The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1916-1920, 1919-08-18
WEEK DAY RUSH
MUST GO AFOOT
TOREACH WORK
Surface Lines Admittedly
Not Able to Make a Dent
in the Traffic.
JITNEYS MAY HELP SOME
Large Employers Spend Sun
day Trying to Evolve Means
Of Transit.


Manhattan and The Bronx lightly be-
cause New York for the most part
stayed home. With lowering clouds
and threatened rain it was not a Sun
day for gallavanting.
But even the light traffic of yes
terday gave evil augurv of what will
happen this morning when the hun
dreds of thousands in The Bronx, on
Washington Heights and spread along
the outer edges of Manhattan Island
all the way to the Battery start for
work. There will be not a single sub
way or elevated train for them-and
any one who has seen those subway
and elevated trains in the morning
and evening rush hours OF any nor
NAL day we'll may wonder what is
to happen.
City officials and officers Of large
business firms spent most Of yester-
day planning and worrying about it,
and plan a. sstassr~ssaiA.they could not
do away with all OF the worry. for
the problem is plainly an unsolvable
one.
There will he many emerpencv means
~ ,ror.nor..,,.,, S,.,.. it,,
will run the maximum of their equip
ment on sort of glorified circus day
schedule. The New York Central will
bring $4,000 extra passengers into the
Grand Central The North and the East
Rivers will be made urban highways
for the first time in many years with
fleets of ferries and other craft plying
between the upper and the lower ends
of the island. And the streets will be
flooded with buses and moter driven
conveyances Of every description.
Tardy Clock Punching Certain.
