As & straight business proposition, they declare, the proposed subway would yield returns that would more than Justify the necessary outlay. Dr. Louis A. Dreyfus, President of the Staten Island Civic League and one of the leading business men of Richmond County, told The Evening World to-day of the great opportun- ity for home bullding and commerctal expansion that Staten Island offers if its one obstacle—inaccessibiity—is re= moved. “An extension of the subway sys- tem to Staten Island,” he said, “would | Put @ population of 2,000,000 here in ten years, It is not necessary to point Did your Child wake up Cross or Feverish?

Think of the yield to the city tn increased valuations of property and the opening up of a | virgin fleld to the establishment of thriving business and home centres within the city.” TUBE TO MANHATTAN, WITH STOP AT BEDLOE’S ISLAND. Dr. Dreyfus favors a direct tunnel | to Manhattan, with a stop at Bedloe’s jIsland, rather than the generally dis- | cussed tunnel to Bay Ridge which would connect with the Fourth Ave- | nue subway. But he would welcome y route obtainable that would end ten Island's present isolation from the rest of the city, He pointed out that New Jersey has already per- fected plans for a tunnel from Bay~ onne to Staten Island that would ul- timately link up the island with the Jersey tube system. It would be re- | garded as unfortunate if the trade) and travel of the island were ¢hus | shifted outside the aity. | The leading citizens of Richmond County, headed by Borough President Van Name, are organizing to press home their claims to the Board of Estimate, whose vote of funds is all that is needed now to besin the pre- liminary work, as the City Admin- | istration sympathizes with the sub- way plans and the Public Service Coinmission is ready. | Some of the leaders in the agitation for the subway are William G. Will- cox, former President of the Board of Education; A. 8. a member of the Bourd of Educa Dr. Dreyfus, Louis Tribus, Presi Staten Chamber of 6 Ba Bridgman, President of the Staten Island Savings Bank; John D, Pearson, sident of the American Linoleum Company; William S.

Moody, cashier of the Port Richmond Na- tional Bank. PARTY LINES GO; ALL STATEN ISLAND ROOTERS NOW. It is expected that these men and veral other citizens will be ap-| pointed a general committee to push the campaign at a joint meeting of pay the Staten Island Chamber of Com- merce and the Staten Island Civic league that will held in the Richmond County Court House next Friday evening. Among other things, the political influence of the island will be wield- | ed to advance the project. All party | lines have been forgotten, and the islanders are determined to vote only for officials who help the subway plan. This ts expected to cut consid- erable figure, especially with the votes of the newly enfranchised women. “The city should either give us the subway we need in common justice or let us separate," said Borough President Van Name to-day. “The City of Staten Island if it were re- leased from being a part of New York City, would readily furnish its own tube conn ions, As it is, it is the only borough that has not received one bit of tranait benefits in more than ten years, although it has paid a sbare of all the improvemengs made in the other boroughs. “If a man owns a house on Staten Island, assessed, say at $5,000, he pays the same Lax as the owner of @ house with the same valuation in Brooklyn or the Bronx, where they have ample transportation. We will not stop un- tl we have remedied this. “It is to New York's interest to make the improvement we ask. For one thing, Staten Island offers miles of the finest deep water docking fa 4 anywhere. The cilities to be found only thing that st ds in the way of full advant taken of this ts the inability of business men to get here conveniently “If proper development were made business of the South and West could be handled direct with great ships Staten Island. ‘This would obviate the heavy Mehterage carrying the ross which frequently al as the entire railroad cost of transport ing the goods to far off destinations in the interior.” _ GOV.
