WOULD BOND
MORRISTOWlN.
Civic Association Adopts Reso-
luton Favoring Bond IS
sue Of $5OO,OOO.
HOWARD ]. COLES ADDRESS

Resolutions favoring the issuing of
bonds to the amount Of 100000 were
adopted by the Morristown Civic asso-
citation at its meeting in the Lyceum
theatre on Wednesday evening. The
amount Of money is to be spent for the
+" beautifying of Morristown, the
greater part for the repair of the
streets. Senator Edward X. Mills
warned the association that it was
doubtful if the legislature would con-
sent to such bonding.
Street Commissioner Howard j. Cole
made an address on the condition of
the streets and what should be done
| in the way of repairs.
He said in part:
The streets of a town are Indicative
of the degree to which civic pride has
taken the place of civic Indifference !;
they also form the basis on which the
visitor builds up his impressions of the
town. If the streets are well kept and
in good condition lie takes away with
him pleasant memories of the place.
Civic Indifference is the result Of
pessimism, apathy and dry-rot, gen
eral lassitude combined with forget
fulness and neglect of surroundings,
little thought of the present and none
for the future.
Most visitors to Morristown use Nor
ris street as a means of reaching the
business center and 90 away with an
| idea that all the streets of the town
are rough and worn out. This is true
to large degree but, as the advertise
ment says, There's a reason as for
many years their maintenance has
been neglected and on top Of that the
construction of the sanitary sewer sys-
tenn disturbed whatever Integrity re-
mained in the road surface further
more we can not expect any resurfaced
roadways until the sewer laterals have
been installed.
There are approximately twenty-six
miles of streets within the corporate
limits of which six miles are under the
control of the county and comprise the
main thoroughfares. Madison avenue,
South street, Speedwen avenue, Mount

MEDICAL MEN
FLAY FORT
Criticize His Action IN Regard
to the Osteopath Bill and
Censure Him For Insults.
DEFENDS DR., |. NJ. HALSEY

The Morris County Medical society
was organized in 1916, and although
this society is nearly a century old, its
records do not show that it has ever
held special meeting before Thurs
day last, when DR.. Peter S. Mallon,
president Of the society, in response to
a petition from ten members, called a
meeting.
The meeting was attended by more
medical men than has attended any
one meeting in the last quarter of a
century. Besides the regular members
there were present DR.. D. Q. English,
of New Brunswick, who is cne of the
editors of the journal of the State Med
ical society; DR.. W. E. Ramsay, of Perth
Amboy, the introducer of Assembly
Bill No. 156 /; DR.. r. I'll. Hammil; DR.,
w. Fl. Lawrence and DR.. w. j. Lam
son, of Summit. These visiting ply
sicians were given the privileges of the
society and took deep interest in the
proceedings and an active part in the
discussions,
DR.. Ramsay reviewed the history OF
the Medical Practice Bill known as
Assembly 156, from the time of its in
PRODUCTION in the House of Assembly
to its veto by Governor Fort. He Wig
orously arraigned the Governor as be
ing insincere and antagonistic to the
bill from the very start.
DR.. English criticized the Governor
for not treating the physicians of the
state fairly, and for his very weak rea
sons put forth as an excuse for moi
signing Assembly Bill 1856.
DR.. Lawrence, of Summit, who was
present at the hearing before the Gov
ernor, verified everything relative tc
the hearing that had been stated by
DR.. Ramsay. He said that DR.. Hal
sey's conduct was dignified and gentle
manly and that he regretted that the
Governor did not follow DR.. Halsey's
example.
The physicians assembled at this
meeting of the Morris County Medical
society we're indignant at the Cover
nor, and while many of them made
but brief remarks, no one could doubt
