WOODBRIDGE, Jan. 15.-Steps
were taken by the North End Tax
payers Association at it's meeting l n
the Presbyterian Sunday school
room last Friday to have the Wedge

provement. A report from the COM
mittee on industries stated that sue
cessful opposition had been made to
the location of the asphalt mixing

as favoring a zoning ordinance suit
able as a residential section, 1t was
decided to appeal to the township
committee for sufficient cinders to
make Leona and Lewis streets pass
able. A formal request was drawn
up asking the township committee
for lights on Leona and Lewis streets
and Schroeder avenue. A request for
additional lights along Freeman and
Prospect streets also will be made
of the township committee.
A petition to the gas company
asking for gas service in the Wedge

quest the township committee to
name a regular licensed private gar
bage collector to visit the homes, the
cost to be charged directly against
the persons served.
A request to the freeholders that
Railway avenue from the reforma-
tory to the Presbyterian church be
paved was decided upon. This
