MRS. WITTPENK DID NOT
REACH HERE YESTERDAY
A meeting of the women of this
city was held yesterday afternoon in
the Public Library, when Mrs H. Otto
Wittpenn, honorary president of the
Women's Committee of National De
fense. was expected to be
present to explain the hand
ling of Liberty Loan bonds by the
women, and ways of assisting the
men's committees in this work. Mrs.
Wittpenn hae full charge of this work
among the women of the state.
By some mistake at the office in
Newark, Mrs. Wittpenn and her party
were .sent to New Brunswick instead
to Perth Amboy. Mrs. Audsley. the
ι county chairman, took charge and
! explained the work in her place.
A number of people were present,
including a committee of men who
came to confer with the women on
Liberty Loan bond. Among those
present were O. W. Ramsay, county
chairman of the Executive Commit
tee of United States Food Administra
tion, and Mrs. 8. Ft. Audsley, Middle
sex county chairman of the Women's
Committee of National Defense.
Mrs. Audsley opened the meeting at
3:30 o'clock and after giving a brief
summary of the work and aims of the
council, introduced Mr. Ramsay, who
spoke on the Liberty Loan and the
need of the women of the city that
his committee felt was needc-d, and
of the great help he knew the women
[ could give the men of the city, not
I only in the work of the food admin
ί istration. but in the selling of Liberty
; bands. While he thought the two de
partments, food administration and
Liberty Loan, should go hand in hand,
! for the moment the loan should take
ι precedence. He asked the help of the
women In a family campaign drive
and other work, and especially asked
the committees οt different women's
organizations to meet his committee
next Monday evening to formulate
concerted plans for a big drive.
After some general discussion the
meeting adjourned to await further
directions from headquarters.
Mrs. Wittpenn may arrange to meet'
the women of this city next Thursday
afternoon to consider Liberty Loan
bonds and other matters of the Coun
cil of National Defense.

MULLICA HILL. Oct. 12—Ther is
much concern over the condition of
Senator W. F. Gaunt, president of the
State Senate, who was removed from
his home here a few days ago to the
Medico-Chl Hospital, Philadelphia, for
an examination after specialists had
failed to agree as to the cause of the
ailment which has troubled him for
several months past. The original
cause of the trouble is believed to
have resulted from injuries which
Senator Gaunt sustained to his back
when he fell from a stable here last
winter while fighting a fire.
