HALL HAS TRAFFIC PLAN
Councilman Would Cut Streets
Through City Hall Plaza

Councilman Charles B. Hall an-
nounced today that he has a plan for
relieving traffic congestion around City
Hall by cutting through the Public
Buildings. This plan would result in
enabling traffic TO pass directly north
and south on Broad street, without
going around the Hall, and, likewise,
traffic could run directly east and west
on Market street without the long run
around the plaza.
"My thought" said the councilman
from South Philadelphia, "aims at re-
lieving congestion and restoring the
beautiful vista of Broad street. would
cut through Broad street and also Mar.
ket street, making four buildings out OF
the present City Hall. Each of the
four could be bridged, and IL we have
a City Hall annex nearby these four
buildings could he connected by tun.
nell"
"My thought Is help l. working out
a program which will, to q large ex-
tent, remove the pile of public build
ings as the great obstacle in the center
of the city. This obstacle halts de-
velopment and impedes traffic. l am
moved to make the suggestion as to
cutting through the Hall by the odi-
torial in the EVENING PUBLIC LEDGER.
Therefore, let us try to work out
this problem so that We can get the
results we are after and at the same

at Time Mentioned
WEAKENS BERGD0lL CASE

C. r. Lefingwell. assistant secretary
of the treasury, whose name was
brought before the grand jury investi-
eating the escape of Grover G. Bergdoll,
in a letter today denied that he knew
of the withdrawal of S105, 900 from

posed to have obtained the gold for

ney McAvoy hoped to prove that the

to army officials and through which he
obtained permission to search for HIS
buried treasure in Maryland. was n
myth. or that the gold was obtained
through fraud. The letter received to-
day by the district attorney disproves
the embargo story and admittedly weak
ems the governments case. In short, 1t
shows that any one might obtain gold
