Editors Pleasantville Press

Editors Pleasantville Press
Widen the Shore Road from Somers
Point to Absecon, to so feet from
curb to curb where it passes through
Pleasantville. Having the main street
so feet would relieve the present con-
gestion and stoppage of travel that
occurs daily. Suppress the Penna. r.
R. tracks, also the Reading r. r. death
trap, spanning the two roads with an
ornamental viaduct. AS the Federal
Government, also the State Highway
Commission, has approved the con
struction of new roads, widening, re-
pairing and paving the old ones, Pleas
antville citizens will make no mistake
And next winter have special legisla-
ton passed to allow the great improve
ment to get started, or have it so
that the widening of the Shore Road
can be done in from one to three
years. l am out for every improve
ment that will advance the interests
of Pleasantville and its citizens. We
will need this improvement and with
a 60-foot main street through our city
and a double-track trolley system ira
versing the Shore Road, properties
and investments will go skyward.
Pleasantville has now reached a stage
where it cannot go backward, but must
go ahead and improve conditions to
meet the ideas of the home seekers
and investors. Yours for Pleasantville
to grow bigger and greater,
FRANK B. HUBIN.
