OPPOSITION TO STATE POLICE.

About the only serious opposition that stands
In the way Of New Jersey having a state ponce
force like New York. Pennsylvania ana NlaSsa-
,huset,s Is the stand taken by a few labor lead
s We doubt very much If these men repre-
semi the true sentiment of the rank and file Oh
organized labor: we are sure they do not repre-
SAINT the sentiment of labor in general.
our estimation of 1abor is that the class oil
men who are so designated are just as inter-
ested in the enforcement of the law and IN see
ing that the peace is kept as an other set OIL
men. Not one of these men is opposed to the
organized city police. Why, then. oppose an Or
ganized state police?

Is that it is believed that the state police VIII DC

WHY NOT A MEMoRIAL BRIDGE?

While there is so much discussion going on
about the new state highway bridge across the
Raritan river between the Amboys, the EVE
MING NEWS would like once more to suggest
that steps be taken to have this bridge take the
form of a state memorial for the New Jersey
boys who fought in the world war. 1t is ad-
mitted by those who are an authority on memo
rails in general that a bridge is the ideal form
of a memorial to take. This being so. and the
fact that this bridge between the Amboys is to
be the longest public highway bridge in the
state. crossing the largest stream wholly within
the state, and will form a connecting link be-
tween North and South Jersey. at the same time
being under the Jurisdiction of state authorities
what could be more appropriate than to have
this a memorial bridge?
A bridge is an ideal memoria because it pos
sesses great architectural possibilities. Further
more, it stands out distinctly in the landscape
easily discernible from all directions with no
buildings or other distractions to interfere with
the view.
This bridge in particular would make an ideal
memorial not only because of its central loca-
ton in reference to the two extreme ends of the
state. but because of the extensive travel across
the Drldge. lNOuSdnuS Oh JerseyIleH lIOL1 all
parts of the state will use this bridge practically
every weekend. especially during the summer
season. They will have a chance to admire its
beauty and will consequently be able to take a
pride in what the state has done to perpetuate
the memory of her sons who offered their lives
that democracy might be preserved. Besides
the Jerseymen who would use the bridge, thou
sands of non-residents also cross the bridge
every week. These people come from all parts
of the country to visit the Jersey coast. In
passing between the resorts and the cities to
the north they must cross this bridge. What
a fine thing it would be for the state for these
non-residents to see what New Jersey has done
in memory Of her sons.
This bridge is going to cost about 100000.
OF this amount the federal government is
pledged to give 81, 10000 With such an ex-
penditure assured it would take but little more
IN the way Of embellishments to make it a me-
mortal In every sense of the word.
The legislature is now in session. There have
been all kinds Of state memorials suggested, from
a monument at Trenton to a mountain in the I'M
frequented northern part of the state. 1t Will
be hard for all sections to agree on the exact
form the memorial should take. All things
considered. however, this state highway bridge
that is going to be built anyway would make
an ideal compromise. 1t would be In neither
South nor North Jersey. but would be the con-
Meeting link between the two. AS a memorial
it has great possibilities.
An expert city planner would at once see the
possibilities of a memorial bridge across the
Raritan river at this point. If the city plan
commission only had an expert for advice and
counsel at this time we are sure something
worth while might be done in this matter.
