Aid Squad Has'Heavy' Case

SEVEN CALLED UP

FOR DRAFT QUOTA

Jamesburg. — Seven men havebeen called up by Draft Board No.7 to receive physical examinationsin Newark next Tuesday under the20th selective service quota.,

The men passed by the armyphysicians in Newark next Tues-day will be eligible to be inductedinto the army at Fort Dix a fewweeks later.

They are:William Owens, Jamesburg.Rudolph Werner, Jamesburg.Britton Schulmeister, Matawan.Robert Rubenstein, Jamesburg.Francis Bohnyak, Jamesburg.Kurt Schlacht, Jamesburg.John Warren, Kingston.

A really varied experience is be-ing acquired by members of theMonmouth Junction First AidSquad in their work of mercy.

The latest episode in the seriesof unusual calls involved a 350-pound woman hurt in an automo-bile accident on Route 25 nearDeans last Friday.

Summoned after the car inwhich the obese woman was ridingcollided with a truck, the Squadrendered first aid and rushed theinjured person to Middlesex Hos-pital where members were asked tostay and assist with the surture ofher wounds, which required 54stitches.

Because the pain from thistreatment was severe and the wo-man could not remain still whiledoctors stitched the wounds, the lo-cal First Aiders had to forcibly re-strain her. Several times shefainted and had to be revived.

Pain-relieving drugs for somereason failed to deaden the wo-man's pain sensations, and it wasbecause of this that the First Aidmembers were asked by the doc-tors to hold the patient still.

The obese woman, one of a par-ty riding in the wrecked machine,

ALLGAIR PICKED

TO SUCCEED EGAN

New Brunswick. — William A.Allgair, treasurer of Middlesexcounty and former Mayor of SouthRiver, was officially nominated forsheriff on the Democratic ticket ata special meeting of the Democra-tic county committee. Allgair suc-ceeds the late Commissioner JosephV. Egan wfco was nominated ifjrparty at tVk September primary e-lection.

County ChairmanJohnson filed with

Edward J.the County

Clerk. Edward J. Patten copies ofresolutions adopted by the com-mittee designating Allgair as thesheriff nominee and the acceptanceof the candidate. He made a formalrequest that the name of Allgairbe printed on the general electionballot.

Allgair was placed in nominationby Mayor John F. Fitzpatrick whodeclared that he came from an oldline Democratic family and had al-

I ways give nvaliant support to allDemocrats in the borough. "BillAllgair is responsible for my entryinto politics," said Fitzpatrick, whoadded that the Democratic organ-ization in the borough would givea good account of itself as it hasdone in the past.

The nomination was secondedby John White of Perth Amboy,deputy court clerk.

Registration in South BrunswickTownship was closed on Tuesdaywith a total of 1,184 persons qual-ified to cast ballots in the Novem-ber election.

Figures by districts are as fol-lows:

District No. I (Dayton), 275.District No. 2 (Monmouth Junc-

tion). 277.District No. 3 (Kingston), 334.District No. 4 (Deans), 298.In comparison with the present

total, last year's registration was1,919, or about 40 per cent high-er.

Since October 7 was the finaldate set by law for registrationunder the permanent registrationsystem that went into effectthroughout Middlesex County thisyear, the result will be that this40 per cent will be unable to votein November.

Some quarters fear that somemembers of this unregisteredgroup may complain that they arebeing deprived of their Americanright to vote should they decideto try to participate in the generalelection.

However, others points out that re-

a fair election procedure, anrf tnafthe restrictive measures, such as afinal registration date well in ad-vance of the election, are one of thenecessary steps. Again, this sameline of thought reasons that undermost circumstances those personswho did not trouble themselves toregister probably will not evinceenough interest in the election toattempt to vote.

PTA PresidencyStill Vacant

Mrs. Fred Williams of South Ri-ver, the Middlesex County Chair-man of Parent and Teacher As-sociations, met with the parents andfriends of the pupils in the Mon-mouth Junction school on Wednes-day evening and in an informaltalk explained the many advant-ages of such an organization.

Owing to lack of co-operationand the unwillingness of local peo-ple to take the responsibilities ofbeing a president up to the presenttime, no organization has beenformed for 1941-42 in this school.

Mrs. Williams is trying to clearthis situation and the nominatingcommittee, Mrs. Elizabeth Weaver,Mrs. William Voorhees, Mrs. FredFenchel and Mrs. Michael Brabson,is working to make a favorablereport in the near future.

New Jersey "Hatch Act" NeededIf past elections! can be considered a reliable index, voters will see re-

newed evidence in the fall election campaigns of the need for laws to"prevent pernicious political activity" by public jobholders.

When Congress passed the Federal "Hatch Act" trying the hands ofFederal officers and employees in political contests it demonstrated thatlaws of this type can be enacted. The New Jersey Taxpayers Associa-tipn advocates comparable legislation applying to state, county and mun-icipal officials of New Jersey.

Although progress has been slow, important improvements have beenmade in this state. Certain state officials are already affected by theFederal law. Among these are administrative heads of departmentssuch as State Highway and Unemployment Compensation, which re-ceives funds from the Federal government.

Passage in 1940 of the state law restricting political activity of mem-bers of local welfare departments of the 75 municipalities in the higherrelief brackets placed restrictions upon another group of public employ-ees. Effectiveness, of this law is indicated in a recent report by theMunicipal Aid Administration that "more than 60 members of one wel-fare department were forced to resign their positions as county com-mitteemen, ward chairmen, etc., as a result of enforcement of the 1940law."

Several days ago Alcoholic Beverage Commissioner Alfred E. Dris-coll issued an important ruling which clamps' down on political activitiesby employees of his department. The ruling states that any employeeassociated with him in the administration of the alcoholic beverage law"must determine whether he prefers to be a County committeeman or anofficer of the department." In effect it serves notice that mixing politics

with liquor enforcement is definitely against public policy and will notbe permitted.

It is well to keep in mind, then,the value of having children ex-amined by physician. So, now thatthe schools are open for the sea-son, it would be well to see to itthat your children and all with whomthey will come in contact at homeand at school are examined by aphysician, preferably by their fami-ly doctor and that his recommenda-tions are carried out.

"Life is short, and the artlong; the occasion fleeting; ex-perience fallacious, and judg-ment difficult. The physicianmust not only be prepared todo what is right himself, butalso to make the patient, theattendants, and externals co-operate."—Hippocrates.

make the examinations and carryout the immunization programs,etc., incident to the "Round-Ups."He should also prescribe what maybe needed for the prevention of dis-ease and for the correction of any de-fects that may be found in anymember of the family. Because ofhis intimate knowledge of the childand of the family, he is much betterable to differentiate between func-tional and organic disorders and todetect slight abnormalities than is astrange physician, no matter howeminent a specialist the latter maybe.

The "Pre-School and SummerRound-Ups" are important not onlyas a method of taking stock of thehealth of the children of a commu-nity and of making sure that eachand every child is vaccinated andimmunized against diphtheria; butalso because they call attention tothe need for similar "Round-Ups"of those with whom the childrencome in contact.

—From wood cut of an old painting.

SYMBOLIC of our own dark nights and the light of day forwhich all humanity hopes, is the painting shown here

and the lines quoted from Joaquin Miller's famous poemabout Columbus.

That was a dark night—before the sight of land and thegreat discovery that the world need not be the narrow,pinched, uninspired thing it had been thought to be. "Paleand wan," Columbus was on deck and "peered through dark-ness." It took a long time for the light to break through.There were harrowing hours. There were moments of doubtand despair before October 12, 1492 dawned—four hundredand forty-nine years ago.

"And then a light—a light." Even as now we pray for it.When it came after that fearful night for Columbus, "it grewto be time's burst of dawn," and he gained a world! Nodarkness but what has its dawn—whether in 1492 or'in ourown times.
