interpretations Urged
Committees from number Of towns
along the Black Horse pike made an
other trip to Trenton in a deter
mined effort to have some action
taken on the bills presented early in
the session that will benefit several of
! the towns.
1t is now feared that the bills for
the incorporation of Mount Ephraim.
Bellmawr and Runnemede as bor-
oughs will not be passed. The bills
for the incorporation of Strafford and
Clenmenton as boroughs, presented at
! the same time, we're passed and
signed by Governor SiIzer, and plans
1 are under way to hold special cleo
lions at those places for the voters to
approve the appropriation.
Committee called upon Senator
Woodruff and members Of the Assem-
| bly, and they were told that it will be
necessary to get together and reach
an agreement or else the bills would
not be passed. Emmissaries have
4 been at work and another strong Ell
fort Is to be made to get some action.
The first fight is being conferred on
] Fairfield. Haddon Heights wants that
district and Mount Ephraim still is de-
termined to have the section become
a part of that place.
