PROFITEERING ACTION ASKED
BY GOVERNOR OF PROSECUTOR
BD Special coresp~ ndent.


TRENTON, April IA. - Declaring
that "proflteering" has caused a con-
dition of social unrest in parts of the
state, Governor Edwards today asked
each county prosecutor in the state to
call into session his grand jury for the
purpose of investigating the guilty
ones.
Much discomfort Is caused by the
belief among the people of limited
means that they are being exploited
by those who are commonly called
'profiteers," said Mr.. Edwards TO
the prosecutors. But, who should
better be known as extortioners."
1.-THE prices of foods stuff, wearing
apparel and housing Is so high as to
be a menace to social peace. IL such
extortioners are responsible for this
discomfort, such extortion can be end
ed by an Independent and vigorous
enforcement of the criminal laws. No
new law Is needed, but enforcement
of the old law will end this discon-
tent. 1 therefore, request to have the
grand jury of our counties be called
to investigate social 'proflteering' con-
ditions in your community and speed
lily see that the guilty are punished
as a means of promoting respect for
law on which the security Of the state
depends"

ALREADY
To CLEAN Up"
Health Officer Aims to Have
Lot of Work Done in That
Direction Before Crusade


The report Of Health Officer William
Thompson, that he has already taken
steps to get as much as possible of the
city cleaned UP before clean up week
met with the hearty approval of the
entire board. DIR. Thompson said that
conditions were greatly improved last
week, as the result of these activities.
and much of the garbage and rubbish
that can be gathered together at this
time. has already been put out ana
carried away. DIR. Thompson claimed
that there was not ample time In the
one week, to dispose of all the refuse
which has accumulated during the
year, and for this reason he Is urging
every possible means of cleaning up
the minor mess before clean Up
Week.
A serious question raised last night
was the housing of pigs on several
properties. Upon notification from the
Board of Health some time ago the
slaughter house owners were told to
dispose the pigs which were kept
in the pen built in connection with
the establishment. 1t seemed to be
difference of opinion as TO whether or
not the pigs were all disposed of.
During the discussion there arose the
question of the housing of pigs at the
present time on the Mullen's Spring
Water property on New Brunswick
avenue. One member of the board
maintained that swine were being kept
in close proximity to the spring and
that the pen was n higher level
than the water supply. Along with
this, it was found that there has been
no license issued for keeping pigs on
the Mullen property. This matter
will receive the immediate attention
of the authorities.
Another favorable report was con-
cerning the baby clynic at the Cora
immunity House on Johnstone street. IT
was unanimously agreed that this is
the very best place for an institution
Of this kind, being more centrally To-
Gated than the one in this section,
and being located In the district where
the aid given by such clynic is most
needed. The activities, social and edu-
cational, at this center. seem to be
a great advertisement for the clynic
and a great number of women have
become familiar with the place.
A motion was passed to remind the
Board of Aldermen of the former
communication from the health de-
partment in regard to the repairing OF
certain cesspools. If immediate ac-
tion IS not taken. the Board Of Health
insists that these cesspools must be
filled up.
A lengthy copy OF the new y.ate
laws, governing midWtVes was aeard
at its first reading last night. After
the third reading, when the body
adopts these new regulations, the
midwiyes will be not only under the
supervision of the state nurse, but of
the department of the Board of
Health here. Many violations of the
law on the part of local midwives
were reported, which demonstrate the
great necessity of stricter laws gov
erning them. When this new ordi-
nance is passed. any city nurse win
have the right to examine any mid
wife and her kit at any time.
