ASK RELIEF IN CAR TRANSFERS South Side Citizens Visit Board of Public Works in Rerouting Plea. Eebuildlm of streot car tracks and rerouting of south side car lines so they will either run on Washington street downtown or touch other lines in such a way that it will be unnecessary for south side people to walk a block or more to transfer to some of the other lines will be discussed by the board of public works with Dr. Henry Jameson, president of the board of directors of the Indianapolis Street Railway Company, Friday morning. The board asked Dr. Jameson today to attend the conference. The bonrd desires the tracks 1n Delaware street, from Massachusetts avenue to Washington street, and in West Washington street, from Belmont to Harris avenues, rebuilt. The West Washington street Improvement was ordered early last summer, but the street railway company did not comply and the board never took the sters necessary under the company's franchise to force it to comply. DELEGATIONS WAIT ON BOARD. A delegation of south side women, led by Robert I. Sloan, president of the Southastern Improvement Asoclatlon and Belt Elevation League of the South Side, and Mrs. Martin Refffel, president of the Original South ''Side Women’s Club, appeared beofre the board and asked that the south side car lines he re-routed downtown. The board asked Mr. Sloan to put re routing plans he has in miaa on paper nnd submit them so they may be discussed with Dr. Jameson Friday morning. The women In the delegation were very insistent that they get relief from the necessity of walking a block or two between cars downtown. One of them had a copy of the Declaration of Independence and read therefrom to show the board that the south side was entitled to better treatment. Several women representing the Brightwood Civic Association asked that something be done to make street crossings in the suburb passable. The board informed the delegation that it intends to get after the Brlghtwood streets as soon as the open weather season arrives and equipment can he moved. The delegation •was told thht Brlghtwood never will have (Satisfactory streets until they are paved, since the character of the clay subsoil is such that gravel sinks out of sight a few months after it is put on the unimproved highways. Harry 31. Sloan, 304S Newton avenue wrote a letter to the bonrd complaining about the condition of Newton avenue. “It is an outrage that we have to endure such conditions," he wrote. "The city administration should be ashamed to admit that there are such streets in the city." A request that something be done to improve the impassable condition of Singleton street, between Raymond and I. streets was received from Harry J. Sue.-s, 21-1 Singleton street. PROVIDE FOR ALLEY OPENING. Declaratory resolutions for the opening of the first alley west of Harding street from Solis avenue to a point 170 feet north nnd of the first alley south of Georgia street from East to Cook streets were adopted. After appearing before the board of works Mr. Sloan and the south side women called on James 11. Lowry, superintendent of parks. The women wished to know what had become of the proposed shelter house at Garfield Park. Mr. I owrv informed then! that the park board has been unable to sell bonds for the improvement but expects to get them sold within a very short time. Some action in this direction may be taken by the park board this week, he indicated.
