HONESTY AN ESSENTIAL
Trenton, IVb. 114. James Logan,
county engineer of Iturlington county,
addressed the stnto highways conven
tion today on the "Itelatlons Itetwecn
State Highway Inspectors and County
Authorities."
Mr. Logan defined the nature of the
work nnd duties of the mnn who is em
ployed to see that the contractor for a
.section of stnte highway conforms to the
specification and gives proper value
for money expended.
"An Inspector on any work has' two
major troubles," said Mr. I.ogau, ".the
ontractor nnd Ulie engineer. The con
tractor thinks lie Is too particular, the
engineer docs not think ho is sufficiently
particular. The engineer is employed
by the owner nnd when lie is on the job
he is there for the specific purpose of
finding fault, if there is any to be found,
nnd it is possible to find fault with
every job.
"The state highway Inspector on nny
state aid county road job lias three
different authorities to deal with. The
owner, in "this case, is n partnership
affair between the stnto nnd the county,
who arc the party of the first part nnd
the contractor is the party of the sec
ond part. The inspector must work for
the interests of the party of the first
.part and it bring n partnership affair,
requires the inspector to represent both
partners. The state requires thnt their
Interests, as well as the county's in
terests, be protected by enreful intelli
gent supervision of the work according
to tho specifications, plans nnd con
tract. "During the progress of the work
the inspector must nt nil times be on
the job. He must be n keen observer.
The usefulness of the inspector to tlie
party of the' first part is his ability to
look'nfler the interests of the partner
ship nfYnir, his knowledge of what goes
on on the work nnd his nbility to im
part same to the ngents of tho partners.
"It goes without saying that the in
'spec! or must be honest. The party of
(he first part will, under no considera
tion, think of having nn inspector con
tinue on nny job If lie Is on the payroll
of the stnte nnd tlie contfnetor ut the
snme time. If the Inspector only knew
with what contempt he whs held In the
eyes of the contractor he would be very
careful. I mu sure, not to accept favors
from him."
Among spenkers scheduled for ad
dresses toilny nrc .lohn M. ICclly,
president of the New .Jersey State High
way Contractors' Association, who wilt
speak on "Causes nnd Preventions of
Delays In Highway Construction' ;
Itobert McKnlght. of the Anderson

Districts Are Planned
"To overcome these conditions it is
proposed to district the city, placing
hsigbth limits in each of the several
districts, such districts being designated
fcy tho Tatio to tho width of the street.
For this purpose the fifty-foot wide
street is taken as the basis for caleula
tJons. In addition to tho limit by the
times width of the street, there is nlso
a flat, limit above which n building mnv
not bn erected, regardless of the width
of the street : namely, one times dis
trict, forty-five- feet: one and one-half
times, sixty -five feet: two times, eighty
five feet. to nnd one-half times. PJ5
feet, and three times. 1."0 feet. The
three times district includes the portion
around City Hall nnd for designated
ections on cither side in the present
high-building district. The two nnd
one-half times district consists of n
much larger area nnd comprises n large
portion of the central commercial and
Industrial districts. The one and one
and one-half times districts are prin
cipally residential nreas.
"In making calculations for heightb
limits the street line is the starting level,
ao that by setting back from the prop
erty line tnese neignis muy i- ckltu.

1Xth anniversary of the founding of
the institution, lhc school now is nt
!." North Tenth street.
"I tegret that the college should
have remained in this environment for
such a long time." said the Mayor. "It
should have been moved years ago. I
can only hope that) in some way the
Mayor, long before his retirement from
office, may be ablo to assist in hnvjng
this institution housed ln n building
more suitable for a school of its dignity
and grandeur. It should be done in the
interests of a splendid student body. I
trust that you may find the Mayor al
ways a friend nnd willing to help in
this matter if the way be pointed out
to him.' . ,
The Mayor' address wn greeted
with prolonged applause. Il was pro
posed last .Tune, when plans for a new
building for the College of Pharmacy
were broached, that the school be es
tablished on the Parkway. The Mayor s
talk last night was interpreted as fa
voring this project. Howard B. French,
president of the college, said:
"The founders' work has been done,
now it is our duty to carry on, to fol
low their lead, to strive to make our
big college larger and finer.
"We have missed the start of the
first hundred years, but we enn nil
help start the second century in the
right manner. The spirit of 1S21 gave
birth to the first rollego of pharmacy

the most important feature in zoning
Is the use restriction, of which there
arc four kinds of use districts: n resi
