nal tribute in appreciation of past

report, that Albert Phillips, another
labor member of the board. is vice

Claim Frelinghuysen's Con-
version Costs in Tariff Help
to Workers

RARITAN. Aug. 31.-Additional
evidences that argiculturists and in
dustrialists everywhere appreciate
the importance of the scientific tariff
revision which has been written into
the senate tariff bill through the eff
forts of senator Frelinghuysen, are
seen in the letters hat are being
sent him. Among the most recenl
expressions signifying an apprecia-
ton of his effort to take the tariff
out of politics and substitute instead
a scientific measure based on finu.
ings of fact are the Johnson-Cow-
din-Emerich Company of Paterson.
and the Wright Aeronautical Com
pany. also of Paterson
IL. X. Walker, vice president of
the Observation-Disclosures Com
pany declares in his letter that Sem
ator Frelinghuysen's establishment
of the principle that conversion
costs are the primary bases for a
tariff is a great forward step for
which labor everywhere throughout
the country owes him a duty.
Mr.. Walkers letter Is as follows:
MY dear Senator F'relinghuysen:
A manufacturers in the state of
New Jersey depending almost en-
tirely upon an American market
which must necessarily be governed
by the general economic stability of
the country. we wish to express on.
appreciation for the wise and cour-
ageous stand you have taken in
reference to the pending tariff bill.
w believe that your amendment

the Tariff Commission to investigate
the differences between production
costs here and abroad and on those

which will be proclaimed by the
President, will go far toward assur-
ing business throughout the com
try freedom from every serious d.s-
turbances to which it has hitherto
been subject owing to our methods
of tariff making.
I'VE believe that the f1exibility OF
the tariff that Is permitted under
your amendment giving the COM
mission power to hold hearings con-
stantly and to recommend changes
of rates whenever they are proven
necessary will add materially to the
stability of enterprises everywhere.
The recognition by the senate at
your urging of the fact that CONVEX
sion costs. i. e., the labor involved
in manufacturing, Is the primary
basis for a tariff tax is a great st.p
forward and labor everywhere
throughout the country should I'M
derstand that in you they have found
a friend whose practical help does
much to assure the maintenance of
the present American wage scale
even during this period Of depress-
cd foreign manufacturing costs.
I'VE hope that the people of New

that you have rendered every e'e-

READY T0ACT
ON NEWFERRY
Meeting Of So. Amboy Com
mon Council to Discuss
Project Are Favorable

SOUTH AMBOY. Aug. 31.--A
regular business meeting of the COM
mon council will be held in the
mayors office of the city han to-
morrow night. 1t is expected Thai a
final thrashing in the matter of the
ferry project will take place at this
time.
The sentiment of the people of the
city seem to favor the coming of
tho ferry. 1t might be said thai: a
great number are awaiting some
sign that means the beginning of
the terminal on this side of the river.
Now that the city of New York
is or the verge of completing its
part of the program at Sea Breeze.
there should be nothing to hinder
the work beginning on this side. 1t
is understood that the Jersey Coast
Ferry Company assumes a very
heavy item of expense just as soon
as the terminal at e Breeze is
completed. IL this is so. wisdom
on the part of the ferry officials Will
demand immediate action either in
this city or at Morgan. the LATER
place being mentioned recently as
a possible landing place for the
ferry If the franchise this city Of
fers 10 too stringent.
The fact hat there is a possibility
of the ferry proposition slipping
from this city is a good reason why
the members of the council should
do all in their power to bring about
the establishment of ferry service
right here In South Amboy. especial
Ivy when there is an opportunity OF
doing so.
lone does not have TO be so very
old" said a man the other day, ito
remember how South Amtoy lost al
chances of becoming an industrial
center. When large corporations
wanted to locate here It was just
considered as a matter of course
that these men sent representatives
to this city to inquire about certain
lands they had in mind to purchase
1t mean a regeneration Jt .he town,
had they received any consideration
instead of being confronted with
enormous prices for the lands they
wanted. 1t was a case of be sure to
get enough for what you give. and
it resulted in just nothing. The city
lost what it might have gained. had
those overseers of the taxpayers en-
couraged the large plants to locate
here"
Now that the ferry company is
anxious to locate here. many believe
hat the council should encourage
their movement, lest they turn to
another point. eliminating this city
entirely. The money derived from
the gross receipts of the ferry should
help considerably to improve the
streets Of the city and to do other
much needed work without digging
into the pocket of the taxpayer.
