Building Plea Sea Girt Board of Adjust-meat Upholds Inspcc tor in Dispute (Staff Correspondent) SPRING LAKE The board of ad-Justment last night turned down an appeal taken in behalf of Lloyd E.

Newman, Sea Girt, for permission to construct a dwelling on a 25-foot lot on Ludlow avenue, site of a controversy early In the summer over materials that had been stored on the plot. The board upheld Building Inspector Jacob G. Newman that the local zon ing ordinance prohibits construction on lots with less than 50-feet frontage east of Fourth avenue.

Chester B. Vliet, 214 Ludlow avenue. Early in ths summer a tool shed and other materials were stored on the lot and both Mrs. Pearce and Dr. Vliet complained to the boro council.

The municipal officials subsequently ordered that the materials be removed, Warrants were, issued for Mr. Newman and his father, former Councilman Lloyd E. Newman, Sea Girt, when tho materials were not removed by specified date. Action was halted wlv rhj A ''zPZA arts, Middletown, former sheriff and county clerk, and Walter J.

The commission was told by the slat department, It was learned, that no question of foreign policy was Involved in the transfer. Senator Connally (D-Tex.) told reporters that transfer of registry by somo American lines was to be anticipated.

Senator Capper altho term-lng the proposal a surprise, added iat he saw nothing to be alarmed On the other hand, Joseph C'Jin, president of the National Marltin un-Ion, declared in New York that the transfer would mean "the company can ignore the collectlvo bargaining contract with us." "If they put alien seamen on these ships to evade the neutrality law and our union contracts," he said, "we will march 10,000 seamen down to Washington and picket the place 'till they drop."
