NEW BUILDING
At HIGH SCHOOL
Aldermen Pass Ordinance for
$4,000 Bond Issue to Pay
for Addition
WORK TO START SOON
Board of Education to Receive
Bids Monday Night adds
4 More Rooms

The aldermen last night passed
upon first reading an ordinance au-
thorizing a bond issue of $4,000 to
pay the cost of constructing an ad-
dition to the high school. This ac-
ton was taken by the aldermen fol-
lowing receipt of a copy of a reso-
luton passed by the Board of School
Estimate at a special meeting held
Thursday afternoon in which that
body set upon $4,000 as the amount
necessary to complete this work.
This matter has been hanging fire
for several months, the Board of
Education having endeavored to Sc
cure from the city sufficient funds
t. erect a new school in addition to
the high school extension. The
Board Of School Estimate, however,
failed to authorize the building of
the new school giving as its reason
lack of sufficient funds and means
of raising the necessary amount for
the new building.
New School Wanted
The School Estimate Board has
favored the high school from the
early part of the year, but the
school board has continued to re-
quest that body for the new school
as WELL Finally it was decided that
one new school would be better
than none and the deadlock was
broken.
The school board will hold a meet
ing Monday night at which time bids
on the new high school addition will
be received. The plans have been
drawn by j. Noble Pierson & Son,
and upon completion the local school
will be among the largest in the
state.
To Build on North Side
The new addition will be con-
structed on the north side of the
present building and will correspond
with the south wing. built several
years ago. The new addition will
be fifty-eight by seventy-four feet
and two stories high. The interior
of the new addition will differ con-
siderably from the interior of the
south wing. The new addition will
be built on the same level as the
original school, thus doing away with
the stairway which connects the
south wing with the main building.
There will be four class rooms in
the new addition and in addition
large room on the first floor fifty
four by thirty feet to be used for do
mestic science, a similar room on
the second floor to be used as school
library, a nurses room on the second
floor and a teachers room on the
irst floor.
To Add Sixty Rooms
The basement will be of sufficient
size to permit of a large class room
which can be used for prevocat1onal
training, being fitted up if needed.
The fireproof addition will be heat
ed and ventilated by the multiple
unit system. Upon completion the
building will have sixty rooms, forty
of which will be Gloss rooms.
The city comptroller was last
night instructed by the aldermen to
advertise for bids for the sale and
removal of the city sheds now sit
uated on the property on which the
new addition will be erected. The
successful bidder must remove these
sheds within ten days after the con-
tract is awarded.

In response to a question as to the
probability of juries composed of
women being more easily Influenced
by eloquent lawyers. Mrs. Green
baum replied that she believed that
some lawyers would be able to move
their feminine juries momentarily,
but that when the time came for the
decision the women would be able to
give calm and clear judgments at
least equal to verdicts returned by
men.
II think many women are cap
able of considering such matters
from more than one angle, even more
capable than men," Mrs. Greenbaum
continued. and ended her statement
by reiterating her willingness to
serve, even though not particularly
anxious for the chance.
Mrs. Buckley Speaks.
Mrs. Buckley, who lives at 219
New Brunswick avenue, when re-
quested for her views of women
serving on juries said:
Public affairs should be left to
the men, but as long as 1 have been
called upon I will do my duty al
though I think that woman's place
is with her duties at home. I am
not a strong advocate of women vot-
ing and think that all these things
should be left to the men. I do not
think women serving on juries will
prove very successful"

GAMING
At CARNIVAL
Chief Tonnesen Found Wheel
Operating in Violation
of the Law

Chief of Police Niels j. Tonnesen
la : night interfered with the opera
ton of wheels of chance and other
gambling devices for the third time
this week when he visited the carni-
val grounds and put a stop to a
wheel found to be operating in vio-
lation of the law.
The device in question consisted
of an arrow revolving upon full
crum over board upon which were
located a number of nails. Various
prizes were attached to the nails
and the stopping point Of the arrow
determined the winner. The chief
maintained that the players had no
control over the spinning wheel and
therefore the contrivance was in
violation of the law.
The operators OF the contrivance
were ordered to cease their activi-
ties and warned that further infrac-
tion would lead to their arrest and
prosecution.

CARS CRASH On On
BR|DGE;4HU HURT
Two in Hospital, Following
Collision Injuries Not Sc
riouS--No Arrests

Two persons were admitted to the
city hospital for treatment and two
others were slightly hurt in an au-
tomobile crash occurring on the
county bridge shortly after IL
o'clock this morning when two ma
chimes collided near the Perth AM
boy end of the structure.
Immediately after the collision
Officer William Seiboth was sum
moned to the scene. His investiga-
ton brought out that the car driven
by Edward j. O'Connor, OF South
Amboy, had gotten out of control
after the breaking of the steering
gear had rendered it useless. In
able to guide the machine O'Connor
crashed into the car going in the
opposite direction. The second car
was driven by George E. Velte, of
2O15 Anthony avenue, the Bronx,
New York. The windshield of both
automobiles were shattered and n.y.
ing glass was responsible Tor most
of the injuries, although all the par
Elephants were badly bruised and
shaken up.
The injured are: Edward OCon-
nor, South Amboy, cuts about the
head and severe bruises; Peter
Grover, of South Amboy, cuts about
the face and arms; George e. Velte,
New York, broken nose and bruises:
and Mrs. Ida Velte. who sustained
injuries to the kneecap and bruises
about the leg. Mr.. and Mrs. Velte
were removed to the City Hospital
where they were attended by DR..
Martin S. Meinzer.
Convinced that the mishap was
purely accidental officer Seiboth
made no arrests in the case.

PEACE ACTION
Up To THE DALI
Proposed Conference With
British is to Come Before
the Irish Parliament

LONDON, Sept. 10.-Premier
Lloyd Georges invitation to Eamon
deValera and colleagues to confer
as to a basis for a settlement of the
Irish controversy, must await action
by the Irish republican parliament.
That body will meet in secret ses-
sion Wednesday at which time it is
assured by the premiers latest note
to Dublin will be submitted, and a
decision reached as to rejection or
acceptance of the invitation.
Powers For De Valera.
1t was understood when the re-
publican parliament adjourned at
Dublin recently it had conferred
plenary powers on Mr.. deValera and
his colleagues. The note from Mr..
Lloyd George is asserted to have
brought factor into the situation
which made it necessary for the
parliament to meet and widen the
scope of the mandates it gave its
leaders.
The members of the parliament
took the oath of allegiance as to the
Irish republic and government of the
Irish republic and pledged themselves
not to yield voluntary support to
any pretended government authority
or power within Ireland, hostile or
inimical thereto"
See No Separation.
Thus it would appear the condition
precedent that there could be no
separation of Ireland from the Brit
ish empire, laid down by Lloyd
George would in effect call on Mr..
deVaIera and members of the min
istry creatures of the parliament. to
recognize government, authority
or power" in Ireland other than that
of the Dali Eireann If they accepted
the invitation.
1t would also seem they must be
especially empowered to meet the
premier on the basis laid down in
his latest note.

| indemnity at a certain sum and the
next month the London conference
changed the amount.
Neither of these sums tailed with
that fixed two months later by the
Reparation Commission in the dis
charge of its duty under the Ver-
sailles treaty, which latter amount
was accepted by the allied govern
ments as well as by Germany.
AS to the question of disarmament
of Germany, which was continually
coming before these premier meet
ings, only partial success was OBJ
tanned.
Other Commissions
The armies of occupation, which
were forcibly to guarantee the state
of peace as against Germany, pre-
supposed the Allied Rhineland COM
mission. This commission was cre-
ated for the purpose of governing,
in conjunction with the German civil
authorities, the occupied territory.
For the purpose of disarming
Germany and rendering her militia
rily helpless until the full demands
of the treaty have been met. three
commissions of control were estab-
!ished, namely, the naval, military
and aeronautical commissions.
Not only was Germany required
to surrender her navy and merchant
marine, but she was also required
to give up almost her entire river
fleets For this purpose the Danube
commission was created with an
American arbitrator as stipulated by
the treaty.
A further commission, called the
Governing commission, was created
by the treaty to govern the Saar
Valley, which was delivered to
France for a period of Is years In
compensation for the destruction of
the coal mines of northern France.
Reparation Commission
But the chief of all these commits
sions. and the only one that will
have a continuous existence until
| the full demands of the treaty have
been met Ga period assumed by the
treaty to be 80 years., is the Repara-
ton commission. 1t has the widest
| jurisdiction and holds within it's
! hands the economic survival or in
dustrial death of the German peo-
| pie.
There are many other commits
sions such as Supreme Council, the
Ambassadors Council, the Interna-
| tional Credits Association, the ST.
lesian Plebiiscite Commission, ad in
| finitum.
American Prestige
While the United States has held
only watching brief at these vari-
Gus conferences, her representatives
have perhaps exercised as much or
more influence than any of the other
| powers. and she is certainly in a IA
vored position to avoid the snares
and pitfalls of long drawn out
| conference. made indefinite and in

ago for the reason that he proposes

suit not simply in the discussion and
expression of pious wishes concern

| ference of deeds and render real
| service to the tax-burdened nations

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1o-The
forthcoming conference of Limita-
ton of Armaments owes its birth TO
the failure of the United States to
join the League of Nations.
The Treaty OF Versailles was
supposed to provide for the settle
ment of all the issues growing out
of the war.
Instead of having such salutary
result, however, 1t provided only a
basis upon which other conferences
could operate.
Our allies in the late war have
struggled with the question of dis
armament, German indemnity and
political boundaries arising from the
ALLEGATION of territories, through a
series of conferences, which have
ruled the world since the armistice.
At the Washington conference it
is to be hoped that the invited major
powers-Grea. Britain, France, ia
pan and Italy-having participated
in this endless confusion of confer
ences in Europe, will profit by pre-
vious failures and provide a prac-
ticable means for enforcing any de-
cisions that may be rearced mot
simply lay the foundation for COM
nlSSlOn-rlQQen agreement.
Fifteen Conferences
Since the coming into force of the
peace treaty there have been held
in Europe is conferences of the pre-
miers of Great Britain, France, Italy
and Belgium.
The first conference was held in
London in February, 1920. 1t was
