man from the first ward-and has
been for the past several years-is
elected mayor by the voters of Perth

ness administration conducted by
one who has had the necessary quail
flying experience in city manage
ment. He knows the city's require
ments and how best to meet them.
Mr.. Wilson stands four square on
all questions for the betterment of
the city of Perth Amboy. His char
acter is such as will stand a rigid
test. He was born In Monmouth
county and came here while a boy.
having spent the past thirty years
In Perth Amboy where the advance
ment and growth OF this city has
meant much Il him. He played an
important part in this development
for many years and has not yet COM
pleted what he believes to be his
civic duty.
After being employed by a con-
tracing concern as superintendent,
during which time he had the OPP
%portunity to work with, supervise
and study men. he started in the
contracting business for himself.
This was about five years ago. As
q result of honest dealings and on
scientious work he has established a
business to which he devotes a large
portion of his time. the duties con-
nected with hat OF alderman also
requiring considerable work on his
part.

words a real" business administra-

pie of Perth Amboy II honored by
its men and women voters with the
Office of mayor. He las always been
in the fore when the interests of the
wage Garner were at stake and if
elected as mayor he now promises
to conduct the affairs of this city in
dependentiy without fear Or favor.
William c. Wilson realizes that
making promises before election and
keeping them after the votes have
told the story are two different
things, but he now pledges himself
in favor of eight main issues COM
prising a platform upon which he
stands and hopes will satisfy the
Perth Amboy voters to such an ex-
TEN that they will make him their
next mayor.
II elected. Alderman Wilson says.
he will work increasingly to carry
out every promise made by him in
this campaign. The nine planks of
his platform, briefly. are:
1. New railroad station.
2 Abolition OF grade crossings.
3. Discontinuance of the use OF
the MERIT Tract" as a dumping
ground and developing it into a pub
lie park for which purpose it was
Originally purchased.
4. Development of such social fea-
lures as will tend to increase an in
Iterest in our own city and develop
q Perth Amboy spirit" This would
include concerts in our parks during
the summer months; provision for
skating at the old yater works pond
in winter: identifying the city by set
ting out shade trees: continued de-
velopment of a park system as fast
as conditions warrant. .
5. Development of a sewer system
for the northerly and westerly part
OF the city and the paving of Brace

Z. The removal of the city stable

municipal lighting system together
with more white ways in the BUSH
ness section of the city.
.. Erection of municipal ice plant.
These nine points" as they
might be called. represent briefly AL
derman Wilson's ideas for a greater,
and bigger Perth Amboy. There are
other things which might arise dur
ing tie course of his administration
which would likewise mean a bet
ter. cleaner and more prosperous
city. The Republican mayoralty,
candidate will favor any such pro-,
positions.
