REBUKES CRITICS
OF TOWN COUNCIL
Replies to Complaint About
Tests to Determine Source
of Water Supply.

Resenting a criticism of the West
Orange Town Council at meeting
of that body last night for spending
$1,000 on the property of Councilman
Carl Fentzlaff in tests to secure a
water supply for the town the latter
called critics of the town pests and
fools. He accused the dissatisfied
residents of not being honest in their
criticisms and said the town would
be well rid of them.
The criticism as regards the tests
for the water supply was made by
Captain Herbert Barry. He said the
council was acting illegally in paying
for the work. He questioned the le-
gality of the contract for the work,
as Mr. Fentzlaff, he said, can be con-
sidered interested in the agreement
inasmuch as he owns the property
where the wells had been driven to
determine If there is sufficient water
to supply the town.

DESPITE PROTESTS

Despite protests from a delegation
of property owners and other resi-
dents headed by Judge Daniel A.
Dugan, the Orange commissioners
voted unanimously yesterday to
grant a transfer of the saloon license
of Alfonso Monica, 45 to III Lincoln
avenue. Judge Dugan and a number
of women urged the commissioners
not 70 grant the transfer. Ralph E.
Giordano represented the applicant
Petitions for and against the trans
fer, with several people signing both
communications, were presented.
Commissioner William a. Calhoun
announced that he had investigated
the situation, found the applicant was
a responsible person with good rec
ord as a saloonkeeper He said he
felt it would be a hardship to place
the saloon in the new location if it
were fact that no saloons We're at
present located in the new neighbor-
hood, but as there were places in the
immediate vicinity he would favor
the transfer. II was unanimously
granted.
The one ripple of excitement during
the discussion was furnished by
Michael Finefan, one of the pro-
testers, who reported Attorney Gior-
dano as making the remark to a
neighbor that "he had four votes of
the commission and did not care about
the fifth" Mr.. GiordanO promptly
denied making the statement and re-
torted that Mr.. Fineran secured sig
natures opposing the change by
pretending he was getting signers for
the new place. This. too, was en-
phatically denied by Mr. Fineran.
