WOMEN CONF En-
WITH GOVERNOR
See Runyon in Move for Special
Session Of Legislature
au Special CORRESPONDENT.


TRENTON, Aug. 12.-Governor
Runyon today told a delegation rep
resenting the National Women's party
of New Jersey that he would give SER
ious consideration to their request for
a special session of legislature, but
that he would have to consider the in
terests of state as a whole in so do
ing. The delegation was headed by
Mrs. j. A H. Hopkins, of Morris
town, who introduced Miss Emily
Pierson. of Newark, who spoke for the
special session.
During the course of his reply Gov
ernor Runyon read a telegram he had
received from Mrs. e. f. Feickert, on
behalf of the Women's Suffrage Asso-
citation, opposing a special session. Mr..
Runyon said the charge of the Ants !
that he was a recent convert to equal
suffrage was true and that the great
work of women in the war had chang
ed his mind on this question. He told
the delegation that he has now three
or four requests for a special session
and hinted that one could not be call
ed without all the interests insisting
on attention. Incidentally he said the
ratification of suffrage amendment
would mean a second special session
to amend the election laws, to meet
the new conditions imposed by the in
creased electorate.
Among those in the delegation
were: Mrs.C. ". Bulkley, of Jersey
city: Mrs. Raymond Eswing. Summit;
Mrs w. E. Cox, New Brunswick; Miss
Minnie d. Abbott. Atlantic City; Mrs.
Joseph Cranmer, Camden; Miss Elsie

FIRE TODAY DOES
$1,000 DAMAGE
State Street Restaurant is Gut
ted by the Flames
ONE FIREMAN IS SHOCKED
Proprietor, Asleep When Fire
Starts, Is Rescued---Cause
of Blaze is Unknown

Fire at 1855 o'clock this morning
practically destroyed the one story
frame building at 975 State street, do
ing damage estimated at $1,000. The
building was owned by Joseph Turek,
of Smith street, and was occupied by
Arthur Gabor, who, together with his
mother, conducted a restaurant there.
The fire started from an unknown
origin and Gabor, who was asleep in
the rear of the building at the time,
had to be rescued by means of lad
der, so much headway had the flames
secured. before being discovered. AL
though the building is a one-story
structure the rear of the lot goes into
a gully, making considerable drop
from the window to the ground.
Mrs. Gabor was not in the building
at the time of the fire, she having
gone to New York to visit relatives
yesterday.
The alarm Of fire was rung in from
box 5S at the United Lead Works,
the restaurant being located directly
across the street from that plant.
When the fire companies arrived the
blaze was gaining headway quickly
and before many minutes the entire
building was in flames.
It was an hour before the flames
had been placed under control and
by that time the building had been
almost demolished and the stock
ruined. The out taps did not ring
until 4 o'clock.
According to an estimate of damage
made this morning by Turek the own
er of the place, the damage amount
ed to about $4,000 to the building and
$2500 to Gabor's stock. This building
was threatened by fire on February 7
last year when fire broke out there
during the severe cold spell.
While fighting the fire this morn

was in the flames and falling struck

FEDERAL HELP
FOR CITY CLINIC
Capt. ROhr Of U. 5. Health SeTV-
ice, Pledges Aid to DR.. silk

Government support of the indus
trial and venereal disease clinics was
promised yesterday as the final guar
antee of the success of the Board of
Health's campaign to improve con-
ditions in the city, by Captain l.. J.
Rohr, M. d. Bureau of Venereal Dis
ease Control, United States Public
Health Service in an interview with
DR.. Charles /. Silk president of the
Board
Captain Rohr- stated that he had
come prepared to offer the backing OF
the federal health service to the ex-
tent of supplying both money and
physicians, if necessary.
The health officer expressed his
qualification at the favorable reports
that were made to him. Since the
Silk said that the committee had
agreed to take the rooms in the bank
building and had had several appli-
cations for the supervision of the
child welfare and venereal disease
clinics. 1t has been understood from
the first that the industrial clinic
would be operated by the govern
ment, DR.. Silk said, and the captain
assured him that the government
would take care of that bureau.
While the names of the applicants

board it is expected that when the
board meets Friday night there will
be several physicians on the list who
will qualify easily. 1t is thought that
If possible it will be advisable to Sc
cure a doctor of some experience to
take charge of the venereal disease
clinic.
Much satisfaction has been express
ed throughout the city with the de-
cision of the board last week to put
the clinics through as quickly as pos
sible. The next steps to be taken
by the board before the clinics can
be put in actual operation will be
the equipment of the offices and the
appointing OF physicians to take
charge of the bureau. 1t is not antisi-
pated that there will be much difficult
ty in that.
