THE STATE FERRY I MAY JfET COME i- new jersey state commis-i r sioners have completed d survey and political parties are pledged to see it thgu. ^ The leople of Delaware have been r. assured that the -ferry connecting le Delaware roads with New Jersey -t roads crossing Delaware bay from t Lewes to Cape May will Incompleted by commissioners from the State of e New Jersey, who jjave made a survey of the proposed route.

Resort, hotel owners " and the various chambers of commerce in south Jersey are behind the " movement, and both Democrats and Republicans are pledged to tlte building of the line. This would give a n j direct automobile route from Balti- ■ more, Washington ahd points west j over Maryland ferries to Claibourne' ® ! and tlien to Georgetown and Lewes j and across Cape May, saving maav ' j hundreds of miles for southern tour lists .to.
