COUNCIL TO PROVIDE
STAND FOR TAXEI
Will Be Permitted to Occupy
Space in Front of County
Building

Cadillac-sq., between Bates and Ran
dolph-sts., directly in front OF the
county building. will be paved from
curb to curb and made station for
taxi-cabs and other automobiles, IL the
council follows the recommendation
OF the committees on streets and parks
and boulevards. The committees mct
in joint session. Monday morning, to
consider the resolution introduced by
Aid. Lynch, providing for the altera-
ton OF Cadillac-sq.. and decided to re-
port favorably on Ii to the council.
The plan has the Endorsement OF
Police Commissioner Croul. according
to members OF the committees.
What to do with the taxi-cabs that
now line the curbs In front of public
buildings has been a problem with
the council and police commissioner
for years. Merchants are said to
have taken in thousands OF dollars in
rental by permitting the taxi-cabs to
stand in front OF their places of ,busi-
ness. although by doing so she
machines INSTRUCTED traflc. There
has been a constant feud among the
rival taxi-cab companies for places Of
vantage around the city hall. The
council plans to do away with all this
and allot one station where the taxls
must stand.
: The area is large enough to accom-
modate other automobiles and the ar
rangement will be such that machines
owned by individuals who spend their
time In Offices may, with safety. be
left .there during the day. A police
man will be on. hand to guard them.
At present many OF these privately
owned automobiles are stationed In
FOREST, just west OF Woodward-aVe.

ment OF public works to remove the
trees from the parking, level the land
and pave with either brick or asphalt

for the cause OF Democracy. A great
many people have a profound respect
for Georges political activity. based
upon his successful control OF the
more or less malodorous politics of
Huntington. but Georges services did
not seem 10 be in demand when the
Democratic state committee met at
Petersburg. II will be remembered
that George started into the sena-
torial fight in 1911 as a staunch sup
porter OF John 7. McGraw, but along
about the time the fight became inter
esting. George saw a great light and
took a trip to Cincinnati. or possibly
II was that George took a trip 10 Gin
cinnati and saw a great white light.
Anyhow a white light and a coal deal
figured in Georges conversion.
Is IL possible that Watson figures
out that George Is too expensive a
man to have at the head OF the State
committee?
