But We suspect that small sub-station
In Hyde Park would be self-sustaining
from the start, without material hurt
to the revenues of the main office, If 1T
were}to contain stamp and money order
departments, leaving the registration
OF letters and packages as perquisite
of the parent station.
Wherever this experiment has been
judiciously tried in other cities 1t has
been found to work we'll. People pur-
chase a larger number Of stamps and
more frequently send money by the
money order system in proportion to
the larger convenience of such trans
actions. 1t cannot justly be called con-
venient for a resident of Providence on
the one extreme or Bellevue on the other
to trudge two miles or pay 10 cents in
car fare every time he wishes to post
a letter with money order inside it.
The same thing is true in less degree
of the residents of Hyde Park proper
The cost of establishing an expert
mental sub-station would not be large.
Why not make the experiment, and see
how it would be received?

The Committee On ManufnctOries
Getting Down to Work.
The special committee Of citizens an
pointed by the mayor i'm accordance with
a resolution of council for the purpose Of
taking steps to secure the location of man-
ufacWring industries i'm Savannah, met
yesterday at noon at the city exchange.

win and /. c. Haas. Mayor Myers pre-
sided. and Mr.. A. n. Mauucy, clerk Of
council. was elected secretary
There was considerable discussion as
to the best means for the committee to
adopt in beginning its work. Mr.. Lester
said he found, in visiting northern
cities, that many business men there are
under the impression that Savannah is
an unhealthy city. AS this is not the case,
he suggested that the health officer
prepare table of statistics showing the
sanitary condition and death rate of Sa-
vannah, and that a pamphlet be published
giving these statistics with others show
ing the commerce of the port and its de-
STABILITY as a manufacturing location.
Mr.. Lester said that he owned considera-
BILE land in the vicinity of Savannah, and
that he was willing 10 give one-slxth Of
1t to manufacturers locating here. The
large suburban land owners, he thought,
should be asked to meet and state what
they were willing to do to aid the commit
tee in It's work.
There was considerable discussion on
the lines suggested by Mr.. Lester. The
result was the adoption of the following
resolution offered by Alderman Garrard:
THAT the chair appoint a committee
of three to outline a general plan of work,
appoint subcommittee necessary to carry
out the details. and make such other
suggestions as they may deem necessary
and to report back to the general COM
mittee."
The committee was urged to make its
report as carly as possible. Mayor Myers
appointed the following committee Al
derman G9rrard. chairman, and Messrs.
George J. Baldwin and 1. G.. Haas.

that If the 5000 awarded the Vernon
Shell Road Company by the courts for its
property taken under condemnation pro
ceedings by the city. be paid at once tho
company would move its fences and toll
gate on or before March 3, beyond the
southern line Of Twelfth street
Another communicah ton from Mr.. Lester
Of later date stated that if the city would
stipulate and agree to keep up and main
tain the shell road on Bull stre- from An
derson street to the city limits the shell
read company win surrender all claim to
that portion of the road south of the
suthern line of Twelfth street TO the cor
pOrate limits of the city.
The south side Of Twelfth street is not
the southern boundary of the city. though
generally spoken Of as such. The south
egn boundary extends some hundred feet
or more south so as 10 include the lots
facing on the south side Of Twelfth street.
Mr.. Lester 10 seems, holds that the cou-
demna tion proceedings instituted by the
city We're only for that portion of the
shell road within the corporate limits to
the south line of Twelfth street. and Ii is
on this ground that be seeks to make an
agreement by which the city viii be COM
PEELED to keep up the shell road 10 the new
toll gate in consideration OF his giving
mp that portion of the road included be-
tween the south side of Twelfth street
and the southern boundary of the city
City Attorney Adams holds however,
that the decree of the supreme court in
favor of the city compels the she'll road
company TO remove its toll gate to the
southern boundary of the city. The coun-
ell took no action on Mr. Lester commu-
nication and instructed the mayor and the
city attorney to carry out the decree of
the supreme court.
Mir, Lester said nothing in his cOmmuni-
cation about demanding interest on the
$500 first awarded the shell road company
by the city from the time of the award and
it is understood that he has abandoned
that claim. He has not Vet called upon the
city treasurer for the $3.50. however.
