"In nrjy humble opinion., the fore- shore Ifr also subject to the public light of 'landings or whatever im provements is necessary therefor either enforced upon the occupant under wharf right, or else constructed by the public, and without any com pensation for the soil. However, am not raising this last point now. At the earn I time It show how the collat eral question of bulkheads and , fills, authority, therefor and burden of costs miy be disposed of. I " think the port commission. ; on whom seems to be thrown th author. ity and responsibility of the state. would itecognUe their duty in this matter. If they were correctly advised by the counsel for the state, and might even be brought 'to locating harbor Unas tht would set off reserve areas for futuk-e slips and piers, as has been qone in otner ports.

They expressed contempt for him who re cites statistics Uke a chamber of com merce bulletin; they . announced they were not interested In base commer cialism. What they wanted was a view of the social side of .life and to learn what the city had to offer by way of club : buildings, comfortable homes, works, of art, both public and private, and the like.
