Public Service Application
to Lay Tracks on Jackson
Avenue Bridge Is Held Up

The joint bridge committees of
Hudson and Essex counties yesterday
held up the application of the Public
Service Railway Company for the
privilege of laying tracks across the
Jackson street bridge pending the re-
suit of an appeal from Chancery
Court decision in which an injunc-
ton was granted the two counties
restraining them from tearing up the
tracks on the Bridge street bridge.
This decision 1t is expected will
determine whether the freeholders'
committees have the right to estab-
fish the amount of compensation that
shall be paid by public utility COM
panies for the right to use county
bridges for traffic.
John O'Toole. representing the Pub
lie Service Company, stated, in answer
20 a question by County Counsel
Jones. that the company's attitude
was that it does not consider that it
Is compelled to pay any stipulated
sum for the privilege of the bridge,
but that it Is in the position of owners
Of other vehicles on the public high
WAYS crossing the bridges, which are
not assessed for the use of them.
The appeal will be heard in the
February term of court, Mr.. Jones
said. and in laying the matter over the
two county counsels and chairmen
We're given power to take such steps
as they may deem necessary for the
protection of the interests of the
counties.
Supervising Engineer James owen
stated that q change had been made
T in the ruling of the War Department
regarding the right of way OF river
traffic and that instead of the latter
being supreme, the order had been
reversed. and now bridge traffic has
the right of way.

LEAGUE SUGGESTS
EFFICIENCY EXPERT
Behind Closed Doors BelleVllle
Organization Confers With
Town Officials.

With the newspaper representatives
excluded, the Citizens League OF
Belleville last night adopted resolu-
ton suggesting the employment OF an
efficiency expert to devise IAN effl-
cient and economical system of gov
eminent In the town" At least that
was the statement that James ]. Tur-
ner was instructed to give out after
the meeting. The meeting was held at
the Belleville Clubhouse.
The present system of government
1t was said, Is lax in many respects
and Is responsible for many defects
occasioned by acts of the officials.
The matter will be brought before the
council tomorrow night and it is ex-
pected that that body will recon-
mend that the incoming council en-
gage the expert.
1t was likewise suggested, it is said,
that the township engineer and town
attorney should be placed on sala-
ried basis, and these officers and the
town clerk give all of their time TO the
town. It was advised that the present
system of employing an assistant tax
collector and superintendent of the
water department had shown its efti-
cheney, inasmuch as $500 had been
turned over to the treasurer as the re-
suit of tax searches.
The officials were advised that IN
their selection of men to fill Vacan-
cies political services should not be
considered The meeting Thought
that none, not in sympathy with the
object of the league, should be ap-
pointed.
Councilman George r. Daniels, Re-
publican, said afterward that he dlo
not attend because he had other
business requiring his spare mo-
ments. Councilman Edmund w.
Rechtoldt and Councilman-elect Jo-
seph A. Manning, Democrats, could

ragher, Democrat, was on his way

o'clock. The whispering reached the

question.
Mayor Denison, in behalf of the
guests, thought that the members OF
the league should decide the ques-
ton. Accordingly, Mr. Jones re-
quested the reporters to retire. to
allow the members to decide. Two
minuates later Secretary Turner
notified the reporters that the league
decided not to admit them to the

CLASH EXPECTED
ON CONSERVATION
State and Federal Rights Issue
at Congress Which Opened
Today.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-It is evil
dent when the National Conservation
Congress met today in its fifth an
nual convention that a sharp fight
was contemplated on Federal poll
cies by those delegates who contend
the Washington government is usurp-
ing the rights of the States to regu-
late their own possessions. 1t was re-
ported early that the committee ap-
pointed to consider the water power
problem had failed to agree and that
the majority would recommend a re-
vision of the governments conserva-
ton methods.
States rights advocates will meet
with strenuous opposition This was
made apparent in the speech of
Charles Lathrop Pack, retiring presi-
dent of the organization, who de-
clared the enemies sought to make 1t
appear that conservation meant res
ervation and the locking up of nat
ural resources for future generations.
Another phase of combat" he
added after calling on his hearers
to fight the first named charge,
"arises from the insistence with
which some interests strive to make
1t appear that there Is a popular
clamor for State control of the great
government properties in forest and
stream.
''There are those who prefer a re-
turn to the older order of things
wherein wasteful gain was the key
note. 1t is inevitable that with these
people true conservation should be
unpopular. Thus recognized, the
enemy is half defeated. We must
spare no effort, however, to insure
complete defeat That we can do it
we all know That we must do it
is obvious"

GAS METER Thief
IMPER|LS MANY
People Asleep in House as
Fumes from Cellar Fill
Rooms.

The lives of six men and two women
were endangered early today when
negro ripped a. gas meter from its
fastenings in the cellar OF the restau-
rant of Richard Burgess, OF 375 Main
street, East Orange, for the purpose
OF robbing 1t. The building is directly
opposite the police station.
Gas was pouring into the rooms
above the restaurant where the peo-
pie were asleep when Mr.. Burgess
arrived at his place at $3.50 o'clock.
He detected the odor of the gas upon
opening the front door, and hurrying
to the rear yard he saw a negro, who
was working for him since last Sat-
urday, smashing the meter with a
stone. The negro fed when he saw
his employer Mr.. Burgess went to
the upper floors and aroused the oc-
cupants of the rooms, most of whom
were boarders.
The escaping gas was finding its
way to the rooms of Mr.. and Mrs.
Ted Phillips on the second floor, where
a kitchen stove was red-hot, when the
proprietor of the restaurant sounded
the warning. Mrs. Phillips, who con-
ducts a lunch room few doors from
her home, left the house at o'clock
to open her place of business.
Adjoining the restaurant is a flower
shop, and valuable plants and flowers
In the place were destroyed by the
gas. The proprietors of the shop
sleep in rooms above their place, and
they were informed of the danger
while still in bed. A number of com
muters who breakfast In the restau-
rant went to business without their
meal, aa 1t was impossible to prepare
food in the gas-fllled kitchen.
After opening most of the windows
In the house Mr.. Burgess went to
police headquarters, and Desk Ser
geant Frank Patterson sent Police
men Williams and Vetter to the
house. In the meantime the gas COM
Dany was notified and the gas was
shut off before further damage re-
suited.
The negro secured all the money
that was in the meter. Search of the
neighborhood failed to reveal the
whereabouts of the man. Mr.. Burgess
told the police the man applied for
work Saturday, and he give him a job
as a cook in the restaurant. The
negro, Mr.. Burgess said, did not know
much about this locality, and prob
ably drifted into the city from some
distant place. Detectives David Wen
del and Harry Riker of the East Or
ange force, are searching for him,

Dear Proverb Editor:
| have been delegated to PROFOUND
two queries to you. First, when two
OF more, proverbs Identical in mean
ing, but differing slightly in the word
ing, are given in Proverb BOOK, VIII
either of them be accepted as correct,
or must it be the particular one, Sc
lected by the maker of the list? That
would seem to be mere chance.
Second, my friend says that In the
former contests three answers were
allowed for each proverb, which is not
the case now. Is he correct?
MRS. N. L. G.
There is a definite answer to each
and it is for this reason that you are
allowed to answer any proyerb or
proverbs in as many ways as you see
fit. The rules, however, limit you TO
$50 answers for the entire series.
Dear Contest Editor:
Kindly let me know If 1t is permits
sible to paste the proverbs cut from

proverb on each page?
Fix 'em up in any way you see fit.

White
Chewing
Gum

Talk No. \
THIS is the first of a series
l. of MOJO Chewing Gum
talks.
They deal with dirt, dirt
that people actually put in
their mouths and swallow.
Perhaps this will startle you,
but we assure you we shall
present nothing but facts.
Dirt chewing and gum
chewing have gone together
because no one ever took
the trouble to make a clean,
white, pure Chewing Gum.
The Chewing Gum with
which you are familiar is
muddy in color and filled
with black specks because it
is not clean.
The dirt in Chewing Gum
originates in the crude gum
from which it is made. This
crude gum is the sap of a
tropical tree and the dirt
collects in it while it is being
gathered in the forests.
We had an idea that
the public would appre-
ciate a clean Chewing
Gum. The result of this
idea is MO-JO Chewing
Gum, which to-day is the
only CLEAN, pure, white
Chewing Gum made,
delicious in its favor,
dainty in its packing,
delightful in its texture
