Want CAR Lines
ON THIRD AVENUE
Desire to Extend Business Dis
trict by New Routing of
Traffic.

Third avenue property owners met
in the Office OF Mayor H. NJ. Schriyer
this afternoon for the purpose Of set
ting in motion action which will bring
about the consideration and possibly
the realization of routing west on
Third avenue from Twentieth street OF
at least one of the street car lines. As
the avenue is soon TO be improved by
the laying of pavement. the Third ave
nue. business men are DESTROYS OF
bringing the matter to a head at this
time. They desire either the routing
of the Fourth avenue or the Elm street
line west on the avenue. They ad-
vance as their big argument in favor
of the project the fact that it will help
to increase the business district OF the
city and will enhance the value OF
property over larger area than under
the present system.
A similar movement was made a few
years ago. but nothing came OF it. At
that time the traffic corporation was
before the old council for an extension
of franchise rights.
