Harrington reported that the arches of the South G street bridge should be shortened to lessen expenses of construction. This would prevent the " same forms from being used for both bridges. Could Save Much Money. "An enormous amount of. money could be saved by waiting a couple of years until our unnatural prosperity passes over. Moreover, I cannot sec that an emergency exists for the immediate erection Tjf a south side bridge. I am sorry for the sake of "the South Side Improvement association that i cannot vote 'yes.' " Five of the seven votes of the the county council are all that are necessary to pass an appropriation in an emergency session. The passing of the appropriation for the Main street bridge ends one of the most spirited citizen's controversies in the history of Wayne county. The present bridge was condemned in July, 1915. First there was much agitation to open it for traffic. Then came a, body of men who wanted a level bridge built. Several thousands of dollars have been spent in investigations to determine the best type of bridge. Appropriations for the Main and South G street bridges were rejected at the annual session of the council in September. sure
