Plans Far Away

Belt Railroad engineers are work
ing on bridge plans. Cassidy said,
but may not complete the project for
many months because of the diff
Guilty OF the task.
With flood prevention under con.
sideradon since 1914, Cassidy said
the Belt Railroad officials should
have taken steps long ago leading
toward preparation of bridge plans,
which, he said, was logically the
duty Of the Belt company, and not
within the province of the flood pre-
vention department.
Program of flood prevention de-
partment could be definitely an
nounced within a few weeks if the
bridge matter was settled, Cassidy
said.
Plans include elimination of a
bend Of White River between Moore
and Raymond Sts., containing about
one hundred acres. New bridges,
costing about $4,000 each, would be
built at Morris and Raymond Sts.,
I'm addition to the $1,500,00 Belt
Railroad bridge near Raymond st.
Levee Mile Long
A levee is to be built along the en-
tire east bank between the streets
indicated, distance Of amout one
mile. Surrounding the levee will
|. be roadwa thirty feet wide. Levee
&KRnw on the west bank would be ex-
I ded. A concrete wall will be con-
structed along property of Indian
apolis Abattoir Company.
Width of White River would be in
creased from $50 to $50 feet and
average depth from seventeen to
thirty-three feet. Engineers have
estimated depth of twenty-nine feet
under proposed width would carry
off as heavy a flood as that which
occurred in 1913, thus allowing a
safety margin of four feet.
City would pay As, county As, and
owners of property inundated in 1913
flood 10 per cent of costs Of project,
under terms Of the flood prevention
law,

Says $4,000, 900 Program
to Keep River in Banks
Depends Upon Raising
i Belt Railroad Bridge

Future steps in the 100000
flood revention rogram for Indian
aolis await agreement by city, board
OF works and the Belt Railroad in re-
gard to sharing cost of $1,50o,009
bridge to be built across White
River near Raymond ST.. II. w. Cas-
sadly, flood prevention engineer said
today.
Flood prevention department is
interested in track elevation project
only in SO far as it affects construc-
ton of the bridge" Cassidy said.
until agreement has been
reached, we are unable to complete
our plans"
Flood prevention department is
proceeding on the theory that bridge
must be built twenty-three feet high
err to allow for track elevation. Ex-
penses of elevation of tracks near
Y Aoposed bridge and increase in
&8dth Of bridge to hold five instead
of three tracks are not chargeable
to food prevention budget, in Cas-
sadys opinion.

IL they prefer, receive on any OF
the official days. Informations il
included as to the proper number
Of cards to leave and the correct
way in which they should be en-
graVed.
Correct forms OF invitations are II.
Illustrated, with information as to
the proper way OF accepting and
declining.
Fine Point OF Etiquette
And apropos of invitations here's
a fine point OF etiquette which I
never knew before. In sending out
an invitation from a Senator to q
Senator, IL should be worCed ''Mr.
and Mrs. Pepper"-for exam le--
Mrs. Borah's presence" whereas the
reply should read Mr.. and Mrs.
Borah accept with pleasure Senator
and Mrs. Peppers invitation"
Proper names are never used for
the Senate yet with members Of
Congress, the full name Is written.
Proper forms OF speaking of and
| to members of the Cabinet, diplo-
mats, etc., are explained. And It
may be Of interest in this connec.
ton to call attention to the fact
that it is incorrect to speak OF 1.-THE
charge d'affaires OF the British en-
| bassy" or "the charge d'affaires of
the legation Of Norway" The proper
form Is the charge d'affaires of
Great Britain" I mention this be-
cause it is a blunder which a great
many people make and a form
which frequently appears in print.
