FARMS SEEN HELPING PROVIDE ,3 50,000 Boro Bridge Improvement Proiect to Be Comoleted This Year WORK AFTER WAR Terminals, El Tracks Razed In Program A survey by the Nassau-Suffolk Committee for Economic Development, an organization of businessmen, shows that although postwar employment on Long Island will be 300 percent greater than in the prew'ar period, 16,000 people will find themselves without their present jobs and agriculture will have to take up the slack, G. A.

Steig-mann, secretary of the committee and president of the Columbia Air craft Corp. of Valley Stream, an nounced today. 1.... a 3A 'Jt ijr 'zyxSK Him tj jZ. Extensive irrigation systems to prevent the recurrence of this yar's destructive drought, which has al ready cost a good portion of Long Island's potajo and cauliflower crop, will be necc.ary to assure maintenance of peak production and employment, Halsey W.

Knapp, di rector of the State Institute of Agriculture at Farmingdale, recommended in the report. The Brooklyn Bridge Improvement project is nearing completion and before the end of the year the venerable span will take a new lease on life, Its outmoded features discarded to make way for the changes that progress Inevitably demands. Part of the general program to revamp New York's transit equipment, the Brooklyn Bridge refurbishing will cost $1,350,000. The work includes demolition of the terminals at each end of the bridge, tearing down the bridge approaches and knocking down the old El tracks and framework. The job Is charged against the J943 capital budget to the tune of $1,092,600, but materials purchased by the city and storage fees and other Incidental expenses bring the total to the larger figure.

Project Planned in 1940 Planning for the project began in 1940 and In November of last year the contract was awarded to E. W. Foley, which bid $699,286.09. According to William H. Stuart, section field engineer, the city was able to save considerable by doing Its own buying in the case of many high priority materials.

Thus, the greater part of the Foley contract price is for labor alone. Great attention has been paid to the use of materials vital to the war effort. Mr. Stuart reported that IP A meeting between Knapp and other leading agriculturists is to be held shortly by the C. E.

D. for a discussion of postwar plans for Nassau and Suffolk farming, Steirj-mann said. "The development of airport facilities on Long Lsland and the use of air cargo ships will make it possible for rapid distribution of many of Long Island's farm prod-lurts with probably especial advantage to Long Island duck farms," Eajle Staff phcto MAKING WAY FOR PROGRESS The ancient train shed at the Brooklyn end of the Brooklyn Bridge is nearly gone, only the sides of the steel structure remaining. In the background, visible for the first time from Borough Hall, is the Gair Building, and behind it is one of the Manhattan Bridge towers. more copper has been turned In as Steigmann asserted.

The need for three times as many farmers as are now at work on the island was stressed by Albert Warner of Riverhead. He asserted that opportunities exist for the development of dehydrating plants in Suffolk to avoid the necessity of shipping Long Island farm products to be processed. "The need for greater development of Nassau-Suffolk farms can very well supply the need of our war veterans for out-of-door work and individual ownership of their MAYOR SCORES U. S.
