IN FULL ACCORD
Threatened Split in Ranks of
Republican Assemblymen
No Longer Feared.
[Specfnl to the Newark Star.]
TRENTON. Feb. 10.—The break in
l the Republican minority of twenty
bi/* three members in the House of As
sembly has been healed, it was said
s today. Peace is to reign hereafter
with Assemblyman Emerson L. Rich
‘ ards, of Atlantic county, again the
accredited leader of the minority. The
delegation of three from Camden
county and the five from Passaic with
sundry others said to have been dls
P affected are now back in the ranks
of the unified minority.
The settlement of the difficulty,
Which threatened to split the minor
ity, was prophesied last night. Some
thing would happen today, it was
said, that would convince all the
members of the minority that Mr.
Richards, far from being inconsider
ate of the other Republican assembly
men, was fully aware that they were
entitled to something more than ex
pressions of good will.
The looked for action came short
ly after the convening nf the House
this morning, when Minority Leader
Richards relinquished his place on
one of the three committees to which
he has been appointed. He arose and
asked leave to resign from the muni
cipal corporations committee, re
questing that Assemblyman Henry S.
Bcovel, of Camden county, be ap
pointed in his place. His request was
acceded to and Mr. Scovel’s name was
substituted for Mr. Richards’s on that
committee.
General satisfaction is expressed by
Republican assemblymen over Minor
ity Leader Richards’s act It appears
to be the one thing needed to close
the breach in the Republican ranks,
which had.reached the point where
an explosion in the House was feared.
The break was a very real thing, and
was partly due to the feeling that Mr.
Bcovel, who is really the veteran
member of the minority, was neglect
ed by Leader Richards.
Mr. Scovel Is not a veteran in th*
sense of consecutive service. He was
a member of the Assembly from 1903
to 1906. He was then appointed prose
cutor of Camden county, served out
his full term, and came back to the
Assembly again this year.
Leader Richards denies that there
was any break, being within the
facts, as far as any overt act in the
Assembly is concerned.
Other Republican members freely
admit that something was sure to
happen unless things greatly changed.
The efforts of former Governor Ed
ward Casper Stokes and David Baird
were called Into play, but It is gen
. erally believed that he rather fell for
« the insurgents.
7 All of the Republicans Insist that
Mr. Stokes did not interfere, but
politicians agree that evidence of the
effect of his fine hand are not want
ing. The Republican members also
agree that the trouble is over.
"Mr. Richards is now showing an
inclination to ‘mix’ with his col
leagues," was the comment of a Re
publican bystander, who admitted
that this would settle all difficulties.
Mr. Richards was formerly on three
Important committees—municipal cor
porations, appropriations and Ju
diciary. Mr. Scovel had a place on
but one, that one bill revision. Either
now has two committees, and every
body appears to be satisfied.

PUBLIC WELFARE
PROBE’S SCOPE
TOLD BY DENNIS
Nothing Political, Latter Tells
Freeholders, in Proposed In
quiry by Committee.
Dr. Laban Dennis, president of tbe
Public Welfare Committee of Essex
County, Inc., yesterday sent a letter
to Director Walter A. Evans, of the
Board of Freeholders, in reply to a
request from Mr. Evans as to Just
what the scope of the proposed inves
tigation of county affairs by agent* of
the welfare committee was to con
sist of.
In his reply, Dr. Dennis explains the
proposed survey and states emphatic
ally that nothing of a political nature
is to enter Into the work. The letter
in full follows:
"Dear Sir—The constructive survey
of public institutions and activities in
Essex county will be carried on by the
New York Bureau of Municipal Re
search, acting as a representative of
the welfare committee.
"Dr. F. A. Cleveland, one of the di
rectors of the New York bureau, wilT
be in charge of the entire survey and
particular the technical work.
“Dr. Cleveland is a recognized au
thority in city budget-making and
finance. He was the chairman of the
President's Commission on Economy
and Efficiency and in this capacity
made a survey of the federal govern
ment, organization and business meth
ods.
"He has been engaged In the reor
ganization of the New York Mutual
Life Insurance Company as well as
the custom house at the port of New
York. He is known as the author of
'Funds and Their Uses,’ 'Municipal
Administration and Accounting,’ 'Or
ganized Democracy,’ etc.
“Surveys” In Other Places.
"H. R. Sands was for a number of
years in the division, of the United
States Census Bureau, which inves
tigates municipal finances and has
since that time given his entire at
tention to municipal work. He has
been engaged by the Bureau of Pub
lic Efficiency in Chicago, has made
surveys in Los Angeles, Portland, At
lanta, Pittsburgh and Springfield,
Mass. He has Just completed the ad
ministrative code for Portland. Re
cently he made a county survey of
Mulnommah county, Oregon, and will
in two weeks begin a study of Alle
gheny county, Pennsylvania.
"W. B. Holton has been engaged
in surveys of public works, road
making and repairing. He has been
engaged in Borough President Mc
Aneny’s reorganization in Manhattan
and In the reorganization of the
Philadelphia city administration. He
has made special studies in Portland,
Toronto, Pittsburgh, Springfield and
Reading.
"Mr. Sands and Mr. Holton will be
engaged in such financial accounting
and municipal office problems as will
come before the welfare committee in
carrying out its survey.
"W. A. Averill will represent the
committee at its local office and will
organize the citizen contact work and
will direct the survey of the educa
tional work of the county.
"He has been a school teacher in
this country and in Germany, where
he served two years as an exchange
teacher for the Carnegie Foundation
for the advancement of teaching. He
was engaged in the recent survey of
the New York city public schools
under the direction of the Board of
Estimate and Apportionment. He
has installed bureaus of school effi
ciency in the education departments
of Rochester and Schenectady and has
conducted school surveys in Reading,
Pa., St. Paul, Minn., and Hempstead,
L. I.
"Director Evans refers to a possible
political motive on the part of the
committee in a letter to Dr. Dennis,
which we quote: 'If the members or
your committee are desirous of ob
taining Information as to the methods
and policies of the Board of Free
holders, they will be given the same
courteous consideration that any other
citizen of the county will receive in
making such inquiry, but if for po
litical or other similar reasons, an
"investigation” is contemplated by
your committee, that fact should be
openly stated so that there may be
no misunderstanding about the mat
ter.’
“Know Your County.”
The entire movement Is not asso
ciated with any immediate or recent
situation, political or otherwise, but
Is merely a further step In the 'know
your county’ program, which the
committee has persistently advocated
for over three (3) years.
“It is absolutely Impossible that
politics in any way be a motive or
enter into this survey, which Is
designated to be constructive and
helpful. It will be the policy of the
committee to submit all facts
gathered by the investigators to the
heads of the departments concerned
for complete corroboration before any
publicity is given to them.
“The representatives of the commit
tee will not work as outsiders, but as
employees of the public welfare com
mittee itself, and as such will act
entirely in that capacity and not as
an outside organization.
“The primary purpose of the public
welfare committee is first to know the
facts about what the government is
doing and how it is doing it, then
with knowledge of facts, to help to
organize public opinion in support of
officers who are trying to serve the
public efficiently.
“LABAN DENNTS.”
If the Board of Freeholders gives
consent at its next meeting, Thurs
day afternoon, the Bureau of Munici
pal Research and it® sponsors, the
public welfare committee, may go
ahead with its probe and study of
county offices and institutions.
Director Evans, after a conference
with the representatives of the would
be investigators yesterday afternoon
In the freeholders’ room in the Court
House, announced that he would refer
the matter to the board for action. Mr.
Evans refused to commit himself as
to how he regarded the proposed
'study,” pleading that he needed time
to think it over.
Much Assurance.
Profuse and positive assurances!
that there was no political signifi
cance attached to the scheme were
given by Dr. F. A. Cleveland, director
dt the Bureau of Municipal Research,
which has its offices in New York, and
by Dr. Dennis and Edward Blau, of
this city, members of the welfare
committee.
County Counsel Benjamin F. Jones
and Director Evans plied the three
speakers with questions regarding
the allaged happenings at the execu
tive session of last Friday, when the
welfare committee arranged with the
bureau to come to this county. The
conference was the result of the re
ported proceedings of this meeting.
The source of the funds and the ob
jects of the study were the principal
points upon which the county officials
sought light. Mr. Evans asked if it
were true, as reported in the newspa
pers, that there was to be secrecy
about the contributors to the expense
fund for bringing the research au
thorities here.
Mr. Dennis answered that the news
| paper reports were inaccurate and
produced a list of the contributors.
They were, he said: “Ex-Governor
Franklin Murphy, Felix Fuld, of I*
IS YOUR CHILD’S 1
TONGUE COATED?
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give “California Syrup
of Figs."
__ _•
Look at the tongue, mother! If
coated, it is a sure sign that your
little one’s stomach, liver and bowels |
need a gentle, thorough cleansing at
once.
When peevish, cross, listless, pale,
doesn’t sleep, doesn’t eat or act natu
rally, or is feverish, stomach sour,
breath bad; has stomach-ache, sore
throat, diarrhoea, full of cold, give a
teaspoonful of “California Syrup of
Figs,” and In a few hours all the foul,
constipated waste, undigested food
and sour bile gently moves out of its
little bowels without griping, and you
have a well, playful child again.
You needn’t coax six children to
take this harmless “fruit laxative;"
they love its delicious taste, and it
always makes them feel splendid.
Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bot
tle of “California Syrup of Figs.’’
which has directions for babies, chil
j dren of all ages and for grown-ups
plainly on the bottle. Beware of
counterfeits sold here. To be sure
i you get the genuine, ask to see that
! it is made by “California Fig Syrup
I Company.” Refuse any other kind
with contempt.
Bamberger & Co.;' William Hunt, of |
the Sunday Call, and myself, and an- j
other person, whose name I am not at i
j liberty to disclose, but who, I assure I
I vou, is not a politician.”
It is said that the “other person” is
Wallace M. Scudder, publisher of t'.v?
Newark News.
In answer to questions. Dr. Cleve
land declared his firm had never un
dertaken any work where muckraking
<*r politics were involved.
“You gentlemen are not familiar
with the gnme of politics in New Jer
sey and in this county,” County
Counsel Jones interjected. "There are
some very distinguished gentlemen
who would spend thousands of dol
lars to embarrass the Board of Free
holders or to gain control of it, and
they would not hesitate at using
respectable citizens as catspaws for
their schemes. There was a suspic
ion that the ‘fine Italian hand’ of a
professional politician appeared in
this.”
Would Give “Eye Teeth.”
Director Evans also referred to the
suspicion of the members of the
board. “As Judge Jones has told you
there are certain gentlemen who
would give their eyeteeth to ‘get’ the
Board of Freeholders.
“If you can convince the‘T)oard that
this is a helpful plan and not one
that is useless or if^erior In design I
am sure they will give the permission
to go ahead, but I can hardly see
what you intend to accomplish,” he
added.
Dr. Cleveland gave a brief outline
as to what the bureau would do in
the county and in the municipalities.
All reports would be submitted first
to the county officers concerned, and
then, if they wanted to, to the press
and the public. Recommendations for
changes in methods and for economy
would be made where it was found
necessary and praise would be given
where the systems were the best.
The report that the bureau and the
w’elfare committee had attacked the
school system was erroneous the
talker declared. He went on to v'ite
the work done by his concern in other
cities.
Among the others who were pres
ent during the conference, which was
an open one, were Freeholder John
Waters, Supervisor Edward Shick
haus, County Auditor Albert T. Guen-.
ther and W. A. Averill, of the Bureau
of Municipal Research.
$2,030,000 FOR
Congressman Scully Gets Larg
est Appropriation of Its
Kind Ever Granted.
NEW BRUNSWICK, Feb. 10.—Con
gressman Thomas J. Scully an
nounced yesterday in a telegram from
Washington that he had just suc
ceeded in obtaining the biggest Fed
eral appropriation for New Jersey
waterways ever granted in the his
tory of the government.
The rivers and harbors committee,
with Congressman Scully a big fac
tor in its work, finished the rivers
and harbors appropriation bill and
the measure is now in the hands of
the public printer and will be re
ported to the House within a short
time.
Incorporated in this bill is an ap
propriation of $784,000 for the im
provement of the Raritan river, the
first amount to be expended on the
work being $250,000 and the balance
as the work progresses.
Three other new projects have been
granted and are incorporated in the j
bill: Shrewsbury river, $295,000; Mata- !
wan creek, $72,000; Shoal harbor and 1
Compton creek, $56,000. For Staten j
Island sound, which benefits New
Brunswick, Perth Amhoy and sur- \
rounding country, an appropriation
of $500,000 has been allowed to carry
on the work already begun, and for
Newark bay and Passaic river $242,
000 has been allowed, and $81,000 has
been allowed for maintenance of cer
tain harbors and creeks in the State.
Those who know the situation in
Washington declare there is no ques
tion of this bill being passed intact.

The Fairest Fashion
Furbelows of Early Spring
Long before the first buds come or the
first robin makes his appearance do we
show the earliest fashion thoughts for
milady's Spring wardrobe.
The new Spring millinery is simply de
lightful; hats are small for the most part
and oddly tilted sidewise or forward.
The new dress goods and silks are more
beautiful and more charming than ever.
The new tailored suits are as rakish and
smart as they possibly can be; the tai
lored skirts (some of them at least)
revel in the extremeness of their bouf
fant fullness.
Blouses are made with more fullness
than ever and an amazing paucity of
seams.
Jackets have attained an indescribable
jauntiness.
All these tendencies may be noted at a glance
among the new things here—and which are arriv
ing even faster than we know how to o repare
them for your enjoyment, keeping one at tip toeto
guess what is coming next.
