PLAN ABOLITION
OF 4 DANGEROUS
GRADE CROSSINGS
Public Service Commissioner
Killing Confers With
County Officials

John. s. Killing, of the Public serv-
ice Commission, conferred to-day
with the Dauphin County Commits
sicners on plans for the abolition of
grade crossings along the Philadel-
phia and Reading railway main line
at Swatara Station.
Months ago the County Commits
sioners, Public Service officials. and
State Highway Department represent
atives discussed the plan to eliminate
three grade crossings at Swatara Sta
tion by constructing two subways.
The Dauphin officials suggested in
stead the construction of a new road
way on the south side of the railroad
to replace the highway on the north
side.
A later plan was made, which, If
it is adopted. will make possible the
abolition of four grade crossings, the
three at swatara Station and one
near Brownstone, by constructing
two subways. one near Brownstone
and one at Swatara Station. contin-
uing the road on the north side of
the railway line.
other plans have been suggested
also. and in order to reach definite
decision it is likely a conference of
state and county officials will be
called soon. 1t was explained that
the Public Service Commission has the
power to assess the county town
ships and the railroad company for
the cost Of the improvements, the
state to pay a part of the cost, not
to exceed twenty-five per cent.

Council Fears Two Special
Elections Will Be
Necessary

Commissioner w. Fl. Lynch. su-
perintendent of the city highway
department, said to-day he is plan
ming to introduce in council an ordi-
nance authorizing a vote on a bond
issue of $4,000 to be used in pay
ment for paving street intersections
and in front of non-assessable prop
perty.
According to Mr.. Lynch the loan
vote would not be taken probably
until in November at the general
election when a mayor and four
councilmen are to be chosen by the
taxpayers. At present the city has
no fund to pay for paving street in
tersections, or in front of non-as-
sessible property such as churches
or schools. AS a result when new
paving work is to be done the
amount or this par tof the improve
ment must be met by an appropria-
tion from the city general fund.
