Trunk SEWER
BIDS MONDAY
Aldermen Will Again Attempt
to Award Contract for Big
Project Here
EXPECT SEVERAL BIDS
Mayors Veto of Fayette
Street Paving Will be Before
Aldermen Monday

The resolution authorizing the
paving of Fayette street from Stan
lord street to the westerly terminus
OF the street has been vetoed by
Mayor Wilson. The aldermen pass
ed this resolution together with an
ordinance appropriating $4,000 tc
lefray the cost of the work at a
recent meeting, both measures be-
ing opposed by Aldermen John So
field and Benjamin Riedy, the Re-
publican members of the board. AL
derman John j. Clark wa snt present
at the meeting so his stand on the
question is not known.
1t is problematical whether the
aldermen will attempt to pass the
measure over the, mayors veto at
the regular meeting next Monday
night. The mayor and Republican
eldermen maintain that the city's
finances at the present time will not
permit of this expenditure on street
repair work The Republican alder
men maintain that this is not the
time to start any street paving work
and they opposed the manner in
which one street was picked out Cor
repair when the board has a mum
Der Of petitions before it for i'm
provements which, they claim,
should receive just as much consid-
Grafton.
When the resolution was nut
through by the vote of the Democra-
tic majority despite the Republican
members protests, the action was
referred to by the opponents of the
move as political move to strength
en- the Democratic position in the
fourth ward, where the street is To-
Gated.
Five votes will be needed to pass
the Fayette street paving work over
the mayors veto and If the alder
men decide to attempt this it will
be necessary for one of the five DEM
pcrats on the board to vote with the
Republicans If the measure is to be
killed.
A committee meeting of the board
was held last night at which several
matters of Importance. were taken
UP. Bids will be received for the
second time Monday night on the
new trunk sewer system which has
been made necessary by the grade
crossing elimination here. There
were no bids received when this work
was dubEItlSeu the UTSC time. sew
eral weeks ago one bid was received
as the result of re-advertising, but
the figure of 100000 was rejected
by the board as exorbitant. 1t is
expected several bids on the work
win be received Monday night as q
number of copies of the plans and
specifications have been taken by
large out of town contracting COM
panies.
The aldermen are considering TAX
Ing steps to improve the condition
OF the short stretch on Amboy ave-
nue. connecting the new concrete
pavement with the old pavement,
that particular part of the road be-
ing in bad condition at present.
A delegation from the naval re-
serves asked permission of the al
dermen to moor their boats at the
foot of Market street. The board
asked that the request be made in
writing.
The widening of Brace avenue to
the city line and the opening up OF
Fayette street to Convery Place also
were discussed.

FRELINCHUYSEN
IN ANSWERED
"Bone Dry" Stand Would
Mean Political Oblivion,
State Chairman Declares

TRENTON. Sept. 29.-Declaring
it inconceivable that former United
States Senator Joseph S. Freling-
huysen and himself were right and
that their fellow citizens were "all
wrong to the tune of 10000 major
ity," when F'relinghuysen, a bone
dry" was defeated for reelection,
Republican State Chairman Edward
c. Stokes, today replied to the letter
addressed to him yesterday by the
ex-senator. Mr.. Frelinghuysen pro-
tested against the adoption. by the
party convention here next Tuesday
of any plan looking to modification
of the Volstead prohibition enforce
ment act.
Governor Stokes, in his reply,
warned that a "bone dry" stand by
the G. o. p, would mean political
oblivion and the turning of public
offices over to "avowed nullifiers of
the Constitution" He said the pres
ent situation is a scandal and that
the Republican party in this state
is honestly seeking true temperance
and working to have Congress make
national prohibit l effective by
writing into the enforcement code
the proper spirit of the eighteenth
amendment.

DR.. LORENz To
OPEN CLINIC
Famous "BIoodIess Surgeon"

LOCAL DOCTORS HELP

of City, Woodbridge, So. Am
boy, Keyport, Metuchen
LOCAL DOCTORS HELP

With the return to this country
yesterday of DIR. Adolf Lorenz, noted
'bloodless surgeon" the local Elks'
committee on crippled children's
work has commenced to prepare for
the free clinic which DIR. Lorenz will
open in Perth Amboy on Saturday,
October IS.
Much preliminary work has al
ready been done in order to facili-
tate matters and weed out from
among those desiring assistance the
cripples who cannot be cured by thN
specialist. Among those who cannot
be cured, according to word received
by the local committee, are the un-
fortunate victims of infantile paraly-
sis.
AS DR.. Lorenz's time is valuable in
that he has so many places to visit
and hundreds of patients to attend,
the local committee decided to select
a body of ten local physicians to
whom will be referred all of those
seeking aid. These physicians will
examine the ailments of the appli-
cants and select those who they be-
lieve DR.. Lorenz can benefit. In this
way the number of patients will be
kept down to the minimum and the
doctors time will not be taken up in
giving examinations to those who
he cannot aid, such as ipfantiIe pa
raylsis sufferers.
DIR. William e. Ramsay, a charter
member of the local lodge of Elks.
will head this committee of local
physicians and he will be assisted by
DR.. Charles w. Naulty, Jr., DR.. Ed
ward f. Klein, DIR. Edward K. Han
son, DR.. Matthew F. Urbanski, DR..
John V. Smith, DR.. Martin S. Mein-
zer, DR.. John S. Hay, DIR. Charles L.
Silk. and DR.. John l.. MacDowall.
No decision has been reached as
yet on the location of the clinic. 1t
may be held in the hospital or the
Elks home. Present indications are
that the clinic will be conducted at
least twice a month but further de-
finite details will not be known un-
til after the meeting to be held Tues
day night.
DIR. Harris K Coan, of Weehaw-
ken, who is in charge of the Elks
state program OF vocational training
which includes all crippled kiddies"
work, has assured the local commit
tee that DR.. Lorenz will be in Perth
Amboy on October 1S and it is ex-
pected that large number of Grip
Piles will grasp this opportunity to
allow the famous Austrian surgeon
to study their condition and try to
cure them.
Not only Perth Amboy but South
Amboy Metuchen, Woodbridge, and
Keyport comes under the supervision
of the local lodge of Elks and Grip
pies in any of these places are well
come to present themselves for eX-
animation to the committee of local
physicians.
