Bailey Pledges Help to Davis On New Bridge
Ernest L Bailey state road commissioner and South Side resident promised cooperation of the state road department and assistance of fig personnel to Davis the Democratic mayoral candidate for a new South Side bridge. He offered the commission engineers to avoid paying a six percent commission to Colonel C P Fortney. Davis spoke after Bailey and pledged his support for either a municipal grant or state grant to finance the bridge. The meeting at Fernbank school South Hills centered on building a new structure, with opposition to a full bridge or bond issue. The present bridge, Bailey said, is unsafe for rising traffic and may not remain adequate much longer. The article notes the president's public works bill and rehabilitation funds before continuation in Part 2.
