Stout, Jr,, treasurer:
Director Taylor's proposal has al
ways looked good to me- As for the
plan or Mr.. Costello, I know but little
OF what Il embodies. While am only
speaking for myself, / feel we should
adhere TO something we know Is good
rather than Jump about everywhere.
Unless we flgnt hard for one thing It
may DE that we will get nothing.
CENTRAL GERMANTOWN AVENUE
BUSINESS MEMS ASSOCIATION,
Louis J. suess, president:
with the Hunting Park Avenue AS
sociation and the Logan Association,
our organization has been militant for
the Taylor plan OF transit for several
months. We have indorsed the idea
and our Councimen have also declared
themselves for It. We are working
hard for Its adoption.
SAMSON STREET BUSINESS MEMS
ASSOCIATION, representing a member
ship of 50, d. V. Brown, president:
The transit plan proposed by Coun-
Gilman Costello looks to me like a po-
litical trick to confuse and delay the
transit plans already before the people
l would like to see rapid transit here
and want to see IL during the present
generation. For that reason l am in
favor OF plans that purpose to give us
the high-speed system as soon as pos
sible.
There are many features OF the Tay-
lor plan that | consider good, but II
responsible private corporation were to
guarantee high-speed transit sooner
than the Taylor plan, with the same
advantages, I should probably favor
the private corporation. We need high
speed transit and the SAMSON street
( Business Mems Association will do all
in its power to get it.
]. f. Neill, secretary:
1t is evident to the members OF the
SAMSON Street Business Mems Asso-
citation that we are in need OF some
method to get people to and from the
centre of the city quickly. Since the
Taylor plan purposes to get the high
speed service and to improve transit
conditions generally sooner than any
other plan and to do this under condi-
tions that are apparently advantageous
