MORE LIGHTHOUSES ARE
URGED IN ANNUAL REPORT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-For i'm
proving the aids to navigation main
tanned by the u. S. Lighthouse Serv-
ice along the New Jersey coast and
adjacent waters, appropriations to-
failing $27S, $50 + recommended
by the commissioner of lighthouses
in his annual report to the secretary
of commerce submitted to Congress.
The items included are, for es-
tablishment of new lights in Newark
Bay and Hackensack River, 6 1000;
improving and extending the wharves
at the general lighthouse depot,
Tompktnsville, Staten Island. S119.-
COO; providing new storage build
1ngs at the same place, $4,000, and
purchasing land. building dock and
s~torehouse for the establishment OF
n lighthouse depot at Atlantic City,
S14,950.
With the amount requested for
Newark Bay, it is proposed to es-
tablish six new acetylene lights on
the Hackensack River, and one in
Newark Bay in the east side of the
channel between Newark Bay light
No 3 and the PENNSYLVANIA Rail-
road bridge. The reason given is
that the traffic in the H~ackensaclS
has increased so greatly in the past
few years that lights are needed to
permit of night navigation. In the
bay, an additional light is declared to
be necessary on account of the mar
rcwness of the channel, since the
lights on the bridge are of so low a
power and usually obscured by
smoke that they are of no aid in
navigating the channel.

METUCHEN, Dec. 1S.-App!ica-
ton for permission to erect an oil

ENDORSE PLANS
Of JOHN LYNCH
South Shore Association on
Record for Purchase of
Transit Lines by City

ToTTENvILLE, Dec. 1S.-Reso-
lutions were adopted by the South
Shore Protective Association at its
meeting last night at the lakewood
Arms, lakewood Heights, endorsing
the plan of Borough President John
A. Lynch for the purchase of the
Staten Island Rapid Transit lines
by the City of New York. This was
done following the report of the
transportation committee given be-
fore the meeting. Another resolu-
ton that is Of interest to everyone
on this end of the island is the one
drafted to Commissioner Grover
Whalen, of the department of plants
n structures of the city of New
York, asking him whether the New
Jersey Coast Ferry Company were
acomplying with the terms of the
anchise for the ferry from Sea
Breeze to South Amboy and what
time the same Is expected to be put
In operation between Staten Island
and New Jersey.
These two matters were the prin-
cipal ones taken up at the meeting
of the association last night and each
will be pushed the same as all others
that the association has ever taken
up and pushed to the end. Borough
President Lynch has been a strong
advocate of the purchase of the
Rapid Transit lines by the city of
New York ever since he first took
office and he ear to push the
matter through the board of estimate
Of which he is a member. The ferry
problem has often been the subject
OF the association ever since work
was stopped on the building of the
terminal at Sea Breeze, a year ago
the first of this month.
The work at the terminal was
about half finished at that time and
everything has been lying idle since
then. The city Of New York in the
meantime completed a thirty-five
foot concrete roadway from Amboy
road to the proposed ferry terminal
and laid plans for the extension of
the trackless trolley system to that
point.
A report on the matter of Crooks
Point at Great Kills to be secured
for park purposes was heard. This
land was sold by the state some time
ago to private interests and the as
ISOLATION is endeavoring to have the
city secure 1t for park purposes. The
street Improvement at Bogardus
Corners was again brought up and
it was learned that the matter will
be placed on the next calendar for
the local board meeting. Five new
members Joined the association at
this time and it was decided to meet
at Great Kills for the next meeting.
Augustus c.. Marscher, president of
the association, was in the chair.
