POLICE JUDGE
Burr McAnney Submits Resigna-
ton to City Council Monday
Night-Fire Plug Wanted.
GARAGE ORDERED moved

At the meeting of City Council on
Monday night the resignation of Burr
MeAnney as Police Justice, was pre-
scented to Council and accepted. By a
resolution unanimously adopted,
George w. Biggs, County Road fore
man, was named to the position thus
made vacant. He will assume the
duties of the Office as oon as he quail
i1es under the law. All police cases
have been heard by Mayor Jackson
since the retirement of Judge Brown
from this Office.
A delegation of colored residents in
the vicinity of Washington Avenue
and Doughty Road presented a petit
ton to Council for a fire plug at the
intersecting orner of these two roads.
They had taken up the matter with
the Public Utilities Commission re-
Gently and were instructed to make
formal application to Council to have
the water company place the needed
plug. The matter was referred to the
fire committee to interview the Super
intendent of the water company and
make a report at the next meeting of
Council.
There was quite a debate over the
action of Council in ordering Clar-
ence Daugherty, a former Building In
spector, to either move or tear down
a garage he had recently erected. The
action of Council was on a report of
Building Inspector Warren Austin
that the building was erected in VIC
lation of the Building Code. 1t was
stated that the building was not a
fire proof structure as is required by
law. Councilmen Stephenson, Yates
and Reynolds voted for the motion to
have the structure torn down or moved
and Councilmen Umbrine and Wilson
voted against the action.
The Pleasantville Fire Company re-
ported that there was a garage on
Fourth Street and another at Wash
ington Avenue and Main Street that
were not built in compliance with the
Building Code. This report was re-
ceived and filed.
Edward Goehler submitted the only
bid for installing sidewalks and curbs
as ordered by the city during the bal
ance of this year. The bid was refer
red to the street committee to report
back at the next meeting of Council.
The Street Committee was ordered
to purchases trailer for the city trac-
tO4+ WY O1Vlh Noo "
advertise for bids for the erection of a
garage and work shop on the city
property at Woodland Avenue. These
bids are to be in at the next meeting
of Council.
The following ordinances were pass
ed on third reading: to vacate a strip
of land 10 by $50 feet at Franklin
Avenue and Atlantic City Railroad;
authorizing the raising by taxation
the sum of ~$168,312.9S for the year
1928.
A resolution was adopted to borrow
the sum of $4,000 in anticipation OF
tax revenues for this year. The Street
Committee reported that the grade of
Franklin Avenue had been cut several
inches and the surplus street dirt had
been used for a five foot fill on land
owned by the city at Woodland Ave

Privileges Only Jokes as

Special Dispatch to The Star.
SENECA FALLS, n. Y, July I'm
this little town, where seventy-f1ve
years ago the first woman's rights
convention in America was held,
members of the National Woman's
Party will meet within the next fort
night to distinguish between joke
and a privilege as applied by law TO
the weaker sex.
What Is comparable to a bill of
rights has been drawn up by the
women. and If approved at the con-
ference an effort will be made to in
troduce in the the next Congress an
amendment to the Constitution giving
equal rights to men and women
throughout the entire country. Mrs.
Burnita Shelton Matthews. .head of
the legal research department of the
woman's party. has provided the
foundation for the amendment, and
has this to say:
THE self-sacrificing propensity Of
the male. of which Adam gave so
notable demonstration shortly after
creation, has resulted in the erection
! by men of legal system of which
one of the most cherished aims and
objects has been the protection of
women
Privileges Only Jokes.
This self-same protective legal
system perpetrates the following
jokes under the guise of privileges,
she says:
Deprives women of all right Of
guardianship of their own children.
Deprives them, upon marriage, of
the right to enter into contracts.
Deprives them of the control of
their own property.
Deprives them Of the right to es-
tablish domicile for themselves
under any circumstances and for any
purpose.
Denrives them of the power to ad-
nit their own children into the home
they bought with their own money
if the husband objects to such ad-
mittance.
''women have been consistently and
universally paid less for the same
work in business and industry, and
are denied promotion that is given
men of equal ability. They have been
excluded from colleges and from equal
opportunities in the colleges to which
they are admitted.
Excluded From once.
They have been excluded from
public office. and they have been dis
criminated against in the practice OF
all professions. Upon marriage they
have been deprived of all control over
their own labor, and robbed of the
earnings of that labor. They have
been restrained in their personal lib
erty, Disseminated against in divorce
laws and put in an inferior position
even in the moral standard which has
prevailed through the whole world
The conference members intend to
visit Rochester to make a pilgrimage
to the grave of Susan B. Anthony,
who was for sixty years the mainstay
of the suffrage cause in America.
Thereafter they will adjourn to their
respective states to begin the fight
for the amendment.

city. Miss Jones. white haired, virile,
strong faced, began work when she
was eighteen years old. Her first
teaching job was in the old seven

in the schoolroom had been literally
chased from the building by hard
boiled youngsters, who routed her~with
a shower of shoes.
Since that day Miss Jones has sue

Miss Jones does not believe in
whipping children. Corporal punish

average child store up hatreds. I'm

far more harmful in it's results than
letting the guilty escape. Many
youthful criminals have been created
by punishments which they did not
