SALEM To Fight
FOR RIVER CUT
Business Men Will Not
Quietly Submit to Report
of u. S. Engineers
WILL ASK AID
OF SENATORS

SALEM, n. j., April ia much
sitter fight must he put up by busi-
ness men and citizens il Salem is to
get its long discussed river cutoff,
which project has been promoted by
the Chamber of Commerce and which
looked as il it were going to be a
success until a communication was
received from the Rivers and Har-
bors Board of Engineers flattening
out the scheme.
The proposed cutoff on the Salem
river would make a shorter channel
between the Delaware river and the
wharves at Salem, saving boats about
one and one-quarter miles from the
route that they now have TO take by
the winding channel. Owners Of
land which would be crossed have
donated the right of way and ap-
propriations have been made by the
State, to be matched by similar ap-
propriations by the city and by local
business men for putting through
this project.
The letter from the Federal board
says; 1T is believed that the pub
lie interest is sufficient to justify
the cost of the improvement, which
would probably be four or five times
the amount proposed TO be contrib
uted by local and State interests"
The project has gone so far that
the district engineer at Wilmington,
Del, had recommended that a sur
vey be made and an estimate Of cost
for the work secured and the Rivers
I ~ q Aas
tained a clause authorizing a pre-
liminary examination.
In deciding that the project is not
advisable at this time from the gov
ernment standpoint. the Federal
Board of Engineers, which has the
final say, points out that "the water
borne commerce Con the Salem
river) has materially decreased and
appears to be shifting from water
TO rail even though there is a good
| navigable channel from the mouth
Of the river. to the wharf a. the city
OF Salem. Little or no use seems to
be made OF the present channel.
The chief advantage TO navigation
to result from the proposed cutoff
will be a saving in distance OF one
and one-quarter miles. which is not
of great Importance. All other bene-
| fits would be local"
The Salem Chamber OF Commerce
will renew its efforts to have the
cutoff built in spite of this adverse
report. The Federal engineers in
yite submission of arguments within
thirty days to show why their deci-
sion should not stand. Citizens will
enlist the aid OF United States SEN
ators Frelinghuysen and Edge and
| also Of Congressman Patterson, OF
the First New Jersey District. in
trying to prevent the project from
being permanently shelved.
