Restricted to Warehousing.


THE business Of cold storage companies
should possibly also be specifically re-
stricted to warehousing, thus prohibiting
proprietary interest by the company or
it's owners in the articles stored.
II: has transpired in the hearings Of the
committee that the effect Of the main
tenance of cold storage plants in all of
| the larger commercial centers has been
to slightly increase the market price, both
wholesale and retail, Of products during
the plentiful seasons, and to decidedly
reduce what would otherwise be the
wholesale and retail prices of the same
articles during periods Of scarcity.
The charges fixed by our local public
cold storage plant are, 1t would appear,
ed by similar. though much more ex-
tensive, plants in New York. Chicago and
other large depots of food supplies where
there is more or less competition In rates.
Aside from the baneful effect Of render
ing unpalatable and deleterious. as has
been stated, articles stored for unreason-
able periods OF time. there would appear
to be positive benefit to the public gen.
orally in the operation Of cold storage
plants. except az they may possibly be
utilized by large combinations to facili-
tate the cornering OF the market on GER
tain classes OF food supplies and COM
polling extortionate prices from the con-
sumner.
Committees Recommendations.
'In view Of the foregoing considera-
tions, the subcommittee would respect
fully submit. for approval by the COM
mittee on law and legislation and by
| the Chamber OF Commerce. the follow
ing resolutions expressing the unani-
| nous sense of the committee on the
subject of its inquiry:
Resolved by the Washington Cham
Der Of Commerce, after a careful inves-
| tigation by one of it's committees into
the causes of the present high cost of
living in the District OF Columbia, That
| the alarming increases in living ex-
penses affecting the residents of the
capital of the nation are beyond local
control. and are not due in any degree
to extortion practiced by our local
| wholesalers and retailers in commodi-
/ ties entering into household and family
use.
| Resolved further, That. in the judg-
ment of the Chamber, remedial legisla-
| tion should be enacted by Congress
Regulating the cold storage Of food
products. limiting the periods of stor-
lage of particular classes of articles, and
possibly restricting the operations OF
| cold storage companies to q purely
lwarehousing business.
| Resolved further. That a copy OF
these resolutions be forwarded by the
| secretary of the chamber to the special
| committee of Congress now Investigate
| ing the high cost of living and to the
Senate and House committees on the
| District OF Columbia

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, March mime per-
sons were injured more or less seriously
when the Pennsylvania railroad ferry
boat Camden crashed into the Wenonah
OF the same service at slip No. on the
Philadelphia side OF the Delaware river this
morning. The accident was due to the
heavy fog.
Two of the injured were taken to the
Pennsylvania Hospital. They were Mi
chael O'Connor, whose leg is broken. and
Walter Ward. who was treated and dis
charged. The rest Of those who were
hurt were taken to their homes.
OF the two ferryboats, the Camden sus-
tained the more damage. The side on
which is the mems cabin was stove in,
and the forward rails were splintered.
The front part OF one Of the cabins of
the Wenonah was wrecked. but this boat
Is still in commission. Because of the
heavy fog the Camden drifted into the
wrong slip. She should have gone into
slip No. 3. Instead, she nosed into slip
No. 2. AS soon as the pilot. William
Houck, realized the error which had been
made he ordered the engines reversed. His
command was given too late to be Of any

The Asylum Investieat,o,,.

The special committee to investigate
the charges against the management Of
the Burlington County Insane Asylum
met at that institution, on Tuesday A
w. Lofand, who preferred the charges,
was present, and when called before the
committee, read the following statement
Gentlemen
have been advised by your chairman
that this meeting is not open to the public
and taxpayers of this county and that
would not be permitted to be represented
by counsel
Under these conditions, which l have
been advised you would not change, /
must, In justice to the taxpayers of this
county and myself, refuse to present any
testimony to you here today.
But at any time that l am advised that
this investigation will be open to the tax
payers of this county and the public, and
that l will be permitted to be represented
by counsel, will appear before your COM
mittee and present such testimony as |
have to substantiate the charges made. at
such time and place as this committee
may fix.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Lofiand's read
ing he retired from the room, and the
committee discussed the advisability of
what procedure should be pursued 1t
was decided that it would be perfectly
proper, as Mr.. Lofand declined to SUBJ
stantiate his charges, to abandon the in
vestigation, but the committee concluded
to go ahead and hear such witnesses as
might be available. This was done and
much evidence was secured. The com
mittee will render a report to the Board
of Freeholders at the meeting next week.

Christmas Vacation.

Many school teachers have been
asking if there would be school In the
public schools on Monday following Christ
mas, because the Monday following
Christmas Is really the day to be observed
this year by the secular world as the Day
of Nativity. 1t so happens that Christmas
falls on Sunday this year, and in conse.
quence the State department of public
schools has been besieged for information
as to the proper thing to do with the
schools.
State Superintendent of Public Iustruc.
ton Charles J. Baxter has written that
the law is explicit in stating that when
such holiday occurs on Sundays, then
the following day in the week is to be OBJ
served, and he admonishes all school
teachers to have their schools closed the
day after Christmas, that is, when school
closes Friday before Christmas In the
country districts, it will not open again
until the following Tuesday.

Sounds absurd, possibly to say that a
penny spent in this direction will do good
but look what many pennies will do.
Fifty million of these stamps have been
distributed over the United States You
can easily figure what a penny for each
one will bring to the fund to fight the
dread disease of consumption In addition
TO aiding the National effort to stamp out
tuberculosis you also benefit an affair of
local Importance. For every stamp sold
In Mount Holly the fund for the main
tenance of the visiting nurse receives a
percentage. No easier way can be devised
for every citizen of Mount Holly to help
one of the most worthy objects ever pre-
sented to the people of this vicinity
There are many families who will readily
testify to the great comfort brought to
their homes by the lady who is ready at
any time, day or night, to give attention
to the sick. Spend something for Red
Cross Stamps, even if it be but penny.
In connection with this it will not be
amiss to call attention to a ruling of the
post Office authorities about attaching
stamps to packages. No articles will be
admitted to Guatemala, Uruguay or Por-
tugal if they bear charity stamps resembl-
ing postage stamps. In other countries
they will be admitted if they are placed
on the side of the package that does not
bear the address. Articles addressed to
countries that will not recognize the
stamps will be returned to the sender, if
known, therefore the sender should write
in one corner of the package his name
and address, otherwise the package ma v
go to the dead letter office.
