state’s Division Tourism, he said.

Shore protection and dredging have been ongoing concerns for the assemblyman, Hurley

said.

Hurley currently has a bill before the assembly that would establish a $25 million dredging program. The prpgram would be for continual maintenance of inlets and harbors, not only just the occasional spot dredging currently conducted, Hurley said. The assemblyman is also proud of he and Chinnki’s role in continuing funding for the Agricultural Experimental and 4-H Extension programs, despite Governor Brendan Byrne’s original cut-off of funds five years in a row, Hurley said Hurley has also backed a revision of the CAFRA boundaries, allowing more sensible development in CAFRA controlled areas,

he said.

A three-package program focusing on senior citizens and the disabled, transportation and juvenile justice are of prime importance to the assem-

blyman.

For senior citizens Hurley has played an active role in supporting the Pharmaceutical Assistance Act a program that gives seniors financial aid for prescription drugs; and the Lifeline bill which helps seniors with utility

bills.

In the future, he would like to see the formulation of programs that would give senior citizens reduced rates on cable

television service and lower auto registration

fees.

He would also like to see the disabled receive more and better services. T have a special feeling for them (the disabled) because they are so hard pressed now.” Hurley said. In the area of transportation, the assemblyman would like to see a comprehensive survey of all modes of transportation made and the establishment of a South Jersey Transportation Authority. Hurley said he is "supportive of a bond issue" for the extension of route 55 but he does not want to make it a campaign issue. Other public office holders have promised to push through an extension for Rte. 55 for 18 years,

In reply to his opponents (democrats Jefry Livingston and Randy Wilhelm) criticism that Hurley and Chinnici do not have a legislative office in Cape May County, Hurley said the only complaints he’s received about it are from the candidates

themselves.

"Not one single person ever told me "you ought to have an office in Cape May County," Hurley said. "I don't see that that's

even an issue."

In addition, Hurley and Chinnici have a reciprocal agreement with state senator James Cafiero allowing the use of their offices to service each others constituents, Hurley

said.

The opponent’s allegations that Hurley and Qiinnici are not a cohesive team are patently untrue,

Hurley said.

"If they’re saying we donT see eye to eye on every issue, fcey’re right

work,” Hurley said.

Ways to combat "one of the fast rising areas of crime” might include sentencing juveniles to detention facilities, making parents pay for juveniles damages incurred by juveniles, fining juveniles for damages, provide parent and juvenile joint rehabilitative counseling and require the juvenile to do work for the community in restitution, Hurley said. "I’m very excited about it,” the assemblyman said of the proposed program.

added.

The minority leader said he forsees a definite shift to a more balanced legislature after this election with Republicans gaining seats across the state. An eventual shift to a GOP majority to not too far in the future, haMRied. Is he losing any sleep , over the LivingstonWilhelm campaign? "I don't see them rnakk* any inroads. They’re image candidates.”
