CITY MISSION
WILL KEEP UP
( ANOTHER YEAR
Possibility of Operating the
Y. NJ. c. A. Building On a
Larger Scale

A small but interested audience met
at the Y. M. C. A. building Friday
evening to decide the future Of the
activities of the building and after
general discussion of the whole sit
uation it was voted to maintain the
City Mission another year with a
possibility of enlarging the work by
the employment of a physical direc-
tor for the Y. M. C. A.
z. S. Waterman presided and the
treasurer's report showed all bills
paid for the year and surplussin the
treasury. Ehe superintendent re-
port was~also read, showing a cash
balance now on hand in the general
work of the City Mission and also IN
the building fund.
Attention was called to the fact that
there would be less income the COM
ing year on the Colonial property as
Fox and Eaton has cancelled their
lease and later in the evening it was
voted to appoint the treasurer, w. B.
Eastman, temporary manager of the
Colonial property.
The trend of the discussion that fol
lowed the presentation of the reports
was that the City Mission, under the
management of Mr.. and Mrs. | G.
Marshall, had done such good work
that it ought to be maintained, but
all the speakers felt that it would be
impossible to properly finance the
activities of modern Y. M. c. A.
plan.
Mr.. Waterman said to maintain the
City Mission another year would cost
$4,000 If the City Mission was
maintained with physical director
: for the Y. M C. A. it would be nee
essary to raise $500, and if it was
decided to have a modern Y. NJ. c..
A. plant with all its activities it
would cost $1,000 a year.
Attention was called to the fact
that it might be possible to sell the
bowling alley equipment and install
in its place a swimming pool. This
suggestion was made by Rev. F. B.
Richards, who said he was much
pleased to note the recent article in
the Caledonian uring swimming
pool for st. Johnsbury.
Pledges were then passed around
among the score or more present and
nearly $375 was Pledged towards the
support of the City Mission another
year. President Waterman left it
with the ministers present, Messrs.
| Martin, Poole, Richards, Scott and
Woodwork to arrange for union
service to present the work of the
City Mission for another year and
take subscriptions at that meeting.
A finance committee was then ap-
pointed consisting of S. ID. Atwood,
L. P. Leach and John C. Clark to
plan for financing the enterprise.
| 1t was voted to appoint commit
tee to investigate the expense of a
swimming pool, and to see if it
was possible to secure a physical di-
rector Mr.. Waterman appointed on
this committee P. F. Hazen, Charles
| w. Steele and Rev. DR.. F. A. Poole.
Mr.. Waterman reminded those
present of the annual meeting on the
first Friday in October and appoint
ed Judge Walter P. Smith, G. G..
Bingham and Arthur F. Stone on the
nominating committee.

LAli ING GIVES
WARNING AGAINST
INTERNATIONALISM
Tells American Bar AssOcia.
ton Dangers That Now
Confront World

BOSTON, Mass, Sept. 6-Secre-
tary Lansing, before the American
Bar Association here today in his
first public speech since returning
from the Peace Conference gave a
warning that the theory of interna-
tionalism or "Mundanism," which re-
ceived great impetus during the war,
constituted a grave danger to world
order, but expressed his conviction
that democratic nationalism as sane
would survive as the basis of society.
Secretary Lansing urged strongly
the establishment of an international
court as modelled by the Hague con-
vention, and founded in the principle
of strict legal justice, for the settle
ment of disputes between states, and
the codification of international law
into an exact system. He paid tri-
butte to the Hague Convention of
1907, whose work, although imper-
feet and hampered by "the evil pur-
poses which the powers of Central
Europe had so long secretly cherish
ed" he said, still stands as an instru-
ment for the maintenance of the law
of nations.
Without an international court and
codifed laws Secretary Lansing pre-
dicted return to diplomatic anarchy
since "nations today are influenced
more by selfshness than by an altru-
sistic of justice" He gave warning
that 1--WE should not deceive ourselves
by assuming that the policies of 9TH
er governments are founded on un-
selfishness or on a constant purpose
to be just even though the conse-
alences be contrary to their immedi-
ate interests"
"Let us then with as little delay
as possible" said he, establish an
international tribunal or tribunals of
justice with the Hague Court as a
foundation; let US provide an easier,
cheaper and a better procedure
than now exists; and let US draft a
simple and concise body of legal
principles to be applied to the ques-
tions to be adjuicated"
Speaking of the plans of the Peace
Conference to place on trial in a N-
dicial court the former German En-
Fperor, Mr.. Lansing recalled that it
was the commissioners of the United
States who stood opposed to such
trial, although at was recognized
that he had committed a great mo-
raj crime, an objectionable otfense
against humanity"
The stand of the American Com
missioners, he said, was based on the
conviction that there was no provi-
sion of written or unwritten law for
the definition and punishment of
crimes against humanity.
"The decision was reached,p he
said, "with reluctance because of the
firm conviction that the German rul-
er was guilty, although his guilt was
not of a nature which could be de-
clared and punished by a judicial
tribunal-it was by no means an easy
task to deal with the question of
expressing properly mankind's con-
demnation of the individual whose
inordinate greed and vanity were
chiefly responsible for the dreadful
misery and waste which the wor' /

DISCUSS PLANS
ON NEW SCHOOL
New Building on Hall Avenue to
Have "a Rooms and
Auditorium

A three story, fire proof structure,
with approximately twenty-four
rooms, separate heating unit, an au-
ditorium which will accommodates
about 1900, to be used for gymna-
SUM as well as for meetings or all
natures, a room to be utilized as a
branch public library with a special
entrance, is the tentative idea of the
Board Of Education for the propos-
ed new school to be erected in the
near future on their 200 400 let on
Hall avenue, between Arnold avenue,
Alta Vista Place and Jacques street,
as brought out last night at special
meeting of the board in consultation
with several architects.
This new school is absolutely nee
essary since the grammar school and
schools 5, 6, and 8 are now over
loaded and to build the new school
will save constructing additions to the
present buildings.
Victor w. Main. chairman of the
building committee, presented the
plans of the board to the architects
and declared that the commissioners
were desirous of having a building, so
constructed that subsequent additions
may be made, doubling the capacity
of original edifice, without detracting
the least from the architectural ap-
pearance of the building. Mr.. Main
said that the board also had in mind
an open air class room in which pu-
pills suffering from a durable disease
might be instructed, and thus be edu-
Gated and brought back to health at
the same time. 1t was suggested that
two rooms be half as large again as
the regular classrooms, these rooms to
be used as special departments for do
mestic science and manual training
work.
There was quite some discussion as
to the manner in which the architects
should present their plans. Some
thought that to express their idea OF
the proposed building to the best ad-
vantage, the plan should be drawn on
prospective and others thought ideas
could be portrayed best in elevation.
1t was finally decided to leave the
style in which the plans are to be
drawn up to the discretion of the
architects themselves.
The architects present were John II.
Dayton, /. Greisen. J. N. Pierson. and
]. X. Jensen.

FIVE CENT FARE
IN CITY LIMITS
IS THE DEMAND
Alderman and Democratic Club
Start Move Against Plan Pro-
posed by Public Service

To fight for a five cent trolley fare
on the lines of the Public Service
Railway in the city limits and to op-
pose the coming system which the
company has submitted TO the board
of Public Utility Commissioners, when
it comes up for a hearing on March
26, before the commission, the Board
of Aldermen will meet tonight at the
suggestion of the mayor to hear his
recommendation that the city hire
special counsel to represent the city
at the hearing and to state the city's S
case and represent its interests.
The Perth Amboy Democratic Club
last night adopted a resolution oppos-
ing the proposed zone system and
went op record in favor of the five
cent fare within the city limits.
The meeting will be held tonight at
City Hall at o'clock. The city's fight
will be based on the five cent fare on
any of the company's lines within this
city.
Under the proposed zoning system,
the fare on the Middlesex line TO the
city limits. out Smith street would be
seven cents. On the Railway line.
the fare to the Woodbridge creek
bridge, the city limits, would be eight
cents. and on the Amboys line. operat-
ing to South Amboy. the fare would
be six cents to the county bridge.
-
zoning system OF collecting fares as
proposed by the Public Service Cor
poration was taken at the regular
meeting of the Perth Amboy Demo-
cratic Club last night. The club
members felt that the imposition Of
the new rates would prove an injus-
tice to the citizens OF Perth Amboy.
1T was the opinion of all present that
the slogan of Perth Amboy should be
"A five cent fare within the city
limits" There was a denunciation
of the railroad corporation by Arthur
A. Quinn, who scored the autocratic
methods adopted by the utilities cor
poration. Lack of proper transit
facilities in Perth Amboy, Mr.. Quinn
said, were largely responsible for re-
tarding the progress of the city.
The resolution adopted by the club
reads as follows:
Whereas the Public Service Cor
poration has presented to the Public
Utilities Commission a proposed sys-
TEN of rates. commonly called the
"zoning system of payment" and
Whereas this proposal in its pres
ent form is without merit and its
effects will be unjust and unfair and
will prove a grave detriment to the
people of Perth Amboy, therefore be

ocratic Club, in session assembled this
goth day OF March, 1919, that 1t go
on record as opposing the adoption of
the aforesaid proposal, and be il fur
