TRENTON, June 2.-Announce-
ment was made by the State High
way Commission today that traffic
over the Matawan Creek bridge on
Route oil the state highway sys-
tenn Is to be continued. This bridge
is an important link in Route
which is the main artery of traffic
from New York and North Jersey
to the seashore points and consid-
cradle interest has been aroused, es-
pecially among the motoring public,
over the possibility of its being
closed during the construction or a
new bridge at this point. Plans Tor
the new structure are ready, but 1t
is understood the span will not be
started until after Labor Day, which
means that summer shore motorists
may use the present bridge, which
is located north of Keyport. Should
there be any change from this pro.
gram, the Highway Commission Will
arrange for a temporary structure
at this point to handle the traffic as
it has advised the Monmouth county
officials that traffic at this point Will
positively remain open this summer.
At it's regular meeting held yester-
day the commission received eStl-
mates from the various counties as
t. their needs for the coming year
from the state funds. The requests
were as follows Hunterdon, $780,
600; Warren, $SS6,000; Somerset.
S27O,OOO; MiddleseX, $240,OOO:
Ocean, $147,000: Mercer, S245,O00,
and Monmouth reported that they
would file their statement later
Monmouth county also made the re-
quest that the state pay forty per
cent of the amount incurred in the
building of a section of the road be-
tween Matawan and Freehold the
distance between which places is
nineteen miles. and which is also on
the main road from New York to
Atlantic City. The cost of the build
ing of this piece of road will be
$135.000.

Richardson and County Engineer
Fox appeared before the State High
way Commission in Trenton yester-
day in reference to obtaining state
aid in tho road building projects for
the next year.
The road particularly mentioned
were West avenue, Sewaren: the old
Trenton-Naw Brunswick turnpike it
was brought to the attention OF the
mission tnat this highway is six
miles shorter than the present road.
At present the conditions on the
road in use now near Princeton call
for the construction of an aqueduct
to take care of water which accu-
muIates during the spring. This work
will be expensive and the commission
is considering the project of repair
ing the turnpike instead of building
an aqueduct to take care of the
present road.
No definite action was taken by
the commission but Chairman Bur-
ton will visit New Brunswick shortly
to look into the matter further.
The regular meeting of the Board
of Freeholders will be held this af-
ternoon and bids will be received at
this time for road improvement
bonds to raise the $262,0OO needed
by the board for the contemplated
work of the year.

the appraisal of the Trenton and
Mercer County Traction Corpora
tions property for the state, said
that the testimony of Lawrence

who testified for the city, should not
be given as much consideration as
a more careful examination.
Mr.. Black was asked by the coun-
sci for the company to give a valua-
ton for the company's property us
ing the figures of current prices. He
said that he had not come as an ex-
pert, but he differed with the state
ment of Phillips that items such as

expense should not be considered in
an appraisal, intimatinS that the

Charged With Attempting
to Kill Man in Sand Bank
HE FIRED THREE SHOTS
Defendant Lost Leg in War;
Reported That Bad Liquor
Had Weakened His Mind.
[By Evening News Correspondent

SOUTH AMBOY, June 2.-Charles
"Whitey" Witzack, the only South
Amboy man who was permanently
wounded in the World War. was ar
rested yesterday afternoon by officer
Patrick Coughlin, charged with afro
cious assault and attempt to kill Jo-
seph Primka. A hearing was given
Witzack before Recorder Forgotson
last night. but it was adjourned until
o'clock tonight to allow five wit
nesses to testify. Witzack lost his
rigr. leg in the war and goes about
on crutches. Since his return, it is
generally reported. WitZack has been
drinking considerably and it is the
belief of many that the bad liquor
has caused his mind to become un-
balanced. He was not under the in
fluerce of liquor yesterday. however,
according to the doctor who exam
ined him.
Primka had a narrow escape from
,erious Injury as three bullets pierced
his body. none of which produced
wounds that will prove fatal. Prim-
ka was at a loss to understand why
WitZack would shoot at him. declar-
Ing that he had never done anythln
to give "Whitey" cause to assau
him.
The assault took place about 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon while
Primka was working in Whitehead's
sand bank. He was at the bottom
of pit installing a sand mixer. lie
said, when he heard three shots,
and looking up from his work saw
Witzack standing on the edge of the
Dit with a revolver in his hand.
Primka said he felt a stinring sem
sation in his right sho' L which
began to get warm.
According to Primka, he shouted
to Witzack: whats the matter
with you, Whitey?" and Witzack re-
piled: 1--WE got three more I'll let
you have" Primka was able to
climb out of the pit and went to
the Office of DR.. Z. A. Meacham
where the wounds were dressed. 1t
was found that the bullets had been
of 80 calibre and had all struck the
same shoulder glancing blows, pos
sibly because of the angle from
which they were shot.
Primka went to the police station
and made charges of attempt to kill
and atrocious assault against Wit
zack, who was then picked up by
Oficer Coughlin. The policeman
found the revolver on Witzack.
There were three empty chambers.
Witzack said he had permit to
carry a revolver, issued in February.
He did not have it with him in court
last night. Leo ]. Coakley repre-
sented the defendant in the hearing
before Recorder Forgotson last
night and declared Primka had mis-
understood Witzack's words follow
Ing the shooting. No motive for the
attack has been learned as yet. The
case will be disposed of at o'clock
tonight. Witzack is being held.
