NEW YORK, August 9-The usual
Saturday throngs at Manhattan termi-

Beach were absent today. The strike
of Brooklyn carmen, which for three
days paralyzed traffic on the surface

A few elevator and subway trains

the service was sporadic and patron
age extremely light. No surface cars
were operated after o'clock last
night and the total ordered out of
the barns. this morning were totally
Inadequate.
In an effort to end the strike Louis
Nixon, Public Service commissioner,
arranged to meet q committee of
strikers and listen to their griev--
ances. He used the declaration of
Brooklyn Rapid Transit company,
that he would not treat with a COM
mittee that merely represented the
union. 1t was Mr.. Nixon's plan to
urge the strikers to appoint a repre-
sentative delegation to meet the re-
ceiver's demand that negotiations for
O. settlement be carried on by strictly
bonafide employees. whether on strike
or not.
Commissioner Nixon was hopeful
that the striking employees would ac-
cede to the receivers demands in the
Interest of q settlement. Inasmuch
as recognition of the union is chief
among the strikers demand much
doubt was expressed that Mr. Nixon's
plan would be successful.

DORSEY, WITH 4
OTHER MAYORS,
To WASHINGTON
Named AS Delegates to Protest
to Congress on High Cost
Of Living

Mayor Frank, Dorsey was
named as delegate to Washing
ton with four other Mayors of
the State at a conference of over
40 executives at Newark yester-
day, to protest to Congress
against the high living costs. The
meeting was held I'M the City
Hall, Newark, at the invitation
Of Mayor Gillen.
Perth Amboy was the fourth
city in the state to order supplies
from the army, it was learned
from the reports Of the mayors.
In comparison with the plans
made by other cities to handle
the foodsuffs the executives ex-
pressed the opinion that this city
had the most complete plans for
distributing and selling the goods.
Resolutions were suggested, but
were abandoned for the plan to have
"a delegation actually appear before
Congress. Teh five Mayors who will
go to Washington are Frank Hage
of Jersey City, Victor Mravtag OF
Elizabeth, Frank Dorsey of Perth
Amboy, David H. Slayback of We
roma and Robert e. Torrance of
Kearny.
Prominent in practically every May
ors talk at the conference was the
unmistakable evidence he found of
constant grumbling at the prevailing
high prices among his people. Sew
eral predicted that unless strong ac-
ton for relief Is taken by the Gov
ernment imme ediately. serious trouble
will esue.
City Commissioner Underwood
Cochran of Atlantic City suggested
the uplan to send delegation to
Washington. In an arraignment of
the Big Five packers, he declared
them to be greater menace to this
country than Germany ever dared to
be.
The plan to have the food sold
here is meeting with the warmest re-
sponses and great eagerness is shown
by persons anxious to learn when,
where and how it will be sold. An
application has been received from
the General Cigar Company, manu-
facturers, for a line of the supplies
to be sold by them to their employees
at cost. The mayor replied that until
the city had sold some of the food
and learned the demand he could not
say whether it would be possible to
let the cigar company have any, ex-
cept that he was anxious to have the
stuffs as widely distributed as possi-
BILE. The sale will not be confined to
residents of Perth Amboy but will
also be open to persons residing in
nearby communities.

BOARD Of HEALTH
WINS FIGHT FOR
CLINIC IN CITY
Three Phases Of Social Work
to Be Included In Rooms
Hired BY Board

Deciding that the rooms over the
First National Bank, State street and
New Brunswick avenue are the most
suitable for their work the Board of
Health at a special meeting last night
moved to notify John l.. O'Toole,
agent for the bank property that the
board would take the rooms. They
will be used as an infant welfare sta
ton, venereal disease clinic and in
dustrial clinic.
The acceptance of the rooms by the
board followed an inspection of the
premises last Saturday. The suite of
one large and one small room will
be made into three rooms by the re-
placing Of q partition that originally
divided the larger room.
The action taken by the board last
night in definitely accepting these
rooms for the health clinics assures
the city of the promised relief for
which the board has long been work
ing Despite the setback the venereal
disease clinic plan received at the
hands of the triple committee the
board persisted in it's determination to
place the advantages of such q clinic
before the city until the final steps
were taken last night.
Through the courtesy of Hamilton b.
Kean, president of the bank, Mr..
O"Toole informed the board that the
regular rent of $3.50 per month for
the rooms would be cut to SIS per
month.
Mr.. Dilts and Mr.. Damgaard were
appointed a committee to arrange for
the installation of plumbing. erection
of a partition and the purchase of
equipment and apparatus. The equip
ment needed Is simple and 1t Is hoped
that some of it may be obtained from
the army authorities who used the
rooms at one time.
The board issued a special appeal
to the physicians of the city for vol
unteers to take charge of the child
welfare and venereal disease clinics.
The doctors will be given full charge
Of their respective departments and
will be consulted before the equip
ment Is installed. Only a few hours
week will be necessary in return for
very valable experience. DR.. I. Silk,
president OF the board said.
The industrial clinic will be con-
Quoted entirely by the officers OF the
United States Health Department.
Office hours will be in the evenings
when employees of the various facto-
ries in the city may call for examina-
tions. TIE idea of the Industrial sur
vey is to inform the workmen in va
rious industries as to whether they are
fitted for the kind of work in which
