GREAT PROGRESS MADE

Sentiment for a change in govern
ment by the adoption of commission
rule is growing last in this city.
Citizens are watching the progress
Of the reform move with increasing
interest. The news that enough
James win soon be secured on the
petitions calling for a special cleo
ton on the issue and that they will
be filed with the city clerk within a
weeks time has given the move
ment added impetus.
But the work is only started.
Getting the necessary number of
names on the petitions was easy
compared to that of getting out a
large yote on the issue. From all
indications the election for or
against adoption will be held the
latter part of August, a month when
many people are away and an off
a for anything of an election
nature. 1t means that a concerted
effort must be made IL Perth Am
boy is to have a true sentiment OF
opinion at the polls.
Commission government has been
voted upon before in this city, but
he issue was not given a fair
nance. Following the referendum
of 1917 there was Just as much
doubt In the minds of the people
whether the city as a whole wanted
\ change in the form of municipal
government or not. The vote did
not burn out. Due to lack Of or
E~anization and other conflicting
features, enough interest could not
be stirred up. The war was at its
height, local men were leaving daily
TO take part in the struggle and
there seemed no time to get out
and vote on municipal issues.
But this time let US have a real
expression of opinion. Whatever be
the result it behooves every voter
or the city to take advantage of his
suffrage. If he thinks commission
government is the right thing for
Perth Amboy he should get out and
vote. Those who oppose the move
say SO with their ballots. Let
It be a clear cut and decided YER
dict.
II the normal city vote turns out
the coming election commission
government will be adopted. 1t
has been shown that it usually takes
elections before commission
government has been adopted in
cities that have that form Of gov
eminent today. When the matter
was voted upon during the war days
q majority vote was recorded in
favor Of the change but the vote
moi large enough to carry the
proposition. Commission govern
is needed more in these recon-
struction days than It was IN 1917
when a majority of those who did
vote favored the change. The city
