FOR TRAFFIC RELIEF
INTHEATRE DISTRICT
Broadway Ass'n Submits Flan
to Police to Prevent Jam of
Vehicles Each Night.
ONE-WAY STREET JPEA
Major Opdycko Proposes Three
Ways to End Congestion - ,
Urges Signal Stations. -
New traffic regulations designed .to
cope with tho nUhtly jam of vehicle.
In the theatre district have- been aub;
milted by the' traffic committee oftho
Broadway Association to the police
Department. The plan proposed, which
has for Its chief "feature tho Idea of
regarding Broadway and Seventh nve.
nue, between Thirty-ninth and Forty,
eighth streets, as one street. was
worked out by Major Henry O. Op-
Ldycke, managing director or the asso
ciation.
Within the district included IwlWecn
Sixth arid Eighth avenues and "Thirty-
ninth and Forty-eighth streets are
situated more than sixty of tho leading
theatres" and motion picture houses and
scorer of hotels.
Aside from tho congestion which nat
urally result In this vicinity In the
evening, Major Opdycko points out, the
difficulty Is Increased by the fact that
Seventh avenue and Broadway are each
100 feet wide and converge like a fun
nel at about Forty-fifth street, where
they cross each other, At this point
the wholo traffic, under tha present
system, becomes confined to a roadway
of less than 100 feet In width. Greater
confusion Is caused by the fact that at
this, point ajso the Broadway and Sev
enth venue aurface,car tracks In
tersect .
This Is what Major. Opdycke proposes:
Flrst-To treat Broadway and Seventh
avenue as one street from Forty-eighth
street on the north to Thlrty-nlnU
street on, the south.
Second-Between the hours of I'M and
IlpO In the evening to compel alljBouth
bound traffic from Forty-eighth street
in- follow tho west side of Broadway to
'its intersection with Seyenth avenue at
Forty-fifth street, tnence io iowo
Peventh avenue south to Thirty-ninth
street. All northbound traffc between
the same hours would be confined to
the west side1 of Broadwny from Thirty
ninth street forth to Iti Intersection
with Seventh avenue,, tnence up -sev
enth nvenue to Forty-eignm sireoi.
Third-All cross streets from Thlrty-
jilnth street to Forty-eighth street to be
one-way streets. otri-cw u mc cum
side of Broadway and Seventh avenue
would be confined to rastbound traffic
only between 71 and 9:3), In the eve
ning and to westbound traffic only be
tween 9:30 nd 11:50.
All streets wet of Broadway and Sev
enth nvenue to be devoted to westbound
traffic only between 7:30 and 9:30 and
to eastbound traffic, only between' :
and 11:20. $
The only exceptions to these rules
would be at Forty-second street and
Seventh avenue, where the street would
be 'a two-way thoroughfare , east and
. one-way street between Oeventh nd
Eighth avenues, confined to westbound
traffic only. Also Thirty-ninth ond
Fortieth street Would be one-way
streets from Eighth avenue, west to
Sixth avenue, confined to eastbound
traffic only, In order to take care of the
great Metropolitan Opera House traffic.
Major Oydycke would have signal sta
tions similar to those now In use on
Fifth avenue Installed to regulate crosa
town and through traffic.

There waa talk of a "biff politician

to have been invoked. There were ad
missions by Furcy that one John J.

THE "Largest Candy Store in the World! was none too large to accommodate
the candy lovers who attended our Birthday Party on Saturday, From the
moment the doors opened the great place was thronged and this despite the rain.
In fact we were fairly overwhelmed by
the crush, and, in consequence, we fear many
of our friends did not receive the service to
which they were properly entitled.
But, apparently, generous allowance was
made for the occasion. Wc heard nothing but
kind words especially about the candy. This
was particularly gratifying, for in the end
it's the candy that counts. The store might
be ever so attractive, the service ever so ood5
but unless the candy was righttT-right in qual
ityright in price, we would get nowhere.
We had tried sincerely to make good our
promise that we would offer New York
nothing But candy of the highest quality
better candy for the money than, had ever
been seen before in this city or elsewhere. But
"trying and -succeeding are different things.
Only the public could, tell us whether we had
succeeded. And the public told us in a man
ner most gratifying. Therefore again, we
thank you, and most heartily.
We promise to make This Wek as memorable
' as our Opening Day
Every day we will offer three numbers taken from our regular list, as "Get Acquainted
Specials," at prices that should bring us a visit from everyone who loves fine confections. x
