JERSEY CITY FOR
GREATER HARBOR
Chamber of Commerce Confers
on Better Facilities for Port
of New York.
JERSEY CITY, April 24.—Calvin
Tomkins, formerly dock commission
er of New York, at a conference on
the development of the port of New
York, held yesterday afternoon in
§ the Down Town Club, under the au
; Apices of the Jersey City Chamber of
Commerce, took to task the Mer
chants’ Association of New \ork for
asking Mayor Mitchell to appoint a
special port commission. His criti
cism was prompted by a speech made
by F. A. Moliton, chairman of the
Merchants’ Association committee on
harbors, docks and terminals, in
which the latter advocated such a
proposal. ,,
>ir. jomKins
simply a waste of time anti money to
Work out the proposed scheme of the
development of the port by such a
i commission. He said that all the
i data necessary had already been
gathered by the New York Harbor
Line Board and the New Jersey Har
bor Commission.
Of present needs Mr. Tomkins said
that the biggest problem is the con
necting of the railroads of New Jer
sey with the steamship lines of New
York. His idea is to send some of
j the vessel to the New Jersey side and
i haul the freight trains over the Man
! hattan side through tunnels.
Discussing the suggested port eom
i mission, Mr. Moliton said that he
| knew of no better man to put at the
; head of such a project that Colonel
l Goethals.
W. L. Saunders, of the New Jer
| aey Harbor Commission, said in part:
“New Jersey is to the United States
What Liverpool, Shelfield and Man
chester are to England, and Hudson
county, In natural advantages and
opportunities. Is the greatest country
in tho Stale. We have given too
J much thought in our struggle for the
i world’s markets to tho question of
: the price of labor.
“The opening of the Panama canal
Is going to do many things, but there
I is one thing it will do. It will open
up the gateways of commerce for
.American products In Central and
South America. Just ae the prosper
ity of the English Industries created
ships, so shall vve develop this highly
, efficient means of transportation, and
if the rivers, harbors and shore lines
in and about Hudson county are put
In proper condition New Jersey will
receive Its full measure of profit and
prosperity from those resources.”
Colone' Frederick V. Abbott, Corps
of Engineers, United States Army,
urged local municipalities affected by
any proposed harbor improvements
always to lend their support. Nat
Duke, assistant freight tra c mana
ger of the Lackawanna railroad, said
that the railroads always stand ready
to assist harbor development.
Colonel Austen Colgate, president of
the Chamber of Commerce, presided.
