LAST HEARING
ON R. R. LAND
Case of P. A. Flour and
Grain Co. Before Condem-
nation Board Today

When the condemnation hearing
in the city hall was continued today
by the commission appointed to con-
slider the condemnation of the land
necessary for the elimination of the
railroad grade crossings through this
nty, the case of the Perth Amboy
Flour & Grain Company. which was
begun at the last hearing, was con-
tinued.
A Mr.. Bently, representing an en-
cheering firm OF Elizabeth, told of
the cost necessary to replace the
building. This cost. Mr.. Bently stat
ed, would be $4,000. He went into
lengthy details concerning the mate
rails used in the buildings the cost
of painting and other incidentals. He
declared that the reproduction cost
exclusive of painting. plumbing and
electric wiring would be $4,253.
F. B. Brewster of Woodbridge,
who was called by Thomas Brown,
attorney for the firm, declared that
he had advised the company to To-
cate on that site as 1t was the most
desirable for that business to be
found in the city. He said that the
good will of the business was worth
$4,000. He stated he was of the
opinion that the rirm paid $500 for
the property.

SEVER BID HIGH
LiddIe & Pfeiffer, Only Bidder
Place the Cost of Work at
S66, 900
MORE THAN LAST YEAR
Highest Bid Last Year, $48,-
600, for More Work, Was
Rejected

The new Lehigh Park sewer Sys-
tenn appears to be no nearer a real
ity today than it did several years
ago when 1t was first considered.
In fact, the receipt by the aldermen
last night of but one bid for this
work and the figures of that bid
would indicate that this improve
ment will not oe put through as
planned this year.
The only bid on the work received
by the aldermen last night was from
LiddIe & Pfeiffer. it representing
lump sum of about $4,000. This
figure is $4,000 higher than the
lowest bid received last year on the
Lehigh Park sewer system work. An
important fact in connection with
the work advertised for this year Is
that some of the work along Amboy
avenue, which would cost between
$4,000 and 10000 was not Included
in this years specifications. II TINS
work was included, as was done last
year, it would have boosted t1e to'al
up to about $4,000 or apprcxf-
mately $4,000 more than the 1929
figures for the same work.
When bids were first secured
ea1lv last June, the bid of Liddle &c
Pteiffer was low at $48,5S0.40. Three
other bids were received, the high
est being s64.415.55. The aldermen
rejected all bids considering them
too high and readvertised. believing
lower figures would be subnzitted.
When bids were again received for
the same work q few weeks later,
Liddle & Pfeiffer again were low,
but on this occasion their figures
were $337.50 higher than their first
bid One other bid was received
at the time. this also showing an
increase. The aldermen again re-
jected the bids and decided to wait

Booz for tabulation, but it does not
seem likely the aldermen will award
the contract, considering the cost
too high.

.EIKS PUSH CAMPAIGN
FOR THE BOY SCOUTS

With the contributions coming in
gradually for the Boy Scout mem
bership campaign being conducted
by Perth Amboy Lodge No. 7S4
Benevolent and Protective Order OF
Elks, the committee in charge OF
the campaign expect that everything
will be finished by next week.
The committee of which Past State
President H. E. Pickersgill is the
chairman, met last night at the Elks
Home and talked over further plans
for bringing the campaign to close.
Several substantial contributions
were received last night and others
came in this morning that is boost
ing the fund along. Henry McCul-
Tough, the treasurer of the COM
mittee is sending out more letters
seeking contributions to the fund
and he Is also mailing a follow-up
letter TO those who have already re-
ceived a letter and failed to reply.
While the committee had in mind
the sum of $4,000 for the total
amount to be secured in the cam
paign they are hopeful that the
amount will far over reach that sum
at the close of the drive. Following
the mass meeting held at the Perth
Amboy high school last week there
were a number of good sized con-
tributions received from various
sources. The organization of the
troop that is to come under the Jur-
isdiction of the EllSs will be started
at the close OF the campaign IT has
been made known.

Of the railroad systems of the coun-
try will be undertaken in the next
congress, Chairman Cummins of the

today, after a discussion of the rail-
road problem with President Har-
ding.
Senator Cummins declared the
proposed consolidation was the only
solution short OF government owner
ship and added that the president
and he were agreed that government
ownership was not to be considered.
''I think consolidation of the rail-
way systems as initiated in the trans

gaining the efficiency that the coun-
try requires of the railroads." said
Senator Cummins. Moreover, it
seems to me to be the only method
of bringing down freight rates on
commodities on which the rate must
