Toll Bridges
Proving Profitable

Maryland's two toll bridges, the
SusQuehanna River Bridge at Harve
de Grace and the Potomac River
Bridge at Morgantown, have produc-
ed such good revenues since they
were opened by the State that bond
holders are going to have their in
vestments liquidated, 1t has been an
nounced by William A. Codd, Chief
Auditor of the State Roads Commits
sion.
Revenues have so far exceeded es-
Inmates that the Commission has
decided to call in the $6,00O,0OO in
bridge revenue bonds sold last year,
and to issue new bonds at lower
rate of interest.
The refunding bonds will be sold
to the bidder offering to purchase
them at the lowest interest rate to
the State, the interest in no event to
exceed three per cent. Present bonds
pay three and three-quarters per
cent.
Figures released by Mr.. Codd
show that the Susquehanna Bridge
took in $68, 643.22 in April in $685.
258 toll transactions, as compared
with $49,314.08 in March toll trans
actions. Since it was opened August
2Sth, the Susquehanna Bridge has
produced more than enough revenue
to pay the debt service on both
bridges.
The Potomac Bridge produced
81, O73.5O in April from 1913
transactions, compared with $7,15S-
80 in March from 7,441 toll trans
actions.
Both bridges earned gross rev.
enue of $462,968.11 as of April 30.
