Proposed Protest Meeting of Business
Men's Association
Deferred
Assured that the work of repavlng Chest
nut street will proceed with as little delay
as possible, the Chestnut Street Business
Men's Association will withhold Its proposed
protest to city officials.
For two weeks business men In Chestnut
street have been protesting against the delay
of Senator McNIchol's contracting firm, and
In order to rati action lh huiilnmM men
called a meeting of the association directors
for tomorrow noon.
, Today the highway department notified
the association ofllclals that there would be
no further delay, and that the tie-up Is due
to the Inability of the contractors to obtain
wood paving blocks. A big consignment of
the blocks arrived today, and highway offi
cials promised that the work would be
pushed rapidly.
Because of the difficulty In obtaining ma.
terlals, the work has been delayed more
than two weeks. Business men have suf
fered losses because of the condition of the'
street, but feel that war conditions ore re
sponsible and will accept their losses with
good, grace.

arations against it. Also, and these are
important factors, to our specialization in
furniture and furnishings and our inexpen
sive, yet prominent and easily accessible
location. With more and more of our ar
tisans leaving the workshops for the camp
and with the growing diversion of our lum
ber output to shipbuilding and military
purposes, it is inevitable that furniture
must advance and continue to advance.
Therefore, we urge upon our patrons,
upon all who have or expect to have a'

taking to the full, the unequalled advan
