May Agitate to
Annex FOrds TO
"Greater Citv'

An agitation, which may be fol-
lowed by petition to the present
legislature, has been started at Fords
and Ellendale Terrace for the extern
sion of the Perth Amboy city line to
include those places.
A prominent resident of Fords this
morning declared that action to have
this done would probably follow the
present agitation. He said that SEN
timent had been rife in favor of such
a change since the big dairy barn
burned In Florida Grove road on
the Woodbridge side of the boundary
line, early last month. Perth Am
boy fremen put out the flames.
which then threatened to destroy the
nome on the farm, near the barn.
The citizens OF Fords said that the
Woodbridge tax rate was considera-
bly, higher than that for Perth Am
boy. and that they do not get any
thing for their, money. He said that
the burning of the dairy barn was
an illustration of the poor fire pro-
lection in that section, and declar-
ed that the district of Woodbridge
township was sighted in many other
ways.
