familiar with the development at the start., they have fcrpt their word and any mistake* theymay have made have undoubtedly been unintm-;
tional.
The fill has been completed. The Sea We Crtyj Building and Loan Association is sufficiently told j on the Gardens to grant mortgages to a contractor to erect six houses thereon. Hie company has spent thousands of dollars advertising the vrlopment. And with the clearing of the charge, i against them the company plan to activdj^pwsh j the development, which should become Isle City's greatest a-sets. In a time' when many drirlnpment companies are having their ups and dow ns rise Prudential has pasaed through a trying ordeal and emerged unscathed. May their trouble, be over and may the* make of Sea Isle Gardens a development of which not only Sea Isle City, but »h( entire county, may
(well be proud.
That the Commissioners of Sea Isle City s finrly convinced there is an urgent need for community building in this resort was brought out in an interview by this paper with Mayor Maurice M. Sofroney, published in last week's issue. The Commissioners have not merely taken the matter out in thinking, but haw plans for the erection of such a hall along the boardwalk, facing the

The law provides that such a building be financed over a period of forty years, which, as the Mayor points out, would not seriously effect the present tax rate. The Commi sioners realize the need of a community building. They approve the erec'ion of one, but will be guided largely by the sentiment of the taxpayers. Every Sea Isle City taxpayer should repress his or her opinion of the project to the Co<nmi«ionm verbally or written. There i» nothing Sea Isle needs more than a community hall. There many uses for it during the months that intervene between seasons. It would prove invaluable in the summer months. The sooner it is erected the better.
Swift Justice Will Decrease Crime Jrr«-> justice may function dowdy on many occasion*. but it certainly worked swiftly in the of Ci-orge Costello, the scvrotren-ycar-o!d youth who. one night several weeks ago, walked into the office of Ralph R. Buvinger. in Ocean City, ano departed with Mr. Buvinger's wallet, containing
six dollars.
Costello, said to be a product of the Philadelphia tenderloin, wa* arrested Monday. February 27. near the Oty Hall. Ocean City. Nine days later, on Wednesday. March 7. Judge Eldredge sentenced tne youth to twelve years in State prison. It was an expensive crime for Costello, as be must serve two years for every dollar stolen. If 'anything it to decrease erttnr in this country it will be justice that i- swift and sure. When criminally inclined individuals know there is little chance to escape the penalty for their offenses against society and less chance for pardon once they are sentenced they will at le-t think twice before they act.
Fishing Bill
Will Get Action
The propose-1 bill to impose a $1.15 license fee on all who fish in salt waters for pleasure or profit is causing considerable furore, particularly in
this section of the state.

We should be broadminded and tolerant as posHdble. but not enough to permit the other fellow, often narrowminded and InuAer,himself, to sway us as a reed in the grind

We nude ir dear we were opposed to it if jno*f of the license money would be used to collect the fee*. We might further that if it will cju*. people to stay sway from
