PENNA. RIGHT OF WAY
SOLD TO STATE; WILL
PAVE SAME SHORTLY
Rumor High Price Paid to Rail-
road Company for Right Of
Way--COunty Bridge Taken
Over by the State Nov. 8 as
State Building Road.

The Pennsylvania right of way IN
South Amboy-the road running
along the south shore Of the Raritan
river from the bridge to the inter
section of Main street and Broadway
South Amboy-has been purchased
by the state, it has been learned. The
price paid for this road cannot be
learned as yet although it is under
stood to have been unusually large
for such strip of property. This
road is to be paved Immediately and
will become q part of the state high
way system.
The bridge connecting this city
with South Amboy is no longer un-
der county control, having been taken
over by the state on Saturday of last
week.
Although it had been announced
that the state would use the Pennsyl-
vania right of way as a part Of the
state road system, thus doing away
with traffic through the Hole-in- the
Wall 1t, has just been learned that the
Railway Company sold this road to
the state. Efforts to learn what price
was paid for the property were OF no
avail today. but 1t is rumored that
a handsome figure was given the rail-
road company by the state in pur-
chasing this road which Is about one
mile long, extending from the inter
section of Broadway and Main street
in South Amboy, to Scott avenue, for
merly Bridge street. at the South AM
boy terminus of the bridge.
An effort was made this morning to
get in touch with State Highway En-
gineer Thompson in order to question.
him about the purchase of the road
from the railroad but he was not in
his office. The secretary of the State
Highway Commission, A. V. Drober,
l.,
he stating that although all of the de-
tails had not been settled. the state
had practically completed the pur-
chase of the Pennsylvania right of
way from the railroad company.
Already the state has graded and
scraped the road, making 1t some
what improved over it's usual bad con-
dition. Mr., Drober stated this morn
ing that the present road would be
replaced by new concrete road as
soon as contracts were awarded. Bids,
he said, for this work are to be ad-
Vertlsed for within a few weeks.
The state has been at work for several
weeks repairing the approach to the
bridge from the South Amboy side and
one-half of the road has been about
completed. This work is only for
temporary use. being laid to tide the
state over during the winter. In the
early spring a new concrete road will
be laid.
1t is pointed out by South Amboy
residents that by using the Hole-in-
the-Wall route the large automobile
traffic is diverted from Main street
and Broadway to Stevens avenue, thus
making 1t possible for cars passing
hIough the city to do so without 60
ing through the busiest streets. Here
after, however, the traffic will use the
Pennsylvania right of way road and
consequently must enter the city by
way of Broadway and Main street.

our power was a decisive factor
in the victory. We were able to
bring the vast resources, ma
terial and moral, of a great and
free people to the assistance Of

fought.
Out of this victory there arose
