Southern California Metropr
olis May Level Bunker Hill
in Midst of Downtown
Section if Funds Avail.
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 22 Imagine
dirt, enough to solidly fill 14 city
blocks 100 feet high, being moveu
out of town on street cars.
That Is whut Los Angeles Is pre
paring to do If It adopts a S27,
000,000 plan to remove "Uuimer
Hill," a lurge mound rearing lis
crest 111 the downtown district.
A hindrance to traffic and the
growth of the commercial seotlon 01
Los Angeles, Bunker Hill festered so
long that citizens persuaded the
city council and the county super
visors to remove tills canker.
Trimming 30 lllucks
The huse task of slicing off 30
blocks of territory and regradlng
it to provide an approximate level
Willi the surrounding district at first
seemed to be all luipoa.ilble one, but
with aid of modern engineering
equipment It wat found feasible, pro
vided the project could be financed.
All that tho city fathers of Los
Angeles are waiting for now Is a
financial Croesus who can suggest a
plan whereby a bond Issue which
would place Los Angeles' bonded in
debtedness beyond all lawful limits
can be avoided. One proposal has
been made that trust certificates or
some other form of security not
carrying an obligation of fixed debt
service be adopted.
Because the task was adjudged to
be too great for prlvute enterprise,
It has been recommended that pub
llo funds and public supervision be
used' 111 the demolition.
There are 43 actual city blocks
occupied by the hill: of these 30 are
to be regraded Is plans are carried
out. At the highest point Bunker
Hill Is 140 feet high. '
Excavation Nniullest 4'ost
Although the excavation of the'
8.800.000 cublo yards of dirt Is esti
mated to cost only 4.67B,O0O. tne
Initial expense ot acquiring the ter
ritory Is high, being estimated at
t22.333.632.
However, since only the lower
half of the hill Is ot any Immedi
ate use, It Is planned to purchase
It for $14,082,628 and remodel that
section first.
At present 29 per cent of this
Is covered by office buildings, Id
per cent by stores, 14 per cent by
hotels, 10 per oent by lofts, 7 pef
cent by department slores, 6 per
cent by garogos end parking sta
tions, the remainder by miscella
neous enterprises.
Blnce It is Just north of the heart
of the business district, It values
are somewhat aftecied hy property
values there, statisticians who com
piled the figures declared.
Should Los Angeles attempt this
project It will be following In the
steps of Beattle, Wash., Milwaukee.
Wis., and other cities lhat have
found It necessary to change their
natural contours to make way for
natural growth.

However, most bills likely will

Is to get farm land, livestock, crops

tho federal reserve board as accept

The federal reserve system now
accepts only "liquid" assota as farm
