Somebody had a lapse of memory several weeks ago when the com mon cftuncli approved a request of the to lay a double track street car line on erndale avenue At least such a lapse was apparent Tuesday when the finance committee of the common council was inform ed that the car tracks would prac tically blockade the street for ve hicle travel and that It would cost45800 to widen the street suffi ciently to acconynodate traffic Alder Oscar A Rtopelle made the request that the street ba widened He said that the double tracks now being laid between Springwells and Woodmere avenues would leave a space of only four feet between the outer rails and the curbing not suf ficient to permit a vehicle to pass tho cars have been rout ed differently so that one track would have been on erndale and tho other on another he was asked "I believe they eould have but it was not Mr Rlopolle re plied There Is no money appropriated In the new budget for this wofk and there is only $100000 In the contingent fund just about double the amount required The commit tee postponed action a week hoping that the general road fund will re turn an unexpected balance suffi cient to finance the widening Other
