Columbia ave. is a broad street and would help show off the kind-'of a public building which I understand they intend to build." Imbro L'rbancic. who has always

the park. "I m out of business now," he says, "but I have a little money myself, j and if the school board hasn't enough to buy that rlace I know I can go out and : raise the $3.00" for them in a little while. I live south of Morton ave., but'
I don t think they should put a house in my part of tow n. It ought to be nearer the center. If they put a nice school
building up there on Highland and Columbia it would be worth a million ' dollars to th city in no time." J Edgar Shookman. who is in charge of the new houses in the Lyndora addition! for the United States Housing Corpora- j tion, spoke for over 200 families when I he said, "There is no question about it. j the school building should be north of 1 Morton ave. The folks in this part of . town shouldn't stand for anything else. This property on Columbia and facing! the park would be an ideal location fori a school and if. as reported, it will cost)
$3.fftO more than the one south of those old company houses, it is certainly worth the difference."

moveu since o ciock Minoav morninc and the city is confronted w th indefinite duration of the str.k because of a deadlock between the city council, the mayor and the Detroit United Hail way company on the Question of fares. The rity stands pat on a f.ve cent
fare with universal transfers, the j street railway demands a five cent ' fare on all lines and one cent for transfers and the street car workers de-
man 1-2 to 3i 1-2 cents an hour increase in wages. The peculiar feature of the strike is that the company refuses to make a fight against the strikers and will not attempt to run cars until the city permits the advance In fares the company demands. Xo disorder has occurred and little is feared. Business down town is at a stand still and manufacturing industrise are badly cr'ppled. although every kind of vehicle Is in service carrying workers to their places of employment. Attorney Oeneral Groesbeck. acting on behalf of the people of a large section of the stkte. announced this morning that he would apply to the courts
j for an order to compel the Detroit 1 United Ttailwayi to run its city cars
and enjoining" it from permitting its interurban l'nei' to come, to a standstill. Mayor Couiens has mad no move towards a settlement as yet bnt w-111 make recommendations to a special meeting of the c.ty council this morning for action in the situation, but wouldn't say what these recommendations would be. Asked if they would include any concession to the Detroit United, he replied emphatically, "Posit, vely no."

NEW SCHOOL SITE WORRIES E. HAMMOND Continued from race one mines the sentiment of the people of East Hari.mond. then the new school building must be built between Morton ave. and Highland St.. and as close to Columbia ave. as possible. This is indisputably the center and would accommodate every end of East Hammond alike. "The only objection of th Hoard of Education is that it takes too much money, and if it is to be built on Columbia ave. it will be too close to the car line. The site in Bunnell's addition remains out of the question as the people, would start a revolution if tt wa3 bought. . ' "The next place is somewhere thrf5 blocks or more south of Morton ave. This is almost the south end of East Hammond as it stands today, and very little improvement as a residential district is expected, as much of the land has been reserved for factory sites. However. It means $3.Co less and maybe not that. o it is left to the board to decide if this small difference in money equals the difference in value between this place and a centrally located one. HOPES BOARD WILL CONSIDER. "We appreciate the fact that since Dr. Smith jtot on the board, a vigorous effort has been made to obtain a school site, but we hope that the board will not overlook the advantages of a site equally accessible to all the children of th? community. My choice would be tht vacant strip between Morris ave. and Highland t. on Columbia. This property is about 3P0 feet square and would provide plenty n' room for the huildinc and play prounds. Then the children could also play in May wood Prk. which is just across Highland St. to the north of the property." The site susested by ilr. Kkufakiss
