A A TO BUILD.
EVENING NEWS

EDITOR EVENING NEWS: -
From articles which have recently
i'm the NEWS 1t appears
that certain people are under the
in,nression that there Is no more
ground left for building purposes
in Perth Amboy. We would there
fore like to call attention to condi-
lions as they actually are.
In the northern and northwest
ern sections of the city there are
still thousands of desirable puilolns
lots. These lots range in price from
about 5000 and upward. No better
location than the section around
No. s school is to be found any
where for the average home puilder.
There are hundreds OF people VINO
own lots farther out, who would be
ready to build If the necessary street
improvements could be made.
A few years ago when certain lot
owners on Laurie street asked 10
have the block between Cornell
and Groom streets graded and sew
cred the objection was raised mat
1t would not pay as there would be
no building. However, the improve
ments were made and today there Is
hardly a block in the entire city
that can compare with 1t in n high
grade residences erected within a
few years. The city collects thous-
ands of dollars in tax annually be-
u of this small improvement.
The same will happen elsewhere
when proper improvements are
made.
Hundreds of property owners are
waiting for proper W facilities In
the section north of Brace avenue
and also in the section north of
No. 0 school. With the new street
connecting Raritan and Amboy ave-
nues north of Alpine cemetery now
graded it should not be difficult TO
provide proper sewer outlet. IL a
trunk W is built through this new
street and through the section north
of No. 0 school both the northwest
ern and the northern sections of the
city can be accommodated by 1t. We
would therefore urge the proper
steps to have such a trunk sewer
built as soon as possible. water
and other improvements should, OF
course, follow also.
Very many people have built in
Fords and Woodbridge, and else
where because this city has not pro-
vided the needed improvements.
Thousands of dollars in taxes are
lost annually on this account. The
money invested in such improve
ments will soon return TO the city
with good interest. Let us not be
content with a few nice streets, but
let us make the entire city a good
place to live in and let us lose no
time In doing 1t. We like to see
our neighbors grow and prosper. but
let us keep at the head of the pro-
ccssion.

Auditor Harry b. Salter. who is act
ing as secretary to the commission.
The expert appraisers are gathering
data on which to place 2 valuation

and the Valuation Commission pro-

splendid cooperation from the Pub

ties and the Public Utility Board.
THE Public Service has even put

work, the different municipalities
are providing their OWL figures Tor

Mr.. Salter explained that the con-
tract price of the valuation is $780,

$1,000 which was appropriated for
the work. In the event other utility
