Twelve Zeppelin Raids

NEW YORK. Jan. 12.-Twelve at

large fleets of aeroplanes, and three
of the German air craft were de-
stroyed or captured. according to DIR.

cal corps, who arrived today on the
American liner Philadelphia.
THE real reason why Zeppelins

the British have established an elab-
crate and efficient defense against
the German air raiders During the
month of December there were
twelve separate attempts by Yep
pelins to reach London. From two
to four Zeppelins participated in each
attempt During the month of No
vember there were several other at

OLD ASYLUM LAND
To Be SITE FOR
A HIGH SCHOOL
Committee Decides to Purchase
for $4,000, but Members
Are Not Unanimous.
DR.. POLAND FIRM FOR
THE SELECTION MADE
Judge Frederic Johnson and
Miss Winser Object to Noise
of Trolley Cars.

Authority to purchase the old asy-
lum grounds in South Orange avenue
for n site for the proposed new West
Side High School was granted by the
Board of Education late yesterday.
The board also took up the question
of selling the Newark state Normal
School in Bellevlle avenue to the
State. No definite action was taken.
The board also discussed the school
fire insurance question and the erec-
tion of fire escapes on the Roseville
Avenue School. All of these matters
We're topics at committee sessions.
The asylum grounds site is 300x400
feet and the price will be 500, 600. Judge
Frederic l.. Johnson, president of tho
Board of Education, and Miss Bea-
trice Winser voted against the pur-
chase. An effort has been made to
have the Board of Education buy a
site in Thirteenth avenue.
The asylum site. to be bought from
the Berry Realty Company. of which
James A. Berry is president, was rec
commended to the committee at pre-
Vious meeting by DR.. Addison b. Po-
land, city superintendent of schools,
as the most satisfactory of the sites
inspected
At that time the real estate firm
offered to sell the committee Il plot
200x300 feet at almost the same sum.
Later an additional offer was made
increasing the depth to $50 feet. The
whole matter was then referred back
to DR.. Poland for further investiga-
tion. Several of the board members,
particularly Miss Winser, were op-
posed to the South Orange avenue
sta. elthough it had the Endorsement
of the Vailsburg improvement Asso-
citation and a large number of citi-
zens living in that section of the city.
DIR. Poland Stands Firm.
At the meeting yesterday afternoon
DR.. Poland informed the committee
that he considered the South Orange
avenue site satisfactory and recon
mended erecting the new high school
there. He said he had been unable
to find any objections to the close
proximity of Fairmount Cemetery To
the site on which the new high school
will be erected, that the building
could be set back considerable dis
tance TO eliminate all possible annoy
ance from the street traffic and that
other sites visited were not salts

Miss Winser at this point, declared
she could not understand why the
committee was acting in such a hasty
manner This site is not satisfac-
tory, owing to the noise created by
the trolleys," said Miss Winser. "and
| move that the matter be laid over
for further investigation. -"
Speaking on the motion, Rynier V.

deciding the matter. "The site has

McCarter Resents Attack
on Newark Fete.

Tie good ship" Traffic Club held
q big passenger list at. the Washing
ton restaurant last night Aboard
were the members of the organiza-
ton and it's guests. II was the occa-
sion of the annual dinner of the
Traffic Club When the 200 or more
diners entered the restaurant they
found themselves in a fully equipped
ship.
Signal flags were strung from the
chandeliers. wireless apparatus kept
cracking and splitting and pseudo
messages were received. A big ships
bell changed as the hour for the feast
arrived. The walters became mess
boys, garbed in white duck and
boarding caps" and were ranged in
true sailor fashion before the long
guest table. Members of the dinner
committee appeared in the uniform
of petty officers. The quartet of en-
tertainers were blueiackets.
President Arthur Hamilton became
skipper of the ship and took his place
on the bridge. Directly in front of
him stood a compass, ships chronom-
eter and at either side of the bridge,
or speakers dais. there arose a
steamships ventilators.
From the time J. S. Walton, of the
dinner committee. uniformed as a
ships officer, megaphoned, 'All

Howard McSherry, attorney for the
Public Service Railway Company,
who was the last speaker, humorously
lambasted Newark and its people,
there was not a dull moment. Even
the spirit of Robert Treat, the city's
founder, in the person of Clifford
StorS, called to the scene amid rolling
thunder and flashes of lightning, had
something to say.
But the most interest was aroused
by Uzal Fl. McCarter, chairman of the
executive and finance committee of
the Committee of One Hundred, who
charged that the Newark Evening
News had traduced the members of
the committee and was continuing to
do SO.

MAYOR WOULD
Be CONS|DERATE
OF DEAR PEOPLE
To Relieve Them of Voting OH
"Ripper" Bill Should They
Not Get Wise"

Avoidance of the hazardous propo-
sition of having the people vote upon
the proposed new charter in its orig
lnal and completed form, is the big
object the city administration hopes
to achieve by having the series of
ripper" bills passed at the present
session of the Legislature.
The real end to be gained by hav-
ing tn chareter passed in sections has
not occurred to many outside ad-
ministration circles, However. the
situation is simply that the voters
would have practically nothing to
say about changes in Newark's form
of government excepting the reduc-
tion in the size of the Common Coun-
Gil.
The assumptio mis-, Of course, that
referendum clauses need not be at
tached to other than the council
manic measure. This is the belief OF
those favoring the remodeling OF the
municipal government along the lines
advocated by Mayor Thomas l.. Ray
mond.
That the method to be pursued does
not indicate a lack of trustfulness in
the electorate is stoutly maintained
by administration leaders. They de-
clare they would not fear to submit
all the various propositions to the
people, but they complain, this means
a considerable delay and there is q
crying and immediate need for tho
rebuilding of certain branches OF the
city government.
If the administration persists in
having the charter passed section by
section minus referendum clauses, a
fight is expected to develo at Tren-
ton. The thoroughness of the Dali
rymple influence over the Legislature
is generally recognized, together with
the harmony existing between Dali
