Want Wagons Covered

The Woman'S Club have requested
that the garbage collector cover his
wagon and so prevent the dirt, dust
and odor from being whisked about
by the wind as the wagon covered
it's route. This brought up the ques-
ton of householders keeping their
ashes and garbage in separate con-
tainers and the containers to be of
suitable material that would do away
with much of the present annoyance
and the unsightly appearance of as
sorted boxes of paper and wood. The
matter was referred to the Committee
on Public Health to take action.
Improve Police Methods
Chief of Police Naedler reported
the robbery Of food stuff from a home
in Cliffside, and that although the
Police Department worked on the
case no clues could be found of the
thieves. Mayor Cadien spoke of the
frequencies of house breaking cases
that have been recently recorded and
OF the failure of the police in getting
the robbers. He would like to see
the police keep strict observance
on local properties.
Police to Hear Lecture

that lecturer from the Police De-
partment OF New York City would
be present at the Borough Hall on
Thursday night and giveNa talk on
Police Methods to the CHffside force.
To Get Flag
Mayor Cadlen wanted the council
to purchase a flag for the Borough
Hall. Although patriotism was ex !.
ceptionally keen at present, the of
fetal building of the community was
without the colors. He was instruct
ed to get one and have it raised over
the Borough Hall at once.
No Motorcycle Yet

what the Police Commissioner was
doing about getting motorcycle to
chase speeders and preserve order on
Palisade avenue. The matter is now
pending the arrival of prices of the

be laid on Gorge road from Ander-
son avenue to Palisade avenue.
Hoeckelberg Raises Kick
Councilman Hoeckelberg raised
objections against the people of Fair
view section who are dumping garb-
age near the borough line. He
started that it would be fine thing
to have only ashes Dumped at this
place, but the dumping of garbage
there was a positive nuisance and
that unless it was stopped he would
have to ask the council to take action.

prices on Tarvia and the question of
putting common oil or Tarvia on the
roads could not be settled at the
meeting
An ordinance to take over Over
