TOTAL EXPENSE
OF CIVIC UNION
$2l9.10 Expended in Election
of Three Men.

Peter A. Peterson, as chairman
and campaign manager of the Civic
Union candidates, today filed the fol-
lowing list of election expenses with
City Clerk LaRoe: Advertising and
printing, $6S,50; clerical help, $40;
county clerk for voters list, $14.30;
distributing cards, $23; carfare,
$3.50; incidentals, 81; stamps, sos;
telephone, $5; postal cards, $3.50;
total, $219,10. The union elected
three members to the excise board,
Harry M, Germs, D. w. Boehm and
Michael Seaman.
Before calling meeting to effect
permenant organization of the
Civic Union, Chairman Peterson de-
sires to enroll several hundred more
members, as the league will broaden
its field of labor and work for the
general uplift of the city. 1t is also
desired that the newly elected re-
form excise commissioners feel the
strong power OF a large body OF
representative citizens at their back
so that they will see that their efforts
for excise improvement are heartily
appreciated by large number of
voters. According 10 Mr.. Peterson
the excise board will have specific
duty, but that voters will also have
a no less emphatic duty to support
and encourage the commissioners In
their work of reform. In an inter
view with NEWS representative
yesterday afternoon he said
at is true that the excise board
will have the power to regulate and
control the sale of liquor. But 1t is
equally true that, being elected by
the people. 1t is their duty to listen
to the voice of those citizens. II the
Civic Union by healthy membership
will back the board they can greatly
aid the commissioners with reference
to the decision of questions involving
the moral welfare Of the city. There
is no doubt that the powers of evil
will at all times be at work, and it
behooves the powers of good to be
equally active"

BUTCHERS AND
BAKERS CLEAN
Stringent Orders of Board
of Health's Food Inspector
Are Being Enforced.
CLEAN UNIFORMS
Conditions in Stores lmprov-
inQ--Closs Watch Kept on
the Unsanitary Places.

Such stringent orders have been
enforced by the officials of the
Board of Health and such frequent
inspections have been made by In
spector OF Foods Anton ]. Mikalat-
czak that the condition of bakeries
and butcher shops In this city are
much improved over the state of
AFFAIRS that existed about q month
ago and this city can now be ranked
with nearly any city of similar size In
cleanliness. Every baker In this city
while at work is wearing clean white
caps, Jackets and aprons. Butchers
have been ordered to wear cleain
white uniforms and have their hands
and finger nails clean. The Board
OF Health Is making such q thorough
inspection Of the condition Of the
foods consumed in this city and are
making frequent vista to every
butcher. grocer and baker, that all
these retailers have finally decided
that 1t IL the best policy to comply
with the law and as a result the ter
rible and filthy condition Of many
stores and other nuisances formerly
characteristic OF many stores have
been abated.
There are believed to be several
hlthy restaurants in this city who
are doing business with little inter-
ference from health authorities at
present, but It is understood that
the health commissioners are after
these and will soon force the pro-
prietors to remedy conditions or the
places In question will be closed.
While Inspector MikalaJczak would
not state anything concerning the
restaurants. 1t 10 believed that he
made several serious complaints
against certain eating places which
were acted upon in the private ses-
sion held Tuesday night by the Board
of Health.
1t was learned today that Inspector
Mikala1czak made inspections in the
so-called Budapest section the last
few days and found close watch on
the stores In that vicinity necessary
as the conditions there should be
improved.
Other points at the extremities of
the city's limits are now being in
spected and after these points are
cleaased from the fiEhy stale, the
whole city will be in such condition
as to warrant much praise TO the off,
cials and members of the Board Of
Health.

Following an announcement made

that Prosecutor Silzer had again con-
ferred with Acting Mayor Garretson
concerning the permanent stopping
Of boxing here, Harry P. Fox of the
Permo A. A, was quoted as making
statements yesterday, the truth OF
which he denies today, and as a re-
suit he may be caused by Prosecutor
George s. Silzer to appear before the
grand jury to tell what he knows
concerning law violations In this
city. Mr.. Silzer made the following
statement today:
II would pay no attention to the
matter If it did not do an injustice to
Mr.. Stricken, who has had nothing
to do with the boxing matter in
Perth Amboy. Whatever had been
done, was done by me personally,

Garretson in October gives all the
facts.
Perth Amboy is a law abiding
community and / assume that the
local authorities are competent to
deal with conditions in the city.

Sunday violations Ha is rrrnort q 4

According TO Acting Mavor Garrett
sou, as published in the NEWS Tues
day, Prosecutor Silzer called the act
ing mayor on the telephone about
noon Of that date and warned him
about reported re-opening OF
local boxing club. He repeated some
of what he had said In October con
cerning the stringent laws on boxing
and put it up TO local authorities to
stop any violations on that score
Mr.. Garretson saws he even intima
ted he would have his own men here
to stop boxing If It was carried on
unhfndered by the local authorities.

Tax Sale Today.

ABOUT S1,50J IN ARREARS

Seventy pieces of property revert
ed to the city today because no bid
ders appeared at the annual sale OF
land for unpaid taxes in Collector of
Revenue Whites office at 10 o'clock
this morning. 1t was the first time
in years, If not in the history of the
city, that no individuals or firms ap-
peared to bid. 1t was stated that
the probable reason was that opposi-
tion had been given alleged property
sharks at previous sales. They for
merly gobbled up property as they
saw fit and when efforts were made
by the original owners to redeem It
exorbitant charges would be made, 1t
is declared.
The property sold represented tax
es In arrears to the extent of $500
The list advertised for sale included
three other parcels of land for which
taxes were paid just prior to the sale

how a man could be- technically

flying the authorities or the law

Another part OF the interview
misinterpreted was that concerning
dance halls and Sunday violations.
This did not refer or apply to excise
laws at all. / stated that there were
violations OF these laws but as they
made necessary by custom and were
not made in defiance of the authori-
ties and met with the approval OF a
majority of the people they were,
very naturally, tolerated. Neverthe-
less they were technical violations If
any over-conscientious official de-
sired to draw so fine a line

has come before me I cannot refrain
from feeling that there was more Of
the personality of Mr.. Silzer and Mr.
