Railroad Counsel Declares 23 Bridges Would Cause Car, Train Delays (Staff Correspondent) FREEHOLD A vigorous objection to the proposed construction of the Manasquan-Shrewsbiiry canal was filed by the Central Railroad of New Jersey today as the war department engineers began hearings on the needs for such a waterway. The hearing is being held at the courthouse. William F.

Hanlon, Interlaken. assistant general solicitor for the railroad, based his principal objection to the canal on the fact that numerous drawbridges would have to be constructed to carry trains and automotive traffic over the canal. The draw bridges, he said, would seriously interfere with train traffic, particularly in the summer months when there is a great increase in both train movements and small boat use. Mr. Hanlon estimated such a project would require construcion of about 25 new highway spans, all drawbridges, and at least four new railroad drawbridges "Main Arteries Affected" 'Some of the highways affccled are main arteries of truck, bus and pleasure car traffic between many of our large cities and important points on the New Jersey coast." the Jersev Central attorney declared.

"The continuous opening of the drawbridges along these highways will not onlv result in tying up traffic, but will undoubtedly re sult in increasing the number of accident Because of the installation of the additional railroad drawbridges, railroad traffic would be seriouslv impeded by the continuous opening ot ine drawbridges Hanlon continued. "It is well konwn that the passenger traffic on the New York and Long Branch railroad is ex- tremely heavy in the summertime, when many pleasure boats would he "sing Ihe suggested canal." This would result in "a serious tie-up of railroad tratlic and would cause "unneccsary delays" to commuter bo the Jersey Central and the Pennsylvania railroads, which joint- ly own the New York and Long Branch.

TRENTON A ruling that would have had a marked effect tho not enough to upset the result on the famous Donahay-Sterner 1942 surrogate election in Monmouth county was handed down esterday by the supreme court, which ruled servicemen are entitled to vote whether or not they are registered.

The opinion, written by Justice Bodine. was given in a case arising from the 1943 New Brunswick com- mission election and results in the upsetting of that election. Justice Bodines opinion ruled that all 241 servicemen's votes cast in the New Brunswick poll were valid and should be countPd, even tho it was found that 63 of the soldiers and sailors were noi registered. 1 ne cie- cision reversed the ruling of Circuit Court Judse Oliphant. who had voided all the ballots of servicemen on the grounds that the unregistered servicemen coma noi ne segregated.

The Oliphant ruling that was unset vesterdav parallelled the rule handed down by Circuit Court Judge Robert Kinkead last year in the Monmouth county case.
