SUBWAY WOODWARD NOT
ENOUGH SAYS HAARER
Tubes Just as Necessary in
Fort, Michigan and Gratiot,
Commissioner Declares

Building a subway in Woodward
ave, will not provide adequate relief
from the present state of street rail-
way congestion says Commissioner
Haarer.
In my opinion not much practical
benefit will result from this one sub
way in its effect on other arteries OF
the city. III we are going TO build sub
ways | think il Is just as necessary
to build them in Fort-st., and Michi-
gan and Gratiot-ayes., as II Is TO
place tube below Woodward-aye.
Ten years ago If any one had sug-
gested a subway TO me l would have
regarded II as foolish proposition.
Now | not only think subways are
necessary but have come TO the con.
clusion that more than two tubes are
needed in each subway.
"One or two tubes In Woodward
ave-, would not accomplish adequate
results. Interurban traffic is very
large at the same hours that the
tracks are needed the most for local
traffic. II only two tubes were used,
interurban cars would get mixed up
with city cars, and traffic would be
People who use the interur-
ban cars insist on riding to the CEN

In the center of the city when out
bound. That means interurban cars
Will have to be operated downtown
to accommodate those thousands or
people. AS the city grows the inter
urban traffic Is going to increase rap
idly. Then IL will be seen that ad-
6it:onal tubes are required to care
for that trafc, II the street car lines
in the principal streets are to be put
under ground"
Speaking OF the subways he thinks
necessary for Fort, Michigan and
Gratiot, the commissioner said:
Il would extend the tube in Michi-
ganave., as far as the Grand Trunk
crossing. The one in Fort-st., should
run as far as Clark, and in Gratiot
the subway should extend as far as
tho city limits.
Considering the proposition from
the standpoint of cost, the work could
extend over a period of years. N
would not have TO be done all at
once. But | feel sure that any plan
looking to the building OF subway
should include all four streets. | fail
to see how a tube in Woodward-ave.

fic on the other streets l have

And now this machine, eloquent il

And then proves it.
Think of this machine attaching to

that you could put ten of them into

Think of literary machine, like
the Remington Typewriter, taking to
itself one or more of these little things

Think of this machine not only
