BRIDGE AFFAIR CONTAINS GERM OF COMING ERA

Dr. Harold at Mass Meeting

Outlines Need for Non

Partisan Organization to

Protect People.! ir.V:

second call; ISSUED

Forty representative Business men met at the Baxter school last night

and discussed the Main street bridge

proposition and discussed the good road movement as advanced by the

Old Trail association. It was decided

that another meeting be held next Friday night at the west end of the Main street bridge, weather permitting, and that a band be hired to attract a crowd. Dr. I. S. Harold opened last night's session, saying that he had been requested by a number of residents of the West Side to call a meeting of the citizens of that section for the purpose of IJscussing the bridge problem, as they were the people most affected by the closing of the. present Structure. "Everybody Is Interested in the closing of the bridge," said the doctor, "but . there was some doubt In the minds of many whether the closing of it at once was not a mistake. However, I don't think there is anyone present who would take the responsibility of opening itMight Mean Catastrophe. "If opened, a catastrophe might occur. The bridge is closed to stay and I think it a wise move." Dr. Harold was selected as chairman. Prof. Hatt, of Purdue university, who has been called here by the city and county officials to go over the bridge, was called upon. Prof. Hatt spoke at some length on the value of technical advice in such matters as are now confronting Richmond, and told how the people of Lafayette had overcome their bridge

problem. "What type of bridge is needed in Richmond is an engineering consideration and a matter that should be taken up with experts. 'Safety first' is the first consideration and the erection of a new bridge as soon as possible is of paramount importance." Following Prof. Hatt, Dr. Harold

eaia: i "If it is patched up we have a.

patched bridge, and it would cost ap-j proximately $30,000. The bridge is;fjK

too narrow ana we neea a structure!

that will last for coming generations

The Doran street bridge is being weakened by the heavy traffic that is now going over It, and If some relief

is not secured for it soon, we may have another bridge to buy." . Build Bridge on Level. J. M. Hutchinson said that he would like to ask Prof. Hatt if he considered It of importance whether the new bridge proposed is built on an incline or on the level. Prof. Hatt said there Is no reason why the bridge should not be built to grade if the situation and surroundings will permit it. G. R. Cause uses the Doran street bridge frequently and stated that it Is a common occurrence nowadays to 3nd it overcrowded and that the closing of the Main street structure was causing great inconvenience. The closing of the Main street bridge was the proper thing to do, he thought, because he deemed it unsafe and he favored the immediate erection of a new bridge. Richard Sedgwick expressed himself as favoring a new bridge, but thought that if the present one could be fixed up it would be a wise thing to do. He spoke of the prospect of the United States government building the proposed National highway from the Atlantic to the Pacific and said that if this was done Uncle Sam n'ight build the bridge. He suggested that when the new bridge is built r.o cars be allowed to run over it and that, if the traction company wanted to cross the river that they should build a bridge of their own. Favors Level Structure. Thomas Hubbard asked how many were in favor of having the new bridse built on the level. The vote was unanimously in favor of the proposition. Dr. Wampler expressed some doubt about the advisability of building the bridge on the level, but stated that he for one did not enjoy the fifty-two foot climb necessary in crossing it. "The people of Wayne county boss! Wayne county, ' was the statement

made by the chairman at this point, "and we should have some organization to look after these matters of public interest. Wayne county needs a non-partisan organization. We have

been going up and down bill over that old bridge for twenty rears and we

are tired of It.

-we don't want to build a new bridge with its nose In the ground and Its tall in the air. It should be built

on the level." Gluya Raises Question.

" Whether It would be best to build the bridge on the level or on a grade was doubtful In the mind of Howard Gluys, and he thought that the best

way ' to - solve that problem was by calling In such men as Prof. Hatt. J. B. Unthank said that he wanted to go on record as being in favor of a bridge built on a. level. - :

C. B. Hunt brought up the question of the C. A O . bridge and said that

if : the bridge is built on the level that some provision would have to be made for it. : - The Old Trails' association will have charge of the next mass meeting, and the following committee , was named to arrange for the gathering: T. C. Hubbard, Richard Sedgwick, J. B. Unthank, George Matthews and P. L. Waidele.
