menting on the condition of the
Grand-blvd. pavement as compared
with the boulevard pavement in Chi
cage. Mr.. Lodge was in Chicago for
several hours with members OF the
Board OF Commerce last Saturday and
most OF the time was spent in auto
mobiles, driving about the boulevagds.
The result is that great deal OF UNI
favorable comment has been heard
concerning the condition OF Detroit's
main boulevard.
THE Chicago boulevards are as
smooth as glass" said Mr.. Lodge
-The condition of our boulevard, com.
pared with those In Chicago, Is a dis.
grace to the city. The board of esti-
mates should have allowed sufficient
money this year to resurface the en-
tire boulevard. The work should be
done at once, completely and thor,
onghly."
