OPERATES ON "PAPER . STREETS"
"We have been operating for years on
'paper streets created through the
raising of land by our own efforts in
filling in land." said Spencer, "and all
that was involved. ? we understood, was
the vacation of these streets so that a
grreater terminal might be developed. '
"The. future development of the city
as to viaducts and the widening of
Front street should not be a factor in
these negotiations, : for if they are, it
would seem to . me, we will be don
fronted byian impasse."
Other interests urged that the city's
rights for i overhead crossings and the
opening of cross streets to Front street
be fully conserved in connection with
the granting of . any street vacations,
and in behalf of' the Traction and Im
plement Dealers' association, the Kast
Side Business Men's club presented an
appeal for a proper development of
terminals on the east side of the river
