eff we become suburbs to Atlantic
City we shall be satisfied" said the
speaker. "They do things in Atlantic
county. When they want something
they take of their coats and go to work.
There will be four roads funneling into
Atlantic City within a short time"
The cost of the system of bridges and
roadway, as proposed by MI. Risley,
would be between $500, 900 and 5000, 600,
he said, and the county is amply able
to do the work by a bond issue.
Judge Hildreth, after saying he was
glad to be there and hear what has been
said by Mr.. Risley, declared that every
man has a hobby, and his hobby is the
subject of the mosquito. The mosquito
Is a menace to the communities in the
county and is a proper subject for
thoughtful consideration. We should
have the board of freeholders make an
appropriation and secure State aid.
Good results will follow.
Senator Wheaton expressed himself
in favor of the new road plan if it can
be properly financed. "If it is not a
burden to all of u.s." he said, "I'm in
favor of it.u
Charles Hall, of Avalon, also spoke
in favor of the road, and L. B. Arnett,
of Sea Isle, said he felt happy because
the idea of forming the Chamber Of
Commerce originated in Sea Isle. He

e. M. Sutton, of Ocean City, made 8
motion, which was carried, that this
organization go on record as in favor Of
the ocean boulevard from Ocean City tc
Cape May, and that the secretary pre-.
pare a petition asking for it, have il
circulated and presented to the Cape
May County Board of Freeholders.
Director Clouting, of the board o.
freeholders, in answer TO a question a
to how the freeholders felt, said b.
thought it unfair to ask the members
of the board for their views. They
were there to listen. The proposition
is a large n and the board members
would want the unanimous support 0
the people of the county before taking
action.
Mark Lake, Republican nominee 70
the assembly, said he did not come t,
the meeting to talk, but is heartily il
favor of the movement. If such a bridg,
