FIELDER WILL NOT
DISTURB PLAN FOR
BIG TRUNK SEWER
Declines New York's Invitation
to Change Passaic Vail
ley FIunne.


TRENTON, July IA. = Governor
Fielder today sent letter to Corpor-
alton Counsel Frank l.. Polk, of the
city of New York declining Mr..
Folks suggestion that Governor
Fielder and Governor Glynn have a
conference. with a view to changing
New Jerseys plan of constructing
a trunk sewer to empty sewage from
the Passaic river into New York bay.
Mr.. Polk writes that the Jersey
plan means the pollution Of waters
of New York harbor to the detriment
of New York city. Governor Fielder,
in his reply, says the Jersey plans
are a decided improvement over ex-
isting conditions and as they have
the approval of the New Jersey Leg
islature and the States highest court,
he does not feel disposed to interfere
to change them.
Governor Fielder says that the
present plans include the treatment
of the sewage on the Newark
meadaws before its discharge into
New York, bay and therefore he
thinks the effluent. when so dis
charged, will be entirely unobjection-
able He suggests that If the same
plan were to be adopted by New York
for the sewage of Greater New York
city the INJURY from sewage disposal
in New York bay would be prac-
tically none.

dope" DEALERS
REPORTED BUSY
IN NEW JERSEY
Said to Have Been Driven Out
of New York Because of
New Law.

There are fewer drug victims in
Newark, perhaps, in. proportion to
the population, than in any city in
the country"
The foregoing statement was made
today by Police Chief Long. He was
prompted to discuss the illegal sale
of drugs as the result of a statement
made yesterday by DR.. Charles d.
Bolduan, chief medical adviser of the
Department of Health. of New York,
who declared that since the enact
ment at Albany of the Boyian anti
drug act, the drug industry has
moved to New Jersey. DR.. Bolduan's
statement was issued under the cap
ton, Does New Jersey Welcome Its
New Industry
To bear out his statement that the
drug industry has moved to New
Jersey, DIR. Bolduan produced copy
of a letter written by a doctor, for
merly of New York, but who is said
to have moved to Red Bank, N. j., in
order to conduct his business out
side of the jurisdiction of the Boylan
act The letter. which was written
to a drug user in Savannah, Ca, in
part, reads:
Your order received and will state
that under the new law, which went
into effect July 1, il will be impos-
New York State. have arranged
to have your prescriptions filled at
Red Bank, N. j. Kindly send all
future orders there"
The name of the writer was with
held by Dr. Bolduan.
Police Chief Longs statement con-
corning the drug conditions in New
ark is based on reports received from
his lieutenants who recently con-
Quoted a crusade against cocaine and
other drug users and sellers in and
about Newark.
"Of course, 1 can't speak for the en-
tire State" Chief Long said; but |
can speak with good authority for
Newark. DR.. Bolduan may be right
when he says the drug traffic has
moved to New Jersey. He can't say
any part of it has moved to New
Jersey. We have ways of finding out
such things readily. We'd know
pretty quickly If any of them had
come to Newark, and as yet we
hadn't any such report. l think DR..
Boulduan will say, if he knows the
situation thoroughly that Newark
hasn't any of that trade. We won't
stand for it, the chief concluded.
Chief Longs statements were borne
out by representative of local whole
sale drug houses. As yet, 1t was
agreed, none of the dope doctors"
had put in an appearance in New
ark
William o. Kuebler. of the firm of
Roeber & Kuebler wholesale drug
gists, pointed out the likelihood of
dope doctors" coming to New Jer-
sey.
"Of course they'll come to New
Jersey 70 try to do business" he
said. But the wholesale druggists
are watched closely in this State. The
books of every wholesale drug con-
Germ in New Jersey are open to the
State authorities. We can only sell

1.-THE authorities are pulling the
strings tighter in , New York" he
said. But the dope sellers will
find some way of evading the law"
he declared They always do" Mr..
