MILLIONS FOR GOOD ROADS < BILL INTRODUCED BY SENATOR CHARLES M. EG AN TO BUILD , GOOD ROADS IN NEW JERSEY. f I I Sevan million dollars in bonds, for , good roads in New Jersey, are provided ^ for in a measure which was introduced j by Senator Claries JL Egan, of Hud- j son, Monday. The remarkable feature , of the bill is that the proposed good c * roads are not to cost the taxpayers a ""penny. Both principal and interest of < this immense bond issue are to be met t with moneys from the motor vehicle li- , cense fees, registration fees, fines and t penalties. t Provision is made in the bill for aicf- t erendum at a general election. If en- > acted and passed upon by the voters it *] will enable the State Highway -Com- L mission to plan and lay out routes for i BUte Highways, and along the follow- <] ing routes: from 'Elizabeth to Tren- } ton, by way of Rah way, Metuchen, New f Brunswick and Princeton; from Trenton to Camden by way of Bordentown j. and Burlington; from Camden to Abse- p con, by way of Berlin and Hammon- R town; from a point on the first -men- u tioned route in or near Rahway to Ab- t secoa, by way of Pertli Ambov, Mat- t awan, Freehold, Lakewood, Toms River, v Tuckcrton and New Gretna. j p The fifth route is from Newark to the j. bridge crossing the Delaware River, ji • about two miles above Delaware, by t way of Morristown, Chester. Hacketts- a town, Butteville and Delaware. There v SLTe three others, one from Camden to t Bridge ton, -by way of Woodbury and b Mullica Hill; from Trenton to Asbury c Park, by way of White Horse, Imlays- o town. Freehold, Jerscyville and Hamil- <■, tHTfrnlm Montclair to Sussex, by way . o of Slngajc, Wayne, Pompton Plains. j n Butler, NNr Foundland. Stockholm and j n Franklin _ F utnacc. — "" • t This new/ measure is ^snjjplement to I the act or 1012, covering state roadways 1 <•. and instead of mere repair work on tl e C nftads included in the areas mentioned, g proposes construction of new roads ii where necessary for more direct _ routes. , ti reronstruetion of certain of the old . 1 roads and improvements to still others. ' ti All costs of construction, reeonstrpe- d tion. widening and improving and of ar- . p quiring -any rights- and easements foj ! Ii the highways provided arc to be paid ti for out of the proceeds of the seven t: million dollar, bond issue. These will j V be known as State Highway Bonds, and « are to be either registered or coupon I u bonds bearing interest at \ rate not ex- si eeeding four per cent. They are only is to be sold from time to time as thejt] money is required on the highway work, j n If-'"' The question of the bond issue has |tl been taken up with leading bankers in ri this state, and they have approved of in k - the plan. Under the present motor vehi- [ A j." . cle laws, the moneys collected from Ii- jdi
cense fees, penalties. Etc.. is devoted to ■ i , . roads, but is used pmcipalkr for repair ! '» work. No resnlts are apparent to the . : person who has occasion to travel ■ throughout a larger part of the state, j . Senator Egan's measure provides for i highways payed with granite, asphalt j i or wood blocks, brick, concrete, bitnm- I . inous concrete, asphalt, or other pave- i ment having a hard surface and of a | durable character. Now the principal i highways throughout the state are of lsand, gravel or macadam at {he best. The purpose of tlie new bill is to Save j ( good and permanent roads throughout - < the state, and yet not to bnrden the i , taxpayers with the cost of construct- I tion. The money provided for has to ' , go on roads anyway, and the only I., ' change is that it will be used for eon- I structive, reconstructive and improve- . ment work instead of mere makeshift I repairs. Moreover, with the state tak- ! r * ing over the highways included in the i . bill, the counties wherein they lie- will ever be relieved of the cost of maintenabce. Thus another burden . is taken 1 I . from the taxpayers.

] George E. Blakeslre, Hudson Couaty, is one who cooeelved the main ideas .embodied in the proposed legislation. I "I have had the plan in mind for I some time,'' he said, "and i know road < conditions throughout New Jersey. I ' been over all of the proposed routes with engineers and the best con- < i tractor* of the sta'e. Tic question 1 the bond issue 1 have submitted to | ' bankers, and tbev have |iassed favor- I ably upon it. In my opinion it is the i ■ . one way to secure good roads without I I putting the load upon- the people." I j Clinton E. Fisk, attorn Cy^at jaw,. of Jersey City, put the bill into shape. Senator Charles M. Egan will introduce it in the upper bouse. I CONGRESSMAN BACHARACH URGES CHANGE IN TARIFF LAW For the past two days conferences • haev been held at the office of Con- ' gre&sman Bacharach at Washington, for the purpose of obtaining a . modification " ' of the Tariff Law so a* to impose a 45% ad vakirum tariff rate on chem- ! ical glassware which is now imported ' tfiis country duty free, for use in ' educational institutions, colleges, lab- 1 oratories, etc. lip until a few years ago very little of this charakter of glassware was manufactured in this country for the reason that there seemed to be a delusion < among the users of it in this country 1 that American manufacturers could not out an article that would compete ' with the imported goods in quality, etc. This idea has been completely repudiated, and K has been found that American made goods are of as high a standard, if not higher, than those made in _ Europe, principally in the countries of ( Austria and Bohemia. With the advent of the European war"' ^ it became practically impossible to .import any of these wares, and as a result American institutions and jobbers using and handling these goods began look around for sources of supply in country. American manufacturers quick to See the possibilities that I presented themselves in this field of the glass industry, by reason of tlie inabilto import from Europe, and within " .'last two years there has been j great amount of activity in "the de- j velopment of the chemical, glass indusEnormous amounts of capital has ) been put in the erection of new plants, j etc.. to meet the demand for this line of goods, and there has been a ready correspondence with the manufacturers | the part of labor in an effort to en- ' I able the manufacturer to produce these 1 j articles" in the greatest quantities so n - ' I The - manufacturers feel that some ; j their enterprise and their promptness to | i grasp the "Made in America" idea, and 1 order to protect both the mpnufac- ! and the mechanics, t hc^ /desire j that Congress shall amend the' present j tariff law on these goods and impose a j of 45%. so that when the Euro- ; ipean war is over those countries which ! j had a monopoly ,_on this trade may not be permitted to send in ! I their- wares without a tax. i | About 75% of all the chemieal glass- ! in Cumberland County, New Jer- i i and for that reason Mr. Bacharach ' | is greatly interested in the efforts of j [the manufacturers. The conference was ; [attended by Messrs. Kimbel and Dura ml [ [the principal members of the Kibel. Do- ; rand Glass Company of Vinelntid, N. J.. [ and Mr. T. .1.
