the cost OF new roads In the state,
and II the governor favors the state
taking over still more of the ex-
pense of the highways, it is hard to
understand how he reconciles his
position with his veto Of the bridge
bill.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-04-30
BRIDGE BILL VETO.

Just why the governor has seen
fit to veto the bill providing that the
state shall pay one-third the yearly
cost in maintaining the county
bridge over the Raritan river, has
not been learned here. Probably the
governor has some good reasons for
his action. The fact remains, how
ever, that this bill was along the
line of recommendations made by
the governor to a party of south
Jerseymen, who waited on him at a
hearing on the automobile reciproc-
ity bill, in an effort to persuade him
to veto that measure.
1t was pointed out to the governor
ht that hearing that to allow the
Apads Of New Jersey to be used by
Aoists from other states without
|nse would mean a great increase
the wear and tear of the high
ways and thus add greatly to the
expense of maintenance which falls
almost entirely on tina taxpayers 0:
the various counties, rae governor
told these men thnt they should de
vote their energies to having the
state assume the expense of MAIN
tanning most Of the roads which
would relieve the taxpayers in the
respective counties. The governor
then signed the reciprocity bill
which made is possible for the New
Jersey highways to be used so free
ly by the autoists of New York and
Pennsylvania as we'll as every other
state.
1t is safe to say that the county
bridge, across the Raritan river be-
tween the two Amboys, is used more
by autoists from outside Middlesex
eunty that It is by the people who
forced to pay the expense of
ntainlng the structure. 1t might
even said that the New York
Itoists who are permitted TO come
o the state without ~hindrance,
this structure as much II not
than do local residents. There

REMEMBER.

This is cleanup week in Perth
Amboy. Don't use the rain as an
excuse for doing nothing. Here is
some inspiration from Long Branch
where much was accomplished in
spite of the rain:
despite the handicap of the most
unfavorable weather possible at this
time of year, the Clean-Up Crusade
here has been a most pronounced
success.
There has been a truly wonder
full improvement effected IN the APP
peRrance of the city in the past two
weeks.
1T has taken hard work to do
this, and symstematic work, too.
Everyone who did anything de-
serves praise. The assistance of the
street department of the city gov
eminent was indispensable. What
the schools did was a big factor.
And the help of every individual
who cleaned up his or her own
premises counted not alone for the
actual results but for the Inspiration
that II afforded to others. But the
women who engineered the enter
prise are entitled to the lions share
of the glory of the achievement. 1t
was their energy and enterprise and
practical Judgment which made it
all possible. The originator of the
idea, too, should not be overlooked,
1t was DR.. A. Leo Blaisdell who first
suggested 1t and Record editorials
based on his suggestion that got the
movement under way.
but there's glory enough for all.
And the principal point of interest
is that so much has been accomplish
ed In the interest of Long Branch"

Ing Members Of the Mems
Forward Move
ment,
ABOUT CITY CHARITY
And the Lack Of Proper Effort and
Methods In Work on
Many Needed
Lines.
ABOUT CITY CHARITY

( In a casual talk with one of the
leading members of the Men and Re-
ligion Forward movement this morn
ing he said:
.The completion of the social sur
vey of the Men and Religion Forward
movement for this city brings again
to the attention of religious workers
of this city the entire absence of any
organization of charitable effort as
we'll as the utter lack of any cam
paign for the remedying of tubercu-
losis. While other cities within the
scope of this movement in this dis
trict are organizing and making their
charitable work more efficient by the
establishment Of free employment
agencies, visiting nurses associations
and other means Of tried efficiency,
Keokuk has nothing of the Sort
! The newspaper man was a little
surprised at this statement and the
forward movement worker continued:
Among other facts the survey has
| for the reclamation of the prisoners
| in the city and county jail, that no
probation system exists, and that if
the big brother" movement that has
been SO successful elsewhere as a
means of helping juvenile delinquents
is at work In this city it certainly is
keeping itself we'll under cover"
In conclusion the movement worker
said:
The social service committee of
| the organization has copies of this
survey for every church in the city
cooperating, and it was stated today
that the survey itself shows an OPP
/ portunity for not only educational
work and church work, but for city
effort, including the enforcement OF
certain health laws, that would af-
for an outlet for any OF the energies
of men or women who want to serve
their fellows"
i Aware Of the fact that they had
made some broad statements that
might be subject to doubt or contro
4 versy, he said that he could substan
l tiate every statement he had made
4 with incontrovertible testimony.

CHICAGO, March There was no
decided tendency in prices today and
the markets seems to continue mark
ing time until the governments bulle-
tin on farm reserves is received to-
morrow. Wheat prices opened on a
bulge but eased on refNEts of heayi-
ness in Northwestern markets. Re
ceipts at Minneapolis are smaller than
q year ago, but stocks there decreas-
ed only 10000 bushels for five days
as against a reduction of 100000
bushels a year ago.
The failure Of bullish demonstration
at the opening disappointed the hold
ers OF long contracts in corn. The
forecast is for rain and snow and the
bulls look for heavier feeding which
will boost prices. Cables report high
er prices in Europe.
