash and Joseph Tur-
ner, representing the volunteers who
attended the meeting. went TO Seton
Hall College and reported back that DIR.
Mooney had informed them that the
money had been given TO Searles be-
cause he was the head Of the men who
worked at the college fire. 1t was given
with the understanding that the men
who reported to fight the fire should
receive an equal share in it.
When the volunteers did not receive
their share last night. another -cemmit-
tee was appointed, composed of Fore-
man Yeager. Thomas Fitzsimmons and
Charles Allen. for the purpose of meet
ing DR.. Mooney tonight to ask for a
written demand to be served upon
Searles.
Searles today declared that he had
received the consent of several of the
volunteers te give their share to
Becker. but that they had since
changed their minds. He says tina
before giving the money to Becker he
asked DIR. Mooney what he thought Of
so doing, IN the event of receiving the
consent of a majority of those who at
tended the fire, and declared that the
donor said it was a very good waysto
dispose of the money.
Whether or not the paid men at fire
headquarters were entitled to a; share
of the none or just the volunteers il

Following a lengthy controversy be-
tween the County Board Of Enuaaza-
ton of Taxes and the West Orange
officials over assessments upon the
property of Frank Koewing. in that
town, the West Orange Town Council
last night agreed to waive the four
years interest charges, totalling ssa2.79,

TO accept the principal, s4,6s5.60. Mayer
Walter A. Flint today reported the
action of the Council to Tax Collector
Frank A. O'Connor, WHO has given an
opinion that the action Of the Council
may be questioned as to its Legality.
Mfr. koewing was evidently satisfied
with the cutting of of interest charges
and will probably pay the sum fixed.
The Council also accepted a report

main in that t~horoughfare and a spetit
ton from the hStuyvesant Land Cont
pany for a sewer in leslie place Were
the principal 'matterrsr attended Il. last
night at the adjourned meeting of the
Irvington Council. A number of resi-
dents of Tichenor terrace complained
that their only source of water at pres
ent was the wells, which are few and
far between. Chairman Boerger, of the
sewer committee, stated that, in con-
versation with the representative of
the Clinton Water Company, he had
been informed that the reason for the
delay in laying the main was that the
company could not get any four-inch
pipe. Mayor Glorieux suggested that
the company could no doubt procure
the necessary pipe if it were willing to
pay for it. A resolution was then
unanimously passed authorizing the
water company to place a hydrant at
East Speedway and Tichenor terrace.
Councilman Boerger was instructed
to have an ordinance drawn up for in
PRODUCTION at the next meeting to pro-
vide for the sewering of Leslie place
and other streets where sewers are
needed. The finance committee was
authorized to issue an Improvement
certificate for $4,000.
