DIRTY, slovenly and unrulywas this daughter. Her father justcaught her as she was sneakingout of the house. He said,"Where're you going?"

The old man collaredhw ripped off her filthy clothesand forced her into the bath tub.He scrubbed her with a wirebrush and when he had hercleaned up told her fat get outand go with her boy friend. Themother, upset, aricad him why hedid this. He said, "Her boyfriend stinks and she smeltedworse. Now that she is a bitcleaner he might keep andtolerate her." This reason mightmake sense but she ran with thesmell crowd which knew noscent.

"ON COMMUNISM1Since 1917. J. Edgar Hoover has devoted his life to the service of his
country. In 1924, he became director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.In his long career,one of his principal goals as a federal investigator and lawenforcement officer has been alerting the American people to the menace ofcommunism. His tenure as head of the FBI has no parallel. For more thanfour decades, the agency has grown in stature and has held the non-partisanrespect of Presidents and legislators. Under Mr. Hoover, the FBI hasscrupulously avoided the role of a national police force. For these reasons,among others, J. Edgar Hoover's book, entitled "On Communism" publishedby Random House, Inc., is must reading.
"On Communism*' is a compilation of quotation- from Mr. Hoover'swritings and speeches dealing* with communism during its existence in theU.S. Preceding the compilation is an introductory essay in which the FBIDirector discusses briefly the historical background of the communist partyin the U.S. but concentrates chiefly on the communist party U.S.A. of the60's. In this essay the reader will learn how the communist party infiltratesand subtly guides the new left, antiwar demonstrations and campus note.
In calling on every citizen to be alert to the communist danger, Mr.Hoover concludes his book with the words,"We have a great heritage offreedom to protect. The times call for courage, resolution and integrity, notcleverness, expediency or love of soft living. No man has a right to a 'timeout,' 'a leave of absence1 - - all must be on the front lines."
NO SUBSTITUTE FOR NEWSPAPERSRumors persist of financial difficulties facing many publications. When
such respected institutions as the late Saturday Evening Post find itimpossible to make both ends meet, people cannot be blamed for wonderingif the written word is to become a thing of the past.
One authority gives an encouraging answer to the contrary so far asnewspapers are concerned. The dean of the school of journalism of a largeuniversity observed that, "Only the newspaper, of all the news media today,can fully live up to the challenge of providing the people with the news theyare searching for . . . Nobody can fight City Hall - if City Hull has to befought - like a crusading city editor. Nobody knows where the body isburied like a good reporter. Nobody can interpret the news in meaningfulfashion like a good editorial writer. Nobody can be closer to understandingthe impact of the news on the people of the community than a workingpublisher who is part of the life of that community.
The archives of the local newspaper constitute the only printed record ofcommunity life. Learning to read is a useful achievement - and win remainso.
ANYTHING BUT!Representative H.R. Gross of Iowa who is a watchdog of the House,
reports that 12 enterprising young persons in Montgomery County, Md.,have figured out a way to beat the system. Each of the dozen, six male andsix female, draws $55 a week in unemployment compensation which theypool in a common fund. In a four-week month, their take is a cool $2,600.They rent a six-bedroom house complete with swimming pool and sauna,buy their food and have enough left for other luxuries. They pay no taxes ontheir benefits and on an individual basis, each probably qualifies for foodstamps and medicaid benefits as well. Whatever else may be said in criticismof young people these days, no one can accuse them of being dumb.

j K ^ I U * l f l l w GRAZIOSO
When the Eagle piloted byNeil Armstrong and Buss Aldrintouched down on the Moon, theexploration of space began inearnest. It proved that men cango to other planets, the moonsof our solar system and theasteroids, comets and theasteroid belt between Mars andJupiter.
The next decade will be oneof the most exciting in our entirehistory. To me it seems ironicthat at the time we aie exploringother worlds, the troubles of ourown world will be straightenedout. I firmly believe that manyof man's iUs will be removedwithin the next ten years, thenwill come an age of knowledgewe can't imagine at this time.
The next decade will beginwith the exploration of theMoon. There are nine lunartandings scheduled under thepresent Apollo program lastingto 1972. By that time Marinervehicles will orbit Mars and otherMariner vehicles will flybyVenue. Meanwhile, The SovietUnion will also have madelandings on the Moon; othercountries - maybe the CommonMarket nations - will bedeveloping their own moonedspace program.
In 1973 Venus and Mercurywill be in position makingpossible a flyby of both planetswith one mission. On thismission, especially with morebooster power and advancedequipment, it will be possible tolaunch the Venus-Mercurymission from Cape Kennedy tothe vicinity of Venus. When thepayload reaches that planet aprobe could be dropped off toland on the surface whileanother probe could be left inorbit around Venus. Then themain spacecraft, using thevelocity of its orbit around theplanet, could swing off toMercury.
Data from this combinationmission of flyby, orbit andatmospheric probes should giveus a base in 1973 from whichdetailed evaluations could bemade to determine the coursefor future Y e n u s explorationsand serve to modify the vehiclesthat will do the overallexploration of the planets. Untilsuch missions are undertaken, iti* difficult to design anintelligent follow-on effort.
Also probable in 1973 will bea landing on Man as we go intothe Viking program designatedto send vehicles to the martiansurface. Data from the Vikingprogram will enable us to planthe type of landing vehicleneeded for future mannedlandings, the type of equipmentfor experiments on the surfaceand a good idea of what themartian surface is like. Althoughthe earliest dates mentioned forman on Mars is in the early1 9 8 0 ' s , accelerat ion ofknowledge, breakthroughs,publ ic support and theresolwment of most of our ownproblems could bring a landingon Mars by men in the nextdecade, the 1970's.
By the middle 1970's spaceprobes may be making their wayto Jupiter and Saturn, to theasteroid belt. Then in 1977 and1978 will come the opportunity
Earth) and its orbital velocityabout the Sun provide a meansof accelerating a spacecraftdirected to its vicinity into anorbit that swings close to Saturn,Uranus, and Neptune. Thisopportunity is afforded onlyonce about every 175 yearswhen these planets alignthemselves favorably. Plans forsuch a mission - or missions - arebeing developed. The vehiclesWill need nuclear power sourcesto provide the communicationslink, the thermal control, andthe power necessary to allow aspacecraft to operate in theouter reaches of the solar systemfor a period of up to eight years.
Other probes of the 1970'smay be the f irst-handobservations of comets. Theseobjects traverse from the farreaches of our solar system tothe vicinity of the Sun and maycarry with them interestinginformation from outer regions.Such information may beobta ined >nty by closeobservation from a spacecraft.The comet Encke offers the nextfavorable opportunity in 1974,and in 1976 the comet D'arrestapproaches within our reach.The most famous comet,Halley's, will retirn to Earth'svicinity in 1986 and we will bemaking close studies of thatcomet by that time.
The two moons of Mars willbe studied in the early 1970'swith our orbiting missions butthe moons of Jupiter may beanother problem. Ganymede,one of Jupiter's larger moons,has some sort of atmosphere andis certainly an interesting placeto visit. Most space peoplebelieve that future closehandobservations of Jupiter will bemade from its moons. There areother moons around Saturn,Uranus and Neptune that shouldoffer interesting subjects forexploration.
Pluto, while interestingbecause it is a planet and is ouroutermost body of the solarsystem, is so far away it may beimpossible to reach until the1980's or beyond.
While all this exploration ofthe solar system is going onduring the 1970's many flightswill be made to the Moon. Atthe beginning a few scientistswill be landed to learn moreabout its origin. The stays on thelunar surface will get longer andlonger. Eventually a permanentbase will be established, perhapsanother one by the SovietUnion, and the Moon will beforever populated by peoplefrom Earth.
The 1970's will be excitingyears and, more important,enlightening yean. Who knows,people of the twenty firstcentury may look back at the1960's and 1970's as the "goodold days" when life was anadventure and really worthliving.

TAX PICTURE PORTENDS DARK DAYS AHEADIt appears that the powers that be have finally realized that Hoboken isn't an island and has the same
major problems with drug addiction that the rest of the Metropolitan area has admitted to for years. Atlast, one positive step has been taken which may help authorities effectively combat this vile and filthybusiness.
The Hoboken police department has put on a leaflet which describes the various drugs most oftenused, the affects such drugs have on the users when they are in their systems, pictures of the various pillsand narcotics frequently used, and what we can do to help combat the problem.
Its overall message is a simple one and should be taken to heart by every mother and father in thecity: there will be no effective program against drug addiction until the community as a wholeacknowledges there is a problem and commits itself to eliminating it.
Perhaps this, more than anything else, explainswhy Hoboken has a problem in the first place.Too few gave a damn and were willing to dosomething about it. There just weren't enoughresidents who cared because they weren'tdirectly affected by drug addiction. Those whowere affected cared only after their sons anddaughters became users. Now, many parentshave finally realized that they don't reallyknow whether their kids are on the stuff andthat they wouldn't know because they don'tknow enough about it.
While the Hoboken Police, Director Wilson,Chief Sheehy, Mayor DePascale and all thebusinessmen who donated to have the leafletprinted up should be complimented, we mustask: What now?
The demands upon the police departmentfor copies have been great. Unfortunately, therejust isn't enough copies to go around. But thedemand shows interest on the part of thepublic, an interest which shouldn't be allowedto cool off. Now is the time to start communityaction programs dealing with narcotics. Theremust be action and strong action.
Hoboken citizens can do it. Its been done inother cities by both young and old.
In downtown New York, the most effectiveweapon against narcotics and pushers is a groupof young hoods (they admit it themselves) whotake their own action against it after too manyof their members became victims.
Not a pusher or user will step into their turfbecause they know the punishment will beswift and sure. Sure, it may not be legal orreally solve the overall problem. But it hassolved it for their particular area. Their youngerbrothers and sisters aren't going to be subject tocontinuous contact with pushers and users.
Can we say that?• * «
Those abundant weed gardens which gracedthe Church Towers apartments in Hoboken,have finally been cleaned up-now that thesummer is over. Gardening didn't seem to bethe operators long suit and weeds grew at willalong the apartment buildings rear fences onGrand Street.
But two workmen were out last week andpulled out the summer's growth. Better latethan never.
* * *
Hoboken is approaching a critical period inits history. Within the next few months thecity's future will be decided.
But from a practical viewpoint, the matterhas already been settled and it is just a matterof time...100 percent assessment will driveHoboken to its knees bringing financial disasterto a good many people in the process.
For those of you who are still clutching atstraws and believe that Arthur Goldberg will beable to convince the various courts along theway to the supreme court that Hudson Countyshould be exempt from 100 percent assessment,it is only a dream. The battle has been foughtbefore and lost before. It will be lost again. Theonly thing that might be gained is time.
Informed observers believe that Hoboken'stax rate under 100 percent will be between $95and $100 per thousand. While this is lower thanthe current tax rate, it will bs p»id on the truevalue of the property not one third value.
In other words, if you own a home assessedat $30,000 you are going to be paying close to$3,000 a year in taxes. That's a lot of money toa guy who is just making ends meet now. Andthink what it is going to do to the older homeowners who are now living on fixed incomes
» and have no way of getting the additionalmoney they will need to pay their taxes.
Some may think we are painting an overly:•;<? Aute. p ic ture If so, fust check with the bank
that holds your mortgage. You will find thatmany of them are preparing to start escrowaccounts so that property owners have a smallpillow to fall back on. They aren't doing thisfor nothing. They are anticipating the pendingdisaster.
Industry is said to be the one which benefitsmost from the implementation of the newassessment rate. It hasn't lowered theirassessment but it has equalized everyone else sothat they will be paying their fair share. Butdoes local industry pay its fair share and has ttbeen paying it.
Some people say that it hasn't and that alarge scale tax suit might just be the way to findout.
We can't say that Hoboken has given suchbreaks to some of the local industrial giants,but it has happened in other towns and it couldhave happened in Hoboken. Only the industriesthemselves and those who gave them the break,if it was given, know for sure.
The easiest way is to under assess theindustry's land and buildings. This was the wayit was done in other Hudson Countymunicipalities it was found after the small taxpayers went to court.
Eventually, Hoboken will have only twoclasses: the well-to-do and the poor. Themiddleman will be eliminated.
We heard reports some while back that localindustry was concerned with the situation andwas discussing steps it could take to stem theflow once the tax picture went out of wack.Apparently, they were only rumors since littlehas been heard from this area except for theinitial statement against 100 percentassessment.
* * *Don't be surprised if one of Hoboken's
department directors resigns shortly from hisjob. Friends report that Health and WelfareDirector Tony Damato is considering it.
They «ay he is> feed up with the city hallgame and would iati;er be an outside observerthan an inside rall ^uy. It seems that everyone isquick to b'ame Damato when something greswrong, and h.. is getting Hst a little sick of thewhole thing.

* * •Now that the multi-million dollar oil facility
for Hobok . looks like a relatively sure thing,uptown residents are starting to worry aboutthe affect the plant is going to have on theirlives. After living for so many years with theever present smell of hot roasting coffee in theirnoses they are wondering if there isn't going tobe a new odor in the air.
Coffee may not be the best smell in theworld, although some people rather like it, buthave you ever taken a ride through Elizabeth ona Saturday or Sunday afternoon? Brother,that's what you call an odor.
And that's what some residents arewondering if they are going to get stuck withinstead of roasting coffee.
Assurances by the local administration thatall precautions will be taken aren't doing muchto disperse their fears. After all, those sameprecautions could be applied to Elizabeth buthaven't or to the coffee roaster, and haven't.
Local firemen aren't too happy with theprospects either, but they aren't talking aboutit right now. But it could have a great deal todo with their demands in future wagenegotiations with the city.

THE SHUTTLE HUSBAND • Atale of two cities might well bethe title of this sad tale of aweal thy man who shuttledbetween Paris and New York totransact his business. He had awife in Paris and another inBergen County. He had twochildren in Paris, three in BergenCounty. His dual role as husbandand father caused no financialburden because as previouslystated, he was very wealthy. Allwent well until his Americanborn son went to Paris to studyat the Si Bonne. Also attendingwas his daughter by his Frenchwife. The two fell in love andeach in turn reported theirromantic affair to papa . . . theboy, when he returned to thestates, told of the beautiful,charming girl he had met atschool and of his plans to marryher. The girl, while papa was athis Paris home, told hkn of herlove for the American. Papaalmost died . . . what could hedo. After all these years, he hadto tell two women of his dualrole as a shuttle husband. Afterrecovering from the shock bothwomen were, by this time,mature enough to accept thesituation. They decided thechildren should be told. The boywas tok) first and accompaniedpapa back to Paris. The girl
was told the boy she loved washer half brother. She cried a bitb u t as young people dorecovered. But papa is caught inthe middle. The wives say hemust make a choice - that hecannot have them both. Whowon - the Parisian or theAmerican? That is another tale.

may change zoning laws topermit apartment or high riseconstruction.
Such construction wouldnaturally take place first in thoseareas nearest to New York in oradjacent to towns that alreadyhave high-rise buildings.
In Palisades Park, forexample, borough officialsrecently passed an ordinancepermitting five-story apartmenthouse. Both projects requiredzoning changes, or "test case" tosee if bigger construction isfeasible. In nearby Cliffside PArkground has already been brokenfor an 18-story senior citizens'apartment house. Both projectsrequired zoning changes.
For the immediate futurehowever there is not expected tobe any rash of such constructionand if and when it comes luxurytype apartments, such as those inFort Lee, are not expected topredominate.
The need will be for housingfor those who do not havluxury incomes and who will notbe able to purchase a house orfind an available apartment to
. rent. .There will also be other
reasons which will serve toinduce communities to let downtheir zoning defenses and allow amore urbanized type ofconstruction. Mostly they areeconomic.
As the expense of providingmunicipal services increases thetax burden on private homes willbecome very oppressive andofficials will have to seek either abroadened tax base or a meansto reduce the cost of running thetown.
Costs could easily be reducedthrough consolidation ofmunicipalities and many realestate people see this asbecoming an eventual necessity,but as such a move would notcome in the forseeable futurefrom local officials since theycou ld thereby be doing
| themselves out of a job. Very! likely the other alternative will| be taken first, that is, allowingI construction of apartments as! well as some industrial andI shopping center development inj communities that have for years| jealously guarded their strictlyI residential characteristics.
Apartments will probably bethe only type of housing thatworking people will be able toafford according to RalphHawxwell, vice president of theBerton County Chamber ofCommerce. "Statistics haveproven that apartments, asconstructed at present, are anasset to any community," hesaid.
Some however fear that thetax benefits to be gained throughapartment construction will beoffset by the increased costs ofmunicipal services needed toprovide for them. This isespecially true of school systems.
In Fort Lee a recent reportdisclosed that most school agechildren came from privatehomes as compared to apartmenthouses but most of the Fort Leeapartments are those of theluxury type so this need not bealso true of middle incomeapartments.
Perhaps the increased costswill be easily absorbed by thenew ratables or perhaps the needfor municipal consolidation willonly be pointed up sooner but inany case some type of apartmentconstruction will have to beundertaken.

million oaSea
In every section of the city the old is being knockeddown to make way for the new, with millions being putinto one and two-family homes, high-rise apartments andbusiness and industrial expansion.
The Pert of New York Authority is moving ahead onits rail and bus transportation terminal and office com-plex at Journal Square, a combined project that will topthe $40 million mark and give impetus to the investmentof millions more in the Square area. This is the kind ofaction that is quickening the economic and physical re-covery of our city. But that's not all.
Our own civic center is beginning to take shape atthe Square. With the past year's approval of our ModelCity program, there is now the promise that vast acreageof blighted sections Downtown and in Lafayette will soonundergo startling and breath-taking change.
Multi-million dollar expansions are slated for ChristHospital and St. Francis Community Health Center, withconstruction costs estimated at over $11 million. TheHebrew Home and Hospital's contribution toward Lettercommmunity living is a new $3 million, four-story wingextension to its facilities on Stevens Avenue.

had a staggering impact on the city's economy.
In an effort to lessen the burden on taxpaying home-owners, the city is striving to attract new business andindustrial investments and to halt the exodus of middle-income families by raising the standards of municipalservice in every departn.jnt.
Toward this end, the city administration four yearsago formed with the Jersey City Chamber dHommercethe Area Development Council. The thousands of newhousing units that have bean built since then and theconstruction records that have been broken by businessand industrial expansion feint up the success of thisunique joint venture by government and business.
The millions of dollars, put into construction byprivate schools, hospitals, business and manufacturingfirms and home developers prove that Jersey City is onthe upswing — that, as noted earlier, JERSEY CITY IS
WHERE THE ACTION IS.
But go out and see it for yourslf. Learn why, if youdon't know already, Jersey City is a good place to liveand work — and changing for the better all the time.

estate market in that boroughwill continue to rise.
Palisades Park is an attractivecommunity as evidenced by thescores of people who rush torent an available apartment orbuy a house. But the costs arehigh.
For $7,000 before World War2 anyone could build hit ownhome in the borough. Today,you can't buv a house for bmthan $30,000, the brokenreport.
Homes in Palisades PArk thatare being sold are usually ownedby senior citizens who, as is sooften described, are actually leftwithout a dollar to spend ontheir properties because theyhave no income.
The paradox of it all is thatthe elderly in Palisades Park andother communities work all theirlives to pay a mortgage. Justwhen they want to spend their
water bills, gas and electric billsand other expenses faced byhomeowners.
People moving into PalisadesPark, many of them purchasinghomes formerly owned by theelderly, are young couples. Thatfact is not surprising becausePalisades Park is a youngborough.
There are lets than 30 lots ofland left to build on in PalisadesPark. There are som two-familyhouses now going up, costingabout $60,000 to build.
There is a very smallpossibility that high ritedevelopments will ever beconstructed in the boroughbecause of the tight zoningregulations. With the price ofland, averaging $20,000 an acre,it is almost certain that one-etorybusiness shops will never bebuilt.

Where The Action Is!The action is in Jersey City, of course.You can see it for yourself - nearly $100 MILLION
in construction during the past six years!
First an all-time annual construction record was set.The next year that record was broken. Then it wasbroken again, going over the $20 million mark a coupletimes.
How's that for action?
Downtown, for instance, is the sleek $4 million exec-utive office building going up on the old PennsylvaniaRailroad property at Exchange Place. Further inland, lastyear saw the completion of the Holland Tunnel Plazarenewal tract.
The new School 9 and the new Ferris High School,representing $14 million in construction, have opened.At Bergen Square where Peter Stuyvesant stands there'sthe new School 11 named in memory of Dr. Martin LutherKing, Jr. (a $3 million investment in our children's future).
The new-school-a-year pace includes Hudson City'sSchool 27 and Greenville's School 41 and wil l soon in-clude a new School 15 on Dwight Street. (More publicschools have gone up during the past six years than Inall the yean between World Wars 1 and 2.)
As It approaches its 100th anniversary, St. Peter'sCollege is gearing for a massive expansion program,which already includes the OToole Library, built for $1.7million. a S9nO.n0O TtufUnt center, and plans for a $2.3
If you're a housewife you'll marvel at the shoppingcenters along the city's once-desolate Route 440 on theWest Side. You no longer have to drive all the way toBergen County for this type of ultramodern shoppingfacility.
Stop and shop—then continue on:
Along Garfield Avenue, see the new industrial en-claves being developed, and furttar south the newmiddle-income garden apartments and the new five-story,$800,000 extension to the Salvation Army's Door ofHope. In Greenville, see the spectacular changes atGreenville Hospital and the two new low-income housingdevelopments for senior citizens, those immaculate high-rise apartments that replaced barracks-type housing andneighborhood eyesores.
For a before-and-after comparison visit the PointBreeze tract in the city's southeastern sector, then returnnext year. This land brought $2 million to the city treas-ury and is slated for development into a huge and bustling.industrial-transportation complex that will utilize bothw a t e r e d rail shipping facilities, provide jobs for hun-dreds and add millions of dollars In ratables that will helpkeep homeowners' tax bills down.

MARTINO OFFERS VIEWSON HI-RISE & RATABLES
There is no way to go but up,say Fairview officials if thatborough is to gain much neededratables. Mayor John V. Martino,the first to concede this need,does so with some very soundreservations. When questionedabout Fairview's future withrespect to new construction inthe borough, the mayor without -hesitation replied, "When 1assumed the office of mayoralmost two years ago, 1recognized the need to moderateconstruction, because 1 felt therewas a feeling of apprehension,fear, and in many instances,outright protest to the allowanceof any l a r g e - s c a l e newconstruction."
The mayor pointed out, "Ifollowed this line of reasoningbecause as a leader of acommunity, I could not violate
" community attitudes and could ~not fail to comply with thewishes of the residents. I feltthen as 1 do now that effectiveleadership means leading thepublic to its objectives and notleading the public to the leaders'objectives by jamming somethingdown its throat."
As to seeking the solution viahigh-rise. Mayor Martino said hefelt strongly that any step orsteps taken in this direction mustb e p r e c e d e d b y c l o s eexamination and study of s ix .specific factors he can think ofat the moment such as:
"There must be an in-depthstudy of the impact on ourschool system.
"We must seriously considerthe effect upon our local fire andpolice departments.
"We must consider the effectof these multi-storied buildingson our sewer and drainagesystem, which is an old systemand if overloaded could berendered inadequate.
"Of paramount importance," -said the mayor, "we mustc o n s i d e r the communityattitudes of the residents andany question concerning thedirection of multistoried orhigh-rise buildings. The questionshould be placed before thepeople through referendum,after a completion of all thestudies. This of course includes
where the structures will beerected and the number ofs t o n e s b e c a u s e such adevelopment might very welleffect a change in the characterof the community dependingupon the degree to which thisbuilding program would becontinued. It could very wellchange Fairview from a suburb*,type community to an urbantype
"A profound study must bemade of the anticipatedincreased ratables which anysuch program might produce,considering of course theincreased expenditures withrespect to municipal services inconnection with such a program.
"Final ly any proposedhigh-rise program should notinvolve government subsidies,condemnation or urban renewal,but s h o u l d be privatelyi n s t i t u t e d and op rated,particularly at a tune whenfederal monies are being cutback to a greater degree."
Mayor MArtino continued "Ifirmly believe that when all thesep r e r e q u i s i t e s have beenexamined, studied and perfected,that our borough would beprepared to launch upon abuilding program encompassinghigh-rise structures at certainareas on Bergen Blvd., at certainlocations on Anderson Ave. andFairview Ave. and possibly a fewother areas in the communitythat may provide a potential forthis type of program."
In conclusion Mayor Martinosaid, "The borough at thepresent time offers a strong andstable financial picture, andthere is no question in my mindthat a building program of thistype, if administered prudentlyand intelligently, with anin-depth planning, would
"definitely enhance the positionof the borough's residents."
But, most important of all, inmaking these comments, MayorMArtino said he was notc o m m i t t i n g any politicalorganization or administration tothese views inasmuch as theywere his ov*n personal views withrespect to a program of thistype.

Hudson County FreeholderDirector Jacob J. Duszynski,commenting on that area'sbuilding expansion plans, saidthe county has the potential for"tremendous growth" andpointed to the fact the countyhad in its favor "ideal location,transportation facilities and thec l i m a t e for g o o d lab-or-management relations."
S u s t a i n i n g FreeholderDuszynski's convictions, CountyEngineer Frank C. Manningpointed out that plans areunderway for improved roads inHudson. Kennedy Boulevard, hes a i d , is presently beingreconstructed.
County spokesmen also drewattention to the residentialcharacter of its communities, aswell as the industrial aspects.They pointed to the small homesand the new high-rise apartmentsalong the Hudson River in NorthHudson.
As for North Hudson itself,Abel Bozzo, who will be thenext president of North HudsonBoard of Realtors, cited 'hisfeelings on the area's future. Hepointed out that "tight money"with high interest rates wasslowing down the economy.
He asserted that tax relief wasan essential, with legislationnecessary "to protect thehomeowner from being devouredby high taxes." But he addedreassuringly "I'm optimisticabout the future of real estate inou,r county."
In Jersey City, AngeloMazzeo, head of MazzeoAssociates, at 30 Journal Square,who acquired the realty businessof the late Ben Schlossberg, saidthat Hudson's future lay in itsclose proximity to New YorkCity and its natural resources.
"Hudson County offers anexcellent labor supply," hea d d e d , a s s e r t i n g thatemployment agencies, too, wantto locat in the county. He saidt h a t "tight money" hadtemporarily slowed downtransact ions but he seesprospects for a loosening up offunds.

HOBOKEN ON WAY TO BWfiKTNEW FUTURE, SAYS DePASCALE
pente ~J
Hall thatFederal urban renewal
problems will nut deter Hobokenfrom embarking on one of themost ambitious constructionprograms in its history, saidMayor Louis DePascale thisweek. The mayor said the wayhad been cleared for the$33-mil!ion Grogan Plazadevelopment on Hudson St. anda S30-miliion oil treatment planton the waterfront. i
A three-block area from Firstto Fourth Sts., Hudson St. toRiver St. has already beencleared for the' John GroganMArine View Plaza. This; will bea complex of four $3-storyapartment houses and a 25-storyoffice structure that will rankamong the most modern in themetropolitan area.
The apartments, overlookingthe New York skyline, will havebalconies and swimming pools.There will be shopping facilitiesand parking for an estimated2,000 automobiles in anunderground garage.
Downtown Hoboken wiMtake on a completely new look,"said the mayor, "and it wil bedifficult to imagine you're still inthe same city."
Because of their convenientlocation and the proximity toPATH rapid transit and bust ransportation to MAnhattan,DePAscale predicted that theluxury apartments will be muchsought after. He also felt the25-itory office building will berented rapidly by firms takingadvantage of geographicallocation in the metropolitanarea.
The complex will bear thename of the late John J. Grogan,the former mayor who was longassociated with waterfrontdevelopments.
The mayor indicated thatCity Hall agencies might also
t move into the new officestructure. It was pointed outthat it would be moreeconomical to rent quarters inthe new office building than to

Adjoining Grogan Plaza willbe the 70 blocks that have beendesignated for rehabilitation andrenewal under the Model Cities
This an* extends fromSt. wttt to the city line
and from Observer Highwaynorth to Fourth St.
Within these boundaries slumbuildings will be torn down andreplaced by modern structures.Good bui ldings will berehabilitated.
"This is more than urbanrenewal, it is the total approachto putting new life into an oldcity," said the mayor. He addedthat he was proud that hisadministration was among thefirst cities in the nation toqualify for funds under thefederal Model Cities program.
Turning to industry, themayor hailed as "great news forHoboken," the plans to establisha $30-million oil treatmentterminal on the site of the oldTodd Shipyard property on theHudson River at the city'snorthern border.
With this plant, providingemployment for hundreds and agreat boost in tax ratables,Hoboken will have developedthis choice waterfront site to itsfull potential," said the mayor.
Other plans include a newsenior citizens' apartmentbuilding and a school. Both willbe constructed on Willow Ave.near the present Wallace Schoolon 1 lth St. It will be the thirdsenior citizens' apartmentbuilding in the city and the firstfor the uptown area.
Mayor DePascale said, "I'mpleased to report that ourplanning and our work areshowing results and thatHoboken today is on the way toa bright new future.
ordinances call for 150 per centpuking facilities for all multipleunits. That law is followed to theletter as seen in the presentconstruction of two newapartment houses, each to houseabout 54 families.
One of the apartment housesunder construction is at theGorge and Edgewater Rds.intersection. The secondapartment house is on AndersonAve. near A.K. Macagna FuneralHome.
A five-4toty apartment houseis proposed for land just south ofthe Cottage Restaurant on GorgeRd. Construction will begin soonon two more apartment houses.
CLIFFSIDE PARKHI-RISE WILLPROVIDE 254 HOMESFOR ELDERLY
Cliffside Park senior citizenswill be the occupants of thatborough's first high-risea p a r t m e n t s now underconstruction on Gorge Road.The public project will provideapartments for the elderly in the254-unit, 18-story structure for amonthly rent of $45.
Surprisingly, while privatedevelopers are announcing theirplans for developments in nearbyFort Lee and Edgewater all thetime, there is no talk of high-riseapartments in Cliffside PArk.
A comprehensive master planprepared in 1965 detailingCliffside PArk's direction fordevelopment earmarks at leasttwo areas for high rise dwellings.Bur there are no takers.
Palisades Amusement PArk,on the north edge of theborough, is one site where if ispredicted high-rise apartmentswill stand before the next decadeis ended.
The second area marked forhigh-rise dwellings is at the southend of the borough and also onthe Cliffs of the Palisades. Thearea stretches from the east sideof Palisade Aye. to the cliffs andfrom the Gorge Rd. pistol rangeto Bender Place.

'70s MAY BRING FAHTASTICCHANGES WHEUN PREDICTS
SEPTEMBER 25, >969
OTIS FOOTBALL SEASON STARTS
Mayor Thomas J. Whelan ofJersey City predicts that thedecade ahead will b» the mostimportant for the city in thiscentury in terms of progress andprosperity. "The 1970s," hesaid, "will see fantastic changesthat will give Jersey City themomentum to continue buildinganew right into the 21stcentury."
Whelan predicted that thefirst half of the coining decadewill see the completion of thewide-ranging urban renewalprograms that have already beendrafted and that the second halfof the decade will be highlightedb y " t h e unp receden t edexpansion of business andindustry."
The mayor said also that thedownward trend in populationwill soon be reversed and thatthe 1970s will see "thousandsupon thousands., of new housingunits constructed to cope with"a rapidly rising tide ofmiddle-income families."
Nearing completion of hissixth year as Jersey City's chiefexecutive, Whelan pointed to along list of administrativeaccomplishments - including thegroundwork for the massivebuilding programs slated for thenear future - but he is quick toadd that "the most breathtakingchanges" are still over thehorizon but will materialize inthe 1970s.
H o w e v e r , i f the futureportends greater things, onemust admit that the latter half ofthis decade has brought startlingchanges. In 1964, Whelan's first
"full year as mayor, the city setan all-time record in buildingconstruction, and the record wasbroken twice since then.
In all, some $100-million hasbeen poured into construction -for new homes, schools, business
-and industrial expansion, and-health centers - during Whelan's^nure.
The long-dormant Jersey Citywaterfront is being revitalizedand soon will be bustling withcommerce that will mean moretax revenue and thousands ofnew jobs. Early in the comingdecade the Port of New YorkAuthority transportation centerand office complex at JournalSquare will be a booming realityand will give, impetus to privateb u s i n e s s and residentialdevelopment in the Square'senvirons.
The new school's have goneup at the rate of one a yearduring Whelan's time - with morebuilt since he became mayorthan in all the years oetweenWorld War 1 and World War 2 -and the pace will continue,according to present plans andthe availability of funds.
Along Route 440 on thecity's west side, the past few,years have seen desolateswampland transformed intomodern shopping centers. Onabandoned railroad property atExchange PI., a 54-million officebuilding is nearing completion,
-the first of several economic -vitality tq that section and to thecity as a whole.
With Whelan heading thenegotiating team, the 239-acrePoint Breeze tract in the city'ssoutheast sector was sold formore than $2-million, and twoweeks ago pilings began to besunk there to mark the beginningof construction on what
•*. eventually will be one of then t t i o a ' i biggest container-
port-transportation operations,where employment will run intothe thousands.
The last half of this decadealso saw the completion of theGregory Apartments ai.J theHolland Tunnel Plaza urbanrenewal projects downtown.Whelan is confident thatGregory's success will attractprivate high-rise apartmentdevelopers to the downdownarea long before the 1970s reachthe halfway mark. He pointedout that people living in thissection are closer in time anddistance to New York TradeCenter and Manhattan's financialdistrict than the vast majority ofNew Yorkors.
Urban renewal projectsWhelan expects to be completesbefore the end of the mid '70sinclude the Hamilton Park and
-Paulus Hook projects downtownand the Montgomery St. andJAckson Ave. projects that callfor thousands of new housingunits., shopping centers and newcommercial and light industrialdevelopment. Now moving aheadon schedule is Civic Center onthe west side of Journal Square.
However , d e s p i t e hisoptimism concerning the city'simmediate and long-rangebuilding future, Whelan notesthat the program- cannot becarried to completion withoutmassive financial aid from thestate and federal government.
He is disturbed over reportsout of Washington that theNixon administration is planningsweeping cutbacks in federal-aidprograms affecting the nation'sbig cities, including programswhich already have beenapproved and which have servedcity planners as the foundationsfor other building programs.
"Much has been accomplishedin recent years toward stemmingthe tide of urban blight andreplacing the old with the new,"Whelan said. "With our ownlimited financial resources andthe assistance given, tremendousimprovements have been made.And the investment by privatebusiness and industry has helpedimmeasureably. But withoutcontinued support from the state !
and federal governments the (progress will halt and once a&ainthe tide will be reversed."

TENANT SERVICES PROGRAMSTYMIED BY LACK OF FUNDS
The Hoboken housingauthority recently asked theHouse Banking and CurrencyCommittee to restore funds inthe forth-coming federal budgetto encourage public housingtenants to furnish communityservices.
In a letter to CongressmanWright Pat man, chairman, theauthority said: "On behalf ofthis authority, we request yourfull support \n having restoredby the Appropriat ionsCommittee the funds necessaryfor community services to befurnished tenants in publichousing projects.. ' ' P u b l i c H o u s i n gadministrators attest that it isdifficult to organize volunteertenant services from existingcommunity service organizationswithout having any money toestablish at least the initialframework for a tenant servicesprogram. It is not realistic toexpect that voluntary agencieswill be able to set up themachinery necessary to maintainadequate staff to perform tenantservices. "Without money it isimpossible to even trainvolunteers for tenant servicesprograms.
"The tenant services programwas passed by Congress not onlyto upgrad" some of the basicelements of everyday living ofpublic housing tenants, but alsobecause Congress realized thatsuch services aimed at improvingthe way of life for publichousing tenants would also helpinvestment that Congress hasmade for the American people inpublic housing. We believe thatthe fundingjequested for tenantservices represents a necessaryand intelligent way to protectthis investment.
"We urge the AppropriationsCommittee to enact legislationforthwith to provide thesenecessary funds."

Wilson sa id , "I canu n d e r s t a n d G a r r i c k ' smiscalculating his vacation days,but it appears that he did havesome doubts as to whether hewas right or not. If the officerwas in doubt, he should havechecked with his superiors whichhe did not."
