Full value will be demanded by the
Board Of Education before the trans
fer to the State authorities of the new
Normal School at Fourth and Belle
vile avenues. This question was
gone over informally at the meeting
of the committee on buildings,
grounds and supplies yesterday after
noon.
The question as to what the state
authorities would give in return for
the school was brought up. by Com
missioner King. Commissioners Taylor
gave the information that as far as
negotiations had been carried at this
time the State officials offered main
tenance to the full extent and the
keeping up of the standard of in
struction as under the local board
The local board would retain title To
the building. as well as a certain
amount of use for school socials and
similar functions.
Mr.. King, who was supported by
Commissioner Belfatto, was firm in
his assertion that this was not a
sufficient return. He argued that in
asmuch as the whole State profited
by having the school and not only
Newark the State ought also bear
the expense of paying the interest on
the investment-that is. $4,000 on the
$500, 900 bond issue. The board would

ENDS IN FIRST CHURCH

Owing to the success of the Inter
UNCONVENTIONAL Social Service Con-
ference, which was brought to a close
last night in the First Presbyterian
Church, 1t has been decided to make
the conference an annual affair. The
conference will convene during the
first week IN. May next year.
The Right Rev. Edwin s. Lines.
bishop of the Newark diocese of the
Episcopal Church, spoke on "Coopera-
ton Between Churches" at the meet
ing last night. The bishop declared
it behooved the churches to work to-
gether, as the enemies of religion are
much better organized than the re-
ligious forces The hopes of the vari-
Gus labor and religious movements
depend on religion, he declared, and
any movement to better the world
will not succeed unless 1t is rein
forced by religion.

priately decorated with American
flags
Former Judge Robert Carey, of Jer-
sew City addressed the members on
THE Spirit of Brotherhood He de-
clared a new type of good men was
needed to meet the problems of the
present time-men who would dis
card the old way OF doing things and
follow out progressive ideas.
AS an illustration of the new type
OF good man needed he pointed to
those in the medical profession who
endanger and sacrifice their lives In
their labors to benefit mankind. He
declared the evidence of fraternal
friendship at the gathering last night
was one means of bringing out this
new type.

views OF the proposed changes in the
laws governing the selection or
jurors, but before he had proceeded
very far several members made 1t
plan that the topic was not welcomed,

the benefit of the city at the risk OF
his own life. as an example.

Prince. of Passaic, commented on the
extreme youth of some of the men
elected to the Legislature. lie de-
clared that he found 1t took almost
an entire single term for legislator
to get accustomed to the workings OF
that body 1t would be a good plan
to fix the eligible age of an assem-
blyman at 80 years. and a senator at
40 years, he declared. He also as
serted the term for an assemblyman
should be extended from one to two
years and senators from three to four
years.

Nevin. of the National Manufacturers
Association. of New York. and Rich
ard C. Jenkinson. first vice-president
