there was no mistake was with
him for the old plan of the bridge
full width.
Peter Walstad suggested that
the only argument offered for the
compromise was to get more room
for the approach to the municipal
dock. He said the thing to do
was excavate under the bridge en-
trance in Eleventh street, pvt in
comfort stations and other public
rooms and run a subway over
across A street to take the dock
overflow.
w. j. Thompson seconded the
suggestion and said ex-Mayor
Henry Drumm had made the same
suggestion to him.
, E. r. Rogers also liked the idea.
There has been no demand for
a narrowing of the bridge from
the original plans and no demand
from the people for a change at
all. 1t has come entirely from
Perkins for his own benefit and
this commission should represent
the people, not Perkins," was the
sentiment of H. H. Johnson.

Threatens
New York

(By United Press Leased Wicc.)
NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-The
striking garbage collectors are in
complete control of the situation
and are as obdurate as Mayor
Gaynor who declares they will
either return to work under the
conditions he offers or remain out.
They say they will not go back to
work until they win their point.
Public opinion, topped by indigna-
Ition and general fear of an epi-
demic resulting from the filth, is
running high and sympathy is with
the strikers.
All efforts of strike breakers
have utterly failed so far. The East
ISide is suffering intolerable filth.
The strikers expect an answer to
their letter addressed to Mayor
Gaynor today, and they are willing
to arbitrate. But the mayor will
probably refuse.
A mass meeting of $500 strikers
will be held in Cooper Union to-
might under the auspices of the So
lcialists.

most people in the lower part OF the
country are of the opinion that truck

gions that are in hearing of the sad

responsive sand bank. The idea Is
erroneous. Within the past two weeks

folks who hear the sad sea waves as
they try to dodge the early spring
frosts that too often come along with
the sad sea waves.

guess is ventured that within the next
decade the big trucking end of Vir-
ginta will be westward ra Their than

are learning how to grow things, and
they are figuring right largely on the
