LONGPORT MAYOR RESIGNS

Rebuilding Of Shattered Sea Wall

Atlantic City. Sept. 20.--Following a
run of three years of the hardest mu-
niCipal luck on the Atlantic coast. with

New Jersey, resigned his position last
night.
Mayor lIarcOurt. who is lawyer bv
profession. was in his early twentics
and started whirlwind campaign Tor
improvement OF Longport which at
tracted attention all over the State.
When cnCroachmcnts of the ocean
washed away acres of valuable land,
much o fit owned by Philadelphia sum
mer cottagers, Mayor Harcourt took UP
the project of building a great sea wall
which had been partly completed at Il
cost of $4,000 when terrific storms
tore out entire blocks of the abutmcnt.
While citizens and property owners
of the sister resort TO Atlantic City
stood by their young mayor to the limit
of their financial ability, the executive
declares that to again bring the sea-
wall project on the road to success
there must be mayor who can devote
his entire time to the work and that
Of his attention that he will be unable
to tackle the job. United States Com
missioner Hiram Steelman, associated
with Mayor Harcourt in an Atlantic
City law firm, also rendered his reSigna-
ton as city solicitor of LOngport to take
elect with that of his superior.
