SHEA SAYS 1T is Not A JOB
THE ONLY SOLUTION FOR THE
BRIDGE CONGESTION.

Bridge Commissioner John L. Shea yesterday
denied the story that there huge political
lob in Senator McCarren's bill, giving the city
extraordinary powers In condemnation proceedings.
The bill Is designed TO give the city authority TO
take title certain properties just north OF the
Manhattan entrance TO the bridge" said Mr.. Shea.
Under the existing statutes the city cannot take
the necessary steps 10 relieve the congestion on
the Brooklyn Bridge"
If Senator McCarren's bill becomes n law. 1t is
expected that the city will acquire title TO 'Al'
Adamss building at Park Row and the bridge
roadway. the Hart Building adjoining. and the
building occupied by the 'Staats-Zeitung" When
the Manhattan terminal building constructed
the owners of the last named building obtained
legislation which tends TO prevent the acquire
ment of any part OF their property by the city.
1t is estimated that the city would be compelled to
pay not less than 100000 for the three parcels
named. The ground so secured could be utilized
for a loop system for the bridge Bridge
Commissioner Shea seems to think that Senator
McCarrens bill is the only thing that will enable
the city to solve the congestion difficulty at the
Manhattan end of the bridge He says that the
bill is not mandatory in its wording.
