sumo: QUESTION.
The communication below from J.
Bolden ilurlbutt. Earp, we earnestly
commend to every re’nderot The Ben
tinel After reading about it, think
it over: ,
To the Editor of The Sentinel:
I am pleased to see that you have
awakened to a realization of the in
sane scheme oi making the mud flats
south of Seavlew avenue and Wafling- '
ton street bridge and north of the
bridge to the railroad a park. So gl-
gautic an absurdity was never before
presented to a people. yet it is so ar-H
ranged in connection with the bridge
that people saw the bridge and did not,
consider the park project. and voted
for it. little dreaming what it meant.
The people did not realize what is
a fact. that to fill in the proposed park
area would cost the town at least
$500,000 over and above any filling
that ‘would be derived from any goverum
inept excavating. The lowest bridge
bid is, i am told. $167, 000. and en-
glneers‘ and lnspectors' pay. temper:
ary bridge and incidentals. and you
will have an expense nearly $200,000.
The removal of the buildings and pay-
ing damages, $200,000. Filling in and
retaining walls. $500,000. making $900.
000. at four per cent. $36,000. You
also lose the present assessment tax.
at least $1.000 more, to the town. and
81.000 to the City of South Norwalk.
This will add two and one-fourth mills
to your taxes each year. This burden
wage, earners cannot stand and ought
not to be called on to stand tor the
simple purpose of removing the build-
lngs along the bridge.
«To carry out. the park project would
fill in in front of more than two-thirds
of the arches. making at least 335.000
’to $40,000 absolute waste. To remove
the buildings would. destroy nearly
0100. 000 taxable property. destroy
business and throw out of work 100
or there employer. which is another
lots! to cit. toys. . ‘
it is said. new». new that as soon
. as thaililiildibgp are out. of the Way
l they will hell the peril land. and their
ddnbii‘e Wk project. In other words.
park is only a pretext to 'lget rid
oi the buildings. That the park is a
pr'etbiit midget boss has is conclu-
dysii evidenped by the fact thin the

.000 worth of bonds. which after

schoolboyu' Play Feet.
The High School contest was anoth-
er hot gains. Harrison High school
was the visiting mention and they
could play fast he ketbuli. The home
team had Captain lrelsiid in the game
again and he s‘nowad up in his usual
good form. excepting for his basket
throwing. Dick is usually the “accur-
ate kid" at the basket business. but
he missed many last night that should
have meant points for Norwalk High:
The game was it good one from the
start Noiwalk was first to score. but
liurrison kept busy with the result
_ {that intermission came with Norwnik
liiitli leading. 15 to 10.
‘ The players warmed up to it still
fbetter in the last half and had then
audience worked up to it high state‘
lot excitement at the close. llarilsou‘;
made 2i to the home students' 17 for
this half. but Not walk lasted long
self
Who wantii this? If. as it would
seem. the park is it'pretexl by which‘
property will be taken from the own-
ers and sold. who will profit by it? is
the pretext of a park to get rid of the
buildings solely or to get the property
into other bands? Has the town he
honor? The bridge is to be severely
plain. not an obleci of beauty. Would
it not be better to spend some oi this
money to locate factories new livery
factory employing 100 bands is worth
a dozen parks toward building up the
town. Bridgeport is the best evidence
of this. ’
