liar tactics prevented the making OF a

Those tactics did not prevail with the
Legislature of 1921. They have now

New York Herald Bureau
- Albany. Jan. o.
Gov. Miller sent a special message
to the Legislature this evening urging
immediate approval of the Port Au-
thority plan for developing New York
harbor.
Charging the city administration
with bad faith, tie Governor declares
that its attitude is driving shipping
from the port and imposing an un-
necessary burden on all the public by
maintaining the unnecessary expense
of handling foodstuffs and freight with
the inadequate facilities.
4 The Hylan administration appears
to be entirely satisfied merely to OBJ
struct all constructive work, the mes
sage charges. The city officials mis-
used the authority given by the bill
providing for construction of Staten
Island tunnel and under misapplica-
ton Of that act Eave brought out a
substitute port plan knowing that its
estimated cost of $225,000,000 makes
It prohibitive and places it outside
the debt limit, the Governor says.
Politics should nave no part in the
port project, the urgent need being
for development on a big scale, the
message states. But even consider
ing the politics involved, the Governor
points out that the Democratic State
party approved the interstate Port
Authority treaty. The plan offered is
not perfect. but is sound fundamen-
tally, the Governor finds, and urges
quick action. His message was read
in both Houses tonight. 1t follows:
"To the Legislature
1.-THE report of the Port of New York
Authority with a comprehensive plan
for development of the port district has
been transmitted to the Legislature as
required by chapter EOS of the Laws of
1921.
"'The approval of the comprehensive
plan by the Legislatures Of the two
states is by chapter 154 of the laws
az 1921 and r the compact between. the
States entered into pursuant thereto

plan are taking upon themselves a grave
responsibility against the growth and
development of the Port of New York
To deny the port a comprehensive plan
will not only hold back its further de-
,elopment. but will serve notice to the
rest of the country that New York is
not prepared to make the best OF It's
great natural advantages. The plan
presented by the Port Authority is a
plan for the equal beneft of both New
York and New Jersey and Of the entire
nation"

gineer of the Board of Estimate, an

the pressing necessity OF port improve
ment and suggests as a substitute for
the Port Authority already created by
the compact between the two States that
q new State be organized comprising the
los municipalities within the port dis
trict. Meanwhile It is proposed by the
New York city administration that II Is
a suitable agency to undertake the de-
velopment of port facilities In district
comprising parts of two States and 104
municipalities besides the city of New
York, and to coordinate the terminal ia
cilities Of the trunk railroads most Of
which terminate I'm the State OF New
Jersey
Last year the bill authorizing the
compact between the two States wes op-
posed by the city administration on the
ground that il violated home rule. After
its passage and when the question of its
approval by Congress was pending the
city's opposition to such approval was
put upon the ground that the compact
was an interference with the Federal
power 10 regulate interstate commerce.
THE truth Is that no power. no right,
no property OF the city is TO be interfered
with. and the powers of the Port Au-
thority are such that they could not be
exercised by the local administration OF
assuming that such agency were other
wise suited or had the capacity to un-
dertake-the task.
..rhe power of each municipality to
develop it's own water front is expressly
preserved.
There is no power in the Port Au-
thority to pledge the credit either OF the
municipalities or of the State. Any plan
which 1t presents will have to be financed
on its own merits.
1.-THE Port Authority has already been
constituted The compact creating it has
been unanimously approved by Congress.
1t is the one existing agency having the
power, the capacity. the public conf
dence, the necessary contacts with other
agencies, municipal, State and national.
and the knowledge of the problem re-
quired for the inauguration of prompt
measures of relief.
Better Coordination Needed.
obviously the first thing to do is to
bring about better coordination and
un!fication OF existing facilities so as to
secure a maximum of efficiency at a
minimum of expense and delay. The re-
port discloses that much can be done in
that respect. That work needs to be be-
gun now, not next year or the year after
or some indefinite time in the future.
The approval OF the plan is essential to
the first step.
The port Of New York, with its bays
and rivers. its 500 miles OF water front,
much of 1t still undeveloped. offers un-

The following is from the Middle

On Saturday afternoon, the both,
at 3 o'clock, a pretty home wedding
was solemnized at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Edgar M. Congdon, on New
field street, when their daughter
Alice, was united in marriage to Carl
Parker Ford, by the Rev. William
Harvey Bath, of Norwich, an intimate
friend of the family. The wedding
march was played by Miss Jennette
Stott, of Danvers, Mass, a niece of

The house was prettily decorated,
the ceremony taking place under a
canopy of pink and white asters and
asparagus fern.
The bride was becomingly attired
in white canton crepe, with pearl
trimmings, and carried a shower bou-
quet of bridal roses and lilies of the
valley.
They were the recipients of many
beautiful gifts.
After the ceremony the happy cou-
pie left on a short wedding trip. On
their return they will go to their new
home at Barton, VT, where Mr.. Ford

s11OO WANTED FOR CHILDREN
Orleans County Must Not Fail to
Meet It's Quota for Great Work

Under direction of Mrs. w. w. Reir-
den of Barton the work of organizing
the county for the purpose of securing
help for the Children's Aid society of
Vermont, which is working with des-
titute and needy children and finding
them homes, giving them medical aid
and bringing neglected children to
better things, is fast taking shape
One check for 500 has already
been received and another for $25 and
several sections of the county are
getting into shape for the canvass.
In Newport c. S. Emery and Rev.
E. B. Rankin are organizing the city;
in Barton Mrs. E. w. Barron and Mrs.
J. F. Batchelder have charge of the
work; in North Troy, Miss Nellie
Reirden and Mrs. E. V. Young; in
Derby Line, Miss Rouse; in Orleans,
Mrs. r. A. Hamilton; in Charleston,
Mrs. John Buck; in Coventry, Mrs.
Henry Goss, and other communities
are being organized just as fast as
Mrs. Reirden can reach them.
The work is among the most worthy
causes done by any institution in the
state and the sum of S11OO in the
county ought easily to be raised.
Let's all do our share.

JAY PEAK DAY SET
Friday, October 20, Day When North
eastern Vermont Will Visit
Mountain.

Jay Peak day has finally been set
for Friday, October 20, and it is ex-
pected speakers from the Green
Mountain club will be present at the
meeting place at the foot of the peak
and if the day is pleasant there is a
fine spot for picnicking. Those who
desire to do so will find opportunity
to climb the mountain.
A committee of five from the Bar
ton Improvement club and commit
tee of five from the Newport Cham
Der of Commerce as well as the Green
Mountain club is behind Jay Peak day
and it is hoped to learn further of
the mountain trail now built from the
Massachusetts line to Stowe. One of
the objects of Jay Peak day is to talk
over plans for extending this skyline
trail to Jay Peak. Many prominent
people from New York, Boston and
other centers are hiking this trail and
if extended to Jay Peak it would pro-
vide terminus for the trail which
would mean much to this part of the
state.
Jay Peak is the fourth highest
peak in Vermont and deserves great
er exploitation. Remember the day
and plan to go.
