A SEW EOAS BADLY HEEDED There are many people in Cape May County who hold Oat the new iwd from Buriciffa. on the Main Seashore Hoad, into Horth Wildwood by way of Grassy Sounds, is an unwarranted expenditure on the part of the Oape May County Board of Chosen Freeholders, and there has been ooaaderaole criticism by the public of the county anions for their pashinf through of this project at this time. The TIMES was inclined to acne that this was not the proper time to put through nay new construction, with the county heavily bonded and the continued high costs of rood and bridge eoastrnctioa. But the need of another entrance to Wildwood is erident now to anyone who has had occariou to use the one auto road into Oat reamt this ■smmer. With the bridge decking wearing out, new planks were needed and to install these plonks it has been necessary to hold ap traffic anywhere from due to ten minutes at a time to get in a new plank, and in this short space of time hundreds of oars an Baud up waiting to get acrem. If the bridge vroald have to he dooed aC far aay Wildwood weald he entirely belated to far as auto And fully eighty per cent of present day travel to and from the resorts is by sate. So it mot he patent to aay fair minded i hath past and praeat wen acting wisely and far sjgbtedly in the new nod wbkb win be eompietsd en another ssaosa is afra as.

5* COALS FROM HEWCASTLE tTkmirmm* Lasker, of the United States Shipping Board, reports tint bis ships an being chartered every day for the coal trade between the United States and Europe. He says the ships now in operation can bring •00.000 tons a month Hern Fagtaad and Wales, and that enough idle ten

nage t

tons o month.

This is one of the resources avaflahle to the people if the oool prododng 'ones in the United States persist in their refusal to work the mines. Both the miners and the operators should disabuse their minds that they

have aay corner on the fuel supply.

The supply from non-union mines, the importations, and the amount that can be produced under Federal authority will be sufficiemt to supply the urgent needs of industries and householders, regardless of whst the

a the present strike may do.

$13.15 FOB IHSUBAHCE Senator Walsh, of Massachusetts, made a statement recently which has been played up by the free trade press although it has not the slightest obiwb to substantiate it He said that the pending tariff bill, if it becomes a law would “tax every human being in America $13.15." That is pure, unadulterated bunk, of course, but assuming for the sake «f argument that it is true, isn't $13.15 tittle enough to pay to insure the yob of every worker in a factory and s profitable market for every fanner in the fields, and the decent tiring of all who depend upon what they earn, directly or indirectly ? Well tell the world it is.

IH READING the editorial in the Wildwood Sun-Tribune of lait Thursday, in which some things not altogether complimentary to the TIMES are said, we cannot help but wonder whether the statements con tuned therein are on « par. for truthfulness, with the statements made by the editor of the Cape May newspaper pabtisbed by the Wildwood concern, to a county advertiser in soliciting business. The letter state* that the “Cape May Hew* is the leading newspaper in Cape May County with 5000 circulation.'' The Hews is five weeks old! Of course the extra cipher MAY hare been added by a slip of the typewriter!

Task for Women Voters: To Restore Public Interest in Dominant Markets By VICTOR MURDOCH. Federal T*u*s CdmoMem The tendency of many of our greater market* fa to concentration, and the crootiou at point* w)^ “the market is made" for the whole nation. Soon of these dominant mark eta, aa in the case of the larg* t.nninai markets for country produce, mu wasiefnilj inadequate in area and fadlttim.

I believe that America will eventually resume dam aeporrixioa of dominant markets. This doe* not mean, of coarse, government prhe fixing or government buying and selling of wane or government acqui. otion of all markets.
