A BRIDGE OF SHIPS Entertaining what they conslde: one of the most feasible plans for the construction of a bridge between! Longport and Ocean City, prominent engineers of the vicinity affected by such a constructional program, have declared themselves convinced that the scheme of William McLaughlin, of Atlantic City, developer of the Mc-Laughlin-Conover tract at Ocean City, will be worth while. McLaughlin, in his stated plana, proposes to purchase a number of wooden ships, fill them with concrete and sink them across the channel. With these as piers, the question of constructing a bridge or viaduct will be simplified and a program might be pushed to coudusion.
