WILL PROTECT INTEREST OF H RARlTAN

The Raritan Terminal and Waterways Association is
fortunate in being able to secure man like Peter U. Olsen
10 succeed the late Jean Du Bots as president of the organi-
cation. We doubt if a man can be found who has the interest
of Raritan bay and river more at heart than Mr.. Olsen. He is
ia w waterway man in every sense OF the word. There is every
reason to believe that the excellent work already done by the
sTaritan Terminal and Waterways Association will continue
with renewed energy under the leadership of its new presi-
dent. 49,
One of the principal things that will engage the atten-
ton of this association this year will be the matter of a free
zone on the south shore of I'aritan bay, provided the report
of the Port of New York Authority is adopted by the legisla-
lures of New York and New Jersey. This will mean a real
fight because there are several other influential sections Of
The port that wants this free zone.
There is 10 one better qualified to lead the fight for
iiaritan bay than Mr.. Olsen. He is thoroughly familiar with
with the purposes of a free port and the features that are es-
sential for such a zone.
1t is a matter of qualification 10 the whole Raritan dis
lrict that a man of Mr.. Olsens ability and enthusiasm has
been secured to head the Raritan Terminal and Waterways
Association for the coming year which maybe one of the
most important in the history of the organization.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-An
army of red, juicy, southern sweet
| potatoes is marching on the north
ern markets to compete with the
paler and drier Jersey sweet potato
which has for generations held the
.leld almost unchallenGed. In fact,
some of the southern invaders are
already here.
A good many carloads of them
have reached Washington, which has
always used some, and points north
should be prepared for the invasion.
The southerners have planned an in
siye advertising campaign, and asso-
Citations are being formed all
through the South for the purpose
of pushing the sweet potato cam
paign.
If you want to help the South,
which is just nov having a struggle
with hard times and the boil weevil,
and incidentally add a new delicacy
to your table, buy southern sweet
potatoes, Serve them candied and
make sweet potato pie out OF them.
If you do not know how, you can
find the recipes in any complete
cookbook.
Nor does this necessarily mean
abandoning the Jersey potato for
it's more %succulent southern rival.
The people of the United States
could profitably eat q great many
more sweet potatoes than they do.
and there is every reason why they
should eat both kinds, for the south
ern and northern potato differ
enough to be considered two distinct
vegetables.
1t is possible to debate at great
length their respective merits. The
Jersey sweet potato is dry. almost
powdery when cooked, and has a
low sugar content compared to the
southern variety. The southern po-
tato is %succulent and high In sugar
content. 1t candies beautifully, and
when rightly cooked is a real deli
cacy Any s%outherner can become
eloquent on short notice about his
native sweet potato. He does not
see how anyone can eat the dry ana
sugarless northern potato when ne
might have a big red sweet potato
that is really sweet. He also makes
the claim that this southern. sweet
potato is an especially digestible ar
ticle. Not only is the potato easily
assimulated itself, he claims, but 1t
acts as a digestive for other foods
and especially for rich meats. so
that roast pork and 'possum are al
Ways served with sweet potatoes in
the South. The sourtherners &c so
far as to claim that Indigestion Is a
rare complaint in the southern sweet
potato belt, and they attribute this
largely to the high digestive value OF
he sweet potato.
Advantages of Southern Potato
Whatever there may be in this
claim, there is no doubt that the
southern sweet potato deserves a

NO EXCUSE FOR MAURER

Alderman at large Galvins idea that the Maurer sta
lion on the Central railroad should be changed to North
Perth Amboy, or some similar title to indicate that it S a part
Of Perth Amboy, is excellent and ought to be carried out.
The Post office al Maurer was changed some time ago so as
come under the jurisdiction of the main Perth Amboy Of
fee. Maurer is within the city limits and there is no reason
now for it to retain a separate name than there is for any
ether section of the city to have a name all its own.
Time was, in the early days, when Maurer, although
within the city boundary as fixed by the city charter, was a
place apart. That was before State street was cut through
and before SO many other industries besides the Maurer brick
works were located there. Today Maurer is Perth Amboy
in every sense of the word and the industries located in that
section ought to give the city the recognition that is its
due. .E- Euz ~-
