NOW IN THE HANDS
OF A COMMITTEE
tuberculosis Building Project
Not Yet Settled

After hearing several speeches re-
garding the proposed tuberculosis
hospital the board of freeholders on
Wednesday authorized Director John
w. Fancher to appoint committee
of six to consider the matter and re-
port to the board. Director Fancher
appointed on that committee Free
holders Frank C. Carle, Edward d.
Neighbour, Charles r. DeHart and
himself, and also two citizens, DR..
Livingston Farrand and Robert D.
Foote.
The board also authorized the legis-
lative committee to endeavor to have
the law regulating the tuberculosis
hospitals amended SO that in case the
accommodations Of county hospital
are all filled and nonresident patient
are in the hospital and there are ap-
plications from resident patients for
admission to the hospital that the non
resident patients may be discharged
to make room for the resident pa
tients.
The Rev. George Mooney, of Madi-
son, said the statement made at the
previous hearing that Madison had
passed law prohibiting the estab-
fishing of tuberculosis hospital in
that borough had been made under
a misapprehension of the facts and
that it was not true.
Robert d. Foote asserted that this
hospital project is the duty of the
state but as the state won't take it
up it remains for the freeholders to
do something. Mr.. Foote pointed out
the defect in the law that the amend
ment which he presented and which
was adopted by the board would recti
| ty. He further stated that the only
figures regarding cost of maintenance
of any hospital near Morristown was
from Newark where the hospital ac-
commodating sixty-one patients cost
$4,000 last year without counting in
terest on the investment or on the
land. But the cost, Mr.. Foote said,
should not be considered, hospital
either is or is not needed. The coun-
| ty had only leeway of $4,000 in
the amount of taxes 1t could raise
and if the hospital project was
entered into something else must
suffer
M. w. Corwin, of Kenvil, asserted
that the hospital would not be pay
ing thing and that outside of Norris
town and its environs the majority
of the property owners of the county
are comparatively poor men upon
whom the taxes are already burden.
He asserted it to be state matter
and that each county should pay for
it's charity patients as is done for in
sane patients.
Freeholder Neighbour told of hav-
ing conversed with many people re-
garding the project and said that,
thing being done, the cost was the
main point raised, and the sentiment
was against an expensive hospital
building. That Morris, Sussex and
Warren counties should combine and
build a hospital he said had been
suggested but pointed out that be-
cause of it's high altitude this section
was already the Mecca for many suf-
fering from lung trouble anxious to
remain within committing distance OF
New York. With the establishment
of a hospital here, said Mr.. Neigh
bour, there would be rush for Nor
ris county by consumptives from New
York. Brooklyn, Long Island and the
lower sections of this state.
DIR. Farrand and w. G. Smallwood
also spoke.

EDITING AN ENCYCLOPEDIA.
Strenuous Times In Getting Out an

Many adventures befell the French
eighteenth century encyclopedia. More
than once the production of that work,
airy, had been stopped. eight days of
Imprisonment in the Bastille for the
printer being one incident. At the
very last moment, after Diderot had
corrected the final proofs, the printer
and his foreman secretly slashed the
articles right and left, cutting out
everything that seemed even possibly
dangerous, and burned the manu-
script Diderot discovered the atroc-
ity too late when referring to one Of
his own mutilated articles. But the
most remarkable point is that for
years very few persons knew of what
had happened. even the contributors
remaining in ignorance. They had
had enough of their own articles when
writing them.
