THE FREEING OF THE TOLL BRIDGE At Inst the toll bridge, between Ocean City and Semen Point popularly known as the Inter-County Bridge, is free. The last toll collected from i of this bridge went into the coffen of the Automobile Bridge Comi pany m 1 Beadsy morning of this week. Ocean City is to be congratulated upon its sncceosfnl fight to free rids i, the last toll bridge in the State to be so freed. And Ocean City’s s in Wi respect is also the success of Cape May County, for just an | surely as the rides rise and fall, so surely will every section of the County “fit by the removal of rids barrier to free access from Atlantic City and

l Sew York.

Twelve years ago Ocean City felt the need of an automobile connection k Ailantic City. Up until then it was necessary for Ocean City autots to travel forty miles in a round-about way to get to Atlantic City or on e direct Mew York roods. Dp onto then the County had generally -been [ Ajpcuaring the plausibility of a bridge across from Beesky’s Point to Semen i, and Ocean City had punned a policy of “watchful waiting.” Then : became apparent that the Beesley’t Point project could not be i, and after a battle of several weds in the Sew Jersey Legislature, son City was granted permission to build its bridge as a private enter■e, and charge toR Local capital subscribed $290,000 to bnfld the bridge, and every intor of a angle dollar in the enterprise figuratively “timed his money ^ good-bye” for even the most optimistic did not believe the bridge would e than its actual running expenses and upkeep, if it did rim The need for the bridge was so great, however, that right from the beginaing rim project was a paying investment, and last year thooe brave sonls mho backed their faith in Ocean City with their good money, realised a dividend of thirty-five per cent on their investment as a direct return. The indirect returns were, in all probability, even greater, for Ocean City's accessibility by means of this bridge, has been one of the outstanding Kaaons for its almost phenominal development Despite the lag dividend returns, the stockholders wanted to sell the to the State so that it oould be free to travel putting their interest it of their resort above any financial gain. The first chapter in the life of the In ter-County bridge is now doted. "*T>e second chapter was opened on Tuesday, and who can foretell what, in rim next dssen yean, this free bridge will mean to Ocean City and to Cape

I purpose shortly to ml ment to the Constitution. I would amend the Conai. tutioo oo as to provide: (1) That no inferior fedad judge shall sot aside a law of ooogrma on the that it is unconstitutional; (9) that U the Sapru» court assumes to decide any law of ccngtms nner tutionaL or, by interpretation, undertakes to , _ a public policy at variance with the statutory dectir* tiot of congress—which alone under our system B authorised to determine the public policies of goraj ment—the ccngress may by ro-enactiog rite Uw ai lify the action of the court.

Today the actual ruler of the American people is the Supreme coot of the United States. The law is what they say it it, and not what tie people, through congress, enacts. Aye, even the Constitution of the United States is not what its plain terms declare but what these nine men aastrue it to be. In fact, five of tneee nine men are actually the supreme rulers, by a bare majority the court has repeatedly overridden the rfll of tie people as declared by their representatives in eongresa, and hao eonrtrwl the Constitution to mean whatever suited their peculiar economic md political views.

Youth, With Its Dual Nature, Has About ; Even Fight on Its Hands

By DR. A. E. STEARNS, Principal of Phffliya Nobody can understand boys or deal with boys who does not, firet d all, appreciate the dual nature of tbe human being, and particular] v as it is intensified and exemplified in youth, because youth starts with just about an even fight on its hands, and has that dual nature in *ts tntoneret and most rigorous form. On the one side there is the weaker, the baser, tht animal, if yen will, pulling him in the directions in which he knows, on his better side, he ought not to go, thrusting tempatton in his wav, railing him off the beaten track. And then, on the other side, there are thpu. fine ideals, never finer than in the days of youth, those beliefs and convictions it the things thu are fine and true and marly and pure, the spiritual side of his nature, th« higher man, the manhood that is in him, culling him away from the* things, and challenging him to play the game and to play the game fur and true. If you want rugged manhood in the next generation. It is there just waiting to be called into control and action. If you want man of idea!*, men who will uphold our laws, men who will stand for the toing. thai ait pure and dear and fine in home and family and civic life, men who aoontinue to lead this nation and not undermine its strength by their on veskneMM, then do what you can to make these .ewulGinm to which youtk will perfectly and naturally and wholesomely respond.
