The Mosquito Must Go 33 



CAPE MAY CITY'S BOARD IN FAVOR 



Chamber of Commerce, 

 Atlantic City. 

 The Cape May Board of Trade wishes to join very thoroughly in the 

 slogan— "THE MOSQUITO MUST GO." We have been working on that 

 line for several years, and endorse most heartily the movement to make it a 

 thoroughly state-wide movement and will render just as much assistance as 

 possible in the accomplishing of this purpose. 



Yours very truly, 



Luther C. Ogden, 



President. 



OCEAN COUNTY BOARD SUPPORTS THE CAMPAIGN 



Chamber of Commerce, 



Atlantic City, N. J. 

 I am very pleased to have the Atlantic City Chamber of Commerce take 

 up this mosquito work with the idea of co-operating and helping the cam- 

 paign throughout New Jersey. We cannot get the end accomplished until 

 we get more public opinion in back of us. The counties are doing wonderful 

 work, of course, but the job is too long and the end too far off at the present 

 rate. 



R. F. Engle, 

 President Ocean County Commission. 



EX-GOVERNOR GIVES HIS APPROVAL IN FIGHT 

 AGAINST MOSQUITO 



GLAD TO SEE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE PUSHING MOVEMENT, 

 HE TELLS PRESIDENT LEEDS 



Ex-Governor Walter E. Edge, United States Senator from 

 New Jersey, has given unqualified approval to the movement 

 launched by the Atlantic City Chamber of Commerce to unite 

 all forces in the state and procure state aid for the elimination 

 of the mosquito pest in New Jersey. Senator Edge has written 

 Samuel P. Leeds, president of the shore Chamber of Commerce, 

 as follows : 



I am delighted to see the Chamber of Commerce co-operating in the task 

 of exterminating the mosquito. I am frank to say that I would value very 

 highly that advertising which would proclaim to health and pleasure-seekers 

 throughout the world that the mosquito is no longer a pest in New Jersey. 



You are aware, of course, of the great strides which have been made 

 toward this objective by the joint efforts of the state and the various counties 

 to get rid of the mosquito through draining marsh lands and carefully in- 

 specting back yards and other rendezvous for the fresh-water species. 



I have always been in hearty accord with the efforts to exterminate the 

 mosquito scientifically, and if the movement secures the hearty co-operation 

 and backing of the various Chambers of Commerce, I am sure that it will be 

 successful that much sooner. 



Very truly yours, 



WALTER E. EDGE."
