OUR SERVICE

In his argument in favor of the continuation of government con
nol OF railroads for five years Director General McAdoo points out
5 me of the advantages of Il unity of control. But his alleged adyant
sgcs arr all in connection with long distance transportation. 1t is Ger
tain that he has little ground for citing improvement as far as local
traffic is concerned.
Take, for instance, the service between Perth Amboy and New
York. While the fare has been practically doubled. the aceommoda-
lions are nowhere near what they were formerly. Perth Amboy now
has no train on the Pennsylvania railroad in the morning that goes
lO;1s, Blu. that has been discontinued. Instead, Perth Amboy pass
cngers for uptown New York must take the 1925 train and change
at Newark where it is necessary to wait thirtyfve minutes before a
train comes along for the uptown station i'll New York. Naturally, 1T
is more convenient to go on into New York downtown and take a
subway rather than wait the thirtyfve minutes in Newark.
Fine accommodation, this.
Coming out at night, after a long and hard fight the Pennsylvania
finally gave Perth Amboy direct train service from the uptown sta
lion, but it is the Camden accommodation that is placed at the service
of Perth Amboy, while the metropolis of South Amboy has the Long
lranch express for its convenience.
Upon entering the concourse at the 32d street station one sees the
Long Branch express announced prominently, but upon approaching
the gate the agent informs the passenger that the first stop is South
Amboy. The importance of Perth Amboy in the opinion of the
Pennsylvania railroad S once realized. AS there is no sign of another
train coming in this direction, an inquiry reveals the fact that the
gate for the Camden train is hidden around back of the stairs out of
sight, and passengers for Perth Amboy can sneak around there and
dingle dong home while our friends and ~neighbors go through without
a stop. Perhaps the traffic group o. the Board of Trade might give
this matter a little attention.
MeAdoo may sing the praises of government control of railroads
10 his heart content, but as long as such unjust discrimination and
rotten service a this continues, he will not gain much Roadway with
the people of this city.

WATER BOARD APPOINTMENT.

Editor Ef ENlNd II Nfos
Mayor Dorsey's dictated interview
with the representatives of your pa
per published in Thursdays issue OF
the NEWS, has Interested me, espe-
cially his sweeping assertion as to the
competency OF either Messrs Snedekcr
or Baldwin as worthy candidates for
the position IN the water board; ana
the unftness of ex-Mayor TenBroeck
for the same position.
/ desire to congratulate the young
gentleman who is now at the head OF
the city government for his great wis
dom in having his interviews dictated
to a stenographer not alone for the
sake of safety for the cunning eport
ers, but also for further references.
Mr.. Snedekcr, the present incum-
bent on the water board, may be a
very excellent man. but the water he
has been able to s~upplY~the city with,
is certainly not-any criterion for his
competency. The water h a a GER
tain part of u population has to
quench its thirst with, Is simply
rotten"
Mr.. Baldwin. the so-called candi-
date of the Kitchen cabinet" has two
special qualifications for the position
worth considering. viz: ION account
of the experience he has a with
things that deal with the water de-
,,lrtment such as machinery, coal and
80 forth"
The mayors interest in the word
coal is very natural n especially
the Dorsey's brand of the same,
which perhaps is very well known to
Mr.. Baldwin and to the corporation he
represents.
Mr.. Dorsey does not know the po-
litical affiliations OF Mr.. Baldwin. HIM.
Well would it then not be a correct
step taken by Mr.. Baldwin to come
out in u manly fashion and state plain
ly what he is?
That several aldermen are for the
selection of Mr.. Baldwin may be &C
counted for by their private interests,
that precede the welfare of the people.
Now, concerning ex-Mayor Ten
Brock, | dare say he knows more
about the affairs. the working. etc, or
the water board than does Mayor Dor
soy. The question OF pure water for
Perth Amboy is not n new one, n
Mr.. TenBroeck's progressiveness,
faithfulness. loyalty and unselishness
during his tenure of office as war
mayor. would surely indicate that he
was just as competent as MIR. Snede-
ker and more conversant with affairs
of the water board than Mr.. Baldwin.
even IL he Is an expert OF the different
GRADES OF coal.
Another name, in the person of Mr..
Stas has been mentioned in connection
with the water board. II Is claimed by
his friends that he is a good man for
the office. IL so. why not let us hear 4
little more about him, but first and
last. let the peoples representatives
serve their masters and not the cor
po~rations serve them!
Very respectfully yours.
