FERRY WOULD BE POPULAR

II there ever was a time when a ferry would
be appreciated it is now when the state highway
: bridge is out of commission. Even If the ferry
operated only between South Amboy and Tot
tenville, as is proposed. 1t would be a greater
convenience here to use the two ferries, going
first to Tottenville and then to South Amboy,
than to take the twenty-five mile detour around
by New Brunswick traversing for most of the
distance one of the Most congested roads in the
country. Perhaps, in an emergency like this,
the ferry could also make at least a temporary
landing at Perth Amboy thereby doing away
with the necessity of local patrons being robbed
by the Staten Island Rapid Transit to get across
to Tottenville in order to board the South Am
boy boat.
As a matter OF fact. in consideration not only
of the enormous local traffic between the Am
boys, but the vast amount of traffic coming
down through Newark to this point, there Is
reason to believe that a ferry between Totem
willie and South Amboy and touching at Perth
Anboy going in both directions. would be a f.
nanciaI success. OF course, eventually the new
state highway bridge will be erected and the
route leading up thereto re-arranged so, that
most Of this traffic will pass around the out
skirts of the city. But it will be several years
before this new bridge is opened and, in the
meantime, It is doubtful If the present bridge
ran carry the increasing traffic. A ferry at a
reasonable rate of fare could not help but draw
big. And during a shutdown like the present
the ferry would have everything its own way.
Almost anything would be better than the twen-
ty-nve mile detour around by the way OF New
Brunswick.
For local business men who have built up a
Tremendous trade south of the river the closing
of the bridge means a great loss. Although South
Amboy is only across the river a couple Of miles
away, it now necessitates a ffty-mile automobile
trip to get there and back. What this means in
time and expense only the merchants operating
trucks can realize.
A ferry to the south shore Of the Raritan
just nf.w would be a God-send to the business
nen va commuters of this vicinity.

TIVE MEASURES MUST BE TAKEN

bunds like something worth while in safe
harding the reputation and morals of the city.
ruly, Perth Aniboy has had enough of the
brgies that have drawn such a disorderly ele-

we're necessary.
The people have confidence in Chief Tonne
ken TO go the limit to put an end to such
{lisgraceful affairs. If there are no laws or ordi-
hances whereby the chief may act, Alderman
sbdeld may be depended upon to see that proper

Everyone who has the welfare Of the city at
