sewer committee, who were at
Worcester on Sunday. brought back
samples of sludge and water from the

Toned sewage-disposal plant, which
emptieS into a river and which prac-
tise has been ordered abolished. The

POllliCu Oul Tia IL LILO
auxiliary committee was in any sense
to live up to its designation as an
advisory" body, now was the time
to come forward with advice, as the
members were cognizant of the senti-
ment in favor of joining the Passaic
Valley flume, as indicated by the ac-
ton of East Orange and Bloomfield.
The figures of cost for Oranges place
in the joint sewer plan, one-half
million dollars, were cited as inn
portant enough to cause the council
TO exhaust every effort for a better
bargain before authorizing the ex-
penditure of sue a big sum.
The Orange Council members are
impatient of further delay and it is
not unlikely hat at tonight's meeting
formal notice will be given that the
Council will take action either for the
Passaic valley plan or the Imhoff
tanks at the first meeting in October
President John c. Fineran. of the
Council, said action may be taken to-
night. There is a majority vote
against the Imhoff idea and many
believe that Orange will make an
effort to enter the trunk sewer con
tract within two weeks.
Club women and others have writ
ten to the advisory committee asking
them to taxi a stand against the I'm
hoff plan, simply as a matter OF
ethics. Mrs. Louise White Roubaud

Dams, chairman of committee on towr
affairs, representing the Bloomfield
