SHIP CANAL To
Be DISCUSSED
viii be Talked Of at Newark
Downtown Club

NEWARK, Nov. 5.-The New Jer-
sey Commission to urge Congress to
appropriate funds to construct the
canal from Morgan on Raritan Bay
to Bordentown on the Delaware River
which was created by Joint Resolu-
ton No. 3, Laws of 1919, has called
upon the State Chamber of Com
merce to help arouse popular interest
in this big and important project,
A meeting has been arranged for to-
morrow night at the Down Town
Club. 100 Broad street, Newark at
which prominent speakers will out
line the advantages which will accrue
to the State If the Canal Is construct
ed, the payable cos of such an un-
dertaking and the method best suited
to persuade Congress to adopt the
item in the next Rivers and Harbors
Appropriation bill.
These speakers include Congress-
man Thomas j. Scully of South Amboy
h has already introduced a bill to
build the canal rs feet deep, 1877
miles long with a bottom width of 1875
feet. Congressman Amos NJ. Radcliff
of Paterson, an enthusiastic supporter
of the project; Colonel William C.
Langhtt who Is in charge of the east
ern division of Engineers. u. S. Army,
which would have jurisdiction over
the New Jersey Ship Canal; Commis-
sioner Murray Hubert of New York
in charge of Docks and Harbors; Ma
o Frederick w. Donnelly of Tren-
ton, ono of the most sincere advocates
of inland waterways to whom is due
the great credit of having made the
Delaware River navigable up to Tren-
ton; Wilfred Schoff, secretary of the
Atlantic Deeper Waterways Associa-
ton; Hon. ]. Spencer Smith, chairman
of the Board of Commerce and Navi-
cation, and others.
The present agitation for the con-
structton of the intra-costal canal
across New Jersey Is the elimination
of a campaign conducted for years by
the New Jersey State Chamber OF
Commerce. When the proposed canal
project was first brought before the
public some years ago there were at
least fourteen boards or commissions
In this state, each in charge of some
water transportation development. 1t
was the aim and purpose of the State
Chamber to do away with a number
of those boards and centralize the
water development schemes in this
state, based on q program of riparian
rights, INTERPOLATION of existing and
demanded improvements and the de-
mands of conference.
A special effort will now be made
to bring out general discussion as this
is the psychological moment to induce
congress to act and the combined
judgment of all interested persons Is
solicited. The meeting is to be open
to the public and the members of the
commission hope thai all persons in
terested in seeing the canal project
consummated will attend. The mem
bers of the commission are Chairman
James Hammond, senator from Mer-
Ger. Assemblyman Arthur E. Warner
of Union and j. Spencer Smith.
