WOODBRIDGE. April 10.-Schooi
street, north of Hurds Brook, may
] become restricted property II the
petition received from property own
ers in this section of the street, at
the meeting of the Township Com
mittee last night, is favorably acted
upon. The petition requested that
the committee take such action that
lin the future the erection of houses
valued at less than $4,000 will be
prohibited in that section.
The petition was referred to the
committee on township affairs and
II will probably be some weeks be-
fore definite action is taken on the
matter. This delay is due to an in
vestigation that must be carried on
and conferences that must be held
before the committee as a whole can
act upon the matter. Usually IN the
! case of restricted property, the prop
erty is restricted by the real estate
arm selling the property or the own
or from whom it Is purchased and
the restrictions are incorporated In
the deed.
In this instance, however, the
governing body of the township is
requested to place the restrictions
and this must be done with the o
operation of the building inspector,
zoning committee and committee on
township affairs.
Committeeman-at-large Louis Neu-
berg stated today that the commit
tee will try to comply with the re-
quest of the residents, but that it
will probably be sometime before
the various committees and those
working with them will be in posi-
ton to make recommendations on
which the committee as a whole al
act.

Mr.. Neuberg brought up the coun'
police phone system and urged
that this matter be brought to the
attention OF the county Officials
and various police departments in
the county as a much needed sys-
in the capturing OF law break
srs This system as explained by Mr..
.euberg Is similar to the one now
successfully used in Union county.

by a private wire and the minute
