READY TO AWARD
GARBAGE CONTRACT
Hoboken Man Likely to Get
the Work in
Harrison.

The street committee OF the HarFI-
son Town Council has practically
reached a decision in the matter Of
awarding the contract for the re-
moval of garbage from the town for
three years. At the last meeting Of
the council a number of bids were
received and the lowest figure was
submitted by Philip Sodone, of Hoo
boken His bid was $685.. 80. There
was an opinion expressed at the
meeting that the contract should be
kept within the town and that the
lowest Harrison bidder be awarded
the contract.
A storm O. protest greeted this
proposition, and the matter was laid
over Last nssht the committee,
with Sodonc went over the matter
end decided 20 award the contract TO
Sodone If he furnished bond Of
$4,000 to insure the faithful performs
ance of his work.
1t is expected Bodone will have the
bond ready by Friday night, when
a special committee meeting will be
held. The idea of the high bond Is
to escape just such a predicament as
is claimed the city of Newark Is In
at the present time.
Councilman John j. DAILY, chairman
of the street committee, said today
that one of the provisions In the con-
tract will be that. the bondsman VIII
be held strictly to account should
the contractor fail in his work.
Sodone will be paid on a sliding
scale. 1t is proposed to give him 81, 700
for the first years work $4,000 for
the second. and SO, S9O.SO for the third.
The idea of holding the major portion
until the end is to prevent Sodone
from any possible duty Sinking dur
ing the last year.

F|ELDER'S VETO
PLEASES KEARNY.
1t. Kills Bill Which Enforced
Concrete Construction of
Washington School.

The action of Governor Fielder in
vetoing the bill which provided that
school boards complete school build
ings, work upon which had been held
unr by litigation. has greatly pleased
the members of the Citizens and Tax
payers Association of the First and
Second wards. Kearny. This assoeia-
ton has fought hard to prevent the
completion of the Washington School
in the First ward of the town.
This building, at least the part
which has been erected. is of concrete
and the civic organization favored
brick. Through its efforts the work
was tied up, following a court de-
cision that the contract under which
the work was being done had been
illegally let.
Concerning the action of Governor
Fielder, Samuel w. Smith, one of the
leading members of the association,
today made the following statement;
1--WE are jubllant at the decision Of
the governor. We are sorry because
the Kearny Board of Education has
Numbered all along in persisting in
trying to force upon the people of
this ward. against their expressed
wishes. concrete school. If the
hoard were constrained not to listen
to ms in our demands for brick and
the members must insist on concrete.
we are opposed to engaging an archi-
tect already in the employ of the con-
tractors.
I'VE want honest competition and
an architect who thoroughly under
stands this mode of construction TO
draw the plans. we felt it would be
well for the Board of Education to
confer with a committee from our or
ganlzation with a view of finding
a possible solution of this perplexing
question"

SAYS GILT EDGE"
BILLS ARE n. c.
Business Buyer Sues Former
Owner, Claiming He Has
Been Duped.

Just why several thousand dollars
in gilt edged" accounts cannot be
collected will be brought out when
Edward B. Bach. of 126 South
Eleventh street, appears before Vice
Chancellor Stevens on April ! on an
injunction sued out by George |.
Lowenstein, who owns a liquor bust
ness at 2s3 Plane street incidentally,
Mr.. Lowenstein now says that all is
not gold that glitters, and he wants
Mr.. Bach to guarantee the collection
Of the accounts by putting up bond.
The accounts total Sc, 26o.67
More than that Lowenstein wants
back a mortgage he gave to Bach as
security on two notes, and he asks
that their agreement of sale be recti-
lied to include a covenant covering
the immediate payment of back ac-
counts.
Lowenstein bought the liquor bust
ness from Bach on November 80 last
The purchase price was $40, 1927. part
of which Lowenstein paid in cash
with the balance In two notes. one
for $91149 to run three months and
the other for $971.4 As to become due in
six months. AS collateral security on
the notes Lowenstein assigned the
So 500 mortgage to Bach with the
understanding that it was to be re-
assigned when the notes were paid
he says.
Before the sale was made Bach
showed Lowenstein the book ac-
counts. Chief among them was a
debt of William A. Corbett, who for
merly kept a saloon on Broad street
opposite the City Hall. This was for
Suisse, Lowenstein says that when
he questioned the accounts Bach told
him that they were worth 100 cents
on the dollar" and that he would
guarantee they would be paid in a
year and he would put up a bond for
them, but when Bach later declared
he owned the house he lived in Low
enstein deemed that sufficient Sc
I-curity and waived the bond, he says
Lowenstein charges that he has since
learned Bach owns no property, is in
solvent and that he has even trans
ferred the purchase money to his wife
and son. Moses S. Bach.
Jacob l.. Newman, counsel for Low
enstein. appeared before Vice-Chan-
cellor Stevens and secured the rule.
1t also summons the National New
ark Banking Company to show cause
why they should not refund Lowen-
STEMS notes for cancellation. The
bill asks that Bach be compelled to
reassign the mortgage on payment of
the notes. The covenant Lowenstein
seeks to have incorporated in the orr
iginal agreement is an alleged orig
ipal understanding that Bach was to
make good on all back accounts UNI
paid after November, 1913, while
Lowenstein was to credit him with all
money paid by the respective debt
CTS fJr merchandise bough- during
the year. Bach was also to keep out
of the liquor business In New Jersey
for ten years and in return Lowen-
stein was to use Bach's trade name.

Inadequate Facilities.

Predicting a loss of life in case of
fire. School Trustee Hinkley Mitchell
criticized a recent fire drill in the
Park School, Nutley, as we'll as some
of the alleged defects in the construc-
ton of the building. His remarks
were made at meeting of the Board
of Education of that town last night.
He told the board that in making
an inspection of the school recently
M had occasion to witness a fire drill.
which he said. was not to the credit
of the school He told of the con-
fusion on the main floor when the
pupils coming down the stairs met at
the south door to get out
He recommended that two windows
in the south side of the kindergarten
room be cut out and be made into
a door, thus enabling the pupils in
that room and the one next to it to
go out by this door The south door
would be for the use of the pupils of
the second floor.
Trustee Mitchell wanted test drill
made. He suggested that the build
ing BY some means be filled with
smoke, to ascertain just how great
the confusion would be in case of
fire. This idea was frowned upon by
the board as being too dangerous.
The matter of fire-doo was referred

The mayor wanted the board as a
body to make the exchange, While
Booth told the mayor that the board

said that the probable outcome would
be by having the people of the town

marks one of the

At the time mat
