Johnson Complains
 of Interference Of
 Politics In Charities

Tn lecture before the North End Improvement company in Bethany chapel, on North Main street yester- day. Superintendent Fred R. Johnson of the Bridgeport Charities Depart ment, severely scored politics as in- terfering materially with the uplift work of the city. That Bridgeport had not made much progress in dealing with the submerged classes and that efforts up to this time were of an elementary character were among oth- CT assertions made.
 Dwelling upon the necessity for se- gregaing the imbeci1e classes in Con necttcut and 1auding the interest shown by members of the chapel in voting for the new aInshouse bonds, Superintendent Johnson showed that the problem of taking care of the poor here was becoming greater than ever before and again advocated more adequate investigation and supervis- ion. Throughout his discourse he as- crGbed the ineff1ciency of the charity
 work to the mixing of politics and in- ltimated that civil service was a ne- cessary requirement in the charities department.
