HUNTINGTON-rAV SUBWAY CHANGE ri 1 i Favored by El Trustees and Transit Board The Boston Elevated trustees and the Boston Transit Commission, according to Mayor Curley, are in agreement on the revised route of the proposed Hunt-ington-av Subway. On Nov 9, Mayor Curley will confer with the directors of the Elevated. If they also agree to the revised plan, the Mayor on the following day will present it to the Metropolitan District Council for approval. Under the revised plan the Subway will be built from Copley sq to a point opposite Gainsboro st, at a cost of 14,800,000, instead of the' original plan of construction at a cost of 88.750,000. The Mayor said that the revised plan will give work to 3000 veterans for a period of three years.

The plan calls for the removal of the tracks and reservation from Huntington av, of tracks from Boylston st and of 10-foot strips from sidewalks on both sides of Boylston st from Arlingtoii st to Copley sq. In the opinion of the Mayor this will give Boston the finest boulevard into the heart of the city, with the exception of Commonwealth av. Chairman Harximans Statement Chairman Henry I. Harrlman of the Elevated- Railway trustees today issued the following statement: The public trustees or the Boston Elevated Railway favor the construction of the Huntington-av Subway under a modified plan proposed by them, whereby the expenditure for construction will be limited to a section of the Subway from Gainsboro st to Boyl-ston st, reducing cost to $4,800,000. This proposed Subway would start at Gainsboro st and follow under Huntington to Boylston st at Copley sq.

The course of the Subway under the plan authorized oy Legislative act would have cost 8,750,000, so that the modified plan will mean a saving of practically $4000,000 in construction costs as well, as interest charges, which at 414 percent would represent $180,000 a year. The present Subway at Boylston and Park sts has ample capacity and facility for all the trolleys which would use the new Huntington-av Subway. The saving on construction and interest charges is so great that the trustees believe In the adoption of the modified plan and not the original plan. Until such time as the transit facilities require training we believe that the expenditure of $4,800,000 will give the same service to the traveling public as tha $8,750,000 plan would. If no further extension of this Subway is required for 10 years, the total savings in interest charges would be $1,.

800,000. Furthermore, no part of this construction work proposed by the trustees need be eliminated when the time comes for the completion of route of which this is a part. v'eV Including 1. Refitting 2. Relining 3.
