EIGHTH -- OCEAN CITY SENTINEU OCEAN CITY, N. J., THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 1922 ,1. _
iffiii Continued from pope Oqg — big seems to be among the present foremost needs of Ocean City. The items in said call follow: Topics For Discussion Shall the entire beach front I* condemned for park purposes* Shall the city take over and op- . erate the water and sewer plants ' ' K^r and adequate Water Supply j forFlf* purposes. Some improvements in the methods for collecting garbage, ashes, rubbish, etc, and the disposition of To the items meitioned in our. Call should be added the need for: • herd- surfaced street. It is noivj en ting about twev /-eight lli-ias- 1 and dollars per year, to maintain' our present street' with no permanent results. The truck and, automobile travel demands bar.!- j surfaced streets. Some p]an should j be worked out in the nonr future to meet this great necessity. j Tee Executive Committee grcav-i ly appreciates the co-operative! spirit existing between the city | authorities and themselves. The Oceai. City Tax-payers' League has no purpose excepting to represent as far as possible j the non-res: le it tax-payers rt Oca City, an.' to co-operate with | • the City author'.'.'es in the advnneer.«.f of the interest. Wej ahoukl be encouraged in our efforts |, for the entire population is bene- < fited. We are not unnecessarily j rushing into print, or proclaiming !, ourselves from the house tops, but , far quiet practical ways are aecom- , pKshing good resulU. 1 Our membership should be much , larger than at present. We should ] have twenty-five hundred members. ( Our dues are five dollars per an- j , num. If we had fifteen hundred , members the dues could probably , be reduced to two dollars per year. , , Increasing membership would very j , greatly Increase our effectiveness. We trust as a result of this ( meeting the Tax-payers of Ocean ( City, may more fully appreciatethe efforts and purposes of the!] Tax-payers' League, and join with ( us in trying to assist the City; authorities, to well-shape the fut- j we of our summer home. Ocean j I CKy, N. J, no longer a village or small town with its problems, but a City of good sired proportions with its possibilities. CONDEMNATION OF BEACH j FRONT t At the suggestion of Mayor ; Champion, City Solicitor Andrew utampren, uvy aoucuor n nurc»
C. Bo swell undertook to explain i • the legal phase of the proposal to i condemn the Beach Front for park i put pore, and the advantages thatji would accrue to the city if such a ' procedure were adopted. The beach front, Mr. Bo swell ex- j ■ plnlnil is owned by individuals, subject to qualified conditions, i granting the city the right ot way i for the erection of a Boardwalk. ! The term condemnation for "park" i purposes, Mr. Boswell stated was i in fact a mere legal term, which I might be substituted by the word "public" purposes. < Under present conditions, the < owners of the land have the dfcid- , I teg voice in saying where the i Boardwalk should be placed, a con- i dition of things which cannot but lead to dissension and embarrass- | mat Under present conditions more- t ovar, the owners of the land could > erect places of. amusements, and ( charge for admission into the ' i same. In fact such a procedure | had been contemplated this year, v Urn City authorities had successfully intervened, nevertheless had , ( the person contested the city's t right to prohibit him from doing ( so in a court of law, and proved ] before the court he was conducting , his place of amusement in an , orderly manner, without question ( he would have won the suit. , Mr. Boswell further volunteered j f the statement, that the city admin- ] lstration had been long considering t the advisability of taking the nec- ( easary steps, for the condemnation ) of the beach front, but had been c prevented from doing- so through t lack of funds. The time was now f opportune, and tfie~ttniI coul<l be | acquired without great cost. i In answer to a question Mr. Bos- t well replied, that condemnation v. proceedings would not materially affect the riparian rights of the I owner, for in the event of the r Boardwalk being removed ocean- ' a wards, the land, dty-wards would o revert to the owner. ii After hearing Mr. Boswell, the o Tax-payers' League went on record a approving of the proposed condem- c nation of the beach front, for pult- 1 s> lie purposes. I b The advisability or not of the ' p dty acquiring the ownership of the Water and Sewer plants, wgs left I g lot the time in abeyance. ip Mayor Champion and the City'b; Engineer stated, they were not w prepared to present s report of the Is investigation being carried on, and st the meeting agreed it would be u| unwise, to take a definite action, ' rr or Offer recommendation-, until a Bach reports were completed. g<
Mayor Champion's statements relative to the garbage situation, ! was a typical "hunt luck story." The difficulties with which the city, authorities had contended this year '' ! were fully appreciated, as alse ,e ! were their sintere efforts to relieve : ■ the situation. The discussion led to | a general opinion, that the only • | solution to the problem was thst the municipality, should directly I ^ undertake the collection and dis- ' position of garbage and trash. >*i *» PAVED STRETS AND NEW] i- 1 SCHOOL j 5. "ftie Tax-payers' League, went on if record strongly ' advocating an ! extensive program of street im-j r | provements. As the President r i. stated, the adoption of such a pro-j v | gram could no longer "be delayed. - The people of Ocean City should ; n ' consider that Ocean City, was no : - ! longer a village. We should build I J j for 65,000 and not 3,000 people. - [ Prof. James M. Stevens was ! I heard, in an eloquent appeal for | ® j a new High School and educational ' plant. As far as the new school j • I was concerned, Prof. Stevens said, j ' ojthc money was available. Bonds j' Y I could be issued to the extent of > over $800,000 without exceeding j ' ; the legal limit. Ocean City school ! ' indebtedness amounted to a mere I . ' $25,000. 1 ) The High School was paid for.i I I The. City has the ground available, ! " in a splendid location. What he, , 5 j Prof. Stevens, asked for was an! 1 1 educational plant costing between j ( ' $300,000 and $350,000, which would | ' I include an auditorium capable of ( • accommodating 1,600 people, and 1 : more or less of a community f ' center. Completely captivated by ( i Prof. Stevens' address, the meeting 1 unanimously voted lit favor of the . 1 project The Leaguers also favored - . the double tracking of the line be- j ' i tween Tuckahoe and Ocean City j ' and the laying of a short route { from Egg Harbor CKy. The fol- ^ •j persons were elected as the r ' executive committee for the year:! Thos. R. Fort, Jr, E. B. Bacon, ^ 1 C. Howard Schermerhorn, Mr. Mc- , 1 Laughiin, R. C. Hocks, L. H. Cone, 1 J.

Problems and c propositions involving great-^abor tjand great expense were discussed,1 i with the utmost confidence the Chamber coyfe carry them to aj -j successful issue. ,. Very naturally all present were , rejoicing, over the wonderful sue- j I which attended the Ocean i . Hotel, without question the 'greatest dvie and financial i ^ achievement in the history of I Ocean City. ^ I Congratulations were the order j of the evening. Mr. Sutton took' • ! occasion to thank ail who had con- j , towards the project, and Call who had devoted of their time! ■ I generously. In response to the call for re- • ports from the various committees » John E. Trout, reporting for his! ■ ' committee, stated that an ordiI was being prepared in the I ! Solicitor's office, revising the ! : : regulations appertaining to fire ! protection in accordance with the . wishes of the Chamber. Russd H. Nulty, reporting for ' !;thc Publicity Committee, spoke of 1 the Highway Light-houses the ' Chamber of Commerce .and the ! Realty Board were having placed C on the White Horse Pike. The 1 members of the committee were 1 evidently committed to the plan, regarding it as a most effective 1 j form of advertising. Mr. Nult]jj[urther reported that ' the $1,200, •which the Chamber of had originally voted to 1 -be spent, in distributing 2000 1 copies daily of the Daily Ledger to j 1 visitors, would now be de- • out of the Hotel Campaign 1 1 Thus it Bhould be done, 1 Nulty stated, and not out of i the Chamber of Commerce tress- : ury. i i j Then followed f report, given by i Jacobs, from the special com- ! i mittee appointed to consider the advisability of having a film madeil of Ocean City. The film, as stated ' ] our last issue, will take the fonft t | of a two-reel comedy, prepared by I accredited firm of film photo- : i graphers, and under the direct i | supervision of Mr. Haines, who has < ' a studio director of long ex- j i perience. i Delightful entertainment was t ! given, in ' the form of se!ecti(/is. J UJJbn the violin, and vocal solos, v by Miss Marion Doran. As far as t. can learn, this is the young t lady's first appearance on the' sUge in Ocean City. Her selections p the violin were artistically jii rendered.* Miss Dor arris evidently h mistress of technique. Her fin- 1 ii gering faultless, intonation dear, e
ts and resonant, the lights and shades n, • of musical expression' superbly re- ■ produced, her performance was of ty/a high order of merit. Although ,r Miss Doran 's ( mastery ol^r her ie voice did not equal her mastery ret of the 'violin, her vocal contribute tions were very pleasing, ly W. E. Mas sey's report for the j it Transportation Committee was an 1 y illuminating study of this most '- important department of commercial endeavor, and to Ocean City a y • source of justifiable pride and self- ! congratulation. I It became manifest as Mr? Mas- 1 n sey proceeded with his report, that | the efforts of his committee, which t ' by the way practically a committee _ I of one, the speaker, are meeting ^ . • with signal success. Upon every J railroad schedule and pamphlet is- ' j sued, tbe name of Ocean City j appears, following immediately, 1 and with equal prominence, the ' ! name of Aflantic City. 1 r i The reports issued from the var- 1 1 1 ious jrailroad offices, show that all ' I j the resorts on the coast with the ' I exception of one. had experienced v ^ j a decrease in passenger traffic this 0 jlyear. The one exception is Ocean I City. Ocean City is the only resort a * I on tlje coast showing an increase, t p| Compared with the month of s j last year. Ocean City has increased thy year 17', 4 per cat in pass- g ' enter traffic; in July lfi per cent t i AKjncreasc of several hundreds ■ | ! of conuitetor'a tickets, are reported I j this year over last. s r Mr. Massey read an extract from "I ! a menu card, which was distributed ;i over 200 cars, in which Ocean City 0 referred to as the "best governed resort on the coast." », The Shore Fast Line reports an jr . increase sf 15 per cent over last n jear. Referring to the shorter - route from Egg Harbor City or b Hammonton, Mr. Massey volun1 red the information that the of- n | of the Pennsylvania Rail- w ' road Company, were favorably con- a sidering the project, and that aur- ,|j ' veys were being made to ascertain c, the approximate cost of its c| ' establishment. The Hotel Campaign was a tri- jj umph; notwithstanding it does not p 1 up to Presidat E. M. M 'Sutton's ambitions. Mr. Sutton a announced that the campaign was ^ I ] still in progress, because he felt | confident the city, could raise the — | j entire amount necessary for the h, ! erection of the Hotel, without c a bonded indebtedness. At the rf president's call, a large number I w present rose to their feet, pledging tc ' their support and co-operation to m 1 that ad. ni
° Presidat Sutton in trod need, and d j invited discussion upon another r . matter of supreme importance to 1, ' the future growth, ad expansion * of the dty. He tleaired that the. ■! Chamber of Commerce should go on record, recommading the city * administration to initiate a pro1 gram of Street Improvonents, upn ' on a ambitious scale. Mr. Sutton e advocated pa veil streets through-'ut >1 the dty, ad carried the agreef mat of every person present, that such were urgently needed. Mr. r : Sutton favored the giving out of k contracts as soon as possible, so as to avoid a repetition of what? d | occurred this year, with the season e 'opening and the main U-.orough- { fare all torn up. In comparison with other cities, 6 ' he stated, Oee-.n City o ;npared " very very unlavorablj. Vatnur.
