PHILADELPHIA - When the U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers sent out a public notice recently on a proposed dredging project in Delaware Bay, i( was an example of the right church but wrong pew. The notice (NAPftP-R-81-0279-3 to be official) iftformed the public that the Great Lake Dredge & Dock Co. of Union, had applied for a permit to dredgean area of the bay between Litton and Cross Ledge ranges, marine traffic lanes in the upper reaches of the bay where it narrows to form the mouth of the Delaware River. PROBLEM IS the map accompanying the public notice, while showing the correct longitude and latitude for the site designated on the map, was incorrect by a number of miles and several minutes (fractions of a degree on a chart). Among'responses the Army Engineers here received were those from the Cape May County Planning Board and the Cape May County Herald and Lower Township Lantern! Telephone calls to the Corps headquarters in the Philadelphia Customs Hpuse confirmed that the Liston and Cross Ledge ranges were indeed the intended site. Instead of the 39 N, 75.20 W coordinates as shown on the notice map, the latitude and longitude should have been

further north and west.

The intended'project involved dredging upwards of 25 /nillion cubic yards of sand,

silt and shell from.the Liston/Cross Ledge borrow site to provide batkfill material for

public tvorks projects.

Assembly Minority Leader James Rr Hurley has sent a telegrarrt to New Jersey Dept, of -Labor and Industry Commissioner John Horn urging him to "use the power and expertise” of fa office to help^South Jersey’s glass and clothing industries hire enough employees to keep up

production.

"In my travels around Cumberland County J have been told again and again by manufacturers, particularly in the glass and clothing industries, how difficult it is to find enough

employees," declred Hurley. "It seems hard to believe with so many people in our area out of

woilc, but there it is." THE STATE DEPT. of.

Labor Statisctics . has reported * the unemployment rate in Cum-’ berland County in June at over 13 pappent, the seventh highest unemploymeht rate in the

Matalucci Leads Kean Campaign

COURT HOUSE -Phil Matalucci, County Treasurer for nine years, has been appointed county chairman of the Kean for Governor campaign. “Tom Kean has the experience as a legislator, and knows this state, and will make a good governor,’' "JIM FLORIO, BY voting against Ronald Reagan’s tax cut, which will save the

taxpayers of this state over 2 billion dollars in two years, has proven that he is out of st4p with the people of New Jersey," commented Matalucci. "Tom Kean has an economic program m which will provide jobs and growth and do for New Jersey what Ronald Reagan is doing for the nation.” "Funds for campaign activities will come from

grass-roots fund-raisers,” said Matalucci. On the agenda are a Sept. 13 picnic anticipating 10,000 people, a Sept. 28 "Beef and Beer Bust” planned for "several . thousand” people, and an Oct. 24 Fall Dinner for 1,200 people.

"There ought to be a solution to this, but ap parently local efforts at finding one have.failed.”

Spraying Has Veil Backing

RIO GRANDE - Michael Voll, Democratic candidate,, for Middle Twp. Committee, has announced his support for a comprehensive Gypsy Moth Spraying program next spring. Citing the township's failure to spray this past year, Voll said that decision cost Middle Township 9,000 square acres in defoliation.

"It is important that any further damage to our woodlands be avoided," Voll said. "Healthy forests are a blessing in that they provide recreation to our residents, a natual filter for our air and water supplies, providing food fend shelter for wildlife, reducing noise pollution up to 65 percent, and reducing soil erosion."

Voll said he would rather have a $5 increase in taxes than have township residents put $30 (for a private contractor to spray) o<it of their pockets in this time of tight monty. Rte. 9 Paving
