Opposes Judson Measure
Physical Director Declares II
Cheats Country School
Children

DR.. c. Ward Champion. director of
physical training in the schools of the
city, declared yesterday that the Jud-
son amendment to the Welsh bill vir-
tually nullified physical training for
school children so far as country
schools were concerned
at leaves the instruction to the
country school teacher, who is often
little more than graduate from a
high school which gave no instruction
in these Matters" he said "and it
leaves these teachers without supervi
sion, helpless to learn what they should
teach"
The facts brought out by the draft
and the opinion of insurance men and
other experts agree. Dr. Champion con
tinued, in indicating that the country
boy Of to-day certainly is no more
healthy and is likely to have less
physical aptitude and endurance than
his city cousin.
Under these circumstances and in
view of the fact that New York took
the lead in legislation providing for
physical training in schools, DR.
Champion believes that the danger in
the Judson amendment should be
recognized and avoided.

she continued. "They will find they

Bill Offered to Force
Cities to Build Homes

If bill recently introduced by AS
semblyman Feigenbaum becomes law.
this and other cities of the first or
second class in the state will 90 into
the real estate business as builders and
owners of tenement houses. These
houses are to be erected with view
to renting them to the inhabitants. A
commissioner, to be elected next No.
vember, would carry out the provisions
of the act.
One Of these provisions is: "All land
not already built upon, nor with build
ing operations under way, shall immc-
dlately upon the passage of this act
be condemned and taken over by the
city"
Another reads: ono one shall be de-
MED the right to live in any house or
in any neighborhood because OF race,
color, religion, politics, social affilia-
tlons or because Of the number of chill
drcn."
The land is to be acquired by pur-
chase or condemnation In regard to
this bill, the Real Estate Board said
yesterday: "The board believes that the
Legis ature will not indorse a plan for
the wholesale condemnation of vacant
land and the construction Of munich
pally owned houses. To cause the tax
payers to pay for condemned land, the
houses upon which are to be rented at
cost, would be to contribute to a GER
tain portion of the community the
property of other members of the COM

John Mitchell, chairman of the local

nave gotten their supplies early, but it
might be borne in mind that there will
be no opportunity for speculative
profit by dealers who shrewdly lay in
more than their customers would want,
with a view TO advancing prices when
the shortage occurs. SO the chief in
ducement to lay in supply has been
taken away from dealers.
Another Crisis Predicted
Just what Dr.. Garfield's objections
20 the old plan Of raising the price 10
cents ton a month during the spring
and summer are hard to see. The
man who is willing to- lay in his coal
many months before it is needed is GER
tainly entitled to buy that coal at a
price which will reimburse him for his
loss of interest. and by withdrawing
that incentive, which has been found to
work successfully by dealers all over
the country for many years, am afraid
DR.. Garfield will find himself in an
other mess similar to that brought
about by the advice TO the public last
year not to buy coal, as prices would
be reduced"

Policeman Caught in Shop
He Is Arrested With Ham Un-

Patrolman McGovern stumbled over
side of beef early yesterday morning
on the sidewalk outside butcher shop
at 26O Jackson Avenue, Jersey City.
McGovern entered the shop. His flash
light revealed, he said, the familiar
features of Thomas Hubert, fellow
ratrolman. Hubert was not in uni
fern, and, it is alleged, had a ham
under his arm. He was accompanied,
McGovern said, by Frank Bowers, of 4S
Rutgers Avenue, friend.
Hubert ana Bowers and the ham were
locked up separately in the Ocean Ave-
nue. police station. Hubert declared
that he and Bowers had noticed that
the butcher shop door was unlocked
and had gone in TO see if thief was at
work. Bowers corroborated him.
