Open the Way TO Mayo Bridge

HERE is public disappointment, We be-
lleve, that the city government has not
displayed greater activity in providing an
approach 10 Mayo Bridge. The Council has
committed itself TO the proposition TO widen
Fourteenth Street, in order to supply this ap-
proach, and this work should be done before
other enterprises, Of the same general char
acter and in the same vicinity. are attempt ed
Obviously The city cannot make at one time
all the improvements that ought TO be made
Ii must take them in order. Councilman

ton for the widening and extension OF Dock
Street Will mean the further postponement
OF the Fourteenth Street project If this be
so. the DOCK Street measure should be laid
aside, whatever its merits as a separate prom
ostion-and I, appears TO have many NJ
