REBUILDING Of

One of Cables Supporting

Have Stretched.
BY International New. Service.

NEW YORK, July 2S.- Grover
A. whalen, Commissioner Of plants

Hylan today announced his inten'
ton Of recommending a special
meeting of the board Of estimates.
to consider the question Of rebuild
ing Brooklyn Bridge and the con-
struction of another bridge be-
tween Manhattan and Brooklyn.
At the same time the revelation
was made that one Of the great ca
bles supporting Brooklyn bridge
had stretched, weakening a span.
This explained why all but horse
drawn vehicles were barred from
the runways.
Commissioner Whalen said mum.
cipal engineers have pronounced
the bridge safe, but strongly rec
ommends against overburdening the
structure.
Brooklyn bridge will be forty
years old in 1928. During the space
OF it's existence 1t has carried a
burden for which 1t was never in
tended.

Sharp Letter From Michigan

LANSING, Mich, July '2S.-
Emergency action today, not leg
islation at some future time, is
required to avert serious results
in the coal and rail strike situa-
ton in Michigan, Governor Groes-
back told President Harding in
a sharp letter today.
Considered Rebulxe.
He was replying to the Presl.
dents letter in which Mr.. Harding
disclaimed authority to take sum-
mary action for relief Of famine
stricken districts.
"I do not know Of any means OF
settling II under the legal authority
which Is possessed by either State
or Federal Government" the Presi-
dent declared.
"Manifestly, legislation must be
provided, and I mean to submit the
whole problem to Congress at the
earliest consistent time possible after
the House reassembles."
IT do not know whether you have
the persuasive power to effect
voluntary arrangement In Michigan.

but think 1t is fair to assume that
you could not enforce such an ar.
rangement."
Following is Governor Groesbeck's
letter to President Harding:
Dear Mr.. President:
Your statement Of the reason Of
the present coal strike, namely, that
district or State settlements will not
be allowed, Is undoubtedly correct
and in line with representations
that have been made to US. There
being no dispute over wages or
working conditions, It seems q pity
that the public must be made to sui.
fer without any justification what
ever.
you will pardon me for taking
the position that the national Gov
ernment has the power and author
ity to protect our citizens from the
embarrassing situation that faces
US. do not see how we can con-
cede that such power does not exist.
I am writing frankly because the
people are becoming imnatient Of
further delay in the adoption Of
measures that will spell an early
end Of the matter.
Sincerely yours,
