AMBOY AVENUE PROGRESS

In coming to a definite agreement with officials of the
Barber Asphalt Company on the exchange of properties by
which Amboy avenue will be Strengthened out, the Board Of
Aldermen took a great step forward for Perth Amboy. Not
only is the road to Woodbridge to be made direct and several
bad turns and grades eliminated by this action, but the
asphalt company is given a chance to expand their present
plant.
The next step taken in the Amboy avenue matter has
been taken with the State Highway Commission, which body
recently requested the city to take some action to bring the
situation to a conclusion. The conference at the Barber
plant yesterday ended so satisfactorily that the city at once
notified the state commission that all the details have been
arranged for starting the paving work. The highway COM
mission announced some time ago that provisions had been
made for financing the Amboy avenue paving project, so
from all indications a good, direct route from Perth Amboy
to Woodbridge is at last in sight. At the same time pressure
should be brought to bear on the state board by the city off,
Gals to have the work started as soon as possible. The
present paving, which was temporarily repaired by the
Board of Freeholders before the road was turned over to the
city is fast becoming in bad condition and unless more
money is spent on emergency repairs, the paving will not
stand the strain of this summers traffic and the rigors OF
the coming winter. For this reason the state commission
should be urged to start work on the new route as soon as
possible.
Gradually the city's problems are being solved. Great
progress has been made in getting the sewer plans started
to provide for the grade crossing elimination as well as
changing the outlets at the city water front. Action is under
wav to solve traffic difficulties which, by the way will be
helped by the new route to Woodbridge. With these prob
lens out of the way, efforts should be directed to provide for
suitable railroad facilities so that Perth Amboys industries
can expand. 1t has been shown that the way to reach
agreements is bv a frank discussion of the issues of the case
around the conference table and there is every indication
that the siding matter could be adjusted in the same way.

a USE FOR u. S. SHIPPING

The coal strike, despite its obvious and various disad-
vantages, seems to have unearthed a real use for the nations
merchant marine, something that has not heretofore been
discovered since the war. The government, according to
Washington dispatches, is preparing to use no less than 400
Of the Shipping Board steamers in the transportation of fuel
fromEurope.
President Harding is reported to have discussed the
matter fully with Chairman Lasker of the Shipping Board
and to have consented to a trial of the plan, and Mr.. Lasker
believes that, without adding to existing facilities, the
Boards ships can bring in as much as 800, 900 tons a month,
and that, if necessary, the total could be boosted beyond the
million ton mark. Costly repairs would be necessary, how
ever, and the outward trip would have to be made in ballast.
The Shipping Board vessels were built to meet a war
emergency, but most of them were launched too late to be
Of great service at that time. If, in this great domestic
emergency they can be utilized to advantage, the people of
nous cost.
