WILL CALL EXTRA
JUDGE TO COUNTY
Martin and Osborne Unable to
Clear Up Work on
Calendar.

Just as soon as the necessary ar
rangements can be made by County
Judges William P Martin and Harry
V. Osborn and County Prosecutor
Louis Hood an extra judge of the
Court Of Common Pleas will be tenn
porarily installed in Essex county to
relieve the congestion in both the
criminal and civil calendars of the
county courts.
To do this it will be necessary to
borrow Common Pleas judge from
some other county in the State for 8
short period, probably six weeks or
two months. At present Judge Mar
tin and Judge Osborne are SO crowded
with work that they can make no
Roadway in clearing the county jail
of prisoners await ng trial, although
both the judges and the prosecutor
has been endeavoring to do this
since the opening of the Sept ember
term OF court.
The method Of relieving Just such
contingency as now exists in Essex
county is provided for in the statutes
of the State. which say that in case
of judge of the Common Pleas
Court becoming Ill or through any
other reason being unable to keep UP
the work of the court, or in cases
where the work is too heavy for the
regularly appointed judges of a
county a judge of another county
may be employed TO act in the stead
of or in conjunction with the regular
judges.
Judge Harry V. Osborne said today
that 1t was an absolute necessity that
help be given III Essex county at this
Time and said that himself and Judge
Martin were no looking over the field
with a view to getting a judge from
another county to come to Essex for
period and help get the civil and
criminal calendars of the county
courts somewhere near cleaned up.
As yet no actual steps have been
taken, as il will first have to be as
certained from what county a judge
could be obtained. II is expected that
the matter will be arranged in time
To- have the temporary judge take up
his duties in this coursy shortly after
the beginning of the new year
1t was pointed out by Judge Osborne
today that it would Pre- badly be neces-
sary to convert the Board of Freehold
ers' room at the courthouse into a
temporary courtroom, as It is the only
room in the building that is available.

New Bridge Street Bridge
Out of Commission for Time

When the new bridge at Bridge
street was opened q short time ago
West Hudsonites believed they had
seen the last delay at tho point In
question. For months they had been
disconnected because of the failure,
at times, of the temporary bascule
structure to work properly. Last
night the new bridge duplicated the
work of the much desp sed span. at
least insofar as the failure to close
is concerned. Something went wrong
with the engine and the draw, after
having been opened could not be
closed for some time. 1t was neces-
sary to send all traffic on the Harri-
son, Hackensack and Turnpike Lines
oyer Clay street for some time.
