No Early Action On NewkTraffic Light • \ ' Even though the city\has passed an ordinance approving the erection of a signal light at Monroe and Fiffth streets —with the approval of the state highway commission -r-It seems a good six months may go by before a signal may see the light pt day on that comer. , Mayor John Doan said today that results of the council action on the ordinance have been forwarded to the state highway cCmmlssioh but he doubts whether plans and \ specifications will be sent down before three months at least, due to the customary delays. After the plans come back from Indianapolis they must go to the board iof works where items will be ordered. After that it’s the power and light departmeht’s job.
