ties, has during his visit to Danzig
established u central organization for
a World Pogrom Defence committee

RATHEN.AU ASSASSINS GET
LIGHT SENTENCES
Murder Instincts Reused by Ant.

Mother Writes Forgiveness.

Ct. c. b. Service)
JSerlin,-The comparatively light sen
! fences of the assassins of DIR. Walter
eign Minister. have caused widespread
comment in the German press.
Particular attention has been at
tracted by the statement of the presi
dent of the cour. who. in passing the
sentences said that ''behild the Rath-
cnau murder was fanatical anti
semitism, which found expression in
the libeious legend about the Elders of
Zion This has engendered murderous
instincts in the hearts of men. May
Rathenau's martyr death purify the
poisoned atmosphere"
The most touching episode of the
murder trial was the letter of Frau
Mathilde Rathenau. the murdered
mans mother. to Fran Techow. moth
er of the self-confessed accomplice.
Tell your son that in the name and
spirit of the murder l forgive him as
God may forgive him provided he
makes full. frank confession before
earthly justice and rues his deed at
the bar of heaven. Had he known
my son, the noblest of men on earth.
he would sooner have pointed his muir
derous weapon at himself than at my
son.
Ernest Werner TechOw. who drove
the automobile from which the assis-
sins fired. was sentenced to fifteen
years imprisonment. with subsequent
loss of his rights as a citizen for ten
years. His brother. Hans Gerd Techow
got OFF with four, Guenther with eight
and Won Salomon with five years.
The court sentenced Ilsemann to
three years for having in his posses
sion in violation of the disarmament
ordinances. Tillessen, brother of Err
berger's fugitive murderer. got three
years for not failing to inform the
authorities about the murder plot.

Girls Win Aid In Putting Roll
Cali Over The Top
Here

Probably the shot that will send

Miss Claire Pfeifer VIII turn out to
every nook and corner of the city

The girls are being so arranged
that each will work only few
hours, and have been assigned diff
ferent streets TO patrol. Mrs.
Charles Seguine, secretary of the
Roll Call, would like to hear from
some adult workers, as well as some
young girls, to take part in the work
On Saturday. They will also be as
signed certain streets and will not

Any one wishing TO help, will send
their name to the secretary at head
quarters, and also name the hours
when they wish to do their part.
Saturday will mark the third

FLAMES ARE CHECKED
Storage House of U. S. Cart
ridge Company Adloins
Building Which Burned

Fire, famed by a strong north
wind, last night for time threaten
| ed to do considerable damage to
the plants of the United Lead Works
| located in the Maurer section of
Perth Amboy, but efficient work by
the fire fighters confined the flames
to one building of the Hoyt Metal
Company.
First intimation of fire was given
by the continuous blowing of the
plant whistle which attracted the at
tention of many firemen before the
fire alarm was turn d in from box
So at Maurer. The fire had gained
considerable headway when discov-
cred and the flames could be seen
for a considerable distance.
During the first few minutes after
the sounding of the alarm, the fire
seemed to be assuming such propor-
tons as to equal that of the blaze
several months ago, in which sew
eral of the large white lead depart
ment buildings were destroyed. The
work of rebuilding these structures
has not yet been completed, but IS
well under way.
The building in which the fire was
discovered last night is located next
to the huge building of the U. s.
Cartridge Company, in which great
supplies of loaded cartridges are
stored.
Owing to the location of the Hoyt
Metal building along the Staten Is
land Sound shore, the glare from the
burning building attracted the atten
ton of hundreds in Staten Island.
Poor water pressure handicapped
the firemen upon their arrival and
owing to the darkness, there being
practically no lights about the plant,
it was with difficulty that hydrants
were located and the lines of hose
were run down to the scene of the
blaze.
When the city firemen arrived the
entire roof of the structure was
ablaze the heat having broken the
windows in the skylight along the
entire top of the building and a
strong draft carried the flames
through the roof and high into the
air.
The fact that the building was OF
fireproof construction, with the ex-
ception of the pine boards in the
roof under the corrugated iron outer
roof, was in a large degree respons-
ible for the checking of the flames.
The stock inside the building was
not damaged, the flames being con-
fined to the wooden work in the
roof.

HARTMAN SUES
FOR BACK PAY
Former Detective Starts Suit
Against City For $500
Papers Are Served

A suit for $500 damages, covering
back pay which he claims is due
him for the three months when he
was suspended from the police force
awaiting trial, has been started in
the. local district court. by Willial.l
Hartman against the. City of Perth
Anboy. Leo Lowenkopf Is repre-
senting the former, detective in this
action against the city.
The case is the outcome of Hart
mans being suspended from the po-
lice force on March 20, 1920, when
he was one of several defendants in
cases resulting from the vice clean
up" conducted that winter in Perth
Amboy.
In his suit against the city Hart
man asks $500 representing back
pay from March 20, 1920 to June
20, 1920, at the rate of S166.60 per
month. He claims that when he
was a member of the police force he
was without any written charge or
charges being made against him and
without fair trial." removed from
the force, suspended and prevented
from performing his duties. The
governing body refused to pay him
for the three months he was not
permitted to continue his duties.
Hartman claims, and therefore de-
'mands $500 as back pay.
The papers in the suit have been
served upon City Clerk Arthur e.
Graham and the matter will no
doubt be taken up at once by the
aldermen and referred to the city
attorney for action.

DORSEY HEADS
MOVEMENT To
BUILD UP CITY
Former Mayor Points To
Need For Plants Employing
Some Skilled Labor
WAY TO BOOST CITY
We Educate Young People,
They Go Elsewhere To
Earn Living

The most important problem fac-
ing the city of Perth Amboy today,
former Mayor Frank Dorsey told
members of the Lions Club at .heii
weekly luncheon today, is the lack
of industries employing semi-skilled
labor and business houses in which
the younger generation might find
employme ment without being forced to
go elsewhere.
The industries now located here
treat their labor well and pay good
wages, Mr.. Dorsey said,. but there
are not enough concerns in the city
to give employment to the large
number of semi-skilled workers
available. In 1913 when he was the
mayor. he said, there were 4,53p
semi-slSilled workers available but
there were openings for only 2.00e,
many of which were for common
laborers.
Semi-skilled laborers cannot be
expected to be satisfied doing COM
mon laborer's work, the speaker
said, but the scarcity of such work
makes it necessary for many exp eri-
enced men to take whatever posi-
lions they can find. as in most cases
tiley have families to support.
Speaking of the younger genera
ton Mr.. Dorsey emphasized the big
problem which the lack of openings
for these young men and women
in Perth Amboy presents. The resi-
dents of this city are paying thou
sands of dollars. annually in taxes
for schools, the speaker said, for the
purpose of educating the sons and
daughters of those men who are
employed in the industries of this
city. When they graduate they are
unable to find employment here and
go elsewhere to work. earning their
living there and, in most cases,
spending their money in places
other than Perth Amboy, Mr..
Dorsey said.
This condition should be rene
died by a concerted move on the
part of influential persons to bring
about the opening of new industries
here, the speaker declared He told
of the efforts being made by the
Y. M. c. A.. the Y. M. Fl A, the
knights of Columbus and similar
associations to give the younger peo-
pie the type of recreation conducive
to good citizens, but he said, this
work will be largely for naught if
whereby these young men and wo-
men will be kept in the city.
A resolution by Albert Leon that
the Lions Club pledge its support
to a movement having in view the
investigation of conditions and the
establishment of new industries en-
ploying semi-skilled labor in Perth
Amboy was unanimously adopted
and Mr.. Dorsey was designated as
the man who should head the COM
mittee in charge of this progressive
step.
The talk of the ex-mayor was re-
ceived with enthusiasm by the Lions
and spirited discussion between
members followed. The meeting
was well attended.
Thomas Layden was chairman of
today's meeting, the largest attend
ance in several weeks proving the
popularity of the weekly luncheons
and interest shown in the topics up
for discussion.
