SCHOOL SAVINGS DEPOSITS

The bill now pending in the Legislature,
making it legal in this state for public school
departments to conduct authorized savings
bank accounts, is worthy of much consider
alton We believe that the boys and girls
should be taught to save as well as read and
write and take care of their bodies
A great lesson could be taught by assuring
them that money deposited in this way would
be the same rs placing it in the bank, and
when they quit school they could draw out
the amount to their credit, or have deposit
slip of the bank in which the money has been
placed turned over to them
We all know what great rivalry exists be-
tween children, and this would act as an in
centive in seeing who could have the largest
account to their credit. In this way pennies,
Inickels and dimes that would never be placed
in the average child's bank at home, would
find their way into the school savings deposit.
Nearly every boy or girl has some way of
earning few pennies now and then and some
times money is given them. IF it could be
made their ambition to pile up as big an ac-
count as possible in the school deposits so as
to beat the other fellow, they would receive a
training that would mean much to them in
future life.

THAT TROLLEY PETITION

That petition asking for trolley service
which the Western Improvement Association
is causing to be circulated, ought to have a
great deal Of influence. 1t will first go to the
two trolley companies operating in this city.
They ought to be able to see their own ad-
vantage in making such an extension, as we'll
as the advantage it would be to the public.
There can be no doubt that trolley line oper-
hted through the northwestern section Of the
city would be a paying proposition from the
start. But as soon as the cars are running,
hundreds of more people will locate in that
section, for it is admitted to be one of the most
desirable in Perth Amboy. The one great OBJ
lection to it and the one great reason why it
is not being built up still faster is because of
the distance from the business section and the
lack of facilities for getting back and forth
This affects the men going to and from work
as we'll as the women who desire to reach the
stores to do their shopping.
But if the trolley companies refuse to grant
the request for additional trolley service, we
believe the petition that is now being circul-
ated would be great object lesson before
the Public Utilities Commission. In former
years the people were entirely at the mercy Of
the transportation corporations regarding ac-
commodations, for when they refused to do a
thing no matter how much justice there might
be i'll the request, there was no redress. Now,
however, there is state board to represent
the people, which has power over the public
service corporations and the people stand a
better chance to get justice. We do not be-
Heve the Public Utility Commission will per-
nit large well-settled territory to be neglect
ed as far as transportation facilities are con-
cerned when there are trolley lines operating
on the main streets Of the city where such ter
ritory is found. It is plain that separate
company could not operate a single belt line
such as the one in question, therefore the cor
poration which maintains the trolley through
the business section of the city should be COM
PEELED to meet the public demand. To that
end, if the petition of the Western Improve
ment Association is ignored by the trolley
companies, it ought to be laid before the Pub
lie Utility Commission for whatever action
that body might care to take Once it is thus
placed before that board, it should have the
backing of the entire city.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1913-03-10

the whole $19,000,000 project will be adopted
This includes thirty-foot channel up the bay
from Sandy Hook to this port.
Since the adoption by the government of
this project a number of very important in
dustrial developments have taken place on
both sides of the channel, and there is every
reason to believe that within a few years the
banks of the Staten Island sound would be
lined with factories, bringing to this locality
a large population and vast amount Of
business.
1t is estimated by those who have studied
the situation that the population of New York
city will have passed that Of London by 1915
and that the committing area of New York,
which includes this waterway will be not less
than 25,000,000 by 1850. 1t is the belief Of
those who are working for the improvements
of the channel that the Staten Island sound is
destined soon to rank first in the world with
respect to tonnage.
All this has great meaning for Perth Am
boy. We should not lose any time in prepar-
ing this city for the great developments of
the immediate future. The city would do well
to buy up any real estate that can be found
bound to increase.

DEEPER CHANNEL ASSURED

Few people realize what narrow escape
the waterway appropriation bill had, which
carried with it the money for beginning the
deeper waterway for the Staten Island sound.
1t is understood that President Taft was high
ly displeased with some of the provisions of
this bill and had a veto message all written for
it, but was finally induced to sign the measure
at the last moment before quitting Office, by
General Bixby, chief of engineers.
AS the matter now stands 100000 will be
available soon for tue deepening of the water
way through the sound and it is believed by
those who have been following the measure
closely that it is only asmatter Of time hefort

COMMENT BY THE Press
FIXING FERRY FARES.


The United States Supreme Court yesterday disposed
OF the claim of the Board of Chosen Freeholders
Hudson county to have authority to fix ferry tolls
tween New Jersey and New York by announcing that
the regulation OF ferries State boundary rivers
was entrusted under the constitution to the federal
government to the exclusion OF the States. The
Supreme Court decision annuls that of the New Jersey
Supreme Court, which declared the freeholders had,
under the authority of the State granted in 1893
right to fix single and round trip fare ferries
this State to New York the Hudson river. This
decision will prevent the Camden Board of Freeholders
from further demands the Camden and Philadelphia
Ferry Company to reduce the ferry fare under the
