WANTHEAR|NG
ON WATERFRONT
Chamber of Commerce Com
mittee to Confer With the
Board of Aldermen

A committee consisting of j.
Logan Clevenger, chairman, Peter
c. Olsen, Isaac Alpern, John Wester
and Jean Dubois. was appointed to-
day by President Isaac Alpern of the
Chamber of Commerce to represent
the chamber and arrange for a hear
ing with the Board of Aldermen to
see Just how much may be expected
of the city in the development of the
waterfront here. The appointing OF
the committee is the result of a sug-
gestion made at the meeting of the
Advisory Council of the Port of New
York Authority in this city recently
and discussed at length the proposed
development of the waterfront here
and belt line railroad as proposed
by the Port of New York Authority.
The advisory council, which adj
vised the appointing of this commit
tee by the Chamber of Commerce.
consists of ten men, representing
Monmouth and Middlesex counties,
who will meet with the Port of New
York Authority and lay before the
authority the needs of this section of
the state in the proposed develop
ment of the waterways.
When the council met here 1t was
brought out that IL this city could
offer the Port of New York Au-
thority some inducement for the
recognition. it was likely that the
local waters would receive greater
consideration when the final report
of the authority to the legislatures
Of New York and New Jersey is
made. To that end the council sug-
lgested that the committee of the
Chamb0 of Commerce be appointed
to go before the council and see If
immediate action could be taken by
them towards the appointing of a
committee on docks and piers which
in turn can show to the Port of
New York Authority just what this
city is willing to do in developing
the water front here.
As the next meeting of the Board
of Aldermen will be held oil Mon
day night, October II, it has been
suggested that the committee meet
some time during the coming week
so that it may be ready to present
its request before the aldermen at
the next meeting.

GET METUCHEN |
PAVING BIDS
Will Likely be Rejected to
Make Good Pre- EIec-
ton Talk

NEW BRUNSWICK, Oct. 6.-The
opening of bids requested for the
paving OF North Main street, Metu-
chen, is expected at the weekly sea-
sion of the Board of Freehoiders
this afternoon. The material called
for in the specifications IL warren
lite on a concrete base but since the
borough council of Metuchen has
come out strongly in favor OF con-
crete 1t is probable that today's bids
will he rejected and new ones on con-
crete work advertised.
In accordance with pre-primary
campaign promises. the freeholders
last week decided that the best thing
would be to refer the matter of paw
ing Main stree. to the borough couri-
Gil in an effort to determine Just what
sort of road was wanted. When the
council received notice of the inten-
ton of the Board of Freeholders. its
members lost no time in going on
record in favor of concrete to the
exclusion of all patent top mater
ials.
AS a result It looks as though the
bids to be received this afternoon on
warrenite paving would have to be
rejected If the Metuchen taxpayers
are to get the sort of paving they
desire.
