ASK mFREEHOLOERS
To HELP IN WAR
ON TUBERCULOSIS
County Officials to Be Consulted
by Executive Committee of
Campaign Organization.
MANY SUGGESTIONS IN
INTEREST OF THE WORK
Headquarters Is Recommended
Where Literature and General
Information May Be Obtained.

Members Of the executive and other
subcommittee of the general commit
tee on tuberculosis, OF which former
Governor Franklin Murphy is presi-
dent, will attend the meeting of the
Essex County Board of Freeholders on
Thursday afternoon, TO confer with the
members of that board as to what the
county authorities can do to help in
the work of abating the ravages of the
white Plague among the poor.
Charles G. Ellsworth, chairman of the
education committee, said today that a
plan of work, or rather suggestions for
the line on which the tuberculosis work
shall be carried on, has been submitted
to the executive committee for Its APP
prevail or amendment.
First, 1t was suggested that a definite
name be adopted for the general com
mittee, SO hat individuals and public
bodies may know to whom communica-
tons shoul be addressed.
Second, that a car store be ac-
quired for a time on a main street.
the store to be large enough to conduct
the general work in.
Third, that a paid superintendent be
employed, who shall ais act as secre-
tary of all committees, and be at head
quarters to give information to visitors,
as the men on the general committee
have their own business to look after.
~Fourth-That a local exhibit of charts
and tuberculosis literature, with PAPER
cups, be made at the headquarters. In
this work the Essex Trades Council has
volunteered to help In this exhibit, and
Typographical Union No. 1903 has
offered to make a special exhibit of the
means they use in printing rooms to
prevent the spread of disease germs.
Sixth, that literature be printed and
distributed giving people information
as to how to keep living apartments
clean and well ventilated, and what
measures to take to prevent the spread
of tuberculosis germs where there is a
patient in the family,
Seventh, that three or four nurses be
employed when the general committee
gets into active work, women who have
had experience with tuberculosis, as
other cities are doing.
The education committee will have
another meeting tomorrow at 4:30
o'clock. Former Senator James Smith,
jr, has called a meeting of the finance
committee for Thursday next.

CHARGE LODGED
AGAINST HIM FOR
HECKLAU ATTACK
Elliott F. Goddard, of Elizabeth,
Held Without Bail in New
ark Court.
HECKLAU'S CONDITION
REMAINS CRITICAL
Skull Broken in Three Places,
Doctors Marvel That He
Survived.

Elliott r. GODDARD, of 232 Railway
street, Elizabeth, who has been helo
at police headquarters since last Sat
urday night on the suspicion of having
~murderously assaulted Reinhold Heck
lau on the evening of March 3, was
arraigned in the First Criminal Court
today and a formal charge of assault
with intent to kill was lodged against
him. The life of Hecklau still hangs
in the balance at the City Hospital, and
for this reason Judge Hahn ordered
Goddard held without bail to await
further developments. Should the in
jured mans condition improve so as
to ascertain that he is out of danger
before tomorrow, Goddard viii in all
probability be given the opportunity
of furnishing bail,
Hecklau's case is said to be one OF
the most remarkable with which the
surgeons of the City Hospital have had
to deal. and they confess that they are
puzzled over the wonderful vitality
that he has thus far displayed. Any
one of the three fractures, they say,
would be sufficient to cause death I'M
der ordinary circumstances, and yet.
although his skull has been fractured
in three places, the man has not as yet
lost consciousness. S~ergeants Kuhn
and Quinn are still engaged in an
effort to clear up the mysteries SUR
rounding the assault, but nothing more
definite has yet been discovered.

TELLS WHY MORE CARS
ARE NOT BEING RUN.
Pass Four Corners, John O'T0oIe
Says, on 7-Sec. Roadway.

In a talk last night to the Clinton
Hill Improvement Association in Berke-
ley Hall, John L. O"Toole, publicity
agent for the Public Service Corpora
ton. presented the transit question to
his listeners from the standpoint of the
corporation. He made a point of the
fact that it would be an impossibility
to run any more cars past the -Four
Corners in rush hours. The cars pass
the centre of the city under a even
second Roadway, he said.
In 1902. h~e-,said, when the Public
Service Corporation was formed, there
were thirty-three cars on the Broad
street line running under a minimum
Roadway of 3 1-3 minutes. Now a ~
minute Roadway is maintained by
siXty-six cars. In 1898 the assessed
value of property in the sixteenth tax
ing district was 81, 100000, and its rise
to $40, 900, 900 in 1908 the speaker at
tributed to the street railroad.
Mr.. O'Toole said in response to an
inquiry that there was no chance of an
extension of the company's lines in the
Clinton section while the twenty-year
franchise law shall be in effect.

Its important, too, that sight should not be lost of the essen
tal fact that all of the five-cent piece does not go to PUBLIC SER
VICE to remain in its Golfers. PUBLIC SERVICE is virtually only
a temporary custodian of a par, of each nickel, for from its re-
ceipfs must go into the public treasury for the direct benefit of
the public large sums annually in payment Of
PERSONAL TAXES,
REAL ESTATE TAXES,
SPECIAL TAXES,
FRANCHISE TAXES and
CAR LICENSE FEES.
Part of each five.cent piece must also be devoted to the pay
rolls of a small army Of employees, which portion quickly finds
its way into local circulation, to the benefit of the community.
AS there are, obviously, other necessary expenses you can see
for yourself that each nickel paid to PUBLIC SERVICE really does
a lot of work And you share the benefits.
