Bloomfield Board of Health Fa-

Gil May Object.
CLERK JOHNSON HANDS
In HIS RESIGNATION
1t Is Accepted with Regret--His
Successor viii Be Health Of
ficer j. G. Sale.

The Bloc nlseld Cemetery Company
was granted PERMISSION last mis- 1t by
the Board of Health of la town to
extend its lines so as to lake in prop
erty front.i.e on State sire and con-
sisting Of about two acres of lane now
owned by Mrs. John Jaeger and Rob-
ert d. Rawson.
The company has a ninety-day OPP
ton OH the property, and must now OBJ
tain permission from the Town Coun-
ell. Application will be made to the
latter at its meeting on Tuesday night.
1t was expected thai there would be
considerable opposition to the scheme
failed to materialize.
Sindle lives alongside the proposed
cemetery addition. He was present at
the meeting, but left before action was
taken. Commissioner Thompson said
he had understood that there would be
opposition to the scheme. Commits
sioner Gilbert declared hat If there
was opposition it was strange that
some of the directors had not ap-
peared to protest.
The board agreed that inasmuch as
it could only look upon the request
from a sanitary point there was no
reason why a permit should not be
granted. The action was unanimous.
1t is said, however, that there will be
opposition to the scheme when the
comics up before the Council.
William l.. Johnson, who has been
secretary of the board and registrar Of
vital statistics ever since the body
was organized, resigned his position.
His resignation will take effect on Feb
ruary Is, and he will probably be sue
ceeded by Health Officer Joseph c.
Sale, who will hold both positions.
Commissioner Thompson as we'll as
other members expressed their regret
at Mr.. Johnson's action, and wished
him success in any new venture ne
might undertake.

SCARR|TT SCORES.
FAILURE TO EQUIP
AN AERIAL FLEET
In East Orange Address Says
Congress Made Serious
Mistake.
STATESMEN
BELONG AT W00DPlLE"
Picturlng 'Frisco's Destruction
by Flying Warships, Declares
Nation Is Menaced.

Winthrop E. Scarrit, formerly presi-
dent of the Automobile Club of Amer
lea, and a member of the Aero Club, of
New York, addressed the Mems Gu of
h North Baptist Church, East Or
ange, last night, severely criticized
members of the subcommittee on forti-
f~lcations of the House of Representa-
tives for what he termed their failure
to realize the imperative need of keep
ing our War Department thoroughly
abreast with the other great powers of
the world in navigating the air. His
criticism referred to the action of the
committee in eliminating from the ap-
preparation bill the $500, 900 necessary
to build airships. Mr.. Scarritt said:
Let your imagination draw a pic
ture of the next war. Hostilities are
declared. A wireless message is re-
ceived In Washington demanding that
500, 000, 900 indemnity be paid at once
or San Francisco will be destroyed.
T~wenty-four hours notice is given. The
indemnity is not paid. A second wire
less comes from out the air, no one
knows from what direction. The
enemy's ultimatum is this: Twenty
four hours notice is given to the in
habitants of San Francisco to move
out of the city. At the expiration of
that time our aerial fleet will destroy
the city with dynamite Thanks %
the subcommittee, we have no power
to cope with such an enemy. Most IF
the inhabitants leave San Francisco.
The following midnight a hundred
ships of the air rain dynamite bombs
upon the helpless city and it is RACED
to the ground.
"These six-by-nine statesmen who
misrepresent the government have no
conception of their responsibility to the
nation; they ought to be chopping
wood instead of acting in such impor-
tant capacities as handling such big
matters. If we were up-to-date we
appropriate money for airships
so as to keep abreast of the leading
nations of Europe, such as England,
France and Germany. The war of the
future will be fought in the air."
Mr.. Scarritt spoke of his experiences
while in the balloon going over london
and told of the odd sensations during
the first half hour he was in the air,
u to a sense of utter helplessness.
If on the earth in an automobile, he
said, and the motor went wrong there
was always a chance to escape wherein
while In the air he was face to face
with his last chance. Mr.. Scarritt said
he overcame his fear by reading ac-
counts of the trips of other b%alloonists
who made their ~ascenslons with safety.
1.-THE lost 200 feet of the descent was
made too violently, and we hit the earth
with a sickening thud, which tore my
leg and broke it."
Mr.. Scarritt is undaunted with his
mishap and will shortly make another
ascent.
