The Sea Girt meeting will be attended by the Freeholders, county ehgeucers and Senators from the couotlow to be affected by the Ocean HotU evard and a map showing tbe boat means for utilising existing roads, cut offs and connections will be ready for Utelf inspection. It ia quite possible that a plan wiH be evolved at this July meeting that will enable the counties to begin wor XL once, at least on the connecting lines, and that the cost will be so distributed that It will not be burdensome. The State should contribute o the cost, though K would be unvlsv for those most Interested to try o unload tbe whole cost on the State That would defeat the project and t ia too good an Idea to have It mis arry through blundering.

Fort ha» be^n an entnuslas Uc advocate of the proposed boulevan and although he failed in securing the passage of a bill providing foi State aid Hu- seutimedt which ba* since been aroused in the seaboari counties ' makes ' tbe success of lb enterprise probable, tbe boulevard wb be constructed at the expense of tb> separate counties, the plana and son tracts all being subject to tbe appro val and under tbe general supervlaioi of the State Highway Commission

The Ocean Boulevard v From Jersey City Journal. The proposition to construct a broac boulevard, extending from Atlanta Highlands to Cape May. is one that deserves careful and favorable con • ideration. It would add immensely U (hr popularity 'of New Jersey short resorts and would attract ow ners ot automobiles from every section of Iht country. Nothing in the way of * drive would equal It. If the road eouid be covered with a compound of brok en stone and asphelt to prevent dost It would be a pleasure to ride ovei It and wltb a broad roadway it woulc be safe for all kinfis of vehicles, ji would bw but a few yelll when rt would be lined at least on one sidt its entire length with bulldingsWoi business and sumsfief residences. Much of tbe existing road could bt utilised and there would not be man; miles of connecting road and short' cut* to build. In many places the land owners would no doubt be srllling tc convey title to tbe right of way wltb om charging for the land, because oi tbe benefit tbe road would be to thi remainder of tbe property, and very little off the new right of wav -would

be expensive.

Five countries would be benefltteC directly by such s boulevard and of them have little need of help froo outside. Monmouth and Atlantic, fact Atlantic baa already decided build one section of the road Orel seven miles In length, from Absent to Somers Point. Much of the exist Ing rosd way could be wldeded at little cost. In fact there Is so much of the road In existence that rough cstlra at-a of the coat of the whole 120 mile* place the sum at about 1300.000. This would be a bagatelle for a populous city or section, but Ocean and Cape May. which have tbe bulk of the dls tance to be covered, have sparse pop ulallons and while both would benefit by the boulevard they would not gain so much in tbe near future ae the would, for the h are mainly located In the other i An Important moMlug will be at tbe Governor's headquarters at Bet OUt. on July l, to
