Matter of Branch From Me-
tuchen to Perth &mboy
Will Come Up Later

At a conference of the State High
ways Commission held in the office
of Acting Governor James F. Field
er, at Trenton, yesterday afternoon,
the commission decided to make the
state highway from Trenton to New
Brunswick to conform with the plan
advocated by the Affiliated Boards
of Trade OF Middlesex county, the
Brunswick Board of Trade and the
Perth Amboy Board of Trade. AS q
result of the conference, the commits
sioners agreed that the highway be-
tween the above mentioned cities
would be much shorter by adopting
the plan advocated by the different
boards Of trade. The other plan
was for the highway to take detour
around by Princeton. which would
have cut out \ great deal of Middle
sex county, leaving only little
stretch Of the state highway In this
county where the road enters New
Brunswick.
Wilbur G. Miller, chairman of the
General Committee of the Board of
Trade, of this city, spoke to State
Road Commissioner Stevens about
the branch Of the state highway sys-
tenn to lead from Metuchen to Perth
AmbOy, but Mr.. Stevens stated that
would have to be considered later.
The conference was called to ex-
pressly consider the route of the
highway between the state capital
and New Brunswick
No money Is available for the
work on the state highways until
after May /, Immediately after which
date the building or reconstructing
of roads for state highways viii bo
started
From the plan for state highways
Perth Amboy VIII receive It's share
Of benefit from the innovation. The
state highway will begin at Trenton
run to New Brunswick, thence to
Railway and continue through the
northern part of the state. At Rah-
way road will lead south to Perth
Amboy and across the bridge into
Monmouth county to the shore.
The Highways Commission was
created by the legislature following
the plan for state and national high
ways which are to connect all the
Capitals of the different states and
converge into main trunk road
leading to Washington.

EXTRA WAGONS
FOR CLEANUP

An extra large amount of garbage
produced by cleanup week today
caused the garbage collecting con-

team to aid in the removal of rub
bish. Scenes along many streets
yesterday afternoon and last night
proved conclusively that the general
public is taking advantage of the oc-
casion and effecting cleanup in
their households and back yards.
The public is urged by Mayor
Garretson, originator of the cleanup
idea in this city, to take heed of the
notice and effectively clean their
homes, particularly cellars, attics and
back yards as well as other places
where rubbish may accumulate.
