14 GREINER COMES OUT FOR STATE STREET BRIDGE Designer of Walnut Street Viaduct Says Only Thing to Do Is Join With State J. E. Greiner. the noted bridge de signer, who made the plans for the proposed bridge over the railroad at North street, yesterday heartily en dorsed the plan for a monumental structure to be built jointly by the state and the city at State street, extending from the Capitol exten sion to a point at or very near Thir teenth street, thus carrying the Cap itol Park boulevard, eighty feet wide, over the railroad to the very doors of the people' on the Hill. Mr. Greiner's announcement came after he had gone carefully over the whole situation in company with George A. Shreiner, Superintendent of Public Grounds and Buildings, and Arnold W. Brunner, architect in charge of the Capitol extension de velopment. Very Enthusiastic When Mr. Greiner drew his plans for a commercial bridge at North street the proposed monumental structure at State street was not in prospect. But he would not give his recommendation for a change of lo cation without a visit to the city, and yesterday he and Mr. Brunner came here for this special purpose. After going over the situation very care fully, he decided that it would be both wise and economical for the city to join with the state for the bigger 4 bridge, which will serve all the pur poses of the proposed structure at North street and will be much bet ter in many respects, besides being in full keeping with the Capitol Park development, in which he believes all Harrisburgers should co-operate. Mr. Brunner himself was more de lighted than ever with the State street proposal and Mr. Greiner was engaged immediately to prepare ten tative plans for the State street structure. This will be done as soon as possible in order that the Board of Public Grounds and Buildings will have ample opportunity to study them and get ready to have the Legisla ture appropriate the necessary money, which there is little question that it will do. Mr.< Greiner, after the survey, said that the only thing for Harrisburg to do is to discard the old plans and transfer its bridge fund to the State street project in order that it may be gotten under way as soon as pos sible. The city has authorized the ex penditure of $300,000 for a bridge at Walnut street, but under present prices, even though the state gave its consent, this would not be sufficient for the purpose, but this sum added to the much larger sum to be ap propriated by the state will pay for the kind of a bridge which Mr. Brun ner proposes, which will be one of the tinest in the whole world. Food Administration Shows Much Accomplished in Year A tabulated report of the results ob tained by the first year's activities of the National Food Administration was made public by Donald McCormick, County Food Administrator, this morning. Since July 1. 1918. 120.000.000 bush els of wheat have been exported. The normal surplus for that period would be 20.000.Out) bushels. One hundred millions bushels were therefore saved by conservation. Beef was exported at the rate of 77,000.000 pounds monthly. The nor mal amount exported is 2.000.000 pounds monthly, showing the results of the national conservation program. Pork was exported at the rate of) 308.000.000 pounds per month. The ordinary rate is 50,000.000 pounds monthly. Prices have also been affected. Flour was reduced from the price of $16.75 per barrel (Minneapolis), which prevailed a year ago. to the present price of $9.80 per barrel.
