GERMANTOWN TO FIGHT
FOR ADDITIONAL POLICE
Citizens Aroused BY Councils Failure
to Comply With Director POrter's
Request for Funds to Increase Force.
Organizations Unite.


United action to force an appropriation from
Councils for more police in Germantown was
discussed today by leading civic workers when
they learned that Councils had ignored Director
Porters demand for provision for 500 new po-
cemen.
Three Germantown associations will combine
in the new effort to get adequate protection.
For several months there has been agitation
for more police as the result Of many robberies
in the Germantown section.
The three organizations are the Germantown
Business Mems Association, the Germantown
and Chestnut Hill Improvement Association and
the East Germantown Improvement Association.
A month ago delegations from all three inter-
viewed Director Porter and urged the necessity
for more police in their districts. They pointed
out the record OF robberies in the section, de-
elarng the present force in Germantown/too
small to meet the situation.
The organizations also sent many letters to
Councils asking for an appropriation for more
police, but the letters were ignored. The same
fate befell Director Porters request at Councils
meeting Thursday. 1t was learned today that
members of the East Germantown Improvement
League are talking Of forming Vigilance Com
mttee to keep down the number OF robberies in
that section
Like measures may be resorted to by MEM
bers Of the other two organizations. Residents
of Germantown are virtually in state of terror
because of the large number of robberies.
The Rev. Harle w. Hathaway. pastor of the
Covenant Presbyterian Church, of 21st street
and Chelten avenue, said:
II cannot understand how City Councils can
remain passive when it knows what conditions
in Germantown. We are virtually helpless
here"
William NJ. Bmhardt president of the German
town and Chestnut Hill Improvement Associa-
tion, said:
1--WE shall certainly combine the work of the
Germantown civic organizations. The lack OF
police is appalling. Not only do we need police
to prevent burglarles, but the main thorough
fares are the scenes Of many accidents because
they are not properly pollced."

Knowledge for the Poor.

For the we'll man. or woman, diet
etic knowledge is primarily question
of dollars and cents. but for the
poor man. particularly with a family
of growing children, this aspect of
the case may have very powerful
effect upon health. AS DIR. Graham
Lusk has very we'll said. the laboring
mans efficiency depends upon his
stoking. and every man. or his wife,
should be a competent fireman at this
sort of stocking. No one, for example,
having trouble to make both ends meet
should spend money for a can of to-
matoes, or any one of dozens of 9th
err so-called foods. which have, com
parative!y speaking, no food value
whatever 1t is ordinarily estimated
that Woodworking man requires
about 5000 calories per day, an office
man about $500.
