CLEAN UP THE HIGHWAYS

With states and municipalities spending millions of dol
lars on the improvement of the highways the work OF the Ma
tional Highways Protective Society, with headquarters at 4
West Thirty fourth street, New York City, is becoming more
and more Important. The main object of this organization is
TO protect the highways from unsightly sign. and advertise
ments.
Nine states now have a law making it unlawful to post adj
verising signs within the limits of a highway. New Jersey is
one of them. The law in this state says that any person or
firm who places or puts upon or In any manner afflXes to any
fence, structure, pole, rock or other object which is the prop
eriy Of another, whether within or without the limits of the
highway, any word, device, trade mark, advertisement or no.
tce which is not required by law to be posted thereon without
lrst obtaining the written consent of the owner or tenant of
such property, shall upon complaint of such owner or of his
Tenant or any municipal or public officer, be punished by a
fine Of not more than ten dollars" The New Jersey law further
provides that any advertisement or notice that is put up within
the limits of the highway in violation of the provisions of this
law may be removed or obliterated by any person.
Persons travelling on the roads of New York state, Con-
necticut or Massachusetts cannot help but be impressed with
the absence of the hideous signs everywhere along the road
side. In those states the law is being enforced. Since the law
was passed in New Jersey signs have not been SO numerous
here, but there are many highways In this state where the nui-
sance still exists and some signs are still being erected in di-
rect violation of this statute.
While the National Highway Protective Society Is remov-
Ing the illegal signs wherever Its representatives go, 1t Is i'm
possible for them to cover all the roads. These signs are par
tcularly numerous in this vicinity and south Of the Raritan
river. Anyone is at liberty to tear down these signs II they
have been posted without the consent of the owner or tenant of
the property in front of which they have been placed, and 1t
has been found that some signs have been put up In defiance
of the people whose property they affect.
There is nothing that destroys the natural beauty of the
country more than the great, glazing signs that meet the eye
everywhere along a country road. With neighborlng states
taking particular pride In keeping their highways clear Of these
~unsightly objects and thereby making their roads more at
iracive, New Jersey cannot afford to lag behind. AS this par
ticular section of New Jersey 10 exceptionally affected a gem
eral cleanup Is in order. 1t would seem that the coast resorts
would have particular interest in this matter In the way Of
making the ride to the resorts as attractive as possibles In-
stead, some Of the business houses at the resorts are the worst
offenders.

FOR A MUNICIPAL WEDDING

Believing, as we do, that a comprehensive city plan drawn
bv an expert in that line is the first essential for the future
progress of Perth Amboy and that a real city plan cannot De
made without including Woodbridge township, the EVENING
NEWS is convinced that one of the first things to be accom-
plished toward the proper development fthls vicinity IS the
uniting Of Perth Amboy and Woodbridge into one muhlcipanN
There already is considerable sentiment in both Perth Annoy
and Woodbridge for such a union and as the advantages are
better understood more and more people cannot help but De
convinced of the desirability of the plan.
We believe that the time is ripe for a genuine movement
toward the carrying out of this project. The interests OF the
two places are identical, the one is essential to the other ana
with the township included within the CITY hmlts q oeVeop
ment could take place that would be of untold advantage. Why
not begin now to plan for a great big municipal wedding III
summating the union of Perth Amboy and Woodbridge with
Woodbridge as the bride accepting Perth Amboy for better OF
for worse to work out their destiny together looking confident
Ey into the future with the brightest OF prospects-aheadf iha'
indeed, would be a wedding well worth celebrating.

DOING GOOD WORK

Activities on the part Of the Board of Health during the
past month or two is most encouraging. 1t is apparent that
The board is thoroughly awake to the responsibilities resting
upon it and there is every indication that it will be able to give
8 good account of itself when the annual reports are called for
at the end of the year and when the budget for the next year rs
made up.
The Importance Of the Board of Health cannot be over
estimated. Health is at the foundation Of progress and happl-
ness. No matter what plans we may have, If we have not health
we can accomplish but little. No matter how attractive we may
make the city in every other respect, if it is not a healthful city
people will not care to live here and do business here.
Perth Amboy's health record is not what it should be.
There are still many bad holes in the city that need cleaning
mp. We are we'll aware, however, that all this takes time and
money. But once the authorities are aroused to the needs and
are actively engaged in lettering conditions they should re-
ceive cooperation and encouragement.
til apparent that the health authorities are actually try
ing to make improvements. With so much to be done at
The outset it Is hard to make an impression at once, but by
keeping right at it and tackling each problem as it comes along
without fear or favor it is evident that once the organization,
with the nurses, clinics and laboratory is complete, something
really worth while for Perth Amboy will be accomplished.
Perth Amboy can never become a pacemaking city In the true
sense of the word without a health department functioning in
every particular.
