THAT FoRsYTHE AVE. BRIDGE.

THE TIMES gives it's hearty CO.
operation to the project of building
a new bridge over the west branch
of the canal at Forsythe avenue.
The county commissioners have Just
made an appropriation for a bridge
at Chicago avenue. it Is true, but the
rapid industrial development of East
Chicago and Hammond has made an
other necessary and it should be
built at once
The fact should not be overlooked
that the East Chicago Company is
spending s250.000 for the construc-
ton of the west branch of the canal.
This company. in fact, should be CIV
en- credit for the unprecedented
spirit of progressiveness that has
prompted it to spend practically all
OF the money 1t has received from
recent sales of land, with the excep-
ton OF the sale to the Baldwin Com
pany in canal improvements.
1t has done this because of its im-
piled promise to build the canal. 1t
has done this because the success of
Its East Chicago project seems to be
the first consideration with the COM
pany
1t is safe to say that the East Chi
cago company has done more to pro-
mote the growth of the cities OF
North township than any other
factor in the region
And Vice President Westberg
does not ask the people of the county
to build that bridge for the East
Chicago Company. He simply asks
that the bridge be built for the bene-
mt OF the public at large and incl
dentally the building of the bridge
Will facilitate the building of the
$11,000,000 plant OF the Northwest
ern Iron Company.
1t is little thing to ask after all
the East Chicago Company has done
for the development of the region.
after all the East Chicago company
mas paid to the county In taxes.
The county commissioners should
break all records for speed in
authorizing the bridge and tina
county councilmen should lose no
time in making the necessary ammo
priation.
