ITALIANS HOLD
CELEBRATION
Parade and Meeting at High
School Auditorium Last Eve
ming Well Attended

Five hundred italian citizens Of
this city gathered in the high schooi
auditorium last night in celebration
of the surrender of Austria and the
retaking by he italians Of Triest and
Triento. This territory was captured
from the Italians some three or four
hundred years ago and 1t has always
been the ambition of the Italians to
once more add 1t to their nation.
Before the meeting a parade head
ed by the Columbus Italian Band
marched over the principal streets or
the city and disbanded at the audi
torium, where the meeting was held.
The speakers were Mayor John f.
TenBroeck. Attorney Thomas Brown.
Charles Morrello and Rev. G. Galassf.
The audience was thrilled with the
patriotism of the occasion and ap-
plauded each remark that dealt with
the italian nation.
The addresses were along the same
line, Mayor TenBroeck and Mr..
Brown speaking in English and Rev.
Galassi and Mr.. Morrello speaking in
italian. They lauded the work OF
Italy and her army, and told the
audience that they should feel proud
of the nation that a year ago was 80
near defeat and today has come out
victorious.
Italy had everything to lose by
siding with the Allies 1t was pointed
out by the speakers, but she pre-
from the south and east and in this
way protected not only France but
the whole world from the foot of the
hun, and made the winning of the
war against Germany and her Allies

DR.. William II. Wolfram. the
United States Public Health physi-
clan and also an assistant health
officer of this city, with his ASSISTANTS,
Messrs. Anderson and Smith and San
itary Inspector Thomas Wilhelm, OF
the Board of Health. made an inspec-
ton of the City Isolation Hospital
and the things that they found there,
according to DIR. Wolfram, are too
horrible almost to describe.
According to DIR. Wolfram, when
they got to the hospital they found 1t
without a bit of food and the patients
hungry. This was at o'clock in the
afternoon and the nurses and pa
tients had not had luncheon because
some one who should have looked
after this matter had gone away.
DIR. Wolfram got food to the place
at once and saw to Ii that the patients
and nurses had a good meal and left
word with the head nurse. Miss
Nelson, that at any time during his
stay in this city that food or drugs
were needed at the hospital to order
them at once and send the bill to him
and he would gladly pay II.
DIR. Wolfram says that in making
an examination of the place he found
deep sewer which is uncovered and
flows to within fifty feet of the hos
pital and the stencil from this sewer
| is SO bad that 'it Is no wonder sick
people die as fast as they do"
| He says that he also found a cess
pool eighteen feet In circumference
which carried foul matter from a
nearby place and which ends SO
close to the hospital that one could
throw a stone from the hospital win

Hospital In Debl0rable Shape

dow into 1t. This is covered with two
old rotten boards and as the pool Is
very deep II Is feared that q child 60
ing along that way might fall into 1t
and drown.
The stencil from this pool, the doc
tor said, is too horrible to describe
and Is enough to make a healthy per-
son sick. let alone kill a sick person
who might be at the hospital for
treatment.
He says that the milk served to
the hospital Is awful and that he
will most likely make an example OF
some one in this matter. He found a
four-quart bottle of milk on the top
of the icebox where 1t had been
standing for hours uncovered and II
had almost turned sour.
The doctor laughed when he de-
scribed the icebox, a small bit Of a
thing, he stated, hardly big enough
for a family of four and yet here is a
hospital which at the present time
has ten patients as we'll as nurses and
they have such an .cebox.
These matters were at once report
ed to William j. Willsey, health off,
Ger of the health board, and 1t is ex-
pected that he will take some action
to remedy them.
DR.. Wolfram now has his Office in
the Federal building at Maple and
Jefferson streets and his hours will
be from o'clock in the afternoon
until 8 o'clock at night, at which time
he will be glad to see anyone who
wishes to call on him to complain
about health matters for he is deter
mined to make Perth Amboy clean
er and better city as far as the health
question goes.
