Camden is greatly concerned over the efforts of the firemen to get n better schedule of hours. All the business men nnd business men's associations are standing behind the fight of the firemen for easier hours., Yesterday the Cam den Ministerial Association Indorsed the firemen's plea at their meeting and passed a resolution asking Council to grnnt the request. The case of the firemen will be pre sented nt the committee meeting by n committee chosen to represent all the firemen of Camden. The chairman and spokesmnn of the committee will be Lieutenant Willinm Itose. Other mem bers of the committee represent all rnnks In tho fire department. They nrp Itat tnllon Chief George Wade, Captain John I.utts. Engineer NewtonG. Ash. Hosemnn Harry Leigh, Ladderman Chester Price and Stoker Albert Hay don. On Duty nt All Times The present sjstem prevailing In the Camden fire department requires that the men be on duty at all times, ready to respond to fire calls day or night. The men themselves find it a hardship physically, as they rarely can remove their clothing for a good night's rest, and their families complain bitterly, that it makes the head of the house a stranger in his own home. At present every fireman is given one day oft in live. It is desired to introduce a two-bnt-tnlion system, under which the men wiH bo twelve hniira on duty nnd twelvo hours off in evert twenty-four. It In l,lltal tI,at to do this will require nn .n . . .... ,m,. ' ,i an extra force of between fifty and seventj men, and will cost the tax payers from seven to eight cents extra on tbe hundred. Fire Chief Peter Carter, head of the Camden department, snld today that he was heartily In sympathy with the men's request for a two-battalion sys tem, and would do nil In his power to promote it. He said that if Council np piovfs the proposed chnnge he will do his best to so nrrange thnt the num ber of extra men needed will be kept to n minimum. Mnynr Ellis likewise favors the two battalion sjstem. He said that when the fire committee presents the ptoject to Council he will do everything lie can to get it onncted and iuMorce by the end of the cnr. Hought Best Equipment "Years iigo, when I wns a member of tbe fire committee," said the mayor, "I made it mv business to get the best equipment I could for the Camden fire department.

WOMAN SAVES SON'S LIFE Quick Action Prevents Death of Child That Eats Poison -A mother's quick action saved the life of her five-year-old son in Camden this morning.
