Perth Amboy evening news., 1922-03-04

With the reporting of the rivers and harbors bill to
congress by the Committee on Rivers and Harbors another
step is taken toward obtaining that most desirable thirty
foot channel in Raritan bay. Congressman Appleby has
been doing excellent work at Washington in this matter.
He has succeeded in keeping it before the committee and
getting it advanced to the floor of the House. The next
fight is to secure the approval Of the Committee on Appro-
priations.
Here, perhaps, is where Congressman Appleby Will
need some help. We all know of the need of economy In
government affairs and the effort that is being made to cut
down government appropriations. But, at the same tlme'
The progress of the nation must not be interrupted. The i'm
nrovement of Raritan bay is one of The most important proJ-
ects in connection with the development OF the Port OF New
York and because of the recent state legislation both in New
Jersey and New York creating a port authority, there is rea-
son to believe that congress may be led to look with favor
on this project at this time.
At least it is up to Perth Amboy and vicinity to do
everything possible to put this project through. Those who
claim to have the interest of this section at heart ought to
be enthusiastic in supporting Congressman Appleby in the
good work he is doing.
A thirty foot channel up the bay from Sandy Hook to
Perth AmbOy would mean wonderful developments here.
1t would put Perth Amboy on the may commercially. Its
importance cannot be over-estimaed. Now that it is in
sight there ought to be a unanimous and enthusiastic effort
10 put it across. The authorities who are entrusted with the
advancement of the city's interests ought to keep in touch
with Congressman AppIeby ready at any time to do what
ever is necessary to make this thirty foot channel a reality.
