 As a result of the fight for the extension of Clark street and the widening of James street it is ru- mored that another improvement so- ciety will be formed in this section, the promoters being the persons who are opposed to the improvements named above. The taxpayers that are opposed to the widening of James street think that to protect them- selves they should organize and with that end in view plans are being laid for the formation of the new urgani- zation. At the meeting of the bureau of assessment last Thursday evening to receive the opinions of those who would be indirectly affected by the proposed improvements the persons in favor of paying an assessment were in the majority, but the opposi- tion asserts that at the next meeting those against the project will out number the other side. The plan of the new society is to have for inem- Der every taxpayer in Brooklyn. hut the scheme does not look any too rosy to the writer. Those that are advocating the formation of another society cannot see where the Brook lyn and Town Plot organization has been of any benefit. but they un- doubtedly do not care to see wha. the society has done for this section Of the city. One of the reasons why the men are opposing the widening of James street is the argument tha. the thoroughfare Is wide enough as Iit Is. They maintain that even with the trolley running up there traffic will be light and very few heavy wagons will endeavor to climb the hill. Moreover. they make the as- sertion that Bank street near James street Is only 27 feet wide and state that the city should attend to that matter before it endeayors to widen James street. William Iauper of James street is one of the principal agitators for the new society and he declares that within a short time 1t will be formed and have big mem bership. Do you intend to oppose the Brooklyn and Town Plot Im- provement commsttee." he was asked and he replied somewhat as follows: We certainly intend to and we are of the opinion that we can do much better work" He then went on to harangue some of the members of the committee who have not been attending the meetings. and stated the committee should be composed of all BrcokiynftesA Although two so- efetiss If they pull together would De all right. if the people ca thss side stop to consider. they vfil certainly se< that Brooklyn and town organi- raffon has been a big factor la get tfnR the city government to 1nok af-
