HOW TO BEAT THE DEATH RATE.

There now occur annually in the United
states about 1.25o.ooo deaths. And the surgeon
r.nerar Of the Public Health Service, H. 5.
Cummings is authority for the assertion Of this
number 100, 1000 could be prevented easily by
,hs application of available medical knowl-
.dse." The saving of 100000 lives in a year
means much. 1t means as many people as all
who live in such cities as elizabeth. a couple OF
perth Ampoys. Trenton and Camden. Some
thing really worth while.
The surgeon general declares nearly everyone
of the $4,000 deaths from diphtheria could be
prevented IL anti-toxin treatment were resort
cd to. or permit those susceptible to diphtheria
as shown by cultures to be immunized. He says
that nearly all OF 10000 deaths a year from
typhoid fever could be prevented IL m
ties would only be sure that their milk and
water supplies are pure. and if but the simplest
precautions were taken in home where typhoid
4. found. OF the 400 deaths from smallpox in
the year. he declares all could have been saved
had each been vaccinated.
THE expense of this life saving through pre-
vention and control of disease is slight" Sur
reon General Cummings says, when contrasted
with the saving affected. Money spent In this
direction is a most profitable form OF invest
ment, a most urgent need OF this reconstruction
period"
The surgeon general only reiterates what hun
dreds of practicing physicians have said time
and again in their fight for the public health.

MORE MONEY FOR CITY PLAN.

For the purpose Of giving the public a chance
TO express their opinion on the city budget for
next year as tentatively drawn up by the Board
of Aldermen a public hearing will be held on
the matter at the next meeting Of the board to
be held January II.
No doubt the aldermen have given consider
able study TO the subject and the budget is. In
their opinion. the best that can be arranged
under the circumstances. especially in view of
the universal demand that the tax rate be kept
down. However, there may be some sugges-
tons that the taxpayers might offer that would
be gladly received by the aldermen. After all.
the aldermen are the servants of the people and
each taxpayer has a right to be heard on any
item that is included in the budget.
The one item in the budget that interests the
EVENING NEWS the most at this particular
time and which we believe to be Of vital i'm
portance to the city, is that providing for the
city plan. When the money that was appro-
priated for city plan last year was taken for
other purposes a few months ago it was stated
that an increased appropriation would be pro-
vided this year so that the time lost last year
would not be entirely wasted. The aldermen
have failed to make good in this respect. The
appropriation this year is exactly the same as
last year.
Now that a commission has been appointed to
handle this fund and go ahead with a city plan
they ought, at least, to have money enough to
do something worth while. Expert engineers
in any kind of municipal work command big
pay. We had a striking illustration of what
planning costs when the water board had a
comprehensive plan made of the entire water
shed that is to supply Perth Amboy with water
for years to come. Today the water board is
in a position to go ahead with its development
knowing exactly what 1t is doing. Each move
made is a part OF the entire scheme of develop
ment.
The same thing will be found true of a city
plan. But a paltry 81. 800 is not going to get us
very far. Already a year has been lost and I'M
less more money is provided very little can be
accomplished during the coming year. This is
a matter that means so much to the future of
the city, especially when big Developments are
being pressed upon us from all sides, that the
aldermen ought to strain a point. IL necessary,
TO give the city plan commission a sufficient
fund to actually show some results.
1t is to be hoped, therefore. that before the
budget ordinance is finally passed the appro-
priation for the city plan will be substantially
There is no way in which the city's
money can be spent at this time that will mean
more for the city in the future than for a city
plan.

RIPPING RHYMES
BY Walt Mason.
A SUNLESS WORLD.

Reformers are not satisfied with merely
moderate success; If any triumph is denied,
they wiring their hands in black distress. The
victory of yesterday forgotten is, as soon as
won. while they plan out some drastic way
to make another evil run. The trimming
fagon they have strapped, and now they say
the pipe must go; an earnest campaign has
been mapped, to fill Dame Nicotine with
woe. The Sunday train must cease to run
before we've scored another year, or some
reformer with a gun will rise and shoot the
engineer. The Sunday paper must be BAN
ned, on Sundays autos must not chug, or
sheriffs. with their writs in hand, will
put offenders in the jug. They'll censor
songs they'll censor plays, they'll censor
everything in sight, and strive, in forty-seven
ways, to drape us all in snowy white. They
will not interfere with me, for I'm so moral.
anyhow; a shining halo you may see at any
time above my brow. But much / fear some
wearied guys. by laws CALLED, jaded and OPP
pressed, in revolution yet will rise, and
knock some statutes galley west. Reformers
now are going strong. they look as though
they'd never stop: but when Reaction comes
along, just pause and hear the fireworks pop.

DANGER AT

The accident at the Central station wednes-
day night when an incoming train hit a truck
loaded with mail and baggage that had just
been taken off another train that had come In
Just previously. calls attention to the dangerous
condition that exists at the station because of
lack OF protection between the two tracks.
This is not the first mishap of this kind and
the wonder Is that q serious accident has not
occurred. Only recently a north bound train
ran past the station while a train was standing
on the south bound track unloading passengers
who were alighting directly in the path of the
northbound train. Several persons had narrow
escapes at that time and only avoided being hit
BY standing close up against the train from
which they had just aiighted until the other
train had passed.
The traffic at the station in Perth Amboy has
entirely out-grown the present Anticipated
structure and. OF course. we all know that the
real solution Is a new station. But that is an
othsr story. The main thing today is to make
the present station safe. This could be done by
providing a platform on the west side OF the
track and building a fence between the two
tracks so that people could not step off Of one
train directly in the path OF another.
This arrangement IL provided at all stations
where there is a great deal of travel and where
there are double tracks. II might be a little
more inconvenient for the passengers, especially
those who live east of the tracks and who
would be compelled to alight on the west side
and wait until the train had pulled out of the
way before being able to proceed. A little in
convenience is to be rfeferred, however, to the
danger Of being killed.
Because engineers sometimes make mistakes

O. Are cells native to fresh water
or salt water?-J. Z.
A. The life history OF the eel Is
very remarkable and in some cases
unique. During the spring and early
summer, thousands of young cells
several inches long migrate up rivers
from the sea and distribute them
selves throughout every accessible
body of water. whatever its size or
character, frequently travelling over
land to reach these. Here they re-
main concealed in the mud or be-
meath stones and feed on all kinds
of animal matter, living and dead.
Many eels appear never to leave the
fresh waters in which they have de-
veloped, but most of them after sew
eral years, return to the sea and en-
ter comparatively deep water. where
sexual maturity and spawning takes
place.
@. Is there a prophecy anywhere
in the Bible that the Jews will yet
inhabit Palestine ?-J. C. ].
A. The Old Testament contains
many prophecies which Jews con-
strue to mean the final gathering of
the race in Palestine, such as Jere-
miah IL; jeremiah ~3:16-1s: Hag-
gal 2:6-1O; Malachi 81.
Q. What constitutes a first class
post Office and how many are there
in the United States?-D. d. A.

where the gross receipts total $780,
600 or over. There are 700 first
class post Offices in the United
States.

and Rome had numerous noted his
torians.
@. How did the term Kaiser
originate ?-D. H. A.
A. Both Kaiser" and Gear
were derived from the Latin name,
Caesar.
Q. Why is brown rice higher in
price than polished rice?-E. B.
A. The Department of Agriculture
says that there are several reasons
why brown rice is not sold cheaply.
In the first place the millers have
expensive machinery installed for
removing the bran and polishing the
grain and they claim 1t is no saving
to them not to have to use this
machinery. The bran-the cuticle
and embryo-contains fat, and this
becomes rancid after a time SO that
the brown rice has not the lasting
properties of polished rice and must
be sold in a comparatively short
time. Brown rice is said to be more
liable to attack by insects.
Q. How long does a copyright
run? Can it be renewed Pm z.
A. The duration of a copyright Is
ordinarily 20 years. though 1t can
be renewed for a further period of
rs years. Upon the expiration of
this time, the material passes into
the public domain.
