the Washington street bridge,
dock and the city dump.
When this is completed a suction
pumper will “0 put in operation on
the channel side of the dock. and,
according to John McMahon. head
of the Bridge commission. about
30.000 cubic feet of mud will be
pumped from the harbor to the area
c-ncloscd by the bulkhead. This will
fill the corner of the proposal park
section. and dredge out the chan-
nel to a depth of approximately ten
feet up to the city pier.
When built in 1022-23. the deck
was not provided with any entrance
or passageway to shore except the
dumping road through the marsh.
And except at high tide boats can-
not fio at the pier or use it for
landing. The construction has been,
therefore. practically useless. By
the pumping operations. boats will
be able to tie at the dock at low
tide in safety. and the channel just
south of the Washington street
bridge will be considerably widened.
'l‘iie erection of the dock. and. the
Washington street bridge with the
adjoining park were all provided
for by the original Hill committee
in 1911. when the. Washington
street bridge was begun. The plans
for the pier as stipulated in the
legislative grant for boud~lssue stat-
ed that the town was “authorized
to Improve the park and build and
the
min a pleasure pier on the
ide of the channel. and to
;.. .lc access thereto from the
bridge.”
The town signified by vote on
Sept. ii. 1911, that it desired both
a concrete draw-bridge and a park.
The park was defined as all the
property “bounded by the main
channel of Norwalk on the west.
Cross channel on the south. Greg-‘
ory's channel on the east. Sea-
view avenue from the tidbmili to
the Washington street bridge. and
hence along the bridge to the west
line of the Haffner property . . ."
The creatiiig of the park. by dump-
ing. has raised opposition which has
found more recent expression in an
injunction against the city on be-
half of Dr. Franklyn K. Brown.
Robert Joseloff and Howard
Lowndes. Previous filling in has
been done near residential sections.
where a nuisance has resulted. The
proposed filling is nearly halfway
between South and East Norwalk.
where. objectionnl features of dredg-
liig will not. bother residents of ei-
ther shore. When the pumping
operations really begin. the area
behind the cribbing will be filled
quickly. and H, real start toward
shaping the park to conform with
the original plans will be made.

REMAIN GRIN
Joseph Davis. North Main street
clofhicr and haberdasher. takes ex-
ception to the statement made in last
night's Evening Sentinel. to the effect
that some merchants are not going
Into the Wednesday afternoon sum-
mer closing program. because they
cannot afford to close.
Mr. Davis says that this is cer-
tulnly not his reason. lie thinks a
retail merchant owes the community
in which he makes his living some-
thing in the way of service, and clos~
lug ti. half day each week is not the
rixlit kind of service. according to
him.
For nearly fifteen years Mr. Davis
states he. has given his sales force
a half-day holiday once a week durr
lng June. July and August. without
closing his store to the community.
The clerks arrange among them-
selves which half day they wish to
lake. 0
"in your editorial on Monday."
said Mr. Davis. “you state that a ‘mit-
jority of the merchants' had agreed
to close." and in the article on tile
front page you state that more than
‘50 agrcc' to close. If you take time
to count your stores in the two cen-
ters of .‘Ioi‘wulk. you will find that
there are about 350 stores in all.
"This does not include many of
”it: smaller shops. So you will see
that 50 is far from a majority. My
store will continue to serve the com-
muniify with the sort of service it is
entitled to receive by remaining open
Wednesday afternoons."
