NAVAL SURGEON
TALKS Of HEALTH
ON WORLD CRUISE
DR.. Henry D. Wilson in Newark
Home Relates Some Inter-
esting Experiences.

DR.. Henry d. Wilson, a surgeon in
the United States navy, has returned
to the home of his father-in-law, Will
lam B. Price, 404 MI. Prospect avenue,
after the trip AROUND the world with
Uncle SAINTS armada, He was fleet
surgeon of the fourth division during
the long cruise of $4,000 miles. When
asked to talk of the cruise from the
doctors point of view DIR. Wilson said:
I'VE had a very healthy trip, and as
a body the men were IN better health
when they came back than they were
when they left. For instance. when we
Lad returned to Philadelphia a week or
so ago / saw a marine standing out In
the open air on deck of the Kearsarge
taking a tub bath in a big bucket of
water. 1t was SO cold that the water
froze around his feet. This goes to
show how the men had become hard
ened. Pneumonia is unknown to the
sailors.
1--WE naturally had several changes of
climate. taking into consideration the
fact that our latitude varied from that
of Seattle, WASH, to that Of the Straits
OF Magellan. The men were protected
from il-effects by strict orders as to
what underclothing to wear. Each man
has three suits of different weight. al
though he does not change his outside
clothing except in the tropics, where he
replaces his blue suit with a white one.
Some of the men got seasick, but
after a while they had very little
trouble. In the early part of the trip
out there were forty men seasick on
the Kearsarge, but they weathered a
hard blow on the last lap across the
Atlantic with only n on the sick list.
Few people realize what complete
provisions are made for Jacks health.
Every battleship has a regular hospital,
with an operating room and six NAH
trained nurses. There are two doctors,
one of whom Is always on board. What
would be q ward on land is the hospital
room with eleven berths. Besides these
we have every sanitary necessity, a
pharmacal graduate, and q dispensary
for drugs, like O drug store, only the
bottles are confined In racks. We dis
covered q case of smallpox at Malta,
and were able to isolate the man COM
pletely until he could be landed and
put into a hospital. After his recovery
tho government win see that he gets
home without expense to himself.
'The government realizes that Jacks
health depends a good deal upon the
quality Of the food he puts into his
stomach, so every morsel is carefully
inspected, and he drinks nothing blu
pure distilled water. Every ship ma
an ice machine. and the Ice is made
from distilled water.
"There was really less sickness among
the crews than there would be among
the same number OF men on land. The
average number on the sick list was hv
out of 500 or 700. and the death rate was
small"
DR.. Wilson has been in the nav
eighteen years. and this was his second
trip around the world. He has crossed
the line ten times.

HAMMER IS OUT
AGAINST EYESORES
IN FOURTH WARD
Improvement Association De-
mands the Abandonment
of the Morris Canal.
SUGGESTS A BOULEVARD
In PLACE OF DITCH
Several Other Nuisances Are
Attacked at Meeting Of
Organization.

Nearly all the alleged %nuisances of
the Fourth ward received a thorough
jostling at the hands of the Fourth
Ward Improvement Association, which
assembled in critical mood yesterday.
Many reforms and changes were sug-
gested.
Here are a few suggestions and crit
icisms made by the association:
Abandonment of the Morris canal and
its diversion to some good purpose,
such as a boulevard from Jersey city
to the Oranges.
Improve conditions on the Mulberry
street car lines; these conditions are
now "a very undesirable and detri-
mental influence upon the business con
dition of the ward"
"Pay-as-you-enter" cars were con-
demned for many reasons.
+. AThe association placed its disapproyal
on the Four Corners subway scheme,
declaring it should not be built unless
some better reason than tor the ac-
commodation of the railroads could
be shown.
Compel the Pennsylvania railroad to
place an enclosure or the south-bound
5lue VI tile MdThtL Stiect uepot.
THE condition of the Broad street
station of the Central railroad is UNI
sanitary and filthy"
The requirement. of many cobblestone
streets in the ward was urged, also
better care in keeping them free from
ruts and holes.
The Public Service should be com
PEELED to run its cars at a slower rate
of speed between Mechanic and Clinton
streets. on Broad street, 1t was said.
Regarding the abandonment of the
Morris canal, the association went on
record unanimously as being superla-
lively disguised with present condi-
ions. According to Leopold Meyer,
1T Is a menace to public health, a
nuisance to the city, and it's noisome
odors make life miserable for those in
it's vicinity in summer. We can force
the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company,
lessees Of the canal, to run or Close"

hands of the Legislature and the Gov
ernor
The report of the special finance
committee of the Legislature shows
admirable grasp of the subject and
aside from certain details on which
opinions will differ is fundamentally
sound under present conditions.
For Local Uses.
Apart from this problem, however,
there are certain phases of the So
called school moneys, OF the increased
revenue from the railroad main stem
under the Perkins act of 1906, which
have almost escaped attention. The
dedication of the increase in the main
stem tax to the taxpayers for the use
of the public schools has apparently
overshadowed the fundamental fact
that these moneys do not belong to the
State for State uses. but to the 10
calities for local uses. This distinc-
ton is of the highest Importance. The
agitation for equal taxation, in real
ity for increased tax on the railroads,
was not begun by the State, but by
the localities.
The State mad NJ claims hat 1t
was not receiving a sufficient amount
of tax from the railroads. 1t was the
localities who claimed hal they were
not receiving a sufficient amount OF
tax therefrom, nor a fair amount of
tax as compared with the amount they
were receiving from individuals.

Difference of Opinion.
In enacting laws to this end there
was a difference of opinion as to tn,
manner of taxing the railroad MAR
stem. Some thought it should be as
sessed locally by each taxing district
some thought it should be assessed b,
the State and the aggregate assess
ment properly apportioned among thu
taxing districts through which /
passed; others thought it should %
assessed by the State as an entiret!
from terminal to terminal. But ther'
was no noticeable difference of opin
ion as to who should derive the ben
eft from this increased taxation.
The localities started the equal tai
movement and made the issue solel!
upon the ground that they, and no
the State, we're suffering an injustice
and it was agreed that the new rev
enue from the railroad taxation be
Ionged to the localities for local uses
