NEED contributions
TO make CONCERT DAY
HERE Big SUCCESS

The joint committee, representing
the Rotary and Lion Clubs in charge
of the Visit Perth Amboy Day eeie-
bration which is scheduled for Sep
ten ber 27 and which will be featur-
ed by a concert by the United States
Marine Band, urges that contribu-
ticns to finance the event be sent i'll
as soon as possible. The aim of the
committee at this time Is to obtain
enough money not only to meet all
bills incurred by the plans for the
day, but also to pay off the debt of
the Boy Scouts and place this or
ganization again on it's feet.
Today 1t was learned that the Wis
it of the band and the plans made
for the day is creating more of
sensation in the city than anything
that has taken place in several
years. Everyone seems anxious and
willing to get behind the movement
and indications are that the event
will be even greater than was anti
cipated.
The design for the program has
been completed and as all the ad-
vertising has been taken, the book
will go to press today. This program
will contain valuable information, in
Guiding a history of the city and a
list of places of historical interest
to visit.
1t is likely that within a few days
the decorating of the business houses
of the city will begin. 1t is estimated
that it will take atIeast a week to
completely decorate the entire city
with flags and bunting in keeping
with the occasion. From indications
at this time the city will be a mass
of national colorS when the decora-
tors are finished. thus giving it one
of the most beautiful appearances
in it's entire history.
Efforts will be made to have di-
rect trolley and bus connections to
various points imm mediately after the
evening concert. If plans now under

AS the italian colony at Cliffwood
was holding celebration many per-
sons viewed the accident and they
marveled at the fact that both were
not killed outright. The train that
struck the automobile runs Saturday
only and was making great speed
on the straight track which leads
from Morgan to Matawan. A doctor
who was passenger on the train
rendered first aid and accompanied
the girl and her father to the hospi-
tai. The first northbound train was
stopped and Silver and his daughter
placed aboard and taken to Perth
Amboy where an ambulance met
the train and took them to the hos
pital.

DECIDES PACKERS
PRACTICE ILLEGAL

Secretary Wallace has decided that
the alleged practice of the Fowler
Packing Company forbidding certain
designated" shippers to encroach
upon the buying territory of other
shippers is illegal under the Packers
and Stockyards' act.
The decision was rendered in the
case OF the Kansas City Live Stock
Exchange versus Armour and Com
pany and the Fowler Packing Com
pany. owners Of the Mistletoe Stock
yards at Kansas City. Kan.
Secretary Wallace decided the
Mistletoe Stockyards did not come
under the definition of the term
"stockyard" as defined in the act, In
that it is not operated for "compensa-
tion or profit as public market" and
therefore dismissed charges under
Title 3 of the Act.
