Appeal from Supreme Court.
Hannoch & Lasser, of Newark (Herbert J. Hannoch and Morris Weinstein, both of Newark, of counsel), for relators-respondents.
Thomas L. Parsonnet, of Newark (Joseph A. Ward, of Newark, for counsel), for respondents-appellants.
This case is controlled by our decision today in the case of Brown et al. Relators-Respondents, v. Murphy et al., Respondents-Appellants, 134 N.J.L. 318, 47 A.2d 595.
The only distinction is that the City, in this case, pursuant to statutory authority (R.S. 40:179-34, N.J.S.A.), established and constructed a seaport and industrial terminal and the lands of the respondents were incorporated therein, and that the City was given the power to condemn by R.S. 40:179-34, N.J.S.A.
The judgment under appeal is affirmed.
For affirmance: The CHANCELLOR, Justices BODINE, DONGES, COLIE, WACHENFELD, EASTWOOD, and BURLING, and Judges WELLS, DILL, FREUND, McGEEHAN, and McLEAN-12.
For reversal: None.
