And every station on the line #hould have been finished last June at the latest. As it is, all the stations are not even yet completed. So far as the Broadway line in Manhattan is concerned, it ie practi- cally completed from the Battery to Fourteenth Street. Above Union Square to Forty-second Btreet, at which point it strikes off up Seventh Avenue to Sixtieth Street, where a tunnel will carry it under the East River to North Jane Street, Queens, there are many sections which are only balf completed, others three- quarters and still others two-thirds. ‘The reason assigned for the delay in the Broadway line was the long time it took for a decision whether to make Times Square a local or ex- ress station, which was months at Roast, and the necessity of construct- ing & great trunk sewer to replace the one displaced in Seventh Avenue. This is now building thro Forty- sixth Street to the North River. The Public Service Commission undertook BY at Saks in New York, Marshall Field & Com- pany, Chicago, Makers.

The contractors have until Fob. 8, 1919, to complete this tunnel and the work in Queens, and it was said that in all probability thie would dons on time. But even this, it was pointed out, will not save the many monthe already lost through the weakness of Bridge, because the line #hould have been completed in time te be opened to the publio in July, 1918.

According to the Public Service Commission there are two different phases to the question of delay. First, the lapse of time before the contracts | were let for construction, and, second, | the unexpected delays which arose | after the contracts were let. In the second phase are tie-ups in the steel mills and lumber camps in which there were contracta for material; labor difficulties and freight em- bargoes placed by the roads by rea- won of the war in Durope. Practically all of the ties for use in the subways were contracted for exorbitant rates charged for freight- age, and the impossibility of getting preted in th vault para tweat on yn in the strike.
