PAG MIGHT. € STREET PAVING IS DISCUSSED | BY COMMISSION: Main Street Property Holders Want Thoroughfare’s Pav- ing Extended FEDERAL AID PROJECT Main street business men and resi- dents asked the city commission to pave Main street, from Washington avenue west to the intersection of t evening.

The road from the intersection of Broad- way and Main streets to the new Bismarck-Mandan bridge would be a new road, passing under the North- ern Pacific tracks. The land on which the federal aid road to the bridge would be con- structed has been donated by Capt: 1. P. Baker, according to Mr. Corwin, eliminating this expense in road con- struction. Make a Federal Project “Monday the state highway com- mission passed on their petition and recommended that this road be made a Federal project. Main street froin Washington west to Broadway cannot be improved with Federal aid be- cause the houses are less than 400 feet apart. ‘We feel that Main street shou!d be paved, so that tourists could take their choice of the roads.. The Red Trail runs along Main street and this; street has always had the bulk of traffic. If you pave a street up by the capitol and leave Main street unpaved the traffic will go there. “We Main street merchants, natu- rally, desire to keep our normal traf- fic. To do this we feel that the three blocks from Washington Avenue to Broadway should be paved. The present contractor has material here and it could probably be done cheap- er now than to wait and ship in a new bunch of paving machinery.” “The proposed road plans and es- timates have been made,” said Frayne Baker, continuing the presen- tation for Main street merchants. “The viaduct under the railroad tracks would be about 500 feet wast of Washington avenue .

The city commission took no ac- tion. During the discussion the high cost of paving was pointed out. Un- ‘der a federal road plan, it was said, the city would pay half the cost. Mayor Lucas explained that the as- sessment for.paving which would have to be charged against the property holders on the north of Main street would, in some cases run higher than the value of the lots.

Just a few minutes ago-the writer went into a haberdash- ery shop in the Strand. “Do you want your shirts cut Eng- lish fashion or, American?” asked the fitter. “Why, what’ the atfrerence?” he was asked. “You see, an.

But he would have none of those kind of shirts. “Why,” said he, “I can’t reach the back of my neck tv put the button in.” “You dont have to,” said the fitter “put it in before you put your shirt on.” That made the Britisher angry. “I won't doit,” he said. “I always put my collar buttons in after. my shirt is on my back.
