Purchasing Department Gre
ated Will Be in Charge of
George P. Coles.
BOARD OF
ARCHITECTS ALSO NAMED
FreehoIders Take Steps for
Economy-BeIIeviIIe Bridge
Delay Considered.

In an effort to prevent fraud being
practised on the county in the mat
ter of purchased supplies the Board
of Freeho1ders yesterday created a
county purchasing department to in
sure the delivery of the proper goods
purchased by the county. The sal
airy of the superintendent of this de-
partment was fixed at 81 800 a year,
George p. Coles, proprietor of a print
ing esta blishment at 1886 Broad street,
receiving the appointment. L
Another improvement effected was
the appointment of "a supervising
board of architects, the members of
which will serve without salary. John
f. Capen. of Bloomfield; Herman
Kreitler, of 1854 Mount Prospect ave
nue., and Joseph B. Allen, registered
architects, will compose the architec-
tural board. 1t will be their duty
to pass upon and select all plans and
specifications submitted for all re-
pair and construction work on pub
lie buildings when requested by the
board. All of the appointments are
for two months, ending January 1,
1870 Which Is llt tApli dllOl VI lllC
term of the present board.
The plan of creating a purchasing
department was brought about
through an investigation by the Free
holders, which developed the fact
that in many instances dealers of
various goods were substituting in
ferior goods and charging the county
for the best. In the opinion of the
board a great saving will result from.
the appointment of the board.
The delay of the Bergen and Hud-
son county boards in taking some ac-
tion in the matter of coneurring in
the recent action of the joint bridge
committee, which awarded the con-
tract for the building of the new
Belleville bridge to the Snare &
Triest Company for $275, 900, prompt
ed the adoption Of a resolution call
ing a special meeting of the joint
committee. The present bridge is in
a very dangerous condition, it was
explained. The high cos of the new
structure, which is nearly 800, 900
more than the committee thought 1t
would be, Is said to be responsible
for the delays of the Bergen and
Hudson boards.

relating to his six years as Mayor
and telling what had been accom-
plished Mayor Haussling said: Slx
years ago | told the people that L
wanted to see every man In Newark
get a Sunday to himself; one that he
and his family could enjoy.
"That | have tried to do, and l.
believe that every ~workingman N the
city of Newark has had time to enjoy
one day a week with his family in
a manner that would give him recrea-
ton and rest. So far as Newark be-
ing infested with vice and crime, 1t
is not true. l have " stood Tor
smut and slush in our city and never

know | have done my best to do
right, and l think the people will say
so at the polls on November g."
Mayor Haussling blamed the Re-
publicans for hampering with the
progressive administration he and
his associates had planned and stated
that, had IL not been for the Repub-

the proper location for it.
Before concluding the Mayor told
of the great work done in the city
counsel's office. Mr.. Nugent, declared
Mayor Haussling. had done more
work in that office than the other
city counsels put together. He went
on to state that Mr.. Nugent had
fought every. kind OF corporation with
success and had done his best TO see
that the taxpayers in Newark got a
square deal.
Congressman Eugene r. Kinkead
confined his time to the discussion

country. He went on to praise Cow

executive OF New Jersey.
In conclusion Congressman kinkead
told those present to vote for thu
entire Democratic ticket.
MIR. McDonough defended Mayor
Haussling's liberal Sunday. Before
closing he took a fling at the Ropub-

While there is no promise of acttral

rose steadily until % degrees at !

REPORT HITS
FILM EVILS

The trustees of the Newark City
Home met this afternoon to organize
for the year and to present to the Com
mon Council their report for the fiscal
year ending December 81, 1911.
After lengthy comment on the affairs
and needs of the home, and a state
ment Of the finances showing receipts
and expenditures of S73, 5o4.S4 for the
year, the report presents a detailed
study of the work which throws light
on the work and gives still another
argument for the rigid supervision OF
the cheap motion-picture shows which
the STAR has long advocated.
Beginning with statistics regarding
the nativity of the boys parents, by
which it is shown that those with for
eign-born parents are in the majority
and that of the foreign-born parents
Italians predominant. the report gives
the causes of commitment and the
habits Of the boys. Under the latter
head ii egpear that SO boys were in
the habit of attending cheap shows.
while 50 and so used alcohol and to-
bacco respectively.
Another Illuminating fact was that
the parents of % of the boys were af-
fiicted with excessive use of alcohol,
while there We're only six afflicted with
tuberculosis and four with rheumatism.
Compai.rg the population of the city
with that Of the home, 1t was shown
that the rate per 1000 is only 0.49. This
rate is lower than in any preceding
year except 1910. with 0.46. and 1905,
with 0.49.
