Many Interesting Discussions Planned By The Civic Forum Members Vote To Remain In Federation—35 Present At Last Tuesday’s Meeting— Favor P-R Voting System— Explain Mexican Trouble. The Bergen County Civic Forum will branch out during the corn in}’ year by taking up the study of a number of important subjects and speakers will be secured to further the plan of the orgainzation in put ting before every member the mosl important events and keep them ir touch with municipal, county, state and national problems. Mrs. Hamilton suggested at the meeting held on Tuesday in the Cour House in Hackensack that it weiule be a good plan to try to secure sucl men as Ross McClave to talk of Ber gen County highways, as he is ai authority on the subject anel has al ready given this talk before severa Kiwanis and Rotary clubs througlrou the county. Municipal government in Now Jer Foy, regional planning for boulevards parks and everything of civic interes will enter their program for the com ing year. The members voted to remain ir the Federation, and the year’s dues have been paid to that organization, There were thirty-five women pre sent and the president extended to them hearty greetings after the sum mer session, and all are anticipating that this year will be the most inter esting and important the forum has ever had. The direct primaries has many friends in the Forum, and Mrs. Ham ilton said: “If we want the primary to remain we must work for it and learn to use it as it was' intended we should, when it was first started.”. In outlining the program for the year, Mrs. Hamilton took the items one by one and explained them. Speaking of proportional representa tion, Mrs. Hamilton said: “There should be minority represen tation on our Board of Freeholders, no Democrat has had a voice on that Board since it was reorganized and there is no check on the expenditures of the members of the Board. An other matter discussed was the plan of -caring for- delinquent dependent and defective children, and united ac tion is required in getting results. The members of the forum are strong for securing paid speakers on educa tional problems, and a course of eight or ten lectures will probably be given during the winter months by profess ors of Columbia and other universi ties” The members are also in favor of l remaining in the Federation. Last spring the question arose as t<\ wheth er or not the Forurrt should remain in the Federation, and after much discussion it was decided that great benefit would be obtained for all by actual contact with the Federation and .the vote in favor of doing so was a large one. Mrs. E>|f E. Vann reported on the recent meeting of federation secretar ies, which greatly interested the mem I bers. The' afternoon session was the treat of the day, for a talk on the problems of Mexico and a resume of . the Williamstown Conference were given by Mrs. Hamilton. The trouble between the Catholic Church and Mexico was explained and some ques tions asked by members were answer ed. The question box, too, came in for attentiofi and several questions were answered. Another speaker to be heard at a future meeting will be J. Spencer Smith, of the Port of New York Au thority. The ballot cast for the definite pro gram for the year, will be counted and a prompt report given. The Forum will take up the study of sev eral of the latest books by well known authors, and a list of helpful maga zines has been placed at the disposal of the Forum members. The afternoon session closed promptly at 2:30 o’clock, with the fall season fairly started and with one of the most interesting programs ever presented.
