Key to Opium Traffic
Found in Newark Raid

What is believed to be the kew to
the opium traffic in this section of the
country was uncovered last night when
thrcc government inspectors, in COM
pany with Detectives Brex and DAILY,
OF the headquarters staff, Newark, raid
cd the premises OF Lee Tong, at 2o4
Mulberry Street. Newark.
On the fourth floor Of the building.
where Tong. n ixty-four-ycar.old
Chinaman, ostensibly conducts a tea
and coffee store. complete opium
manufacturing plant was discovered.
Two pots of the drug were in process
Of making when tho detectives entered,
and search revealed moro than $4,000
worth Of opium on the premises. This
was seized, as were two thousand small
tin plates of the typo known in the
traffic as t'hop toys"
The government agents encountered
no opposition in making the raid. They
drove up TO the place in an automobile
at about o'clock and found the pro-
prietor lying on a couch in q small
room back Of the shop on the ground
floor. An opium pipe lay beside him
and he was in tOrpor, unable to an
sWer questions.
Tong will be arraigned this morning
before United States Commissioner r
John A. Matthews on the charge Of
manufacturing and smuggling opium
also of smoking it.
Although many opium dens have been
broken up within the last year, this
is the first manufacturing plant the au.
thorities have raided since 1914, and
the government inspectors believe that
they have secured the pivot to the
opium smuggling and vending ring
in the East.

Wise Predicts
Hylan's Failure;
Hits Reformers

Rabbi Stephen S. Wise delivered hi,
sermon before the Free Synagogue in
Carnegie Hall yesterday in a fighting
mood. He assailed the Hylan admin
lstration and predicted failure for it
at its beginning. lie asserted that the
Mitchell administration had also been
failure. He then attacked reformcrs
IN general, and those men who have
been criticising the War Department in
particular. He wound up his discourse
with drive upon the universal mill
tary training plan and those who
fathered it.
Concerning the Tammany admins
tration, Rabbi Wise said:
:, Already 1t gives promise of being
the wrong kind of administration. If
the promises already shown by those
IN CITY hall are to be followed out. the
ELECTION of anybody else will be well
coined after this administration"
Ihe Mitchell administration, the rabbi
asserted, failed TO fulfil its much her
aided boast of reform
Expert accounting will not be &C.
espsed as the highest, service of an
administration" he declared. "Thc
common people scattered the DISGUISE
OF reform Upon Election Day.
I've have had all the professional
reformers that we want in the city for
all time to come. The crux of the
situation lies jim the fact that hitherto
we have failed to distinguish between
reform and rcformers. None of the up
llfters can stand much hauling down.
Tor they arc too near the ground all
ready"
He then launched into denunciation
OF the selfish officeholder who handed
out reform as benefaction. "Froak
retormers," he called them, "who seek
to reform for selfish purposes"
In such classification, DR.. Wise
placed the men who have been re-
ssponsible for the campaign against the
War Department and its head. Score
tary Baker. He charged these mon
with having been inspired with the
hope for future political prcferment
when they started their Exposure"
81 The charges were ill-timed," he as
serted. "The nation would have well
coined open-minded criticism which
would have been used to point out a
better way, but it has scorned the
suggestions Of him whose better way
has been selfish.
"The nation will not brook any man
who speaks seifshly. nor will it allow
a Presidential candidacy to be fur
thered by criticism Of the government" ;"
