Senator William e. Ramsay this
morning notified city officials that
representatives of the Public Service
Corporation were at hand and there
would be an immediate hearing upon
senate bill No. 232. This caused a
stir among city officials here at
noon today. There came quick
muster of forces and Mayor Ferd
Garretson and members of the Board
of Aldermen left for Trenton at once.
They assembled at Smith and State
streets at 1886 o'clock, were con-
veyed to Metuchen in ore of the
mayors automobiles and boarded the
1:05 o'clock train for Trenton. City
Attorney Andrew Wight, who was at
New Brunswick at the time, boarded
the earliest train possible for the
capital.
Senate bill No. 232 Is one of the
measures which officials here and
elsewhere believe will be serious
detriment to communities should 1t
become a law. 1t would give the
Board of Public Utility Commission
ers almost unlimited power over
utilities In all communities through
out the state except cities of the first
The commission would there
by take charge Of water works, mu-
nicipal light plants ana the like. 1t
Is one of the several utility aciS~to
which the Township of Woodbridge
is also opposed, and, according to this
belief Of Woodbridge township Gth.
cials, 1t was introduced at the requ.
of Public Service interests. Officials
here declare this was proven today
when Senator Ramsay announced the
presence of Public Service represent
atives at Trenton.
It became evident yesterday, ac-
cording to city officials, that Senator
Read had attempted to trick the city.
This was brought to light soon after
the Legislature had started work yes
terday morning. Senate bill No.
232 was called for action and as indi-
cations were that it was to be finally
passed without opportunity being
given the city for a hearing Senator
Ramsay hurried out to notify City
Attorney Andrew j. Wight. Later
he ascertained that there would be
no action on the bill yesterday. Much
to his surprise there came evidence
shortly before noon today that the
bill was to be given hearing before
the judiciary committee, probably
early this afternoon. He was quick
to so notify officials here. AS the
city attorney was in New Brunswick
ON business, the message was
brought to his father. James S.
Wight. He lost no time in getting
into communication with the city at
torney, Alderman William C. Wilson
and as many others as possible. Mr..
Wilson arranged with Mayor Garrett
son for speedy trip to Trenton and
notified the other aldermen to be on
hand.
There is no evidence as yet that
Senator Read kept his word and noti-
fed City Attorney Wight regarding
the time for hearing on the bill.
According to DR.. Ramsay's message,
there were indications that there
would be hearing on the bill some
time about noon. 1t stated that the
committee was ready to take up the
bill right away" This was contrary
to the promise made to Mr.. Wight
by Chairman Read of the judiciary
committee Monday afternoon, accord
ing to Mr.. Wights z atements. The
city attorney was ip med that the
city officials would oe given oppor-
tunity to voice their opposition.

RUSH
To HEARING ON
UTILITY BILL
Measure Passes in Senate
Without City Getting Hear
ing-AmendmentS May Kill
Bill in the Assembly.

Word was received from Trenton
at 2:3O o'clock this afternoon to the
effect that senate bill Ne. 232 had
passed in the senate by vote of
eleven to ten, with an amendment TO
include cities of the first class as well
as others. The impression now is
that this amendment will serve to
kill the bill in the assembly.
Representatives of the city OF
Perth Amboy were not heard, as it
had been promised they would be.
The senators were considering the
bill when the Perth Amboy delega-
ton arrived at Trenton.

No gilded ballroom grac- ing the mansion of a duchess of so- ciety, though ornate with all the con- captions of a mind with whims un- bounded by the limits of monetary consideration could furnish a more delightful setting for enjoying all the alluring wiles of the modern Terpsi- chore than this beautiful park. bit of garden spot set in the dreary stretch of Arizona landscape
 This charming event. dedicated to the goddess of outdoor enjoyment and the charms Of Nature unprofaned by the hand of man. will be held under the auspices of such a very practical and unromantic organization as the Volunteer Warren Fire Department, which is even seeking financial inn bursement at the hands of the artistic performers Of the light fantastic" steps Lest the eager participants become languid or thirsty during the evenings activities, the members of the Ladies Aid of Warren have agreed 1o furnish refreshing delicacies of ice cream and cake. which may be partak. en of at intervals between the dances.

HORROR OF LEPROSY
 IS MUCH OVERRATED
 SAYS COAST DOCTOR
Douglas w. Montgomery, of San Francisco, Says That Horror
 Felt for Disease Is Not JuSti-
 fled By Facts.

SAN FRANCISCO. June 25.-Hor- or of leprosy is an inheritance from the middle ages and is not justified by the facts, said Dr. Douglas w. Montgomery of San Francisco, in a paper presented this morning before the Sixty-Sixth Annual Session of the American Medical Association. The repulsive appearance of leprosy and the fear of it's extreme contagion due to misunderstanding of the nature Of leprosy as mentioned in the Bible have created a belief in the public mind that leprosy is extremely con. tagious. This belief says Dr. Mont gomery, is not founded on fact Lep- rosy is very slightly contagious and is a slowly progressive disease, much less dangerous to the community or to the individual than smallpox, tuber- culosis and many other diseases.
 The growing economic and industri- al importance of public health work was emphasized by several speakers.
 Sickness insurance was advocated by Dr. B. S. Warren of the United States Health Service, as a means of overcoming the handicap of poverty among wage earners. pr. Warren showed that disease is more prevalent among low paid workers than among better paid and that fully one-half of the wage-earnlng families of the Unit ed States do not have an income su- mcient to maintain healthy standard of living. A governmental system of sickness insurance for working peo- pie would increase their economic in- dependence as well as their physical condition, he said.

MONTESSORI TO HAVE
 SPECIAL SCHOOL FOR
 CHILD WELFARE WORK
Training Course Under Patron age of President Wilson's Daughter Will Be Started on Grounds of Exposition.

SAN FRANCISCO, June =5.-Under the patronage of Miss Margaret Wilson daughter of President Woodrow Will son, Dr. Maria Montessori, the noted Italian educator, wil conduct an inter. nation Montessori training course at the Panama.Pacihc International Ex- position during August, September. October and November With Miss Wilson on the committee in charge of the course are David Starr Jordan. president of the National Education Association, which meets in Oakland in August, and P. F. Claxton, United States Commissioner of Education.
 The special course will be for the benefit Of teachers, parents and others interested in child welfare. and in con- nection with it will be held a number of demonstration schools in which teachers will do practice work. Noted educators from all parts of the United States and from abroad have been asked 10 conduct a thorough study and test of Dr. Montessoris method of child training during this course.
 The exposition authorities asked Dr. Montessori to conduct her inter- national training course on the expo sition grounds because of the oppor- tunity it will afford to give an inter- national test of this new and unique method of developing individual ini- tiative in very young children. An essential part of the plan consists in the appointment of an international committee which will careful and ex- tended study to the demonstration classes and report at the close of the exposition concerning the actual prog ress made and the real contribution that the Montessori principles have made to educational advancement
 The arrangements for the course are in the hands of Wallace Hatch of Berkeley Caif, who was formerly acting chief of the department of education of the exposition.

ARIZONA FAV0RITE AGAIN IN CONTEST
 FOR FARM HONORS
Success in Capturing First Prize Last Year for Soil Products
 May Be Repeated at Denver

DENVER, June 25!-The faci that Arizona captured the first prize a. mone the IA states entering competi- tion at the International Soil-Products Exposition held in conjunction with the International Dry-Farming Con- gress at Wichita last year, lends es. pecial interest to Arizona plans fo- Denver this year
 The distance this year to Denver is less and the opportunity greater than even at Wichita.
 The Denver Congress and Exposi- tion have still greater scope and pros poets than any sessions in the history of the organization.
 The dates of the Denver Congress are October 4-7, and those of the EX- position September 26 to October 10.
 Every single state west of the Mis- sssippi River will be in the great h. terstate and International Building at Denver. Even Wisconsin will make an exhibit. Missouri, Arkansas and Louisiana will be there The Arizona contingent remembers very we'll the showing made by Louisiana through it's Immigration Bureau at Wichita last year,
 ] Most of the states made direct ap- ipropriations through their legislatures This is true of Kansas, Oklahoma, Ne. braska, Wyoming and several other states Others like the Dakotas, Mon. tana Louisiana, Missouri, Utah and Texas made indirect appropriations through the medium of some existing agency in state advertising.
 Arizona efforts thus far are, as last year, confined to the great activity and interest of Governor Hunt. the experiment station through the lead ership of Director Forbes, and A. M McOmie and the commercial bodies of Phoenix, Tucson and Flagstaff.
 This will probably be greatly sup plemented by further commercial or ganization activity, and also by means of the new state law which permits county supervisors to make appropri ations for displays outside Of the state
 The splendid winnings of Arizona last year at Wichita, when not only the beautiful silver trophy offered by the Chicago Association of Commerce as first state premium, was takeT home by A. Nj. McOmie in charge o the exhibit, but a large amount O other awards, including considerable cash, gave the Arizonans great conf dence in their Marathon ability in out side eXpostions The reward of tn, chase is as ample this year and mor' SO, which lends great interest to tn, work now being done in the state a long this line

SWIMMING POOL AT
 " TO BE GREATLY
 IMPROVED SHORTLY
Officials Decide to Tap Main Di- rect and Change Water Every Three Days and Also in Much Shorter Time.

The difference in attendance at the Y. M. C. A., so far during the sum. mer months, has necessitated decided action in the matter of improving the swimming tank During the past few days the officials of the organization have decided to put in a large sized water pipe direct from the main
 This action will enable the pool to be filled in several hours. where, here tofore, it has taken a matter of three days to fll the tank. Another benefit to be derived is the fact that the water in the tank will be changed about every three days. Under the present system 1t is usually ten days between changes of water.
 The officials have kept accurate count of the attendance at the Y, particularly those who have ayailed themselves of the bathing privileges, It has shown that the attendance has increased about four times For the same period last summer the attend ance was 2l4 and this year it has been counted at BPS.
 These figures give some idea of the increase m public esteem which the Association is held The bathing privileges are attracting their hun dreds to the institution and those who come for this feature always get something else before they leave the building that will bring them back.
