Want Tracks Along Upper
Smith st. Repaved Before
Next Summer

People and especially the mer-
chants residing on Smith street west
of the tracks of the Central Railroad
of New Jersey are much concerned
over the report that the Public Serv-
ice Railway Company does not in
tend to repair the tracks in their
vicinity until next summer. Those
living along this line claim the
tracks ar. in such poor condition
that the cars create a great deal of
noise and shake the buildings as
they pass by. The people in this
section envy those who reside east
Of the Central railroad tracks as the
new track recently laid by the Pub
lie Service from the ferry to the rail-
road makes it possible to operate
the ears with much less noise thai
formerly.
That the track of the Public Serv-
ice west of the railroad needs re-
placing is pointed out on all sides.
The joints are so worn that the cars
bump along and the pavement be-
tween the rails is a mass of holes.
At the corner of Smith and Prospect
streets the condition of the roadbed
is so bad that a load of ashes has
been thrown in a vacant lot on the
southwest corner of the streets and
Traffic officer Chris Hansen, station
ed at the intersection of these streets
says that with this stuff he keeps
filling up the holes as they appear on
the crossing.
People residing in this section of
the city feel that they are being neg
lected and that some action must be
taken by them if they are to receive
the proper recognition.

WHO IS TO BLAME FOR FAULTY
STATE BUILDING PLANS?

TRENTON, Sept. 16.-Who was
responsible for all these faulty plans
Of state buildings?
This is the question being asked
all over the state following h pub
LEGATION yesterday of the report of
State Architect Alan B. Mills, in
which he showed faulty designs and
poor construction in numerous state
buildings was SO fragrant that some
structures may have to be torn down,
while others will have to be repaired
at large expense to the state. The
question was put up to Burdette G..
Lewis, head of the Department OF
Institutions and Agencies, under
which the state architects depart
ment now operates. Mr.. Lewis gave
the following information:
George s. Drew, of Bergen county,
who was assistant commission OF
charaties and corrections and state
charities and corrections and state
law, drew the plans for the hospital
at the state tuberculosis sanatorium
at Glen Gardner and which it is said
may have to be torn down. He also
made the plans for the hospital at
the women's reformatory at Clinton,
known as the Paddock Cottage. Both
these structures, however, were COM
Dleted unQer the QlreCllOn OIL fIdiCio
S. Bent, who succeeded Drew. Bent
was assistant in the architect de-
partment for several years. Accord
ing to Commissioner Lewis, Bent
continued the same design of build
ings as were made by Drew. This
was the flat type of roof with i'm
proper facilities for draining off the
water, resulting in. the walls becom-
ing soaked, causing them to deterio-
rate. 4,
Drew also planned the Vineland
Soldiers Home hospital, these plans
being accepted by Bent, that is Bent
passed fisally upon the construction
and certified to the payment for the
work by the state. Commissioners
Lewis states that $4,000 had to be
obtained from the last legislature to
repair this building. though it is only
a few years old. The contract was
completed in 1914 under the admin
istration of Joseph Byers, then state
commissioner of charities and r
rections. At the first meeting of the
board of managers of this institu-
ton after the completion of the hos
pital it was found the roof leaked.
