FAIR PLAY"
Perth Amboy evening news., 1919-01-10
FIGHTING OSIS

There a no sale of Red Cross seals this year owing to the Christ
raas roll call that was conducted by the Red Cross at that time. These
Red Cross seals have been sold heretofore att one cent each for the pur-
pose of raising money to fight tuberculosis, a large portion of the
money thus raised being left in the community that raised 1t for local
work.
The fight against tuberculosis was taken up several years ago by
Tie Red Cross as a suitable work for that organization during times
Of peace, as it was realized that tuberculosis claimed more victims
every year than were killed in war. But for the past year the Red
Cross has been extremely busy with war work ahd so the tuberculosis
campaign has been left largely to the antitabereulosis societies that
have been organized throughout the country as Il result of the Red
tross activities.
In order that the antitubereulosis work might not suffer a a re-
suit OF the Red Cross Christmas roll call, the Red Cross agreed to con-
tribute a part of its funds raised by mean of the roll call for anti
tuberculosis work. With this understanding the Red Cross seals that
were usually sold at one cent each were. this year, given away with
each Red Cross membership.
In apportioning its funds for anti-tuberculosis work the Red Cross,
COO for the state of New Jersey. Each locality will be given a share
OF this appropriation i'll proportion TO the activities shown and the
aount of work planned to be accomplished.
MiddleseS county has a active tuberculosis organization and no
doubt steps are being taken to secure a share of the Red Cross money
for the local work. The Importance of this work cannot be over
estimated. The county is supposed to look after tuberculosis patients,
Int in spite of the fact that this is one of the greatest expenses of the
county today, the freeholders are not able to provide for many of the
eases that have been reported. This is due mainly to the crowded
conditions of the various sanitariums where Middlesex patients are
admitted.
One of the greatest needs of the county today is a tuberculosis
eanitarium of its own with ample facilities to care for all the Middlesex
patients where they will be within easy reach of relatives and friends
IN ideal site for such an institution has been purchased by the county
finding work for the thousands that will be forced into ideness ow-
ing to the closing of muniion plants and the eanceling by the gov
ernnent of large war orders, it might be well for the Board of Free
holders to consider the erection of a sanitarium in the near future.
While it is true the cost of building is high, something must be
done TO start activities along this line and create a demand for materir
ais and if the expense is excessive it il only fair that it be paid by the
public IN general so that all will help bear the burden. When the
necessity Of a tuberculosis sanitarium is considered, the excessive
cost of construction sinks into insignifcanee

And, for a while tn conductorettes came prettyn ear to living IL p 10 tho
expectation OF their champions.
They werec onsderate to old ladies and to mothers with little chndren,
and they were nt rough n unkind to the men.
And 1t is said that they never knocked down" n fares instead Of
ringing them up, as h men had the reputation Of doing.
But now? The nductorete arc probably still honest; too honest,
indeed If IN is to judge by h way they express their feelings.
They don't try to hide them or to leave II passenger in doubt as to
what they mean when they ret real ried.
At first 1T "a actually funny % hear the lady conductors talk back at

But It's beginning to get o. most Of u nerves. because when a rough

THE WATER BOARD APPOINT
MENT

Just a few words with regard to the
squabble just ended over the water
board appointment. 1t seems to me
that the proper light has not been
given. The fight has been more for
affiliations than for qualifications.
by popular vote, who would be elect
ed?
TenBroeck has been rejected en-
phatically by the people. rejected in
his own district where he has lived for
years. When we consider the major
ity he had over a popular man like
Weaver to be reversed to such q ma
jority for n politically unknown man:
when we consider how he. as mayor
of the city was ignored by our soldier
vote, 1t is very plain to be seer that
the big majority OF the people think
We have had all we want of John
TenBroeck.
Mr.. Baldwin, as a public office
holder, Is unknown. All that we know
Is that he is the manager of the cable
works. Mr.. Snedeker has had his
term In office and during that time
have continually perused the columns
of the EVENING NEWS and L cannot
remember ever seeing any of his C
tons criticized.
There is one thing that should have
appealed to a man like Mr.. Reidy.
who has to answer the whistle every
day, and hat Is that Mr.. Snedeker Is
III of the heads OF a concern that
pays the highest wages In the city to
both skilled and unskilled labor.
According TO the columns of the
NEWS, he mayor said a few days
ago, Get n Republican vote and
Mr.. Snedeker will go back"
II was well known the standing of
Waters and Grouse. so it is plain to be
seen that Clark and Patton would
have sent Mr.. Snedeker back. When
Reidy Topped Stas and gave his vote
to a man the people had rejected. 1t
showed the game was one of afiilia-
tions before qualifications and the
people at large will commend the
stand of Clark and Patton when they
beat them to II. j. NJ.
