AFTER TRIP
Preparing Statement of Visit
to Washington D. C.

After attending all the sessions of
the rivers and harbors congress
which adjourned yesterday after a
three days session in Washington
Mayor BollschWeiler returned last
evening highly enthusiastic over the
meeting and the possibilities which
may result in future years from the
beginning made In his representing
Perth Amboy at this years congress.
The mayor is preparing a detailed
statement of his Washington trip
which will be ready In few days.

up with the waterways convention
that he was unable to attend the
unveiling of the Baron Steuben

dent Justus Kaletsch, of the Health
Board; Shade Tree Commissioner
John Kutcher and others.
The. mayor thinks that the Board
Of Trade is very lax In not having a
representative at the waterways con-
vention. All towns with waterway
interests, stated the mayor, not only
had their mayors present as dele
gates, but also had Board of Trade
delegates present.

closed after adopting resolutions
urging the appropriation annually of
at least s50,000,000 for impreye-
ment of rivers and harbors and petit
tioning congress to increase materi-
ally the corps of engineers Of the
army.
The resolutions also set forth that
it ought to be cardinal principle of
waterway Improvement that no pro-
ject should be adopted by congress
which has not received the approval
of the army engineers. The resolu-
tions also recommended the enlarge
ment of the powers of the Interstate
Commerce Commission to the end
that the commission may more eff
fectually regulate competing land
and water carriers.
Representative Joseph e. Rams
dell, of Louisiana, was reelected
president of the congress, and ]. F.
