14.7OO WORKERS IN
CARNEY'S POINT PLANT

Any doubt that the most skeptical
may have as to the great benefits that
would be derived from the construc-
ton of trolley line from Pennsgrove
to Salem, is effectively cleared by
data that was given to the promoters
of the line by an official of the dupont
Powder Company this week. On last
pay day at the plants in Upper Penn's
Neck, N. j.. township. each employe
as he received his money. was asked
TO give his place Of residence. In ad-
dition to finding that 14.7OO men were
in their employ it was learned that
1000 reside in Pennsgrove. 1900 in
Salem, $500 in Wilmington, 5000 in
the several camps near the plants.
l,5o0 at outlying villages and 500 in
miscellaneous towns. This data is
now in the hands of the Salem gen
tlemen who have the trolley project
in hand and permission has been
given us by Manager Porter to use it
this week II is said the payroll
amounts to S2s5.oo0.

SALEM
Trolley Line Waits
Action of Freeholders De-
ferred by DelaysDue to
Statute Procedure
A. B SMITH SEES NO
SERIOUS OPPOSITION

Delay in securing the right Of way
for the proposed Salem and Penns-
grove Traction Company has not been
caused by any opposition TO the pro-
iect but by the procedure necessary
by the provisions of the New Jersey
laws. A. B. Smith, of Salem, a Free
holder, today explained the procedure.
He said it first is necessary to apply
to the Board of Freeholders for the
franchise. The board then is required
to public the application for two
weeks In the newspapers and also to
post five notices in public places an
nouncing date for a hearing on the
application.
At the latter hearing those oppos-
ed and those in favor of the applica-
ton are given chance to be heard
This is followed by the red tape of a
first, second and third reading of the
application and the voting upon il by
the members of the board. There
seem to be no serious obstacle TO the
application for the franchise. Mr..
Smith said. and it looks as II il
would be secured by the middle of
October.
On October IL the Town Council of
Pennsgrove will give a public hearing
on the question of giving permission
to the trolley company to use the
streets of that town. In the county
the application has reached the point
where it has to be published in the
newspapers.
Mr.. Smith said the franchise ap-
plication under the law could not be
acted on prior to two weeks hence
at least, as a public hearing must be
given after two weeks notice. It may
not be acted on until the middle OF
October.
