PROPOSED new
CITY BRIDGES
TO BE MODERN
tcontInued from page one.l


drawing shows an additional arch diff
fering slightly in shape from the other
arches. At each end OF the bridge are
steps leading from Washington street
to comfort stations midway on the
flight OF steps.
The pylOn is to be erected at the
northern end of the bridge The ped
estal will be about 80 feet in height
and on top OF that will be a statue about
IS feet high. The statues will be ap-
propriate to the soldiers and sailors
The proposed bridge will be Of a
finish that will expose the stone so
that IL will harmonize with the sur
rounding natural conditions.
The dimensions of the passage OF the
proposed bridge would be the same as
those Of the present structure. The
driveway would be 40 feet, with side
walks Of a width Of 10 feet on each
side. One OF the most important
changes would be the shifting OF the
trolley tracks to the center of the span
The drawings will be placed on exhi-
bitiOn in a Market street window with
in short time.
The drawings Of the proposed Market
street bridge propose the eliminating Of
the railroad grade crossing at the
northern end Of the bridge and the
Strengthening OF Market street. Il is
proposed. to have three arches span
the creek and three similar arches on
each side Of these. The large number
Of arches is caused by the lowness Of
the proposed structure, which, how
ever, would be sufficiently higher than
the present bridge to eliminate the
railroad crossing.

money was used for buying food for
their wives and children and not for
fighting. Disappointment was express
ed regarding Haase's speech as he was
expected to Introduce a program for
constructive legislation.
Finance Minister Schiller who pro-
ceeded Haase said that "properey con-
oeption in Germany must change com
pletely" and that thereafter individ-
uals must regard themselves not as
owners but merely as administrators. ="
"Germany's financial situation Is
desperate and our mastery OF IL will
depend entirely upon the condition in
which the Entente leaves us" said
Schiller. "We must wait coolly until
they decide. Germany's war credits and
loans amount to i60,0OO0OOOOO marks
ls40.OOO.0O0)"
Schiller charged "crookedness" in
conduct Of the war especially by the
proflteers.
"The present economic situation also
is desperate" he said. "The various
strikes are unjustifed. One great trou-
ble is that country workers crowd into
the cities whereas they are badly need
ed in the country"
He said the empire faced exhaustion
in October, 1918, but was tided over
through the issuing Of fifteen billion
marks in unsecured notes. The last
Reichstag. he said, had not paid more
than is000.O00Oo0 marks (S4,500,0O0,-
C00), OF the old debts.
Schiller said he would not condemn
the Workmcn's and Soldiers Councils, as
their organization was necessary for
the success OF the revolution In its ini-
tfal stages but he declared their rule
had resulted in the misuse OF tremen-
ious funds. He proposed an official In
Of past expenditures and a
survey OF future needs. The 1918 taxes.
