Nutley Favors Admission of
Bloomfield to Sewer Pact

After many postponements the Nut
ley Board of Commissioners last
night passed resolution favoring the
admission of Bloomfield to the Pas
sale Valley fund sewer agree
ment, provided the conditions of its
entrance are favorable to the Passaic
Valley sewer commission.
A letter was received from James
D. Foy, publisher of the Nutley Sun,
offering to do the legal advertising
of the town at the rate of three cents
line for the first insertion and two
cents a line the remaining. The rates
being paid the Ryan Press. which now
does the legal work, are four cents a
line for the first insertion and three
cents for each time following. Last
week Mr.. Foy put in bid for the
work at the rate paid the Ryan Press
and the commissioners decided there
was no necessity for a change.
On his new rates Foy claims the
town may save $500 year. The let
ter was ordered by the mayor re-
ferred to Commissioner Henry T.
Lefferts, who was not present at the
meeting. The members of the board
will attend the meeting called by the
State Water Supply Commission to
be held in the Paterson city hall on
August 7. The Nutley, officials are
inclined to favor the Wanaque river
proposition for the State conserva-
ton of water.

Kearny Saloon-keeper Told
to Discontinue Business

Notice to discontinue business was
served today on John Swithenby ST.,
a Kearny saloon keeper, by Detective
Sergeant Walter Oliver, of Kearny.
This action, it is believed follows the
disposition of the case against Swith-
enby, who was charged by Clifton H..
Presbrey, of the Law and Order
League, with selling liquor without a
license. Swithenby was found guilty
of the charge last night by Police Re-
corder Leonard A. WINNER in the
Kearny Police Court.
The magistrate, in rendering his de-
cision, declared the evidence pro-
duced did not show an intentional or
fragrant violation of the law, and
sentence against the defendant is
suspended" Swithenby some months
ago was charged with violating the
bishops law. The Kearny Council
exonerated him. When the saloon
keeper applied for a renewal of
license, the Law and Order League,
prosecutors in the initial case, OBJ
jected. The license, however, was
granted. The league carried the case
to court and was upheld in it's con-
tention against the license grant and
the Illegal selling.

POLL TAX EXEMPT
LAW EXPLAINED
Kearny Assessors Are Informed
of Manner of Collection by
County Body.

In letter received today by MEM
bers of the Kearny Board of Asses
sors from Joseph p. Mclean, secre-
tary of the Hudson County Board OF
Taxation, the poll tax question Is
thoroughly explained. For many
years the tax has not been collected
in the West Hudson towns. The let
ter received today reads In part as
follows;
"A poll tax of one dollar shall be
assessed upon every male inhabitant
of this State Of the age of twenty
one years and upwards, except pau
pers, idiots and insane persons, sub
ject, however, to- the exemptions
hereinafter provided.
"All persons enrolled as active
mem bers of the fire department or
of any organized volunteer fire de-
partment of any taxing district or
fire district under the control of any
township committee, common council
or other authorized public body; all
exempt f1remen of any taxing dis
trict; all honorably discharged SOL
diers and sailors who have served in
the army or navy of the United
States during any war or rebellion,
and all members of the national
guard during their term of service,
shall be exempt on proper claim
made therefor from poll taxes.
This tax should be impartially lew
led upon all male inhabitants of
your taxing district as prescribed in
the act. Heretofore, where levied,
it has been the custom to assess only
property owners who are compelled
to pay along with their property
tax. This discrimination in favor of
those who pay no tax and against
the heavily burdened taxpayer is so
fragrant that it's only correction lies
in a strict compliance with the law"

PROBING POLICE
DEPARTMENT TO
SILENCE RUMOR
South Orange Village Officials
Have Confidence in Integ-
rity of Force.

To silence rumors rejecting upon
the integrity of the South Orange
Village police department, which in
eiudes sixteen men, the police com
mittee of the Village board of trus-
tees is conducting a rigid investl-
cation, 1t was learned today. While
Trustee Edward A. Marks. chairman
of the committee, made no secret. of
his belief that the gossip which in
wolves Marshal Thomas Mcguire and
his associates Is of the flimsiest char
acter, his colleagues, Trustees Harry
j. Schnell and Dudley w. Figgis, are
determined to sift the small talk.
Several meetings have been held
and the police have been Intercepted.
Chairman Marks was emphatic In his
statement that there is no founda-
ton for the references to the men
involved, whose names are not made
a part of the police record up to
date.
Marshal Mcguire would not talk
about the matter today, but others
familiar with the rumors say. that
jealousy among the little body of men
in the uniformed rank over alleged
promotions at the expense OF the dis
gruntled ones is the prime factor in
the allegations. To offer every OPP
portunity for those, who claim to
know, to state their facts, the police
committee Will again sit tonight and
on other evenings to thrash out the
unpleasantness. The report, signed by
the trustees on the police committee
to fhe Board of Trustees, is as fol-
lows.
1.-THE police committee desires to
report that on account of rumors
more or less prevalent to the erect
that our police department has not
been all 1t should be, 1t is conducting
an inquiry, the purpose OF which Is
to discover by a searching investi-
CATION what, If any, foundation there
may be for this gossip.
Besides examining the members OF
the police department. the commits
tee will afford any citizen of the VII
lage an opportunity to tell under
oath any facts pertinent to the In
quiry, in the hope that there may be
no reason for any such rumors or
gossip hereafter, certainly as apply
ing to anything that may have oc-
Cured in the past.
Notwithstanding the fact that con-
siderable time is being given to the
inquiry it will take several weeks, to
complete 1t, and 1t is the intention
of the committee to present at later
meeting OF this board report OF Its
findings, together with such recom-
mendations as in their judgment may
be necessary"

Try to Interest Belleyille
in Commission Government

Another effort will be made by the
Citizens League of Belleville to In
terest the citizens in commission gov
eminent. The executive committee or
the league has issued a call for a
meeting on Friday night at which the
members will be asked to approve a
resolution adopted by the committee
recommending that steps be taken to
submit the adoption of the new form
of government to the people.
The members of the committee do
not hesitate to assert that the reso-
luton will be unanimously Endorsed.
Their optimism is attributed to the
fact that the league was established
a little more than a year ago in an
effort to obtain a -partisanship.
business-like administration in local
affairs. The league members say
that twenty-five petitions will be
circulated throughout the town after
the meeting on Friday night
The league arranged for a meeting
several weeks ago, at which ii was
proposed to have several speakers
from commission governed cities and
towns. The plans fell through when
the speakers invited declined owing
to other engagements.

WORK ALL NIGHT
TO HALT INVASION
OF ARMY WORMS
North Arlington Farmers Dig
Trenches and Use Gasoline
to Kill Pest.

The army worm has made its APP
pearanee in North Arlington. Farm
ers in the Bergen county borough are
very much worried over the discovery
of the pest. On at least two farms
in the borough a score Of men labored
all last night in an effort to prevent
any inroad being made by the unwel-
come visitors.
According to the troubled farmers
the worm is much in evidence in the
new Catholic cemetery in North
Arlington. John c. Millar, who owns
farm directly opposite the ceme-
terry on Kearny avenue, declares the
worms CROSSED Kearny avenue from
the cemetery "by the million last
night"
Millar, before going to market, dug
burrows at the Kearny avenue
edge OF the farm When he re-
turned he poured quantity of gas
oline into the burrows and started
fire, with the result that thou
sands of the worms were destroyed.
Mayor William Brandenburgh, jr.,
who owns a large farm near that of
Millar's, is using every effort to keep
the worms from invading his farm.
He put several of his farm hands to
work and citizens of the borough,
headed by Chief of Police Frederick
Riepe, also took a hand in the ex-
termination.
Borough Collector Richard Smith,
Peter Rittweiger and Elmer Kline
spent the greater part of the night
killing the worms. The fight is be-
ing kept up today and every effort
will be made to destroy whatever
worms are now in the cemetery, as
the work of identifying the place has
only recently been completed.
Property owners in North Arlington
and in Arlington are considerably
worried for fear the worms will in
wade their gardens and lawns. In
the Arlington section especially there
are many handsome lawns that have
been put in their present shape only
after the hardest kind Of work.
Many residents of the two places
are following out the advice given In
yesterdays Evening Star regarding
spraying of the lawns with poisonous
bait.
A steam roller was procured from
the Public Service Corporation at
noon today and the machine was
used to crush the worms as they at
tempt to cross the roadway
The local situation in regard to the
army worm has not changed ma
terially since yesterday. In many
places throughout the city people are
today applying the remedy suggested
by the shade tree commissioners
for stamping out this pest. which is
doing a nationwide harm to grass
and other green vegetation other
than trees This remedy consists of
a solution of an ounce of arsenate
of lead in a gallon Of water and
spraying grass and plants with it.
Carl Bannwart, secretary of the COM
mission, reiterates his caution that
great care be taken that none of the
plants sprayed be taken to the table,
as arsenate of lead is one of the
deadliest poisons, not only to insects,
but to human beings, too.
