CITING D. p. w, COMMISSIONER
MAoEE HAS PLAN THAT WILL
ENAsLE CITY TO DO NEcEs.
sARv WORK WITHOUT DELAY.

A new remedy has been proposed TO
Dut the sidewalks OF the city in con-
dltion without bankrupting the con
VINCENT fund temporarily, as has been
the case in other years. In spite of
the fact that the sidewalk building
done on city orders has averaged ABOUT
& 1100, 900 a year for three years past
khere are still many rotting wood
walks. which cause trouble and result
IN Injuries and damage suits against
Abe city.
VI II has been proposed that the legis-
nature be asked To give the city power
10 issue special assessment bonds
against sidewalks built. This would
Allow OF doing all the needful work
a once and give the ready money for
the purpose. At present unless the
property owner is willing To pay at
once, tho city cannot collect the cost
tof walk in less than year and a
half or two years.
II do not know why such bonds
would not be legal as we'll as bonds
1esued for paving or sewers" says Ac.-
lne Commissioner Magee. THE side
walks are a necessary and a perma-
'nent Improvement and a plan of
uaying for them with bonds could DE
arranged so as 10 give the property
owners time TO pay for their walks
xradually or in one lump. saving Inter
est charges by the latter method.
Such bonds would not be issue
ngainst a single walk but against a
group OF walks"
Magee win recommend to Commits
nioner Haarer plan OF having the
Iuidewaik division of the department
prepare, before the sidewalk building
season starts, complete list of all
dangerous walks which must be re-
Dlaced so that the work to be done for
the season can be presented To the
council and the latter body order the
manner in which funds are to be pro-
yided.
Assistant Corporation Counsel At
kinson. who tried the personal damage
cases. is greatly interested in the side
walk question. He particularly favors
y larger appropriation TO allow OF
building brick or cement crossings at
alley entrances and across unpaved
streets. instead OF the wooden cross
walks now built.
with regard TO the street crossings
OF plank. the policy Is ridiculous. as
we lay walks of wood with an apparent
idea that they will outlive a pavement
yet unlaid," says Atkinson. I'VE
nhould put in permanent cross-walks
M through the city"
q Last year the board OF estimates
cut out the appropriation for alley
'cross-walks entirely and the depart
|ment OF public works has been getting
blame ever since because property
'owners who we're ordered to build new
Itement walks found themselves COM
PEELED r. wade Through mud at the
alleys or in other cases had to pick
their way over faulty stone alley cross.

DETROIT TO MOVE
SLOWLY IN CIVIC
IDENTIFICATION
GENERAL PLAN WILL BE oEveL'
oPEp BUT NO ACTUAL WoI.k
WILL BE DONE FOR PROBABLY
TWO YEARS.

Detroit will hasten slowly in follow
ing out "A plan OF civic Identification.
Although a fair, start was made We'd

n commission that will lay out I'M
provements for the future city. II VIII
be year at least. and probably two
years before real start forward is
made In the movement.
A first step will be the inclusion In
the budget for this year of an appro-
priation OF from $4,000 To $4,000 90
hire a commission of experts To look
over the city and develop plai Tor
the future. Once that plan Is me-
up and accepted, il will be up TO the
council 10 make improvements in the
way Of parks. public buildings, street
openings and docks in accord with
this plan.
Thirty business men and officials
gathered in the council chamber We'd
nesday afternoon 10 discuss Aid. Re-
naud's civic Identification resolution.
All favored the adoption OF plan
similar TO those OF other cities. and
finally n committee consisting of Paul
c. Renaul, Charles Moore. +. c. Bald
win. NJ. j. NJ. Grylls and Frank G..
RYAN was chosen TO lead in the move
ment
A further impetus will be given by
lecture OF Albert Kelsey, OF Phila'
delphia, arranged by the Board OF
Commerce. for Jan. l9. Kelsey is one
of the experts engaged In city I'M
provement in Columbus, Chicago and
other places.
Charles Moore was the first speaker
and he described the worldwide move
ment for systematic Improvement OF
cities. showing that Berlin had been
remade in generation. that Paris,
after spending $265000.000, was pre-
pairing TO spend another great sum 10
relieve congestion: that London is
spending sl25.000O00 To relieve bad
traffic and housing conditions, that
200 minor cities of Germany are work
ing toward ultimate plans of civic
beauty. that even Manila and other
oriental towns have adopted plans for
the future.
Making a plan for Detroit would cost
| little money. he argued. while il would
result in the money spent by the city
later being spent intelligently and
where il would produce the best eff
feet.

FISH Carl
Passed Through the City Last
Night and Attracted
Attention.
IT WAS HEAVILY STOCKED

A number of people at the Pennsyl-
vania depot were very much interested
in a government fish car which passed
through the city last evening about Z
o'clock. The car attracted q great
deal of attention. 1t is estimated that
there were approximately 10000 fish
in the car in about $50 metal cans. The
cans were filled with water and had
small rubber tubes attached through
which the air was constantly forced.
stirring the water and thus keeping
the fish alive. 1t is necessary to
change the water at frequent inter-
walls along the route, it is said.
The fish are furnished free by the
government and the rivers and lakes
of the country are kept we'll supplied
with the finney tribe at the expense of
the government. About 300 small
bass minnows were taken off the car
here and several of the rivers and
ponds south of the city were stocked
today.

PLAN NO REDUCTION

Although not speaking authorita-
lively for the bakers of the city, well
known baker committed himself today
in regard to the proposed reduction in
the price of bread. He said that the
present prices, both Wholesale and re-
tail, would be maintained, he felt pos
tive. The bakers and the committee
Of the grocerymen have not held a
meeting yet.
The price Of the materials used In
the baking of bread is such that a
profit can not be made If the price is
lowered, was stated. The bakers are
not much worried over the threat of
the grocers to purchase their bread
from outside sources, providing the
bakers do not reduce their prices.
