ONE Way TRAFFIC
STRONGLY OPPOSED
Merchants West Of Central Park
Fear Loss Of Business

Business men having stores on the
west side of Main street, from Cro-
wells corner to the Y. M. G. A. ap-
peared before the board of public
commissioners at their public hearing
last evening and strongly opposed the
proposition to establish one way traf-
fc in the center of the city The
purpose Of the police commissioners
in ordering the hearing was to obtain
the sentiment Of the business men,
and also hear any new ideas that
might be advanced. The proposal for
one way traffic was that: No vehicles
or trolley cars, or fire, police and
United States mails, shall, between
the hours OF $50 a. m. and $50 o.
M, Sundays excepted, pass along the
west side of Main street except in q
southerly direction. No vehicle shall
stop on either side of said street fac
ing the opposite direction from that
in which traffic is required to pass,

The New Britain garden committee
held q meeting last night in the rooms
OF the chamber Of commerce. 1t was
voted to have the treasurer and super

against 80 acres year ago. The num-
Der of gardens cultivated this year
was more than 1900. The produce
raised is valued at moro than 5000.

Frank J. Porter of B. G. Porter,
Sons said that one of the objections
to the proposal OF one way traffic is
that it permits unlimited parking in
the street. He pointed out the value
of his display windows as an advcr-
Using medium. The real estate in
vestment there was $4,000 and con-
tents value of the property was $780,
600 and the proposition would be in
furious.
Fred Beloin, owner of the Holmes
& Hoffman block said that the danger
Gus condition existing at Crowell's
corner demanded action looking to-
wards a remedy before a serious &C
cident occurs. He said that sooner or
later there will be q serious accident
and then action will be taken and it
would be better for the city to go about
the matter right at the start and settle
it for all time. The only relief in
his opinion will be by cutting off a
strip from the west side of the park.
A sketch was shown by w. l.. Hatch,
which called for relocating the tracks
at the south end of the park
Dugald Mcmillan said that when
the present layout of tracks was pro-
posed he felt that it was wrong and
after seeing it in operation was firm
ly convinced. He though the cars
could be best routed by double track
ing on Main street.
Traffic Supervisor Lamphere said
that by shifting the tracks on the
last side of the street carrying
them over to the curb, and transfer
ring passengers at the south end of
the park would eliminate much of the
existing danger.
Former Mayor Halloran said that
he would not hesitate If he were now
mayor to eliminate part of the park.
At the conclusion of the meeting
Chairman King expressed apprecia-
ton for the attendance and the ideas
advanced. He said that a conference
will be held with q representative of
the Connecticut Co.. in relation to the
matter.

Somewhere in France,
Sept. 27, 1918.
Dear friend:
T received your most welcome card
the other day and believe me l was
glad to get it. It came just as we
were beginning to get few hours
rest after q particularly hard drive.
No doubt you have read all about
that long before you will receive this,
but you can't realize how happy we
felt after reaching our objective with
such speed and such little resistance.
Our regiment with Co. at the head,
lead the whole show and it sure was
a wonderful but sad sight that lay
before us after our long hike through
the woods. 1t was dark night, and
as we came out of the woods the sky
was ali ai;ght from humorous blazing
and before going they set ali the
towns afire, even burned grain in the
fields. We marched right into tho
towns and captured many OF Their

she said. Someone answered "Amerl-

most took her breath away. She threw
her arms around the neck of the

cried just for JOY. She had been told

but vehicles may stop with the left
side next to the curb.
Merchants who appeared said that
their business would be injured by
the establishment of one way traffic
and two other remedies were sug-
gested. One idea advanced was to
cut off a strip of land from the park
in the center and make q wider street,
and two propositions for changes in
trolley track layouts were advanced.
1t was suggested that relief could be
obtained by eliminating the trolley
tracks on that side of the park,
double tracking on Main street. An
other plan advanced was that Of relO-
eating the tracks on the west side of
the park, carrying them over nearer to
the park.
The purpose of the traffic COM
mittee is to eliminate the danger in
front of the Y. M. c. A. which s now
very serious. When passengers are
changing cars there now vehicular
mavement are difficult and danger
Gus. The traffic committee believes
that the only relief that can be OBJ
tanned from the existing conditions is
to establish the one way traffic re-
quiring up traffic to follow the east
side of the park and all south bound
traffic to go down the west side OF
the park
