URGES THE CITY

posed at First Fall
Meeting.
UNDECIDED WHERE RIVER
SHOULD BE SPAWNED
Minority and Majority Reports
Conflict and Matter of Loca-
ton Is Lett Open.

The adoption of a building code by
the city; the building of a bridge
across the Passaic river north of Clay
street; the immediate paving of Mount
Pleasant avenue, and the lighting OF
entrances and driveways in Branch
Brook Park were recommended by the
Board of Trade last night at its first
monthly meeting of the fall.
The special bridge committee was
unable to agree upon a location. The
majority, consisting of Chairman Harry
Peter Kreiner and aul %. Heller, S.
Fred Bailey, Henry Dickson n Harri-
son Van Duyne, in their report, pro-
posed Elwood avenue as the location
of the Newark end. T Albert C. Courier
and George A. Oil, jr., the minority,
reported in favor of building 1t from
Grafton avenue.
The board adopted neither sugges
ton, but passed a resolution urging
that the work be done, leaving the To-
cation indefinite.
J.. w. Howard, chairman of the
streets and paving committee, offered
a resolution, which was adopted, for
the placing of policemen at h en-
frances to Branch Brook Park to see
that vehicles are equipped with the pre-
scribed lights. The paving of Mount
Pleasant avenue and the widening of
the present entrance to Elwood we
nue. were also recommended.
The following resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That the Board of Trade,
realizing the fact that a prope build-
ing code is needed for immediate use,
and that it's adoption has been delayed
by the various Common Councils since
1908, and that any further delay by the
present administration would necessi-
tate the going over the same ground
with new committees from the Com
mon Council, therefore urge action by
the city authorities before the close of
the year 1905"
