FOR A GOOD START.

The new Chamber of Commerce
is going to be exactly what it's men,
make 1t. So often we hear the
that there would be no
trouble getting members and keeping
them interested If the chamber
would only do something.
But a Chamber of Commerce is not
a machine that can be wound up and
then left to run itself for a time, pro-
ducing results without further atten-
ton. A Chamber Of Commerce Is an
organization composed of men and
women who are supposed to be in
terested in the advancement of their
city. They are the chamber and
when they are active the chamber is
active; when they produce results as
an organization the chamber pro-
duces results: when they are cold and
disinterested the chamber will re-
meet the Sdflo dttituue.
Blanks have been sent out for the
members to nominate the men they
favor for managing the new chamber
and to direct it's affairs. These
blanks should be considered in all
seriousness. Study the membership
list carefully and pick out earnest
men; capable men: men who can be

PUBLIC OPINION
THE HOUSING PROBLEM.

EDITOR EVENING JEWS:
The housing situation has become
so serious that 1t is now the para
mount question OF the people and
their representatives as to how re-
lief can be had. and the people have
a right to ask the candidates for
ONCE what consideration they have
given this subject.
What has been done in this state
to improve the housing condition i?
The exemption of a tax on new
buildings for FIVE years Is some en-
couragement but too small to be con-
sidered q relief!
Mr.. Untermeyer, the eminent New
York lawyer who has offered his SER
vices in an effort to ameliorate the
housing condition in his state, makes
the suggestion;
That-savings banks and life in
surance companies holding the pub
lies money in trust should be com
PEELED by law to invest part of their
finvestable income in real estate
mortgages which he claims are safer
than stocks and bonds.
Mr.. Untermeyer, also suggests a ban
be put on the export of building ma
terial until prices and supplies be-
come normal at home. He believes
a criminal conspiracy exists among
dealers in building material and
stands for an investigation along
these lines.
Mr.. Untermeyer, also would have a
state bipartisan trade commission of
six members SO appointed as to be
removed as far as possible from poll
teal influence. This commission
would have full control of trade. and
business of building material. This
would prevent a combination in re-
straint of trade and price fixing.
But-the state of New York has
made a failure of this question by
hastily enacting laws that lawyers
could pick holes in, and judges give
conflicting decisions, result chaos.
This would not have happened II
they had been duly considered before
passing same. .
Now l believe this great state Of
ours has men and women big enough
to handle this question successfully
and without making tho same fnis-
take.
Germany and England. though
they have much weightier questions
to consider in the reimbursement of
conditions than we; are far ahead of
us in solving the housing question,
though they have been in a similar
condition for homes for their people.
II mortgage money was made easy
and exempt from federal tax for a
time it would be a great step In ad-
vance and encourage building.
Let us send men to senate and as
sembly big enough to lead, not fol-
low.
A. N. CLEAvER.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1920-10-21

offered in the senate by Senator
Hitchcock, the leader of the admins
traton forces, which was to the
effect that each member nation is
free to accept or reject the "ad-
vice" given by the council in ac-
cordance with the provisions of that
article, "snd in the United States this
advice a only be accepted by action
of congress under our constitution"
Concerning this reservation offer
ed by Senator Hitchcock, President
Wilson wrote on February Z. 1920:
Il am happy to add, therefore, that I
have once more gone over the reser-
vations prepared by yourself, a copy
of which I return herewith, and I am
glad to say 1 can accept them as they
stand"
Besides disposing Of the canard
that President Wilson insisted that
the covenant of the league be adopt
ed as written even to the dot of an
cps and cross of a at" IL shows that
the President was even willing to ac-
cept reservations to Article X. The
main difference was a partisan one.
The senate would not give an inch
to the President and the President
was just as defiant toward the senate.
Thus they became deadlocked while
the nation and the whole world suf-
.fered.
The constitution provides that the
senate as well as the President shall
have a part in all treaty making. 1t
is therefore necessary for these two
branches of the government to get
together. 1t became evident before
congress adjourned that this was i'm
possible as matters stood. The feeling
was too bitter, one toward the other.
Senator Root. in his speech in New
York. Tuesday night, shows the way.
1t means the entrance Of the United
States into the League Of Nations, but
with such reservations as will uphold
American ideals and principles. Many
believe that these were adequately
safeguarded in the covenant as it
came from Paris, but as long as the
league Is not weakened there can be
no objections to reservations that
only make all the more clear what is
already in the covenant.
The point is, the Republican party,
through its most noted representa-
tive. recognizes the fact that the
American people earnestly wish for
an organization among civilized ma
lions through which the nations shall
cooperate to prevent future wars.
and that the United States shall do
her full share in that organization"
Having openly recognized this, what
could be more logical than that the
new administration, should it be Re-
publican, will begin at once to nego-
tiate to enter the league that is al
ready organized and at work, and in
the formation of which Elihu Root
has played an important part
through his services in assisting to
get the international court establish
ed? This is what we firmly believe
will happen. AS to who gets the
credit for this great step forward in
the advancement of civilization, that
may safely be left for history to de-
termine.

HEALTH ADVICE
Corns and Calluses.\

Calluses result from pressure;
unlike corns, they have no core
They are merely thickened skin.
Corns may be treated with
salicylic acid applications, but
owing to the changed structure Of
the skin composing them they
tend to reform even If the pres
sure is relieved.
soft corns' between the toes
are of an entirely different ma
ture. They al be rendered less
troublesome by bathing the feet In
alcohol or salt water. Sometimes
they demand a small but delicate
surgical operation for removal.
In the treatment of corns and
calluses a good chiropodist will US
ually obtain excellent results. Dut
one should make certain that the
chiropodist understands his work
and is scrupulously clean. In old
people or those whose circulation
or general strength is poor. and
especially in those with diabetes.
such work should be undertaken
only with great caution, and In all
cases, il there Is any doubt about
the patients condition, the family
doctor should be consulted. The re-
suits of carelessness and incompet-
ence are often disastrous.

/. would be harmful to take, as 1t
was recommended to me to reduce

A. Treatment with thyroid
glands Is used in a small group Of
cases of obesity, but such treat
ment must always be under the
control of q qualified physician.
Thyroid gland is a very dangerous
substance when used by one who
is not a physician. and I would
strongly urge you not to treat
yourself with this substance. II
