MAINTAINING O

The example OF the State Highway Commits
sion in temporarily taking over the roads used
ss a detour while the regular state highways are
closed for repairs or construction work, in Or
der TO keep detours in somewhere near decent
shape. might well be copied by the Board of
Freeholders in regard to important county
roads. The detour at Fords is in disgraceful
shape. II is particularly bad at each end where
connection IL made with the main road.
AS this Improvement through Fords seems to
be unusually delayed while the Public
service moves its tracks. the least that
CAM expected is that the detour be made
son shaof near passsble. 1t certainly can be
Arhaproved over what it is at present
an much expense to the county. yet at
wa great deal OF expense to the driv-
~tivfcies in the way of broken springs

imind. Woodbridge township and the

Perth Amboy evening news., 1921-06-01
POINT OF VIEW

There is more satisfaction than there ought
tc be in the knowledge that some other fellow
Is worse off than you are. This is suggested
by a comparison of conditions in America and
Great Britain.
When we complain of high taxes in this
country 1t may help a little to realize that they
are about twice as high in Great Britain.
Certainly our unemployment seems large. but
the latest figures from Great Britain show 1--WE
millions out Of work or working only part time.
This is about 2 per cent. of the population. The
same percentage applied to our population
would give us nearly thirteen millions out OF
werk. which is about four times our stlmate
figure.
our exports are about half what they were
a year ago and British exports show the same
comparative slump. But here again we may
congratulate ourselves. With us export trade
is Important; with the British it is vital. We
can have a fair measure of prosperity with a
limited export trade; the British can't. Their
existense as an industrial nation depends upon
a great export business and their situation is
such that they must be an industrial nation or
60 to smash.
The rather desperate situation In which the
British find themselves lie illustrated by the re-
cent arrival at Newcastle OF a cargo or coal
from China. This is carrying Goals to New
CASTLE with a vengeance.
Every British port is crowded with idle ships
the estimated idle tonnage being about 2,O00.-
900 tons. This is partly due to the strike OF
coal miners, but in the main to the lack Of de-
mand for British goods.
Yes, we undoubtedly have our troubles and
there are plenty of difficulties ahead of us, but
our British cousins are In so much worse plight
that thew probably think we are favored OF the
gods.

NEW YoRK,s USUAL ATTITUDE.

nv agitation for 4 ohe-sided port development
- nder the Inter State Commission has already
begun by New York. Having sewed New
Jersey up to New York In the matter of future
Improvement OF the waterways OF this vicinity,
New York proceeds to "hog 1t ALI as usual.
The New York Times. for instance. says that
while the two states working together can ac-
complish . great deal. there are matters con-
nected with the harbor that cannot be properly
and successfully handled without the aid and
cooperation OF the federal government
with this we are all agreed. But the Times goes
on to point out examples OF where federal aid
is needed, mentioning in particular the project
for dredging Jamaica bay and the lengthening
Of the Chelsea piers in the Hudson river. 1t
seems that New York has even gone so far as
to invite q congressional committee to inspect
these projects.
In the matter Of the Chelsea piers, the War
Department has already declared against the
proposition because the fairway in the Hudson
river is not any more than sufficient already and
A. the Chelsea section Is at the narrowest part
Of thef Her it is deemed a detriment to COM
5catISg toSave the piers extend out into the
liver any further. Besides. it is declared to be
unfair to New Jersey to allow this extension of
the piers on the New York side out further into
the river when the same permission is denied
New Jersey. 1t is pointed out that on the New
Jersey side the rocky formation of the shore
prevents docks being dredged inland and the
only way ships can be accommodated is by ex-
tending out into the river. On the other hand,
New York. il she wants longer piers. could
Ar<dge into the shore extending the piers, shore-
Yard instead of into the river. But New York
won't be satisfied until she has her way and
rhogs" the whole river.
In regard to Jamaica bay. the time may come
when that section may be developed to some
useful purpose, but why spend 30 much money
away out on Long Island which IL inaccessible
TO most Of the railroads when here IL Raritan
bay with all the railroads necessary for inland
transportation awaiting only a little dredging
in the channels and terminal construction on
the shore to add tremendously to the capacity
OF the port?
But New Jersey. having sewed up with New
York in the matter Of port development, will
