Six Hurt Near Carteret

CARTERET, Sept. 22:-Six per-
sons were injured when the touring
car in which they were riding was
struck by a fast line trolley going
from Elizabeth to Perth Amboy at
the East Railway crossing at 2
o'clock Saturday afternoon. Lack of
danger warning by the failure of
the bell to ring is said to be the
cause of the accident.
Lawrence Bell was on his way
home. In his car were his wife and
their ten-year-old daughter, also
Mrs. William Campbell and her two
year-old son, a neighbor of Bell, and
Mrs. Arthur Reynolds, another
neighbor. The report says that the
Bell machine was almost across the
tracks when the trolley hit the rear
of the machine, dragged 1t along fol
some distance and turned 1t over In
the ditch. The passengers of the
machine were taken to the Railway
hospital, where they were given
medical attention for cuts and
bruises. Mrs. Campbell remained at
the hospital.
An investigation made by the
police revealed that the danger bell
was out of order.

Science

Science is constantly discovering
strange alliances between widely
different creatures for mutual pro-
lection and help. Instances Of birds
that warn animals are the best
known, but there are stranger cases
in the plant world
Several thousand species Of plants
have a remarkable provision f3r pro-
tecting themselves. They provide
small crystals of sugar on the out
side of the flower of which certain
kinds Of ants are very fond. The
plant eives the ants sugar and in
turn the ants defend the plant from
harmful insects that would destroy
it. In addition there are alliances
between plants and insects that en-
able the plants to survive through
compelling the insects to fertilize
other growths. On the other hand.
there is fierce warfare between many
species of the two kingdoms. Plants
are not helpless in this contest.
Many Of them use what seems to be
intelligence in capturing and killing
insects. A live fly was secured to a
bit Of cardboard half an inch from
the leaf of a sundew. In two hours
the leaf reached the insect, fastened
its tentacles about it and killed 1t.

BUSINESS AND PEACE

HE power Of business interests and the necessity for
sound economic situation among the greatest factors
in bringing about permanent peace This emphasized by
H Fahey member Of the board of directors Of the Inter
national Chamber of Commerce. who said speech before the
central division of the United States Chamber of Commerce
meeting here:
In to get of its difficulties business certainly must
have its disposal credit than and follows logical
y that such credit be made available unless there IS
established greater confidence in and security than
have known before"
He pointed that ways have been suggested for
keeping peace the world First balance of military
and second boycott In referring to the latter plan
Fahey said:
"a large proportion of the business who have thought
fully considered the problem convinced that the utilization
of this great economic force IS probably the most feasible and
effective of heading off Nearly ten years the
business Of the United States through referendum of the
Chamber the United States declared by over
whelming vote in favor of economic sanctions"
Verify, pocketbook is mighter than the sword Eco
monte pressure the weghtiest weapon available for
against the military aggressor.

Then some gymnastics on the part
Of the speaker clearly not intended
as oratorical gestures.
The resounding thwaCk Jim had

matches in a senatorial pocket and
gave the audience some campaign
pyrotechnics not equaled by any
other speech OF the year.
