WEEKS BEST GOOD TURN

A bit of brown wrapping paper on
which was written a pathetic request
for food was the beginning of job
which kept Troop 2, of Council Bluffs,
Iowa, busy all last Winter, and gave
the members proud sense of good
accomplishment.
zone morning in the early part of
last October, one of my Boy Scouts
walked into the office and handed me
the appealing note" states r. F. Ny
ers, Principal of the Thomas Jefferson
High School of that city, who was
Scoutmaster of the troop. ut was
from an old woman, lonely and needy.
During the day I went to her little
three-room cottage to learn more of
her case. I found her sitting in an
old rocking chair Her right arm and
left leg had been amputated because
of blood poisoning Her only means
of moving about was either by jerking
the chair on one side and then the
other, or by dragging her body along
the floor She told me of her seven
months in the hospital and of her
anxiety to get back home, where her
sister had promised to live with and
care for her. But the sister had gone
away, leaving her alone and with little
to eat In fact, I found only half a
loaf of moldy bread and some pancake
flour She was in dire need and I
Immediately secured food and coal
for her
"At the next meeting of Troop 2 !
told the boys of my experience and
asked them what we could do for her.
After discussing the situation, they
decided to pick two Scouts to visit the
home each morning and evening.
These boys were to carry in wood and
fuel, secure food, and report other
needs. During the entire Winter
months, the troop kept up this work
Systematically, reporting at each
weekly meeting. On two different
occasions the whole troop met at the
old lady's home, cleaned up the house,
cut big pile of wood and took care
of all her needs.
'It was an inspiration to be present
at a Scout meeting" continues the
Scout leader, 'and hear the boys of
II to ii years Of age planning to
render service to one in need, and
l assure you that with the regularity
of the Scout meeting every Scout who
had been designated to serve on a
particular day during the past week
was questioned as to his charges
condition when he was last there. It
was a great opportunity for a good
turn and resulted in uniting the troop
for a common cause as nothing else
would"

1924 TAX RATE
WORK IS RUSHED
County Tax Board Urges
Municipalities to File Local
Budgets at Once

NEW BRUNSWICK, Feb. "a
Failure on the part of the majority
of municipal officials of the county to
file their local budgets with the
county board of taxation has pre-
vented the 1924 tax rate settlement,
and Frank M. Deiner, secretary or
the board, urges that the required
information be filed without delay.
While the law does not require the
fixing of the tax rate prior to April 1,
every effort to make the figures
known at the earliest possible date
is being made by the county body.
They compilation sheets have been
completed except for the striking OF
the rate and this work can not be
done until the local budgets are re-
ceived. With the receipt of the re-
auired information only two or three
DAYS will be required in figuring the
various rates.
slight increase in the valuation
of second class railroad -roperty is
indicated in the 1924 tax du.- licates,
the increase amounting to $6,92l.
This type of property represents all
the railroad holdings, with the ex-
ception of the main stem of the rail
systems which are assessed through
franchise tax.
Woodbridge and Perth Amboy
continue to head the list with the
largest amount of assessable rail-
road property. the former munici-
pality showing a valuation of $2,-
00S,415. while the latetr shows a
valuation of $1.S51,173.
This class of property is assessed
as follows in comparison to the
assessment for the last year.

for $6,250, Which County
Soon Must Pay N

NEW BRUNSWICK, Feb. 23.-
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
William S. Gummere has approved
of the bill representing the cost of
the county's freeholder vote recount,
recently completed. This bill, which
totals $6,250, will be presented to

The bill of Chief Justice Gummere
for his services in connection with
the recount totals $40. representing
four half-days at $40 per half day.
This bill apparently is the lowest
one of any which the county must
pay as the result of ]. Fred Orpen

Kalteissen, the Democratic candi-
date, who was shown elected by the
original count.
Three of the members of the Mid
dlesex County Board of Taxation re-
ceived $3.50 apiece for their sery-
Ices as they served Ga days at 500
per day. Walter J. Rielley. clerk
of the board, received $40 day or a
total of $1,920.

ANOTHER MOVE
MADE BY COUNTY
IN CRAFT CASE.
Saloon of Henry Roth Raided
by County Officials Aided
by City Police
SCANDAL STARTED THERE
Gambling Charge in Same
Case Discussed in the
Recorders Court

Another move, possibly the last as
far as arrests are concerned, was
taken by the county authorities in
the Perth Amboy police-South River
bootlegger case, when the saloon of
Henry Roth, Oak and Fayette
streets, was visited ON Thursday
afternoon and a small seizure of
wine made. At the same time the
local police arrested two customers
and summoned the proprietor for
participating in a game of ''rummy"
cards.
AS previously pointed out the new
police scandal started at Roth's
saloon, and since the bootegger and
two policemen were indicted. detec-
tives and operatives of the prosecu-
tors office succeeded in purchas-
ing whiskey at the establishment.
The raid on Thursday in charge of
County Detective William Fitz-
patrick who was assisted by County
Detective Charles Collins and Ser
geant Frank Kahprzak and officer
John Kurpiel, netted small guam
tity of port wine! Roth, it is said,
admitted 1t was intoxicating when
he was arraigned by Supreme Court
Commissioner Van Cleef. The sa-
loonkeeper furnished $500 bail.
The gambling charge was dismiss
ed in police court this morning, the
"rummy' cards and S6.40 seized,
being kept by the police. Soren
Christiansen and Fred Anderson
were the men arrested with the pro-
prietor on the gambling charge.
William Langfeld, South River
bootlegger, victim of the shake
down" by two local police officers,
was closeted with the detectives of
the prosecutors Office for the better
part of this morning and it was inti-
mated that information obtained
from him would lead to the in
rtment of several more local resi-
ats at the next session of the grand
jury.
Langfeld and the two local police
officers, Hansen and Marmon, were
already indicted in the case.
1t is alleged that the county ar-
thorities are also investigating
"shakedown" charges and bootleg
activities of other members of the
local police department.
Second Bail
After the Roth raid the county
detectives went to the saloon OF
John Sasala, 460 State street where
a warrant of arrest was served. The
warrant was based on previous sales
and no search was made. He FUR
, Eished $500 bail in police court TINS
morning for hearing Monday
night.
