INTOXICATED SCHOOL .
CHILDREN CAUSE RAID


NEWARK. March 1Tg-Children
coming to school in an alleged intox.
icated condition in the 'ironbound"
section of Newark, led to a raid to-
DAY by federal prohibition enforce
ment agents on a dwelling at 11S
Tyler street where a quantity of al
legged "moonshine" alcohol and
FIVE gallon still were seized, the
agents charge.
The raid was made after COM
piaint had been filed by the attend
ance department of the Newark
Board of Education. Numerous COM
plants had been received by the
board that children were coming to
school apparently under the inf1u-
ence OF liquor, the agents said. The
first case to come to the attention OF
the board, officials said, was when a
pupil of the Lafayette school came to
class so drunk he had to be assisted
OF his home, according to the teach-
ers.
No arrests were made during the
raid, but it is expected at least two
persons will be arrested later today.

An active debate appears to be 60

The general line of the industrial
argument, according TO this French

TRENTON, March l5.--New Jer-
sey's new bipartisan four-man
State Highway Commission got down
to actual business in the department
offices here this, morning. todays
terday's, at which time General
Hugh l.. Scott of Princeton, one of
the Republican members, was
named chairman. The military
mans choice was unanimous. He
was nominated by Percy. Stewart of
Plainfield, another Republican on
the new board, and the nomination
was seconded by each of the Demo-
cratic commissioners, Walter kidde
Of MoEtclair an l Abraham Jelin of
New Brunswick.
Immediately after the appointees
took the oath of office, they ad-
journed to the quarters of the State
Highway Commission in the Broad
Street Bank building. and as their
official act, selected General Scott
chairman. After that the members
expressed a desire to personally
meet every employe of the depart
ment. Consequently, the office at
taches lined up and one by one were
introduced to their new supervisors.
None of the members was pre-
pared yesterday to express any de-
tails as to how the work will be
carried out. During the course OF
the late afternoon, the four road
builders conferred with Assistant
State Highway Engineer Edward z.
Reed and A. Lee Grover, secretary of
the commission, and his assistant,
Charles Fishberg, as to how the rou-
tine business of the department is
taken care of.
ut is our purpose to get dol
lars worth of roads for every dollar
that is spent by. the state" was the
comment from General Scott. He
predicted that it would be but a
short time when the road depart
ment would again be functioning at
full blast.
This. board is absolutely free of
any conditions of any kind" was
the comment of Governor SilZer fol-
lowing the ceremonies. 'All that is
asked is that they build good roads
and build them honestly. That is
what ] predict they will do"
The administration of the oath to
the four men was impressive, but
simple. They had met for the first
time. having been total strangers
prior to yesterday afternoon. After
exchanging a few greetings in the
private Office of Governor Silzer, the
men adjourned to the reception room
of the executive.
There, Messrs. Scott, Stewart.
Kidde and Jelin in the order named
stood in a circle with their hands
on the Holy Bible in the hand OF
Secretary of State Thomas f. Mar
tin, while the oath was administer
ed by County Judge John P. Kirk
patrick, of Middlesex. Governor Sill
ger stood close by.
While the oath was being admin
istered, all that was heard in addi-
ton to the voices of the men involv-
ed, was the clicking of motion pic
ture machines and cameras. Num-
erous people had crowded into the
room to witness the ceremony and
congratulate the new highway conf
missioners as we'll as Governor Sill
zer.
Those who met the commissioners
for the first time, were deeply i'm
pressed with the men whom the
Governor appointed. They were
freely characterized as high type"
men.

For instance, he said, a million peo-

make a cup of tea.
Tyae speaker. being transmission re-
search engineer of the Western Elee-

inventions of the laboratories. inciud-
ing special high-power vacuum-tube
emplifiers and electric-wave filters.
He also allowed his audience to see
his voice as we'll as hear II. This was
made possible by dancing waves OF
light indicative of the vibrations OF
his voice on the screen.
Experiments show. the lecturer
stated, that mans voice Is not parti-
cuiarly efficient, II purely aesthetic
considerations are left out of account.

tage Of by telephone engineers who
filter out the wave lengths having
the highest energy, and transmit only
those which contribute most TO the
intelligibility OF conversation. If all
the waves required to transmit the
natural voice were included, the tele-
phone plant would have to be even
more complicated than Is now the
case, and the service more costly.
Very loud sounds are not heard as
clearly, because they tend to deaden
the nerves of hearing. and II too In

ears.
The ear has been found to be one
of the most sensitive devices known
In about the middle of the range OF
tones of the piano the ear can detect
pressures as small as the weight OF
