IN BAD SHAPE
Chief Tonnesen Takes Up
Matter With City Officials
Road is Closed

The condition of outer Amboy ave-
nue., at Inslee street, a result of the
heavy rainfalls during latter part
of last week, resulted in Chief
Niels j. Tonnesen taking the matter
UP with Alderman Thomas Patten
and Peter J .McKeon, the contrac-
tor yesterday. The chief feared that
accidents and property damage
would result from the condition of
the road.
Following receipt of word from
the chief, McKeon closed the street
to traffic and last night the contrac-
tor notified Lieutenant william Cal
vim that Woodbridge bus drivers had
opened the street again. The lieu
tenant suggested that Il watchman
be placed at the scene. He told the
contractor that any bus driver at
tempting to pass the Road Clos
ed sign would be summoned.
The action of the chief in calling
the street committee chairman and
tn alderman followed an investiga-
ton of the condition by Mounted
officer Joseph Hartung. Mr.. Nc
Keon has promised to remedy the
condition at once, so that the road
can be reopened.

Candidates Busy Rushing
Voters to Polls --CloSe Con-
tests Are Indicated Here
EARLY VOTE is LIGHT
Efforts Made to Get Out Big
Registration Today for
Fall Election

Although the voting was light
during the early hours of the open
ing of the polls here today, indica-
tions were that one of the most
spirited primaries in the history of
the city would be seen before the
polls closing at 10 o'clock tonight.
The polls opened at o'clock with
the vote up until noon light.
The candidates, together with
their workers. had many automo-
biles in service. taking those to the
polls whom are eligible to vote.
other candidates, unopposed at the
primaries, were busy themselves in
getting unregistered voters to the
polls in order that they might quail
fly for the general election.
Only those who voted at last
years general election or who reg
istered on September IL are quail
Afed to vote at today's primaries.
Z A person who did not vote at last
years general election and did not
register on the first registration day
two weeks ago. cannot register to-
day and vote at today's primaries
also.
Despite the fact that there have
this fall, today's activities proved
that the candidates have been active
and been conducting a strenuous,
but quiet, campaign among the
voters.
Local interest centered in the four
.ldermanie nomination contests. In
the second ward Ronald Kleckner,
Harry B. Afflerbach and Edward A.
Lembcke are fighting it out for the
Republican nomination. Afflerbach
yesterday published a notice deny
ing that he had withdrawn from the
race and this morning all three can
didates and their friends were con-
ducting a hot campaign in the sec
ond ward
In the fourth ward Alderman
Robert A. M%Guire is being opposed
for the Democratic aldermanic nom
ination by Charles Dorian, excise
commissioner. Both men were bring
ing about an equal number of voters
to the polls this morning and 1t
looked like a nip and tuck fight to
the end.
The sixth ward is proving the real
battle-ground of the city's contests
with both Republican and Democra-
tic aldermanic nominations at stake
Both sides have four candidates and
all of them have hopes of winning
The resr4t of so many contenders for
the nomination will mean a close
race and neither the Democratic nor
the Republican candidate is expected
