Camp Dix.

Fifty per cent Of the officers and re-
cruits were given leave of absence from
Saturday noon until Sunday night
AS consequences the camp seemed
very quiet, particularly on Sunday.
There were many visitors here but not
as large crowd as on previous Sun.
days. Automobiles were not allowed
to enter the cantonment, but were
compelled to park outside. Visitors
on foot were given the freedom of the
camp.
Captain Frederick S. Laing, one OF
the most popular and efficient officers
in camp Dix, who is in command OF
Company l, S11th infantry, has re-
quested the communities from which
his recruits were drafted, to raise a
company fund, supply tobacco, sweat.
ers, football suits, etc., for his men.
These recruits come principally from
Burlington county. A committee,
with Robert s. Gaskill, of Mount
Holly, as chairman, has been formed
for this purpose, with the following
members: Daniel w. Bishop. Florence
NJ. Warner Hargrove, Browns Mills;
William H. Holt, Riverside; John P.
Hutchinson, Georgetown; William ].
Trick, Vincentown; Jonathan H. KEEL

lington; George N. Winner, Palmyra;
Charles A. Wright, Riverton.
II Orders have been received that the
colored troops are to ibe transferred to
another camp today. Theylhave been
doing all the guard duty here for many
weeks and have performed the work
efficiently. The colored band will be
greatly missed not only here but in
several nearby towns and cities where
concerts were scheduled.

Problems Discussed by Business
Men


! A number of problems created by
the proximity of Camp Dix received
attention at a special meeting of the
Mount Holly Business Mems Associa.
ton on Tuesday night.
A committee that had been appoint
ed to investigate the necessity or desir-
ability of opening rest house for
soldier visitors who from time to time
may come to Mount Holly, reported
that two houses are available for that
purpose. The committee recommend
ed that in view of the heavy expense
OF maintaining the house, that action
he deferred until the regular meeting
of the association this month, by
which time it may be better determin-
ed to what extent the soldiers will visit
the town.
Then, too, the town was threatened
with being closed against soldier visit
ors on account of an alleged riot that
took place on the Saturday night pre-
vious, when five celored soldiers got in
to a row among themselves on Wash
ington street, and we're arrested for
creating disorder.
If the town is to be ostracised, Of
course no rest house will be needed.
Like in every other community that
is located near the camp, some of the
soldiers coming here have received in
toXicants from the hands of civilian
gobetweens, but strong efforts are be-
ing exerted to prevent this practice
from being continued.
1t was decided to recommend that
the township committee place extra
policemen on duty on Saturday nights.
A committee, composed Of William
C. Wetherill, Herbert S. Killie and
Elwood c. Stokes, was appointed to
call on Major General c. w. Kennedy,
at Camp Dix, to explain to him the
steps that are being taken to keep
liquor from soldiers when they visit
Mount Holly.
A committee that had been appoint
ed to arrange for an Rutobus line be-
tween Mount Holly and Camp Dix re-
ported progress. Several owners of
suitable cars have arranged to make
regular trips, at charge of fifty cents
each way, and a schedule will be an
nounced later.

Order or Disorder in Town.

vi MI Va 0A0OA MI III \ wv
At the meeting. of the Business
Mems Association, Tuesday evening,
Frank Garbarino, special agent in the
United States Department OF Justice,
referred to the disorder that occurs in
Mount Holly, frequently, and suggests
that the town should put more police
officers on duty. He said unless
something was done to stop the prac-
tees which cause the soldiers who.
come here to be disorderly the Camp
Dix authorities would probably issue
an order restraining the soldiers from
visiting the town. The main offence
seems to oe the easy way in which
men in uniform get liquor.
That there is disorderly set among
the men at Camp Dix has been shown
more than once in the last three weeks.
Mount. Holly had been able to take
care of all ordinary disorderly cases up
to that time, why should the taxpayers
be called upon to engage special police
men to look after the extra disorder?
True, the soldiers are getting liquor,
bought by persons who seem to have
access to the bars. One night last
week colored man was seen to be
i talking with some soldiers who gave
him something. He went into q bar
room, came out and went to spot a
short distance away and handed some
thing to one of the soldiers. Nobody
could swear what it was but a good
guess might be made. Did the bar
tender know that the liquor, if such it
was, was being bought for the use OF
the purchaser or did he let it go for
what it was worth? II the places
where liquor is sold need watching
that is up to the county or township
authorities.
The protest put in by agent Garba-
rino about the great disorder" in
Mount Holly is rather amusing when
the acts at Camp Dix and other placer
are brought to mind. 1t seems there
was equal disorder at the camp or
Wednesday when there was nearly {
race riot. The 26th U. S. Engineer
contains many Southerners, while the
18th New York is made up OF coloreC
volunteers. Details of the latter hav,
been assigned to sections surrounding
the barracks of the white men and tn,
Iavatories of the latter have been used
On Wednesday somebody put up 1
sign reading: Niger Soldiers Not All
lowed" Complaint was made abou
? this so it was removed and anothe
was put up, reading: "For Whit
Soldiers Only" This was too mucl
' for the colored soldiers and a numbe
got at the sign, pulled it down ant
burned it.
The commanding officers of the en-
gineers' corps saw this act and al
open fight was prevented. The officer
and members OF the engineers corp
naturally felt resentment against tn
colored men, and the officers of tn
4 latter were not inclined to be too sever
8 with them. If the facts have been re
z lated correctly it would seem as if tn
z white men need considerable disciplin
i ing. 1t would also look as il the doc
\ steps at Camp Dix might be whitene'
3 little before bringing down punish
8 ment on poor Mount Holly.
i 1t is also reported that there has bee
s disorder in Trenton, but it hs
% not been shown that the city has ha
" notice served on it that there must
g change or the soldiers will be kept {
o. home.
