Choose q Adjacent Places
for Shipment Of Powder

In line with the policy OF the
orders of tho captain of the port OF
New York to free upper New York
harbor as far as possible from all
traffic and explosives, four points IN
the lower bay have been suggested
for the unloading and transfer OF
these dangerous materials.
South Amboy, Keyport, Cheese
quake creek and Sandy Hook have
been named as the points at which
munitions barges will be unloaded in
the future. All of these four points
are below the Narrows and thus out
of the limits Of upper New York har-
Dor where the restrictions have been
imposed.
The development of these four
places as unloading points will prac-
tically eliminate as ports of disem-
barkation Black Tom, jersey City.
and railroad terminals on the Jersey
side below Hoboken. Some munitions
still reach New York by way OF
Greenville, Weehawken and Newark.
Non-high explosives are being ship
ped from the Harlem river for New
England points, but it is unlikely that
these shipments will be forced to
make a detour above New York.
Formerly there were seldom less
than nineteen barges anchored in the
explosive anchorage off Bedlow's Is
land, all of which were loaded with
high explosives. This number has
now been cut down to six.
1t Is likely that when the deepening
Of the channel in the Raritan river
has been completed explosives will
continue up the river to Camp Rari-
tan in addition to going to the big
shell loading plant at Morgan. If all
of the New York explosive shipping
| is done by way Of the lower bay
Perth Amboy will be situated in the
hub Of activities.

out for drill last night than on any
similar occasion in the past. The or

than 300 men actively engaged in
the weekly drills and efforts are be-
ing made to add several squads Of

of professional and business men
have Joined the battalion and are
displaying great enthusiasm.

Many men who are beyond the
draft age have Joined and more are
continuing to present themselves each
week, anxious to secure the outdoor
exercises and the valuable drill which
IS precisely the same as that given
in the army. The newly enlisted men
are given special training so that In
a short time they are in a condition
to go through the maneuVers as well
as the men who have been in the or
ganization since its beginning last
summer.

take part In the big Fourth Of July
parade and urged that every man
make it point to be in line at that
time In order that a fine showing
