Y COURT RULING 2.000 BY MRS ST".LMAN (Lot Owner May Build as He Pleases Provided He Does Not Menace Public Health or Create Nui- sance, State’s Highest Tribunal Decides.

Decision Here Appealed. The decision of the District Supreme Court was handed down in the case | an, who wis idences on Co business pu from the de now pending. the decision was | rendered by the | ast resort i that State. of the New Jersey zoning ontained in the following hed in the New York 2 bullding which | court o A r quabble is rticle publ Times: ince the Court of Errors and Ap- als, the court of final resort in New v, made its deliverance upon the | much agitated subject of zoning regu- |lations, the communities of the State have regarded their zoning system as| having been irreclaimably cast into the scrap h Chief Justice William S. Gummere had given the zoners some on a review of the case be- the full bench, the overturning :s of the Supreme Court justices, aling with independent cases in their several districts, might be reversed. But when the decision of the Court of Errors, affirming all the justices had done, came down, it was seen to have been made and its text prepared by Mr. Gummere. Cannot Bind Buyer. The court’s ruling was made up pretty much along the lines the as- e justice had laid down. Thel right of & man to put upon his lot any | building that is not a legal nuisance | or a menace to the health or safety | of the community was reasserted, and the Chief Justice ran in one pregnant point that had not been so sharply | stated in the discussions before. He | said that the purchase of a plece of | property and the erection of a build- ing upon it did not give the purchaser the right to say what kind of struc- ture some future purchaser must put on a nearby site. The buyer takes the chances in the buying and is only unfortunate if he loses in the game. “The zoners are finding a slim hope of coming out whole yet in the fact that the court did not rule upon the right of the State to enact a zoning law. The decision is that the Nutley zoning law, which is a type of those prevailing elsewhere, is not conform- able with the right of a property owner to make any harmless use he pleases of his property. But the law- vers have thus far found it impossible to frame a te law that will not run somewhere t some feature of the court's rulings, and express the » for ru |in enforcing zoning regulations, visi- |ble ever since the courts first inti- fear that the whole system is in iscard. The West Orange authorities have, y examy men large The pre sion Planned Cheap Houses. A rec ed and y small comer to the loc wcreage amid th 1 to cut the building lity se homes acres up into d rear cheap houses on them. went up a roar | from the surrounding residents that | was heard by the local masters. The court’s rulings, that seem to take no| account of the harm that non-con-| formity with {ts character may bring | to a community, warned the zoning| officfals against the needlessness of trying to set up the zoning ordinances | inst his plans, and they had noth- 5 to do but lle back and await de-| pments. These came a few days ago when the owner of the acres applied to the | town for street and sewer opening | permits. The town saw an oppor- tunfty to get in there and seized it. He was told that the locality into which he proposed to obtrude small houses was not the place for them, and that the authorities could not ac- tively help him get them where no one but he wanted them. If he could give the town a bond to the effect that le would not put up anything under a $10,000 building upon any one of the lots or, if he sold the lots, carry in the deed a clause of that purport, the improvements he sought might be au- thorized. Upon no_other condition would he be allowed to put a spade into his acres. “The matter stands there for the present, but the applicant is expected to go to the courts with a request for mandamus directing the officials to e the necessary permits. And it' has been questioned, more than once, whether If a community cannot ‘put over’ a zoning regulation a_holder of a lot can.do it all alone by himself with his little deed. It is said, too, that if, as ‘Was 'ruled in the Nutley cage, a man who gets a plece of land cah put anything he lfkes on it, the incidental ' rights that go with that main right must also be allowed, and the West Orange resldents fear that the likely application to the courts will be as successful as if it were for a permit to build. Enforced Elsewhere. “Meanwhile, the growing loosenese | mated that they cannot be main- tained, has found fresh illustration in the recent action taken by the Board of Adjustment—which is the zoning board—of Newark. For months and months the board_has been pestered with applications for the erection of gasoline service stations and garage buildings in the places that do not want them, and because of the court’s opposition to zoning ordinances, the authorities have been granting them with far more freedom than would | have marked their dealing with the matter under other circumstances, and refusing only when they were pretty sure the applicant will scarcely hav |and West Virginia and NEWSPAPER MAN A WITNESS IN THE TRIAL ex., Light, testifying yesterday GEORGE recognition of Soviet Russia w by a score of 432 to 416 points.

In one instance the application was for a permit to build a public garage opposite St. Benedict’'s Church and School on Komorn street; in another, | the application was for one opposite Evangel Baptist Church on Eighteenth avenue and South Twentieth street.
