GRADE CROSSINGS
BEING CONSIDERED
Conference Between City Officials
and Superintendent Of w. ].
R. R. May Bring Results

A conference of the Mayor and
Council of Pleasantville with Super
intendent Buckalew, of the W. J. & S.
Ry. Co., was held to consider the
crossings in Pleasantville. The city
officials are anxious that the railroad
shall elevate their tracks in the city's
limits and SO expressed themselves to
the Superintendent. The latter sug-
gested the elevating of the shore
road. This plan was strongly object
ed to by the Mayor and Councilmen,
who stated that the travel was too
heavy and the loss to property would
be too great.
If the road is elevated a number of
streets, like Georgia avenue, now
blocked by the railroad, can be opened
and improved. The plan of elevation
was considered as being the most
feasible if the City of Pleasantville is
to receive protection from the Rail
road
No additional watchman service
will be placed on the Shore Road as
Council is convinced that the COM
pany has given the city good service
in this respect.
The matter of placing watchman
at the New Road crossing was con-
sidered by the Superintendent. He
declared he had placed men there to
watch the amount of travel over the
crossing and the number of teams
traversing the road would not necessi-
tate watchman service there. On this
point Council did not press him to
issue, hoping to gain their point in
the elevation of the tracks.
The arrival Of Mr.. Buckalew on the
scene is decided victory for City
Solicitor Lewis, who took up the al
most hopeless task of making the rail
road company listen to the cry of the
Pleasantville people. He did not send
them a demand that the people must
have better service, but requested an
interview on the subject. and gained
consideration.
