EAST ORANGE ASSESSMENT
REPORT is REFERRED BACK

A letter from the Board of Educa-
ton was responsible for the referring
back to the Assessment Commission
of the report from opening Elmwood
avenue near the Washington school
at the East Orange City Council
meeting last night. 1t was stated by
Commissioner Titus, of the board,
that the commission had failed to
assess a portion fronting on the ave-
nue. forty-six feet long and about
eight feet wide, owned by Miss Flor
ence j. Wade. The property was twice
offered the board at prices ranging
from SIS to 1925, but refused.
Commissioner Titus stated the tact
the commissioners had not placed any
assessment on the useless gore
might result in the piece obtaining a
greater valuation later on, and the
board would be forced probably to
pay much higher for the ground
should it be needed to add to the
frontage of the school. The board
asked that the ground be decided to
1t. the board assuming the prospective
assessments for opening and grading
the street, but the offer had been re-
fused. The council then decided to
refer the report back to the Assess
ment Commission. The meeting lasted
but thirty-five minutes.

TO STOP RIVER POLLUTION
FROM IMHOFF OUTPOUR

DR.. J. s. Leal, of Paterson, reported
to the Bloomfield Board of Health
last night that in his opinion the
flow from the Imhoff plant at Madi-
son-Chatham, as we'll as Morristown.
was as bad as ordinary sewage mat
ter, and he would assist the town
board in it's actions or procedure in
preventing these plants from poll
luting the river
DR.. Leal claimed that it was in the
power of the State Board of Health
to prevent the pollution of the rivers
of the State, and that he had taken
the matter up several times with the
latter board, but that it had SEEM
ingly closed it's eyes to the existing
conditions or to his protests.
He stated that he was in favor of
action being taken to prevent further
pollution of the Passaic and that he
would cooperate with the board to
that end.
A resolution was passed placing
the matter in the hands of the towns
attorneys and to ask advice of them
on the legal phases.

EAST NEWARK SCHOOL
HAS NEW ALARM SYSTEM

What is considered n of the best
school fire alarm systems in this State
has just been installed in the East
Newark Public School. The system
is comprised of eight boxes and four
gongs. Two boxes are located. on each
floor, one at either end of each corr
ridor. On one side of the building
the boxes bear number SO and on the
other side the number designated
Is %.
The idea is when one o is sound
ed the pupils will march to the exits
on the opposite side, and vice versa.
At the meeting of the East Newark
Board of Education last night Com
missioner Joseph Mcdonald declared
the system had been thoroughly test
ed and shown good results. Hereto
fore only one gong had been used.
Terence II. O'Donnell, custodian of

SAYS SEWER PLAN
CAN'T BAMBOOzLE
Chairman Pierson Refers to
Passaic Valley Agreement
as "Steam-RoIler."

Chairman Edward S. Pierson, of the
joint committee for East Orange, Or
ange and Montclair in the scheme for
erecting a separate sewage disposal
plant, today gave out a statement to
the effect that the committee does not
intend to be "bamboozled'' by the
municipalities that are in the Passaic
Valley Sewage Commission scheme.
Mr.. Pierson at the East Orange
City Council meeting last night made
a report on the favorable action taken
by the State Board of Health on the
plan of the three municipalities. No
action was taken, however.
1.-THE decision of the State Board of
HEALTH said Mr.. Pierson today, was
not only very gratifying, but very
sensible and fair. Our project is not
born of desire, but of necessity.
"It would help matters a great deal
if the municipalities that are in the
Passaic valley sewage scheme could
get over the idea that they can 'bam-
boozle' us.
Steam rollers, even of the Chi
cago pattern, will be of no use in this
controversy. Conferences and cool
headed consideration are needed most,
and that is just what the joint COM
mittee desires and will invite as soon
as a meeting has been held to CON
slider the State Board of Health deci-
sion.'
The fact that the State body has
made the proviso In the giving of the
permission that the water from the
plant De carried to the Passaic river
and not the Third river is acceptable
to the committee, Mr.. Pierson says,
and this was the plan of the joint
body previously.
Montclair is the first of the three
municipalities to take action toward
the building of the proposed plant,
the Town Council there last night
passing a resolution to join with Or
ange and East Orange to employ IN
gineers to provide for the cost of the
condemnation of the right of way for
the plant in Belleville and Bloomfield,
for the cost of construction and for
the maintenance and supervision OF
the proposed plant.
Neither Orange or East Orange has
taken this decisive action as yet, and
1t Is not thought it will be done for a
while. There may be long debate on
the project in the councils of the lat
ter two cities 1t is also believed on
| the scheme, as all the officials are not
united on the Imhoff scheme of dis
posal.

COUNCIL
NOT EXTRAVAGANT
MontcIair Chairman of Finance
Committee Denies Stories OF
Careless Money Spending.

Councilman David Henney, chair
man of the finance committee of the
Montclair Town Council, reported to
that body last night that reports had
gone broadcast that the present
Council was extravagant in It's ex-
penditures. Mr.. Henney said this
was not true, and quoted figures to
carry out his assertion.
According to Mr.. Henney, the town
tax, which is the only moneys owe
which the Council has any control,
has been reduced in the last four
years from 81 to W cents per 500, a
reduction of ten points. In the same
time, he said, the county tax had in
creased from 56 to GA cents, and the
school tax from "a to 80 per 800.
This increase was what made the
taxes higher and was out of the
Councils control.
He Claims Economy.
"Th.s shows said Mr.. Henney,
that the town management has been
more economical than the county
management" He declared that the
Council has been careful and econom-
ical In it's expenditures.
Frank NJ. McDermit, of this city,
appeared before the council on behalt
of a number of property-owners to
protest against the amount of DAM
ages awarded by the Board of AS
SCISSORS for the damage to their
property on Bay street, caused by
the Lackawanna railroad improve
ments.
Lackawanna Road Objects.
M. M. Stallman, counsel of the
Lackawanna railroad, also objected
to the assessment for benefits placed
on the railroad company.
Many other objections were made
by property-owners to the assess
ments and awards in the same street,
and 1t was decided to argue the mat
ter out before the committee on street
opening next Thursday night. All
parties interested will be given a
hearing.
The contract for the plumbing of
the new Town Hall was awarded to
John ]. Kaveny, of Montclair, for
$4,000.
