AID TO EUROPE
SEEMS ASSURED
PROPOSAL MADE BY U. S. TO
SOLVE GERMAN
DEBT.
PLAN To MEET CRISIS
COMMISSION TO BE APPOINTED
TO FIX AMOUNT OF
PREPARATIONS.

Washington.-A plan under which
an American commission would deter
mine how much Germany should be re-
quired TO pay the allies in reparadons
has emerged from the effort to find
way for extending American aid TO-
ward solution of the economic troubles
of Europe.
Although discussions of the proposal
have been kept thus far outside the
formal channels of diplomacy, the ex-
change of views has developed thor
ough understanding in authoritative
circles that the United States, Great
Britain and Germany are willing to as
sent to the creation of such commits
sion.
The plan now is before Premier
Poincare of France and he is expected
to make a decision after conferences
with industrial leaders of his own
country and of Germany. 1t is as
sumed that it will be communicated
later to all the nations interested in
reparation payments.
Department officials made it plain
that they would not be drawn into any
departure from the formal terms OF
Secretary Hughes brief statement,
which follows:
THE Department of State cannot
discuss tentative proposals which are
made to it with respect to the Euro
pean situation. The report that TINS
government had presented to other
governments a proposal for an Amer
lean commission is unfounded Of
course, it follows that no assent of any
other government to such proposal
has been received.
In authoritative quarters it was
learned that before the commission
proposal reached the attention of gov
ernment officials, first effort tc
bring the combined weight of indus
trial influence in the allied countries
Germany and the United States tc
bear on the reparations stumbling
block were made nearly six months
ago.
/ In Germany, Great Britain, the
United States and France, a series OF
private conferences were held between
important figures in the international
|
with stiff opposition in France at thai
time, but later when the council oi
premiers faced complete rupture IL
London this month, the effort was re
newed with great hopes of success tt
find a common ground for Il final re
parations settlement.
The proposal to create commits
sion of American industrial leaders
to measure Germany's economic ca
pacity as it is today seems to have
been the expression of consensus OF
opinion among the business interests
of all nations, that such course
would be wise, since the United States
is not a participant in Germanys re
parations payments. Mr.. Burns state
ment makes the American business
viewpoint on that question entirely
plain.

city during the year 1921?
2. Were you prevented by the
Board of Health of the City of Jer-
sey City from delivering milk in that
city during the year 1922?

livering milk in Staten Island by the

City of New York, or it's representa-
tives, pour vinegar, or any other sub
stance. into a load of milk in Staten
Island, in order to prevent the sale
of that milk?
S. Is it not a fact that you do not
sell any milk in Plainfield. due to
standards of the Board of Health
of the City of Plainfield?
6. Is it not fact that the milk
which you ship to Perth Amboy is in
bottles and not in cans as reported
in the Evening News, so that it
would be physically impossible TO
throw dirt in all the milk which you
ship into this city?
Z. Is there any difference in the
method of testing your milk by the
INSPECTORS of the Board of Health
of this city than the milk of other
dealers in this city?
8. Is it not true that the public is
buying milk in the City of Perth
Amboy one and two cents cheaper
that the surrounding towns?
9. Who tampered with your milk
which came to Perth Amboy be-
fore the $50 called gang" came here
10. 1t is not a fact, for the past
number of weeks. that three rail-
road detectives closely watched your
milk, which came to Perth Amboy,
to make sure that there was no tam :
pering with it, and yet the standards
were below the requirements of the
Perth Amboy Board of Health
IL. Is it not a fact that the rail-
road officials furnished these three
detectives in order to convince you
that your milk was not tampered
with by anyone?
-. Is it not a fact that the rail-
road officials, in one particular ship
ment, picked out one-third of the

use, because of the dirt and to fur

That Robert Carson. will seek the
nomination of freeholder on the Re-
publican ticket in the coming pri-
mary election, Is the report the
political bees are buzzing about this
city today. Friends of Mr.. Carson
declare that he will he a candidate
and will base his campaign on the
curtailment of expenses by this or
ganization. 1t is pointed out that
Mr.. Carson had often contended
that the present Board of Free
holders are an extravagant body.
Carson Is not the only name men,
toned for office. however. as ac-
cording to reports there are several
candidates for various offices ready
to enter the field.
This activity on the part OF the
Republicans. is said to be due to a
great extent to the stir that is being
created in securing a surrogate to
succeed Daniel W. Clayton, de-
ceased; also to the fact that the
county Republicans realize that il
Silzer is made candidate for cover.
nor on the Democratic ticket against
Runyon. they were confronted with
no easy usnt.
Sometime ago Fred c. Schneider
OF this city. who is state committee
man, let it be known that he would
not be candidate for reelection in
the fall campaign. However, today
II became known that Schneider has
agreed TO again become a candidate.
The terms of Freeholder Clarence
Nj. Haight of Dunellen, and Louis
]. Belloff. of this city, expire this
year. These two men are both in
the race for reelection and it is
announced that their petitions will
be placed in circulation soon.
Franklin NJ. Ritchie, an attorney
of this city. and United States Com
missioner. formally announced today
that he will be a candidate on the
Republican ticket for assemblyman.
1t is generally believed that Run
yon and Frelinghuysen will receive
the support of the county Republican
organization. For time there ap-
peared to be some doubt as TO
whether the organization would get
behind Congressman T. Frank APP
pleby or not, but late developments
are that Appleby will receive the
support of the county Republicans.
1t is understood that Assem- bly,
men Winton Applegate and Edward
Peterson will be candidates for re-
election.
Edward Bone, of South River, has
also been spoken of as a possible
candidate for the assembly.
A general opinion prevails that a
woman's name should appear on
the ticket ana there has been some
talk of Miss Dorothy Harkins, a
prominent worker in the Republi-
can ranks entering the race for
the assembly.

Perth Amboy bathing beaches VIII
no longer be an attraction for non-
swimmers due to the manner In
which the members of the local
police department are enforcing the
order of Chief Niels j. Tonnesen In
regard to improper bathing outfits
worn by males and females at these
places.
One of the tours made daily by
Policewoman Jensina Olesen is
along the bathing beaches, in order
that the females may keep in mind
the contents of the order issued by
the police chief regarding proper
bathing suits.
The day of one-piece suits for
females is over, the police assert,
and anyone attempting to violate
this order may well be prepared 10
face the music if they are caught
in the act of swim ming or strolling
along the beach in regalia of this
nature.
Yesterday the policewoman gave
a final warning to two girls who
apparently. were. garbed in impro-
per bathing costumes. The police
men assigned for this work have
also issued warnings on various oc-
casions to males violating the order,
and second offenders will be march
ed to the "hoosegow."
The activity of the police in this
respect is the result of numerous
complaints received at headquarters
from persons who were desirous of
having the light dressers know that

Men who have spent hours at a
time on the beach, will once again

DETECTIVES BAFFLED
IN WARD CASE PROBE

George Ward. back from Cleveland
to tell of the Clarence Peters slay-
ing, Westchester county authorities
outwardly marked time today in
their investigation.
Detectives to work out the tan
gled blackmail plot did some quiet
work. however. and District Attorney
Weeks planned to place half doz-
en- witnesses before the grand jury
tomorrow.
The witnesses included Mrs. Alfred
Hook. and Mr.. and Mrs. Waldo
Schuman. poker party guests at wal
ter Wards New Rochelle home on
the night of the Staying, and DIR. o.
H. Shull, who treated Ward just be-
fore the staying when he swallowed
iodine.
Walter S. Wards legal forces are
today preparing again to ask that
his trial on the charge of numbering
Clarence Peters be set for July.
Allan Campbell, one of Wards
lawyers, in discussing the desire for
an early trial, pointed to the inscrip-
ton above the main entrance of the
court house:
ITO none will we sell, to none will
we delay, to none will we deny right
or justice"
He expressed doubt that a
crowded court calendar prevented an
early trial of Ward, saying that the
only case of importance he could
learn of was that of the negro men
toned last week by Justice Mors-
chauser and whose trial is set for
next week.
1--WE, are ready for an immediate
trial and want it," he added. Its was
inferred that the Ward forces Will
renew their formal application as
soon as former Justice Isaac N. Mills
of Mount Vernon steps into the case
as trial counsel. When this was told

CHANCE To GET

to Give Second, Alder
men Third

Some weeks ago when the Even
ing News, in the Voice OF the
People" printed the question as 10
whether or not the citizens of the
oity desired band concerts. the al
swers with one or two exceptions
were that they did. Now an op-
portunity has come for the people
to obtain at least two concerts. II
they will subscribe enough Tor one,
making three concerts in all. But
If the people desire the two extra
concerts they must act quickly or
the summer will be too far ad-
vanced to obtain a sultaple pahu
for the occasions.
The opportunity that is given the
public is that of having three band
concerts if they will subscribe the
cost of one concert. In other words :,
If the people will send enough
money into the Evening News TO
paw for one concert, the Evening
News will pay for another, and
large Richard j. Gal
win is of the opinion that If the
people paid for one concert and the
Evening News for another. the all
dermen would find a way in which
they would pay for concert, thus
assuring the city of at least three
concerts
The cost of obtaining a good band
for each concert will be about SlOO-
Already the Evening News has re-
ceived some contributions for sucn
a cause and has signified its willing
ness to take charge of these contri-
buttons until sufficient number is re-

As the leading milk distributors
of the City Of Perth Amboy, and in
justice to the public in our trade of
the city and thereabouts. we feel it
our duty to take cogniZance OF the
statements contained in the adver-
tisement of George NJ. Clark in yes
terday's Perth Amboy Evening
News
Our concern located in Perth AM
boy in March, 1918, built our plant
and started pasteurizing and bottling
our milk. in order to produce the
best milk that came to this city.
The Board of Health of this city
took official notice of this fact and
encouraged us in our work, and we
have ever since maintained this pol
icy, in order to give the city the best
milk obtainable.
Prior to our locating in this city,
the Board of Health of this city
constantly complained of the quality
of the milk that reached Perth AM
boy. The records of the Board of
Health will verify and confirm this
statement.
Prior to 1918, there were six con-
Germs, which shipped milk to Perth
Amboy, and, because of their in
ability to have the milk up to the
standard requirements of the local
Board of Health. all of them dropped
out, with the exception of Mr.. Clark.
Mr.. Clark, in his statement, failed
to give the public the information
that this is not the first time that
: the Board of Health of the City OF
Perth Amboy endeavored to prevent
him from shipping his milk into this
city. 1t is the third time. In fact,
he was on probation, so to speak. for
the last five months, and he surely
mad an opportunity in five months
to improve his milk, so that 1t would
pass the standard of the Board of
Health of the City of Perth Amboy.
1t is, indeed. ridiculous. on the
part of Mr.. Clark to fool the people
of this city. in making the assertion
that everybody, and every milk deal
er, inspectors of the Board of Health
and the Board of Health are, in
league and conspiracy to prevent
him from bringing his milk into the
City of Perth Amboy.
The Board of Health of this city
has made special efforts and had a
steady campaign for pure milk for
at least the past four years, and.
surely the people of the City or
Perth Amboy are cognizant of the
fact. and appreciate the efforts of
the Board of Health in their at
tempt and endeavor to have the
milk which comes to this city the
best obtainable.
We trust that the public will not
be fooled by Mr.. Clark's endeavor
to bull-doze anybody or anyone in
any effort to have the Board OF
Health reduce their standards and
requirements for milk to be deliv-
cred in this city.

As the elimination of a heated
argument over the matter Of having
certain repairs TO the Mcclellan fire
company's apparatus. Alderman
John J. Clark last night resigned on
the floor of the council chamber as
chairman OF the fire committee. No
member OF the board seconded his
resignation, but he served notice on
the other aldermen that from that
time on he would have nothing more
to do with the fire committee.
The action of Alderman Clark was
