Believing that the new county

women of New Jersey who partici-
pated in the late war, Perth Amboy
Post, No. 45 of the American Legion,
at it's meeting last night, went on
record as being supporters of the
movement to have the new bridge
dedicated to the former service men
and women of the state. With this
object in view the adjutant was in
structed to communicate with Mid
dleseX oounty's representative in the
senate and assembly, asking them to
aid in carrying out the project.
AS a member of the county COM
mittee working for the passage of
the national adjusted compensation
measure, Ronald Kleckner reported
on the steps which had been taken
to insure the support of this county.
He told of the plan adopted in sup
port of the bonus to every fraternal
organization in the county, and then
warned the Legion that il the bill is
to pass the members must get out
and work for it among the people.
Noting the active opposition that
has becom, evident in newspapers.
magazines and literature broadcast
ed by the antagonists of the bill,
Kleckner urged That every mem
ber of the post get out and combat
this unfavOrable trend with argu-
meuts in favor the bonus.

1t was announced by members OF
The county committee that the local
representative would appear before
