The building of such ! a bridge is considered practical by many of the leading men of the city; However, there are a few who think' that it could.be placed higher up or further down the river and still serve all purposes. , Mr. W.. MacMillan, Jr., chairman of the-special bridge committee of the Chamber of Commerce, is strong in the belief that a ferry at that point would never prove satisfactory, as it is necessary to provide a ready means of access to the west side of theriver if that side is to be built up. He aid ed that the center of business would ;still be on the east side as it is to day, regardlessof what might develop across the Cape Fear.
