His Eye on Congress-"
He Declares.

Ceed Him.

County Clerk Bernard NJ. Cannon
would say but little concerning the
report that Charles A. Mccormick
treasurer of Johnson & Johnson, of
New Brunswick, was trying to defeat
him, when seen at his home this
morning. At first the genial county
official said he had nothing to say.
considering that the least said was
the easiest mended, when he was
asked if he had read the article in
the NEWS yesterday relative to a
controversy between him and Mr..
Mccormick at a Board of Trade ban
quet in New Brunswick. Mr.. Cannon
stated he had read the article in
question, but he did not comment
upon it.
When asked if he thought that
Mr.. Mccormick desired to succeed
him as county clerk, he replied: "I
am absolutely satisfied in my mind
that Mr.. Mccormick entertains no
such thought, as l don't believe the
office of county clerk appeals to him.
either from financial or standpoint
of honor"
How about congress?" Mr.. Gan
non was asked. He replied, Il have
heard it said that Mr.. Mccormick
had his eye on congress, but OF
course l don't know whether the re-
port be true or not. 1t would be a
natural ambition, as the position is
surely one of great honor" Then
the county clerk was asked: How
about succeeding you as leader OF
the Democracy" Mr. Cannon
promptly replied, Il am not the lead

ally recognized that you are the

at length, "If such is the case | am

recognize that the position of county

MUST GRAF 7 SKIN
ON BURNEDMAN
Explosion at Plant Fatal to
Roosevelt Worker Now in
Elizabeth Hospital.
HOT METAL FELL ON HIM

With the skin burned off large
areas of his arms, legs and shoulders,
Carl Bunkowsky, thirty-three years
old, of Roosevelt, is in critical con-
dition at the Elizabeth General
Hospital. Only the grating OF skin,
it is said, will now save the man s
life. Bunkowsky was burned by hot
Stag at the United States Metal Re-
fining Company's plant while tending
one of the furnaces, shortly before
noon yesterday.
Bunkowsky, it Is declared, was in
the act of dumping hot Stag into a
cooler of water when an explosion,
that was heard for some distance
around, occurred The torrid pro-
ljectiles shot all over the mans body
as the steaming metal spluttered
from the water
Bunkowsky's limbs were partially
covered with bits of the hot metal,
and being overcome, fell to the
ground. He was assisted to his feet
by fellow employees, and the plant
physician summoned. The doctor
ordered his immediate removal to
the hospital, where physicians are
considering calling volunteers to
give their skin in an effort to save
the mans life, it is said. Up until
a late hour this morning the institu-
tion had not been able to get in com
munication with the members of the
mans family, but are trying to do so
through the police of Roosevelt.

Body Was Found Yesterday in
Raritan Bay Off Sea
Breeze, TottenvIIe.
WAS MISSING SINCE EASTER
Boarded in This City With Mrs.
HouSer; Had No
Relatives Here.

The body found off Sea Breeze. Tot.
tenville, by the crew of the tug Teivus
about III O'Clock yesterday morning.
was identified this morning by Mrs.
George Houser, of l03 Fayette street, as
James Farrell, a caulker, one of her
former boarders. The man had been
missing from his boarding place since
Easter Sunday, April -, when, it is be-
heved, during a fit he fell into the
Staten Island sound and was drowned,
Mrs. Houser did not notify the police
or try to find her missing boarder dur
ing his whole absence because she
thought he had again been locked up
for drinking. Three times in recent
months he was arrested for that cause,
and twice through Mrs. Houser and her
kin he was released.
The man had been affected by fits
more especially during the two weeks
previous to April -, and his talk and
actions were erratic at times. Easter
Sunday morning he fell down a fight of
stairs in the boarding house and re-
ceived a severe cash over and under his
right eye. After eating breakfast he
left the house and was not again seen
by the boarding mistress alive. The
fall, it is conjeetured may have pre-
cipitated a fit, and alteration of the
brain may have led him to walk off
a dock.
The man was employed as caulker at
the Raritan Dry Docks Company and
was not seen at that place since Satur-
day, April II. However, it is thought,
he may have returned to that place dur
ing the day or at night, and walked off
one of the docks during one of his men
tai attakcs.
The man had lived in this city for
some time and boarded with Mrs.
Houser for more than q year. He is
said to have brother in New York.
The address found in one of his poek-
cts, which read, ~. Killem, $3.50 Third
avenue, New York" " proved to be that
of his brother in-law. Coroner Flynn
dispatched telegram to that address
soon after the body was found, and Mrs.
Killem communicated the address Of her
brothers. former boarding place here.
Farrell was unmarried and is said to
have no relatives here and to have been
born in Ireland. He was about fifty
years old. sasas

DIR. SCHMUCkER
FOR EUCEN|CS
Should Encourage Glowing
Health, He Said, Before
Teachers Association.
SIMPSON CHURCH FILLED

with an edifying address by DR.. S.
Z. Schmucker at the Simpson NJ, e.
church yesterday afternoon, the SER
les OF lectures arranged by the Perth
Amboy Teachers Association came to
close. DR.. Schmucker, who is pro
fessor of biology at the Westchester
state Normal School at Westchester.
Pa, delivered lecture on the topic
OF Race Improvement" and 1t was
handled in such an admirable man
ner as to hold the attention of his
hearers to each word from the begin
ming to the conclusion of the ad-
dress.
The talk was interesting in the
extreme and considered to be one of
the most helpful of the course of lee
lures, some astounding phases on the
subject being emphasized by DR..
Schmucker, who said he considered
the development of the race to be
worthy of the greatest consideration
of the nation, and especially of the
teachers who have in charge the
training of the future citizens of the
country.
THE work of the sociologists, ="
said Dr.. Schmucker, "in improving
the conditions in regard to agricul-
ture, cattle breeding, clothing and
other subjects with which they are
concerned is of vast Importance to
the present generation, but friends,
what of the future? Who does not
think of the development of a genera
tion of hearty robust young men and
women to be of an infinitely greater
importance? There Is only one way
TO accomplish this, friends, and that
IS by mating the stock we'll. An
eminent Chicago clergyman tried to
solve the problem by declaring that
no pair in his parish should be unit
ed by him in marriage unless they
presented certificates from their fam
lily physicians, stating that they were
physically At TO marry 1t sounds
right, friends, and the Bishops aim
was undoubtedly good. He did right
In that he brought attention to the
necessity of eugenic improvement but
1t seems impossible to ever accom-
plish this by legislation.
ITO do it we must stem the tide of
the slow reduction In birth, rates and
especially in those sections of the
country We depend upon for finest
ppcSil'lthb vi Lilt
We should encourage glowing health
health which can't help but be at
tractiye. and to do this we must fos-
ter everything that throws our boys
and girls together in clear, hearty,
frank companionship in the open.
Encourage clean living and healthful
habits and | think we shall solve the
problem. | am not opposed to dane
ing, friends, and have had both of my
children taught to dance, presumably
because l can't dance myself. Every
one who sees me knows why (laugh-
teri. But friends, if were to choose
my sons companion for life | would
far, far, rather have her to be the
companion of the fields, of the tennis
court, and the out door life than the
companion of the ballroom"
DR.. Schmucker said that an as
founding trend against alcoholism is
sweeping over the country and be-
lieves that the elimination of the liq-
uor traffic will be a great factor in
the improvement of the race.

CLOSE A. 8. & R.
PLANT IN MEXICO
Complete Cessation of Busi-
ness Until All HOstiIities
Are Over There.
ORDER MEN OUT COUNTRY

Present war conditions in Mexico
have brought about a complete ces-
sation of business at American
Smelling and Refining Company and
other plants, with the result that the
local works of the company are not
running anywhere near their capac-
ity. This condition of affairs has ex-
listed to some extent throughout the
past six months, it was stated at the
local plant today. But one plant of
the A. S. & r. concern in Mexico had
been operating, that for only six
days in a month at times. The prin-
cipal obstacle was the ripping up of
railroad tracks, which prevented the
receipt Of coke or fuel. AS a result
there is no bullion being shipped
from Mexico to the factory here
That available is shipped from the
West, and owing to the small sup
ply the work is slack.
From Aguascalientes, Mexico,
comes the following report: THE
local and all other plants in Mexico
were closed down the week of April
1926 and American workmen were
ordered to leave the country. The
A. S. & r. Company has decided 70
suspend all operations in Mexico
until hostilities there are ended. The
concern had greater number of
workmen on it's properties iP Mexico
than any other American corpora
ton. When working full, it had
close to $4,000 there. Since the
Madero revolt, however, there have
been few times when plants could
be worked close to full capacity. De-
spite handicaps the company has
been able to do some work. Some
Of it's largest holdings were in terri
tory in which there was heavy fight
ing between federals and rebels un-
der Villa. The latter on taking
charge had Immediately allowed re-
sumption of work, but there have
been reports that he exacted heavy
royalties for permitting operation.
With the exception of unskilled
hands, majority of the employees
we're Americans. Hundreds of these
have quit the country during the
past few years and April 20 began
an exodus of remaining Americans,
which has diminished the total num-
Der considerably. This, particularly
from plants at Chihuahua for Ell
Paso. Latest reports are that about
thirty some Americans, mostly smelt-
er employees, tried to reach Mexico
City from Aguascalientes to go to
Vera Cruz. They were stopped at
Encarnacion, taken back to Aguas
and held prisoners at the smelling
plant, press statements declaring
they were finally released under
heavy ransom paid in bullion"
Regarding the United States
Smelling & Refining Company's op-
erations at Hidalgo, Mexico, orders
have been given to the Mexican man
agement there to use it's own iudg-
ment In regard to closing operations.

IMPROVEMENT IN
MILK SOLD HERE

A recent test made by Health
Officer Willsey has shown the stand
ard of milk delivered in this city to
be greatly Improved over that of
previous tests. Lower temperatures
of the milk account for a better
effect on the bacteria and the health
officials are much pleased with the
change. Another promising condi-
tion is the willingness of some of the
dealers to improve their delivery
facilities. Four new milk houses
have just been completed and should
materially assist in the sanitary
handling of milk In this city.
