Delays and bungling in finishing street jobs connected with installation of sewers, water mains, electricity and trolley tracks have been unearthed by The Eagle in an investigation of street conditions in the boro, which was brought about by complaints received from motorists and Chorus Made Up of Ministers Gives Song Service at Church Write and Tell The Eagle Your Street Complaint The Eagle is endeavoring to find out: 1.

Why do contractors disregard the rights and convenience of business and private traffic? 4.

Why is there no logical coordination between the street destruction activities of the B. M. Brooklyn Edison, Sewer and Water Departments, 5.

BROOKLYN, N. V. KINGS CO. LAFAYETTE 6800 QUEENS CO. REPUBLIC 1600 T3 PLACES WALKER IN SMITH CABINET But Oyckman Doesn't Reward Mrs.

Willebrandt. Mayor Walker as Secretary of State and William J. Denny as Secretary of War were cited last night as exemplifying Governor Smith's Cabinet, if he is elected, in an address by former Assemblyman Emory F. Dyckman, speaking in the nightly series of "Hoover Minute Man" talks over Radio Station H. Dyckman considered as "only a remote probability'' Governor Smith's promise that he "will fill the office with efficiency," declaring "it is reasonable to assume that Governor Smith will have to select his staff largely from the National Committee and from city and State supporters." "Hoover, on the contrary, will cause many feet to be removed from desks in government departments," Dyckman said, reviewing his administrative career and knowledge of Washington policies.

He offered no predictions as to the makeup of the Hoover Cabinet, but later, when questioned as to the possibility of Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt's sitting there, declared "he did not think so." BISHOPS SANCTION NEW PRAYER BOOK London, Sept. 29 OP) The second (1928) revision of the Book of Common Prayer which was rejected by the House of Commons and thus refused sanction of the State may be used under certain circumstances, the House of Bishops of the Church of England has ruled. The bishops have left to the people of the various churches the decision as to whether they will use the 1928 revision or the old prayer book of 1002. The archbishops of Canterbury and Ycrk today made public a statement saying the use of such additions to and deviations from the 1662 prayer book as fall within the limits of the 1928 revision could not be regarded as "inconsistent with loyalty to the principles of the Church." Any other deviation, however, were frowned upon.

In the Boro Hall section suiih extensive and diverse repair jobs have been going on that business has been delayed and serious inconvenience has resulted for the great wholesale, retail and manufacturing houses whose cars must thread their way through the labyrinth of detour signs, over ripped tracks, down one-way streets and across mud puddles. Conditions in the downtown section, always difficult on account of the confusion trolleys, parksd motorcars and crowds of pedestrians, hare been made worse by unnecessary waste of time in finishing street work. Retail Merchants Suffer. Retail merchants have suffered and lost business through having piles of granite blocks and rotting railway ties stacked on the sidewalks in front of their Concrete on sidewalks appears to have been destroyed by piles of rocks, ties and debris being allowed to rest on the walks ordinarily reserved for pedestrians. The work has proceeded with no apparent attempt to force contractors to consider the rights of pedestrians, merchants and motorists, and with little or no effort to make them firflsh their work as rapidly as possible on Important streets.

Business men On Adams st. have complained freely to The Eagle about the losses they have suffered through tne B. M. T. track and paving work, which has been spread over six blocks for several weeks, instead of being rushed through on one block at a time.

Post Office trucks carrying important mails to every person in the boro have been forced to put up with these conditions on Adams st. The work is stretched out all the way from Fulton to Concord and has been going on for nearly two months, according to business men on the street. Apparently without the least thought, of inconvenience to those using the streets in the downtown section, work on a water main on Johnson an intersecting highway, was begun, while the ripping up of Adams st. also was in progress. Adding to the general Confusion around Boro Hall, the B.

People can't get is and can't get out. They could close one block at a time and finish it, but they don't. I've lost definite customers, and could give you their names.

Charles Esposito, manager of the Boro Hall Barber Shop, at 325 Adams street: "We've lost about $40 a week, because all the Insurance men used to park their cars in front, and come to get their hair cut, and now they can't." i William Brown, manager of the Borden's Dairy Lunch, at 338 Adams "We've dropped 50 percent of our business.

Whalen was given another "Job" when Mayor Walker sent him to investigate the repeated requests of the heads of Chambers of Commerce of the city for a hearing on the proposed World's Fair to be held In Few York in 1932 as a 200th Washington Birthday Memorial. When Mr. Whalen appeared at a meeting at the Advertising Club, 23 Park of which he is a member, he was unanimously elected chairman of committee to wait on Mayor Walker with ideas regarding the proposed memorial. On the committee with Mr. Whalen are Ralph Jonas, president of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, and Congressman Sol it was announced yesterday by Hugo Seesel-berg of the.

Flatbush Chamber of Commerce. All three of the men have been working for a permanent Washington Memorial to be erected at a 20Oth anniversary celebration. It had been proposed that the memorial take the form of a World Market In the city, preferably In Marine Park, on Jamaica Bay, which, after an opening fair, would remain a perpetual business center for the entire world. Other ideas also have been presented. Whalen Gives His View.

Mr. Whalen said he would expedite the completion of the committee to consider Ihe matter. "It's a matter that should interest the entire city," he said, "and not only one boro or two. Whether the 200th anniversary of Washington will be celebrated with the erection of a World Market or in any other way will be decided when the committee and Mayor Walker talk it over." At the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce the fact that a committee was to be appointed brought forth the fact that that organization was still strongly in favor of a lair in Marine Park and that the chamber com mittee for the project was still active.
