' Will make accessible by rapid transit one of Brooklyn's | most attractive residential sections. | ‘Will increase the assessed valuation of Brooklyn property How any Brooklynite can bear to see Fulton Street darkened and @obased by more overhead tracks and girders is difficult to understand. In another generation elevated railroads in city streets will be barbar- us anechronisms. Subways have established themselves as the only Bivilized means of rapid transit in a crowded metropolis.

PPOSITION to new bus routes in Manhattan, as it developed at hearings before the Franchise Committee of the Board of Estimate, put up no convincing arguments. Residents of Park Avenue, Seventy-seventh and Seventy-ninth Streets said bus lines on these thoroughfares would ruin them as residential streets, Buses have been running the entire length of Filth Avenue, as far as One Hundred and Tenth Street, for several Years. Residential sections of Fifth Avenue have escaped “ruin.” The Chairman of the City Club's Transit Committee pronounced bus operation the most dangerous form of transportation for a crowd- ed city. Yet how many bus accidents occu tion to the mileage covered? The Mayor is right, however, in his determination to sound public sentiment thoroughly before letting new franchises.
