BAD OYSTER SALES
LAID TO TAMMANY
La Guardia Calls on Health
Department to Act.

Charges that oysters that are a
menace to health are being sold In New
York city with the official approval OF
the Tammany administration were
made last night by Representative +.
III La Guardia, the Republican oandi-
date for President OF the Board OF
Alderman. They were made In a speech
In North Eighth street, near Bedford
avenue, Brooklyn.
THE Health Department should show
some regard for public welfare and stop
their sale at once" said Mr.. La
Guardla. "The oyster beds are in
Jamaica Bay. where 100000 gallons
Of filth empty every day. The oysters,
according to sworn statements by
Luciu5 Polk Brown, Chief of the
Bureau OF Food and Drugs in the city's
Health Department should not be per-
mitted to be sold.
ut is a disgrace to have the Health
Department sanction the spread Of
disease. For s4,7s7,s22e2 the taxpay-
ers are asked to pay for running the
Health Department they deserve bet
ter treatment than this"

Comptroller Craig that the city must be
permitted TO issue its long time bonds
(which the pay as you go" act prohib-
ited) In order to raise tho money neces-
sary for the construction Of additional
school buildings, which were made es-
sential by reason of this administrations
abandonment of the policy of using ex-
listing school facilities more intensively.
Upon that plea the Legislature
passed and the Governor approved the
Comptroller's bill. which is now a law
Of this State and which Is fully opera
tive, to permit the Issue of corporate
stock for whatever sums the Department
of Education can spend next year for
new school sites and new buildings The
only reason advanced for the admins
tration's failure to employ this method
OF finance is the Comptroller's resent
ment at certain court decisions, which
have thus far prevented the depredations
of the city administration upon our pub
lie school system. The Comptrollers
sulking, however. Is no justification for
the unnecessary addition of over $685.

see what the admlnlstratlon VIII 10 with
reference to the patronage and pap"
provided in the tentative budget These
interesting aspects will be discussed In

The budget committee worked until
a late hour last night, and when they
finished Comptroller Craig announced
that there was still so much clerical
work to do on the tentative budget that
no analysis OF 1t could be made public
before tomorrow or Tuesday. The pub
lie hearings probably viii begin Wednes-
day or Thursday.
After the meeting It was reported about
City Hall that the millions inserted for
Board OF Education building, grown to

ready had been dropped out o. the tenta-
tive draft So had 100000 for paving

HUGHES WILL AID
MCOOK CAMPAIGN
George Fl. Bell Replies to
Murphy's Argument.

Announcing the acceptance by Charles
Evans Hughes OF an Invitation to serve
on the campaign committee of Philip
]. McCook, Republican candidate for the
Supreme Court, George II. Bell. his cam
paign manager said last night:
Mr.. Hughes would not serve on the
committee unless he felt that he was
supporting tho right candidate for the
Supreme Court. From his long expert
ence Mr. Hughes knows the qualifica-
lions necessary for a position of that
kind and his Endorsement OF Major Nc
Cook Is going to be of great assistance
to u.s.
Upon receiving information that Tam
many Hall had instructed its speakers
to defend its failure to renominate JUS
tice Joseph f. Newburger on the ground
that since Charles F. Murphy had been
leader they had never renominated
judges who had served so long as
twenty-eight years on the bench and
would have to retire In a few years,
William F. Schneider said:
"In putting out this statement Tam
many Hall has overlooked the fact that
they have nominated for reelection a
man who has been twenty-eight years
on the bench and will have to retire
before his term is up. That man is
Justice William F. Moore. of the First
District Municipal court. He was ap-
pointed by the Governor in 1890 and
was elected In November OF that year.
He has been continuously on the bench
since. He was CO years old in 1918.
Another case is that of Justice Dugro
who after serving twenty-eight years on
the bench was renominated and reelected
in 1914 for a fourteen year term. He
could then only serve six years because
he was Ga years old at the time of his
election and will be obliged to retire
because of the age limit next year.
This finally disposes of Mr.. Murphy's
weak attempt to Justify his outrageous
assault upon the judiciary"

Charles Edward Russell, who
has been an editorial writer HIM

article in the July number of The
Bookman thus pictures the atti-

editorials:
| am convinced that the best
editorial pages in our newspapers
are read-perhaps not generally
or widely, but still they are read,
and certainly public taste de-
mand them; but they are always
read with reserve. For us, gone
dumb is the oracle Of long ago.
Once there might have been mag
ic and mystery in the editorial

Olympus! Nay, even when he
shrieks in double heads an das-
suress all and sundry of the SUI
preme Importance Of what he is
saying. the effect is still the same
we do not care hoot.
We wonder if it is as bad as
all that. Certainly the writer OF
any sort who presumes to trans
nit tips from Olympus is laugh

be. But is that the ideal function

Began Life In coaIpit.

Sir Joseph Cook, the minister Of the
Australian navy and one of the COM
monwealth's delegates to the peace
conference, began life in a coalpit in
Staffordshire, England. While work
ing miner he sought to improve his
education in every way, and in his
spare moments in the pit acquired a
knowledge of shorthand. At the age
Of twenty-five he decided to try his
luck in Australia and went to New
South Wales in 1885. He obtained
work in a mine near sydney and took
an active interest in promoting the
welfare of his fellow-workers. He
then became secretary Of the local
miners union and this proved the step
ping-stone to political life.
