MacDonald, of Freehold, acting chief, of the bureau ot local health administration, in the state department of health today addressed the convention of the New Jersey Public Health Officers' association. He spoke on "Health Administration in Small Communities of New-Jersey 'Public health work in New Jersey as LOCAL HAPPENINGS contemplated by statutes 1 primarily a municipal function, the conduct ot which is lodged with the local board ot health in each township or Incorporated municipality In the state," Mr. MacDonald said. "That the prevention of disease and the promotion of health is of paramount importance needs no discussion. Today matters pertaining to health promotion both as applied to groups and to individuals elicit interest and a public response which is truly remarkable.

"Activities of official health departments are undergoing realignment and are being extended in scope. Other official branches of government, national, state and local, are adding to their activities some phase of health work, usually restricted in character, but still within the sphere of health. Unofficial and voluntary organizations undertaking some type of health work are broad- ening their scope ot activities and increasing in number. "The development of health work in governmental departments and by voluntary organizaitons within the past 10 years has been rapid, extensive and in some Instances aggressive. This has been due to many factors, Including the increased interest ot the average citizen in public health, and a more general realization of its importance added to a willingness on the part of many persons to share their prosperity with others 4 by contributing time and funds, particularly to voluntary organizations interested in helping others to protect their health.

"What of our local boards of health thruout the state during this period of development of public health actlv-Itles? Have all of them kept pace with the changing conditions and are they all prepared to carry on In a creditable manner, and to keep abreast with future developments? Stock taking and balance sheets are essential In business. Unfortunately, because of the character of the raw material, the nature of the products or results and the long period of manufacture or application, the most expert system of human bookkeeping we have, yet devised falls short of permitting us to measure definitely the profits or loss from expenditures In the public health field.

This year will be the first time that New Jersey National guard troops have mobilized at Camp Dlx. During the World war Camp Dlx was the scene of the organization and training of the 78th division, national army troops.

COUNTY FIREMEN TO MEET SUNDAY SEA GIRT CAMP TO OPEN JULY 6 Denies Hand In Delay of Measure Sponsored By Opponent, Sterner. W. Warren Barbour, of Rumson, this morning denied that he or his friends had obstructed the Rarltan bay bridge project being pushed by Assemblyman E. Donald Sterner, in connection with the fight looming between the two for the Republican state senatorial nomination. The statement was in reply to a story in yesterday's Press of a meeting of the Tri-County Municipal association, at which the "smothering" of the Sterner bill in the house steering com-mittee was scored, and the opinion was expressed that the bill was being used as a "political football." In a statement to The Press this morning, Barbour hot only denied the implication that he or his backers Would Interfere with legislation sponsored by the other man, in order to weaken his position, but took a stand In favor of the bill in question.

His statement follows: "In last evening's edition of The Asbury Park Press it was stated that in order to further my candidacy for state senator, assembly Joint resolution No, 16, providing for a survey to be made by the Port Authority for the construction of a proposed bridge from Staten Island across Rarltan bay to a point at or near Keyport, is being obstructed by "unseen powers' in order to interfere with Assemblyman Sterner's efforts to further this project. "This is not so, and I resent even the intimation that either I or any of my friends Interested in my candidacy would interfere in any way with this or any other legislation which might prove beneficial to Monmouth county, "Without passing Judgment at this time on the merits or demerits of this proposed bridge, I am firmly of the opinion that a survey would provide the Information necessary to determine the practicability of the undertaking. Tnto. I am informed, is all that the resolution provides for. "I want to make it entirely clear that neither my candidacy nor that of any other individual is as important as Uje proper and orderly advancement of legislation dealing with the taxpayers' interests." DEBT PARLEY A FAILURE, LEADER DIES OF STRAIN (Coamned frea aa mi committee adjourn out of respect to Lord Revelstokes memory to meet at 11 o'clock next Monday morning.

For the moment the utter deadlock which the experts had reached because of their inability to strike a compro mise between the demand of the Allied creditor powers and the Germtn offer for reparations was forgotten. Yet un derneath, there was some feeling, how ever slight, that Lord Revelstoke'i death, by giving the experts several days to think over the situation, might result In some llth-hour salvation for the vital negotiations. This hope, perhaps chiefly sentiment al In Its origin, could do little to dispel the gloom around the George hotel caused by the sudden death of the Brit' Ish banker, and the lack of real hope of again being able to pick up the negotiations for a reparations settlement with any chance of success. There was a certain amount of ac tlvlty In the German delegation tending to promote the theory that the German proposal of 37 annuities of 1,650,000,000 marks (about $396,000,000) was not so closely tied up with political consldera tions as had been deduced by the other experts. The allied and American delegates refused to enter Into any discussion of the commission's work during the ad' Joumment and above all to engage in any controversy with the German dele gation over their proposal.

Task Only To Report Failure There will be no activity of any sort during the adjournment of the commit tee, it was said, since nothing apparent' ly remains except to take formal cog nlzance of the committee's failure and to draw up reports to the respective governments explaining why. Theee had been some doubt as to whether the Germans would even attend today's plenary session, but this was dispelled by their arrival. It was stated that the Germans had decided to attend Monday's meeting and to participate in drafting the committee's report. This report will review the work of the commission and in it will be incorporated the scheme for an international bank and the plan of payments with the schedule of annuities proposed by the creditor countries. It will also comprise Germany's offer with an explana tion of how the experts found it impossible to proceed with its consideration.

The German delegation will be given an opportunity either to approve the document or to submit a minority re port. In that case both the documents will go to the governments from whom the experts received their mission and then It will be an affair of diplomacy to determine the subsequent steps. Comment In French circles on the situation was to the effect that Dr. Schacht, by refusing to increase the German offer in an effort to meet the allied claims, had relieved the French experts of all necessity of straining a point and making further sacrifices to meet the Germans which would have been the case had the latter shown a disposition to come half way. French See Treaty meal Stake In French nationalist circles Dr.

Schacht, in fact, was declared to have opened the eyes of the French people to the real character of the German negotiations. These, they said, were proven materially to tend not only to repudiation of part of the reparations debt, but also to revision of the treaty of Versailles. The American experts as well as the others declined to express themselves as to the situation produced by the German attitude. Mr, Young and Thomas W. Lamont are making no new plans for the moment while J.

P. Morgan Is still cruising in tho Adriatic. He is expected back in Paris some time next week. S. Parker Gilbert, the agent-general for reparations, la the man upon whom event are likely to center with the passing ol the present reparations commission.

Dr. Bchacht's declaration that the reich would ask for the bene fit of the transfer clause la Uu Dawte 1 more than even the allied proposal had envisaged. The German stand has been, however, that the Dawes plan provided specifically for guarding against reparations payments in excess of Germany's capa city to pay, and it is upon this pro vision that the future discussions will probably center. Dr. Bchacht's atand came after a committee of eight headed by Lord Revels toke and containing Owen Young had met to attempt a reconcil iation of the German offer of less than $7,000,000 (present value) against the allied terms of around $10,000,000,000 (present value).

Dr. SchachLAlmost lmmedlately-aftldt that under no circumstances could Germany increase the size of Its annuities beyond 1,850,000,000 marks (about $396,000,000) and for any longer than 37 years. Even these payments were possible, he declared, only If the allies made it possible for Germany to in crease her ability to pay by giving ac cess to raw materials and other re sources of which she was now prlv ed. The inference obtained by his listen' era was that he sought return of the Polish corridor, Dancing, the Saar val ley, and Upper Silesia, or, in other words sought to make a business argee-ment contingent upon a political revision of the Treaty of Versailles. An agreement on such a base was, of course, entirely outside the scope of the conference, The delegates from the Allied nations pleaded with him.

Dr. Emlle Moreau of France pointed out that Just 000,000 marks (about $36,000,000) se parated his offer of 1,650,000,000 marks and the first annuity In the allied offer of marks. Dr. Schacht was firm, however, and refused to budge from his position. He was then told flatly his stand meant breakdown of the conference and reversion to the Dawes plan, under which Germany must pay 2,500,000.000 marks (about $600,000,000) annuities, subject to Immediate increase under the prosperity Index.

Yesterday, Newman said, 19 carpenters and a fore man were working on the Job, and probably more would be brought down today four of the men had union cards, according to a union Inspector, whlie the others were non-union men gathered from surrounding localities. Carpenters, so far, have made no move to handle that situation, beyond "advising" men not to work for $10 a day.

Carpenters last night reaffirmed their stand that there was no "strike" in progress. No carpenter was called off his Job, they said, but all were "ad vised" to knock off work until the $12 demand was met. Hence, it was not a case subject to compromise, they said, as the men quit of their own free will because they would not work for less than $12. The number of men who have knock ed eff work and now report dally to the carpenters' headquarters in Wlnck-ler hall, 717 Mattlson avenue, is about 200, according to union officials. More than 150 were present last night, they said, when the committee of Master Builders arrived for the meeting.

Master Builders stated this morning that they were somewhat taken back at the rigid, uncompromising attitude of the Journeymen. The masters of today were the Journeymen of yesterday, they pointed out, and they had hoped for an understanding on that basis that would lead to an early settlement.
