so. AMBOY FIREMEN AGAIN
CALLED FOR DUMP BLAZE
IRy Evening News CORRESPONDENT

[By Evening News Correspondent
SOUTH AMBOY, June 22.-The
fire department yesterday was once
more called out on a foolish errand.
For the fifth time within a week
they were called to extinguish a blaze
in the city's garbage dump. me
firemen are pretty much discourage
ed as the result of this seeming neg
lect con somebody's part" 1t has
been pointed out that many of the
firemen make great sacrifices to re-
spond to all alarms. 1t has been suS-
gested hat immediate steps be taken
by the city fathers to prevent a re-
currence of this nuisance. In other
cities men are stationed at the dumps
to prevent such occurrence. In other
cities the garbage is burned on ar
rival at the dumping ground. In
order to keep up the spirit of the
firemen it would be necessary to take
some action at this time.
