The PORT OF PERTH AMBOY.

THE PORT OF PERTH AMBOY.
A short time ago, in discussing the
appointment of a collector for the
port of Perth Amboy, the Asbury
Park Press was rash enough to sug-
| gest that it would be better for
Uncle Sam if the office were abol-
ished altogether. Our contempor-
airy evidently had been reading
about Egg Harbor, Burlington and
| some of the other lesser ports in the
state where the revenue collected
amounted to about $13 a year while
it cost the government nearly ST.
200 to maintain the office,
We would refer anyone who has
an idea hat the port of Perth Am
boy is more of a burden than a help
to the government, to the report
of the collector which is about to
be issued for the year just closing.
| This report shows that nearly a half
million dollars in revenue vas Ia
| ken in for the United States govern
ment during the twelve months. To
be exact, the total collections at
Perth Amboy for the year ending
June 80, amounted to S492, 567.S5.
The interesting feature about this is
that it shows an increase of $780,
5O4.93 over last year. Going back
still further to 1909, the customs
collected here this year show an in
crease of s322,369.19 over two
years ago. 1t is hardly likely that
Uncle Sam will consider any propo-
sition to close the port of Perth AM
boy as long as such growth contln-
ues. And there is every reaso to
believe that the increase will con-
tinue. New industries are being
established in this section all the
time. Many of these plants will i'm
port the raw products to be refined
and manufactured here. Uncle Sam
will have his inspectors on hand to
see that the proper duty is paid.
1t is getting to be a common sight
to see ocean steamships in the har-
Dor. Hardly a week goes by but
what two or three arrive, while
others are departing. The port of
Perth Amboy now leads the state
and is only exceeded by such cities
as New York, Philadelphia, Boston,
and a few other of the largest ports.
No, we do not believe the govern
ment will entertain the suggestion
that the port of Perth Amboy be
abolished just yet.

COMMERCE. ON

beginning to bear fruit, Nhe
captain started his agitation in the
state legislature last winter, the
Pennsylvania railroad, which con
trolls the canal, has been reducing the
rates of toll on the waterway in a
ann that would indicate that the
company is panic-stricken. While
the rate is not as low as it might
be, according to some who are IA
miliar with such tolls, yet it is be-
lieved the reduction ia sufficient to
restore commerce to the canal. An
evidence of this is the fact hal q
representative of New York capital
lists has been in New Brunswick and
Trenton recently with the idea of
putting a feet of vessels on the canal
to run to New York. There is no
doubt that this would furnish well
come competition in transportation.
1t Is likely that the railroad Will en-
deavor to discourage this by
neglecting the waterway in
the way of repairs and also, by
making it as difficult as possible for
the boat lines to secure terminals.
Perhaps If the attention Of the Pub
lie Utilities Commission were called
to this, a remedy could be found.
Under proper regulation and care
there is no doubt that the canal can
be restored to it's old-time useful
ness.
