Ind what flteTSiew Delaware River
Bridge will de for Camden
IF you de net knew New Yerk and Brooklyn, as well as
you knew Philadelphia and Camden, let me tell you what
the Brooklyn Bridge and the Bridges and Subways that
have followed did for Brooklyn.
Almest 1,500,000 people have moved te Brooklyn since the Brooklyn Bridge was built Te-day
mere than twice the population of Camden cresses the Brooklyn Bridge daily. This enormous flew
of hemeseekers forced the building of additional eridges and subways. Tunnels were built under
the East River and Manhattan's Subways were extended te Brooklyn.
Philadelphia hemeseekers will flew ever the New Delaware Bridge te Camden just as New Yerk
hemeseekers flowed ever the Brooklyn Bridge te Brooklyn. This flew of population should force
the building of mere bridges and the extension of Philadelphia's Subway System under the Delaware
River te Camden.
Surely I de net have te tell any thinking man or woman what the effect will be en Camden

The Speculator
vs.
The Heme Owner
IT has been brought te our attention
that there are serious complaints that
the big auction sale of 1,578 brick houses
at Camden and 320 houses at Bristel will
be exclusively for the benefit of the specu
lator, and that the small home-owner will
net have a "leek-in."
This is an unwarranted criticism of the
Shipping Beard, and an injustice te my
reputation for fair dealing. The Shipping
Beard gave me most positive instructions
that the individual home-buyer be given
the utmost consideration and every op
portunity. The houses are te be offered singly se
that any individual may buy an in
dividual house. My advertising has been
directed most particularly te the in
dividual, te bring te his attention the
great probable increase in value in
Camden and the unique opportunity te
procure for himself and his family a
beautiful dwelling at the auction bid
Ice. This is an opportunity of a life
time: if the individual ails te seise the
opportunity, it is net my fault.
I have pointed out, however, that I
must eccept the lughes' r id. This is auch
a unique and great offering that un
doubtedly speculators and shrewd in
vestors will be hovering around te "snap
up" bargains. In justice te the United
States Government, it would be wrong
te prevent the speculator and investor
from buying if he bids the highest price;
but-r-there are a great number of houses,
and many bargains are bound te be had.
Let no man, after this sale, say that the
speculators have been favored. Rather
let every man who has thoughts of a
house, attend this sale; let him see hew
simple, open and above-beard every,
thing is and what ample opportunity he
has te buy if only he has a few dollars
available; let him bid en the house he
desires, and if some ether person pays
higher, let him bid en another.
But, if he fails te attend this sale and
bid, let him ever after held his peace.
If, having failed te attend the sale, he
afterward pays a profit te some specu
lator, the faults is his net mine. I
give him FAIR WARNING.

Twe Mayers Approve Sale.
The Mayers of both Philadelphia and
Camden, as well as elher men with
vision, see Camden as "the Brooklyn of
Philadelphia," and regard this snip as
the first opportunity en a grand scale
for small investors te take advantage
of the great development which is sure
te fellow; the opening of the Delaware
River bridge.
"Fairview is a geld mine," said Mayer
Charles II. Ellis, of Camden, yesterday.
"I am glad te hear that the Government
is anxious that the houses be purchased
by individuals, rather than by specu
lators. We don't want te see our people
made victims of profiteers' greed. We
want happy and contented home-owners
in this growing city, which I firmly
believe will one day rival Philadelphia
in importance."
Fer some time there has been a move
ment under way in Camden te increase
the assessment en Fairview property.
With a view of aiding the small buyers,
Mayer Ellis said that it would net be
put into effect if the individual honic henic
seckcr should succeed en December 10
in purchasing a large number of the
Fairview homes.
Mayer Moere in a recent address, net
commenting en the Fairview sale, but
speaking in general about the growth of
metropolitan Philadelphia, said:
"One can hardly realize the impor
tance of such aTeature as the proposed
Delaware River bridge, which is Le
unite New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
When this great structure is complete
and the trolley lines and vchi-ular traf
fic arc dnshing across it we can visualize
a growth that will make Philadelphia
enormously mere irnpertant ns a metrop
olis than it is. The Camden side of the
river is already developing rapidly in
anticipation of the bridge. On the
Pennsylvania side the suburbs arc filling
tip. One day all of this great coming
')fjelhcr of UV pee,)le mu.-l be likened
i Hie i ri of New Yerk and broeklyu,
whiih is nev Grciter New Yerk.
"People arc seeking homes away from
the congested centres, und in the Lnter-e-it
of heultii, happiness and geed enicr
we ought te encourage this tendency.
Tleth sides of the river arc going te
benefit largely from this great bridge,
which will link up the two States and
bring all the Western Slates te the
seashore."
Government te Lese Meney.
The Government is sure te lese money
en this auction sale. It cpeels te.
Vast sums were spent te make this
operation attractive te the best class of
employees. Cost "ns no object and
Uncle Sam only expects le get a fraction
of this in return.
Tf the Government were willing te
net the part of a greedy realty specu
lator il probably could held thear- houses
for a few years and make a profit even
en its outlay at war price-i. Hut tin
L'nited States is mere anxious te aid
in the solution of the housing problem
and te see its thrifty people in romfort remfort romfert
nbln homes than it is te make a few
millions. Consequently, it has com
missioned Jeseph P. Day, the nationally natienally nationally
knewu auctioneer of New Yerk, te put
this entire development under the
hummer without restrictions.
Thousands and thousands of dollars
arc being spent in advertising te en
courage the individual te bid. If the
Government wanted the houses te go te
speculators, no money would have te be
spent in advertising a few phone calls
would suffice te bring from the syndi
cates their offers.
It gees without saying that each one
of thc.e brick houses will be a bargain.
The speculator bugaboo should net
frighten the home-seeker. Speculators
are looking for inordinate profits and
will net pay anything near the real
value. The man who is willing te pay
$200 or $300 mere than the speculator
would, will get a house, which later the
speculator would charge him $2000 or
8000 mere than the auction price.
