rived from the dock would easily pay
for its upkeep."
Speaking on the opposition lately
instigated by the Democrats, the
mayor points out hat former mayor
Joseph A. Hermann In his annual
message for the years 1924, 1916,
1917, and 1919 earnestly and enthu-
slastically advocated the purchase oil
a dock site and the erection of a
public dock and recreation pier.
Here the mayor directed the report
er's attention to a printed brochure
bearing the address made by Mr..
Hermann on January /, 1919 which
says:
THE subject of a public dock is
one that has engaged our serious
thought for a number of years and
there is no question in any reason
able mind about the necessity of
having one at a proper location.
Any definite action was beyond us
during the war period, but now the
proper committee should take up the
question of what is honestly the best
location that will most imparaatially
meet the needs of the people and the
business of both Carteret and
Chrome.
And after this has been fairly
decided then efforts should be made
to secure the necessary lands and
roadway by direct purchase and if
this cannot be done, then by con-
demnation proceedings. This subject
has been waiting SO long for conclu-
sive action that it is felt the council
should not let the year pass without
showing the possession and wne
ship of a public dock"
The mayor further points out to a
message of Mr.. Herman of January
l, 1916, in which the latter calls to
the attention of the fact that the
people at a special election, called
for that purpose, authorized the is
suance of bonds for the purchase of
a public dock property, and that the
proposition was carried by an over
whelming vote, there being but five
or six votes against 1t. HE also as
early as 1914" said Mayor Mulvihill,
advocated in his annual message
the erection Of a new municipal
building. Likewise in 1921 and 1922
he devoted a large amount of space
in favor of the same subject"
"Are lot these messages conclu-
sive proof that the Democrats have
keenly wanted a dock?" says the
mayor. Nov, then why have the
Democrats suddenly changed front
on these two vital necessities to the
borough? 1t looks to me as If the
sole purpose in coming out against
these Improvements at this time is
to take the glory and credit away
from the Republican party, which Is
now not only advocating but about
to realize these improvements"
Concluding, Mayor Mulvihill said
that there Is no duobt that If the
people will vote in favor of these
propositions at the election Novem-
Der 6, the Republicans are deter
mined to carry out the wishes of the
citizens Of the borough.
