Urges City to Discuss

Buying of Approach J

B DEL B. DAVI8. As the new Main street bridge nears

completion, its outlines and propor

tions Indicate that it will be one of the best built built and most beautiful bridges in this part of the country. It will be a monument to the city and the pride of the citiens for many years to come. Nevertheless the maintenance of the present buildings at the west end of the bridge will destroy its ultimate beauty and utility at this point. A meeting will be held at the board of works on Thursday, Nov. 6. at 9 a. m., at which time the matter will be discussed. All citiens are invited to attend. There are at the west end, three

buildings, one of which is used as a

garage and machine shop. This garage building is so close to the bridge that the entrance into the garage will come on the bridge proper. The presence of this garage, where

automobiles will always be backing in

and out. will endanger the traffic and

pedestrians passing on tho bridge. Al

so the customary parking or venicies

in front of tho garage will tend to cause a congestion of traffic there and the liability of accidents will be

ereatly Increased.

The ground at the west end of the

bridge has been often suggested as a eite where an adequate and appropriate approach to the new concrete

structure could be made. It has been thought by many that the bridge would be incomplete without an adequate approach to It. The city already owns considerable ground along the river bank, which with this additional ground purchased now, it will complete a most fitting approach. The acquisition of the ground now would no doubt save considerable sum to the city in the future. For logically this space should be used for the purpose of widening the approach to the bridge; thereby eliminating the liability of accidents there. If this ground is not acquired now it may be at some future time. The saving that would be made by making the purchase now is dut to the fact that the value of the property here will soon increase after the bridge is completed and from the improvements whic hthe owner of the garage contemplates making, namely. Installing a new heating plant and building a brick front to the building. If these improvements are permitted to be made the city will have to pay for them when they acquire the property later.

PROHIBITION WAS BLUNDER GOMPERS

NEW YORK, Nov. 5. Foisting of prohibition on the United States was

a blunder charged with danger and loaded with disastrous probabilities declared Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, in discussing last night its probable relation to unrest among workingmen in some parts of the country. "By adopting prohibition," he said, "we have chanced the wrecking of the social and economic fabric of the nation. We have invaded the habits of the working men and .this is what has happened: "We have upset that man; unsettled him. Uprooting one habit uproots others." Gompers asserted the man who formerly was satisfied to go home at night to converse and read, has become discontented and restive. He now goes into the streets to meet other men restless and unsettled like himself, he declared. "They rub together their mutual grievances and there are sparks and sometimes fire. I believe Bolshevism in Russia began in prohibition."
