MILK ACTION BY
HEALTH BOARD
Milk Distributed Here Con-
TainS Too Much Bacteria,
Commissioners Say.

The question of the appearance of
too many bacteria in the milk which
is distributed in this city. was again
taken up by the commissioners at
Board of Health meeting last night
and discussed at great length.
A representative from Reder
Brothers upon summons from the
board appeared last night and at
tempted to make an excuse for the
large bacteria count, but the rea-
sons given were entirely unsatisfac-
tory.
1t was admitted by all the COM
missioners that the standard set here
is higher than any place in the state,
but ii was also agreed that this was
purposely established to insure the
best of milk in the community. At
the next meeting. fresh milk samples
will be distributed to the board and
opinions given as to the cause for
the high bacteria count. Members
of the board also expressed their in
tention of visiting the milk establish
ments here.
The suggestion made at the last
meeting, that some recognition be
taken by the city of the sewers on
several of the streets which run into
deposits exposed, will be furthered
by the board. The committee on
sanitation will investigate the condi-
tion and make a report at the next
meeting.
The resignation of Miss Viola
Petty as a city nurse was accepted
by the board. One fish. three milk
and twelve ice cream licenses were
passed upon.

KEYPORT ROAD
To Be CLOSED
Indications Are That So. AM
boy-Keyport Section of No.
a Route Will be Closed.
BRIDGE TO BE CLOSED
Span Over MataWan Creek
Near Keyport- ---Detour by
Way of MataWan.
BRIDGE TO BE CLOSED

From present indications 1t Is
likely that the keyport-South Am
boy road on the shore highway VIII
be closed for traffic the greater part
of the summer. According to in
formation received today the draw
bridge over the Matawan creek. just
north of Keyport, is to be closed
within a few days, and from that
time until it is opened again the
road will be closed.
Traffic to and from the shore re-
sorts will be detoured through
Cheesequake and Cliffwood via Mat
avian and then back onto the high
way at Keyport. This means a de-
tour of several miles over dirt roads
Already the detour has been marked
ing black lettering and all along the
route have been placed yellow boards
showing a black arrow pointing II
the direction to take.
Matawan, realizing the big in
crease in traffic that will flood its
streets, is already making arrange
ments to station traffic officers at The
corner of Main street and Ravint
Drive to guard against accidents
This is a dangerous corner, due tt
the fact that all the automobile
traffic to Lakewood and Atlantic City
passes the corner and the view IL
either direction is cut off to consid
cradle extent by houses and stores
A trolley operating upon the Mali
street of Matawan adds somewhat t
the danger at this corner. for car
going to and from this city an,
points north and the shore resort
in order to turn the corner must rul
out upon the car tracks.

pairing the Main street through Mat

100 PERSONS CARRYING ON
SALVATION ARMY DRIVE

The industrial depression at this
time is set forth as one of the main
reasons why the Salvation Army
campaign for funds which is being
carried on here this week, should re-
ceive the hearty cooperation of the
community, for hard times, accord
ing to the Army authorities means
more assistance by this organization.
Realizing this situation, a large group
of workers has volunteered to as
sist in the drive. with the result that
at the present time. there are about
100 people giving part of their time
to the Salvation Army. The goal here
is $4,000 by Saturday night and with
hard work, it is felt that there will
be 70 trouble in raising this amount.
Despite the large decrease in the
personnel of the majority of the
plants here, the response thus far
from these sources has been most
encouraging. A chairman establish
ed in each plant is taking care of the
collections while Secretary Oliver
Hatfield of the Industrial Associa
ton is in charge of the entire work
of this department.
Other agencies are answering the
call and with clubs. societies, associa-

terests. the returns are expected to
pour in very soon.
The mayor. who is general chair
man of the drive, urges all the work.

activities.

1t is believed here that DIR. Wirth's
answer to the allied council will be
unconditional acceptance of the

parations would be made that COM

cially on the eastern frontier where
Poles are engaged in a serious in.
surrection with the intention of TAX
ing Upper Silesia.
Since the announcement of the
German ministry there is specula-
tion as to its stability. DR.. Wirth
has been considered an understud,
of Matthias Erzberger former min

determined to carry out the latter's
financial plans which are unpopular
with members of the German peo-
pies party and prominent democrats.
DR.. Wirth assumed the portfolio
of foreign affairs in addition to the
chancellorship. but it is understood
he may retire from the conduct OF
Germany's relation with other coun-
tries.

ministry might not be selected until
after acceptance of the allied terms.
