ESSEN, Jan. 13.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press)-While Germany gem
orally was preparing for the observ-
ance. of tomorrow as the Sunday
of Mourning" over the occupation of
the Ruhr, the actual establishment
of the French and Belgian garrisons
continued TO be extended and the
occupying authorities at Essen and
Dusseldorf were making further eff
forts toward direct negotiations with
the big industrialists and mine oper-
ators.
Today's invitation was sent TO
about a cor of the most prominent
operators in the occupied areas. The
control commission has been divided
into three sections which will deal,
respectively, with the coal syndicate,
the miners association and the iron
producers association.
Another proclamation by Gen
eral Degoutte appeared on the
streets of Essen this morning. 1t
gave notice that "alI possible mea-
sures of pressure" would be applied
III case the commission officials were
any way interfered with or en-
dangered in their work, or in the
event that the local authorities dis
turbed the economic life of the area
through actual deeds or passive re-
sistance.
The proclamation expressed the
hope that the relations between the
Belgian and French officials and the
population would be equally as
good" as in the occupied territory
on the left bank of the Rrine.
General Degoutte pointed out that
the occupation was not a military
operation and that it had no political
character, being merely for the plr-
pose of supporting and protecting
the members of the commission. He
appealed to the people for their CO.
operation.
The four main bodies Of mine
workers have issued an appeal to
their members to refrain f ON deeds
of violence and continue at work.
The signatories r the Association
of German Mine Workers, the Chris
tan Miners Association, the Miners
Section of the Polish Trade Union.
and the Miners Section of the
Hirsch-Dunker Trade Unon.

MAKE PROTEST
Against Erection of Hospital
Which Will Use Up Relief
Fund

A meeting of the fremen of this
city has been called for tomorrow
, morning at their respective company
houses, at which time d resolution
will be signed protesting against the
plan to erect a hospital at Boontuil
the erection and upkeep of which
will use up the relief fund and death
benefit fund annually allowed the
state firemen by the commissioner
of banking and insurance.
The action of the local fire fight
ers' association. is in line with the
activities of firemen throughout this
state. At the annual meeting of the
| association held in Atlantic City last
September recommendations regard
in- a state hospital and the man
| agement of the state fremen's home
! which is also at Boonton, were TAX
en- up.
The firemen contend that they
I should control the state home, sup
| ported from funds allotted to the re-
lief associations of the state, and
| also that a hospital is a necessity,
| but their plan is for the institution
| of a hospital for the inmates of the
| home with not exceeding five beds.
| Local relief associations can make
arrangements with nearby hospitals
| for the care of firemen who ind it
inconvenient to go to the site of the
| present home.
The present managers of the
Boonton home are endeavoring TO
! divert the annual firemen's allot-
| ment to the hospital project. Ply
sicians and others in Boonton are
backing the plan, it is said, because
the proposed institution will serve
| as a local hospital and will ultimate
ly cost $780, 900 and in addition $780,
600 annually. The firemen can see
that if the scheme is legalized, the
commissioner of banking and insur-
| ance would for some time and per-
| haps, forever, be required to devote
| ali none belonging to the relief
funds, toward the building and up
keep of the institution planned.
Recently the board of managers
of the institution made a request of
| the commissioner of banking and in
surance for $13O,000 which will be
| used to start work on the hospital.
| The firemen have taken the matter
up with former Governor Edwards
and the commissioner, n will also
| place the situation in the hands of
| Governor-elect George S. Silzer, and
| the senators and assemblymen of the
state.
A resolution which will be signed
by Mayor William C. Wilson, James
A. Murray, secretary of the local re-
| lief association: A. f. Munoz, l.. Burt
Moore, Frank Tooker, Jr, Chief A.
P. Anderson and other members of
| the local fire department, will be ad-
| dressed to Governor Silzer, Senator
Morgan F. Larson and Assemblymen
Thomas L. Hanson, Harold Hoffman
and Fred w. DeVoe of this county.
This resolution opposes the building
of the hospital as proposed by the
present board of managers of the
Boonton home, and also depriving
the f1remen of the death benefit fund
and the annual allotment of the
commissioner of banking AMI insur-
ance. Passage of proper legislation
giving the firemen the right to elect
the board of managers also is
asked.
1t is requested that all resolutions
be in the hands of the governor,
senator's and assemblymen by next
Tuesday.

CITY GARBAGE
COLLECTIONS
To Be HELPED
Aldermen Plan Additional
Equipment for This Munic-
pal Work
MEETIN G
New Dump Move to be Taken
Shortly-Meeting on Mon
day Night

The garbage question was discuss
mittee meeting of the Board of AL
dermen at which time it was decid-
ed to investigate the purchasing of
equipment and the way and means
of continuing the collection of gar
bage by the municipality. This is
one of the most serious problems the
Board of Aldermen has been called
upon to solve and probably is next in
importance to the grade crossing
elimination problem which also con-
fronts the aldermen at this time.
Alderman-at-large Richard j.
Calvin today declared there is no
doubt that the municipal collection
Of garbage is a saving to the city,
and saw no eason why itshou16 be
discontinued. The question of pur-
chasing the necessary equipment is
one that will need considerable in
vestigating, but it is likely thai a re-
port on this matter will be forth
coming within a short time. The
question of obtaining a new dump is
also important, and will have to be
settled shortly.
From the talk among the alder
men who are supporting the mu-
nicipal collection Of garbage, it is
understood that Chairman Thomas
Patter of the street committee, has
been more or less "up against it"
ever since he took ove the collec-
ton, when it was decided that the
new contract offered for THE collec-
ton Of garbage was too large and
the city decided to collect the
garbage at its W expense. Ac-
cordirg to Mr.. Patten considerable
money has been saved by the city,
not only under the new contract,
but also the old one, and that be-
fore the year is over the saving Oh
the part of the city will run into
the thousands of dollars.
Among the things with which the
street department has had to coil
tend since taking over the municipal
collection of the garbage, is the
ruling of the Board of Health that
the loads carried on the wagons
mus be cut down. According to
Alderman at Large Calvin, under
the reduction in the size of the load
carried to meet the requirements
of the health department, it now
takes three wagons to do the work
which was formerly done by one.
This makes extra team hire neces-
sary.
The fact that all kinds of garbage
IS taken is also an added expense
that was not a part of the old con-
tract system. The city plans to sep
arate the garbage so that ashes and
other material that can not be de-
stroyed by burning will be placed in
the dump and the papers, boxes and
garbage car be destroyed by fire.
1t is likely that the aldermen will
go more deeply into the matter at
the meeting on Monday night. The
question of grade crossing elimina-
ton was not discussed at the COM
mittee session last night.

KILLED FALL
At LEAD WORKS
Harry Peterson Construction
Foreman on New Building
is Fatally Hurt

Harry Peterson, forty. years OLD,
a foreman Of construction for Lev
ening & Garrigues, structural iron
workers of West 23rd street, New
York city, while working on a scat
folding of a new building beirg
erected at the United Lead Works
plant in this city, missed his footing
and fell a distance Of about twenty
feet yesterday and was injured so
badly that he died three minutes
after being admitted to the Perth
Amboy City hospital. The injured
man was brought to the hospital at
4:35 o'clock having been sent there
by DIR. William E. Ramsay, n
plant physician, who gave him first
aid shortly after the man fell.
Peterson who was rendered I'M
conscious by the fall died OF a frac-
tured skull. He was married and
resided with his wife and two CHI
drer at 306 East Third stresr,
Brooklyn. He had been in the en-
.ploy of lowering & Garrigues for
some time. He was walking along
the scaffolding when a mfsstep
threw him from the first section Of
the new steel construction to the
ground. He was picked up by men
under him and carried to a nearby
building.
When DIR. Ramsay arrived he had
the man removed to the hospital at
once but he expired shortly after
being admitted there. Coroner
Edward K. Hanson turned the bofy
over to Undertaken James ]. Flynn
of East avenue, who arranged for
shipping the body to the dead mans
home in Brooklyn today. Lever
ing & Garrigues who are erecting
the building at the local plant, have
a factory at Dunellen.

Intend to do
TO DEFER PAYMENT
Of Gold Marks Due From
Germany Monday Until
January 81

PARIS, Jan. 1S-The PREPARATIONS
commission this morning postponed
until January 81, the payment OF
500, 100000 gold marks due from
Germany next Monday.
France, Italy and Belgium voted
for the delay. Sir John Bradbury.
the British member did not cast a
ballot.
The commission decided also 70
inform the German war burdens
commission that a reply would be
made within a few days to the LETT
tiers of the German Commission,
dated Nov. IA and Nov. 27, in which
on behalf of the German govern
ment it demanded. a moratorium for
1923.
Sir John Bradbury, the British
representative, said there had been
no official indication to the commits
u of what had been done by the
French, Belgians and Italians in the
Ruhr, or what they intended to de.
Without such information he thought
the commission would be seriously
handicapped in the discussion or
such matters as a moratorium. The
question had now arisen, he de-
clared, as to who was responsible for
the coal deliveries-the Preparations
Commission Or the Franco-BeIgian
control.
The commission decided, with Sit
John abstaining from voting. that its
office at Essen should cooperate with
the occupational authorities.
1t was learned this morning that.
as a result of Sir Johns recent yisif.
to London, the British government
has decided its delegate shall abstaiFs
from participating in all the deci-
sions of the commission pending >
solution of the question as to what
effect Frances independent
will have on the existence OF the
commission.
It is foreseen in British circles
that, if the commission becomes
merely a medium for registering the
requirements of the French policy
toward Germany, Great Britain
might be faced with the necessity Of
withdrawing entirely from the body.
For the present, however, the policy
of the British will be to retain its
| place until the broader issue is set
tied.

Seize Booze in County

NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. ID
Shortly after 2 o'clock this morning
a detail of state police on the Lin
coin highway, near Franklin Park;
became suspicious of three trucks
bound for New York and, upon in
vestigation, found that they con-
tanned 1856 barrels Of beer-sixty-two
on each truck.
Trooper Juliano was assisted by
Troopers Sigostrom and Marshall on
this detail. and the six men on the
three trucks were taken to the local
police station and kept over night,
pending the action of the federal
authorities. c. Raymond Lyons was
obtained to represent the defen-
dants.
Two of the trucks seized were new
Pierce Arrow trucks, out for the first
time, and the third a White truck.
Those arrested, included Peter
Rachael. thirty. of Elizabeth, the
driver of one of the new trucks and
which bore dealers tags; Joseph H.
SchwartZback, twenty-six, of Eliza
beth, driver of the second new truck,
and Leroy Taylor, twenty of Phila-
delphia, chauffeur of the White
truck. Rachael and Schwartzback
were without registration licenses
and Taylor without a drivers license.
1t is probable that the state will
rush the motor vehicle law viola
lions.
One helper on each of the three
trucks also were arrested and gave
the names Vincent Rachael. twenty
one. of Elizabeth; Paul Thompson,
fo~rty-three, of Elizabeth, and Lewis
Smith, thirty, of Yonkers.
The six men will be arraigned be-
fore United States Commissioner F.
NJ. Richie some time today. In reply
to a question the drivers denied that
the trucks had eve been engaged
for liquor transportation, they claim
ing not to know what their trucks
contained.
