THE CONCERN OF ALL OF US

The statement of Health Officer Wilsey as published yesterday
recites facts that should bring home to the people of Perth Amboy the
Importance of the mass meeting to be held by the Board of Aldermen
at City Hall Monday night. The public has been aroused and we be-
lieve the people have been impressed with what has been brought be-
fore them during the past few weeks. 1t is a matter for serious con-
shderation.
We have been free in appropriating money for fire protection, for
police protection, for education, but we have all but utterly ignored
health protection. Yet, when all is said and done, health is more i'm
portant than any of the others. If we have not health there is little
else that is worth while.
Anyone who takes the trouble to make the slightest investigation
into the conditions under which a large part of our population lives
will see almost at a glance that there is room for vast Improvement,
and unless an Improvement is made the city will continue to be ex-
posed and actually invites a repetition of widespread disease and
epidemic.
til a matter of education in sanitation and hygiene Is much as
anything else. The people living in filth and squalor, even though
they appear to like it, must be taught better. They must be raised to
a higher standard of living. With the wages paid to even the humb-
lest laborer In America today they can well afford it. For the safety
OF all OF us something must be done to better conditions here.
We believe that the great majority of the people want a radical
reform and Will consent to the expenditure of $4,000, if necessary,
u make It, but IN consentng to the expenditure of such a sum they
aus D. assured that it will be used for the purpose intended and that
mere VIII DC something actually worth while to show for the money
We all take great pride in the growth and prosperity of Perth
Amboy. We are justified in that pride. But if we are true to our
selves and our city We will welcome any constructive criticism and
exert every effort to profit thereby. Now that we have been aroused
to the health conditions of the city and made to realize the true state
OF AFFAIRS we should not hesitate a moment. Let us go ahead, even if
IL does mean a point or two increase in the tax rate, provided we are
assured that 1T will mean the saving of vast expense in doctor bills,
nurse hire and possibly the lives of loved ones in our homes.
Health comes first in all things. We have neglected it here in
Perth mboy too long. Let us place health first hereafter.

Today We Celebrate
Pope Benedict's Birthday.

Giacomo della Chiesa, Pope Bene-
dict XIV, will celebrate his sixty
fourth birthday today. as he was born
at Pegli. in the diocese of Genoa, on
November Fl, 1854. Few of the pom
tifs in the long history of the Church
of Rome have been called upon to dear
with International complications so
difficult as those which have con-
fronted Benedict XIV. The war has
divided Catholic countries all over the
world into warning camps. Austria's
~thirty-six million Catholics, headed by
the now defunct reigning house or
Hapsburg, always devou adherents of
the church, and Germany's twenty
millions of the disciples OF Rome,
were ranged on the one side. On the
otter art Frances thirty millions.
flaws thirty-two millions, the seven
millions of Belgium, the five and a
hall millions of the United Kingdom,
the five millions of Portugal, the elev-
en- millions of the United States. be-
sides the many millions in South
America who belong to countries at
war, eve1 if only technically, with the
Central Powers. In this crisis In the
worlds history the Pontiff has sought
to maintain IN attitude described as
"impartiality" rather tina neutrality
to uphold that supreme moral au-
thority which must be kept intact SO
tnat IL might De p to~reach
I the ultimate end Of leading toward
reconciliation of the peoples of the
earth"
Pope Benedict Is the sovereign pom
tiff OF about 272.s60.00O people. OF
these 1t is estimated that 1S3,760,0 900
are in Europe. about Sc. 900. 900 in
North America and practically the
same number in South America. There
are nearly a hundred million more
/ Roman Catholics in the world than
Protestants, the latter being estimated
at lit 900, 900. The Russian and
/ other eastern churches have a follow
ing of about 120, 900, 900.
Pope Benedict comes of a noble
family, his father having been the
Marchese della 1Chiesa. Several men,
bers of his family have fought in the
italian army. Three of his nephews
hold commissions In the forces of King
Victor Emmanuel. and all received
a special blessing from the Pope be-
fore they departed for the front. The
Pontiffs only surviving brother Is a
retired admiral of the Italian navy
who returned to active service after
the war broke out.
