Plans to Condemn Land for Public Resort and Recreje ation Purposes. Tlo» City Commissioners, at tbelr weekly meeting, by passing resoln- . lions, started the Initiatory proceedI ings to condemn for public resort and recreation purposes all the land between Fiflh and Sixth street* and front (he ordinary high water line on • Beach Thoroughfare where tbe ordl- | narv high water line was before K wa* filled, to the riparian commissioners' exterior" line on the beach front, ex1 ceptfng ihe streets, and also excepting ] ;i piece of ground between Wealey " j and Asbury avenues, on which stands I and is being used the auditorium for '] camp meeting and religious purpose* and a church building known a* lb* ' ! Young People's Temple. | : The land covered by the city"* proceeding* ha* been In the courts tors number of year* on the ground that it '! should remain open for camp meeting ■ purpose*. This right has been an ln1 erclsed. any authority or jurisdiction over It. All the litigation* have been ' oy Individual* and not by the city. ' The land ha* laid In an unimproved 1 state and ha* not been used for camp meellijg purposes. The land extend* from Wesley avenue out to-the Atlantic Ocean and the ' land under tbe ocean to the ripetrian 1 commissioners' exterior line, and the other portion of the land extends from .Asbury -stettue beyond Bay arenas to ' Where the ordinary high water was ' the land under the water was The land Is one on which mosquitoes and frogs breed, and ha* been for years a source of annoyance and discomfort to residents of that section ■ who have had occasion to pass - through it. It Is near the central ' part of the city and haa long beea an Tbe city has never -bad authority to , do ahything with the land, and while, several years ago. ll was taxed by tba city and assessed for street Improve-im-nts-tnade through it, the i«sea« ' ments were never paid. Became of 1 the conditions, the city did not receive - any revenue trom a taxation stand- ' point and not any benefit or right In ' the Und from a .public standpoint in • order to benefit the city. 1 ft U understood that not aU the par- ' sons who own property in Ocean City have a right to have this land fain in UtU unsightly condition for camp meeting purpose*, as Information has r' been received that only, a few have ■ such a right. The result appears to ■ be that the taxpayers generally haya I been* suffering a loss In this way. I Money from taxation has not keen ■ realised from the property and yet tba - f public have no benefit or right In It. It I* claimed, however, that this land could legally be used by the own are of it In the erecting of small honoaq ' for camp meeting purpooaa. i The condition of the ground for - year* has materiouy interfered with I that section of the city ana has sarvi ed to divide the resort into two parts. > The Ocean City Association, n few I year* ago.- sold a portion at the land from Atlantic avenne to tho Atlantic Ocean, and this sale was the subject of a salt In- the courts of this State. A decision was rendered aa to thin piece of land In the same parpert as to It being used tor camp muling ' It is rumored, 'bat not from an aathorltatlve source, that this land, or n portion, of It, after It la acqaired by the city, could be used for any public . building, and incidentally for building* for the Ocean City State Rummer School, a State college or similar -Itsstltotion. _ AUXILIARY MEETS HaikaSIsi Wants Baiataaaala There waa an unusually largo al- . tendance of maarttars at the Mat ha , .
