toner from another state appearing

grounds he is not familiar with the

motion declaring the defendants

matter and also he would allow her
to assist Mr.. Brown present the case

FOR INSPECTOR
OF PLUMBING
Labor Men of This City Want
Office Created.

There Is a movement on foot In
this city, among the labor organiza-
tions, to petition the Board of Health
to consider Senate,Bu No. $50, pass
ed at the last session, which makes
it optional with the board whether
the new office of special plumbing
inspector is created, or not. At
the present time the unions have
! succeeded in passing such a measure
in the Board of Health of Newark
and are now bending all efforts to
accomplish the same purpose in
Elizabeth and New Brunswick.
1t would be the duty Of such in
spector to review all plumbing work
done in this city, and approve the
same before final inspection is made
by the health department. At the
present time the inspection is made
by either Inspectors Kerr or Frost,
of the department, who are also en-
plOyed to gather data On all COM
plants, etc. The plumbers contend
the task should be placed in the
hands of a capable expert. The Of
flee would pay a salary in the neigh
borhOod of $1,000 a year.
James Davis, business agent of
the Middlesex Trades Council, call
ed a mass meeting of bosses and
jOurneymen, of the plumbers union,
at New Brunswick last night and the
question of creating this Office in
that city was thoroughly discussed.
1t was the sentiment of the gather
ing that further action be taken to
petition the Board Of Health of that
city for legislation creating the Of
fee Of plumbing inspector in that
city. At the present time no fnspec-
ton or permit is necessary for a
plumbing job in New Brunswick, it
is said.
Mr.. Davis, when seer today, could
not state how oon the local unions
will begin united efforts to have the
health board pass such a measure.
He thought, however, that action
will take place within the next two
months so as to enable the depart
ment. If they create the Office, to In
clude the salary il the city's budget.
Officer Davis had words of praise for
the present system but believes this
important piece Of sanitary work
should be done by a competent
plumbing expert,
