PLAY GROUND At
SOUTH AMbOY
Matter is Taken Up by Cham
Der of Commercial. c.
Chase is Nominated.
tBy Evening News Correspondent

[By Evening News Correspondent
SOUTH AMBOY, June AT the
meeting of the Board of Directors
of the Chamber of Commerce held
last night the name of d. G. Chase
was placed in nomination for repre-
sentative of the third congressional
district on the board of trustees of
the New Jersey Chamber of Com
merce. The election will take place
at the annual convention to be held
at Asbury Park on June 18th. A
number of local men expect to at
tend this convention this year and
discuss the policy of the organiza-
ton for the year 1921-22.
The matter of Fairgrounds came
up for some discussion. At the re-
cent conference with the real estatd
department of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company permission was
granted the chamber to use Stevens
dale property for a playground for
the children. The only restrictions
placed on the property was that 1t
be properly policed and no fires or
other nuisances be committed. This
information will be officially con-
veyed to the Woman's Club who
are mighty interested in this matter
as well as the City Council who will
be asked to police the grounds.
Another matter was the question
of giving service to the people llv-
ing the outlying districts OF the city
as well as those within walking dis
lance of the station. To this end
it was suggested that just as soon as
B~ordentown avenue is completed the
council will be asked to send the
buses to the end of the city line.
The resolution adopted by. the
Chamber of Commerce told of the
great work done by the Salvation
ARMY and of President Harding set
ting his seal to the work and urging
the people to support the home SER
vice program and pledged the moral
support of the Chamber of Com
merce to the cause of the Salvation
Army. The resolution was signed
by President D. C. Chase and Sec
rotary William A. Mills.
