Illumination items: By the lighting and illumination committee: Artificial lighting competes with daylight

A novel lighting installation was recently made under a bridge of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad in Providence, R. I. A street extends a considerable distance under this bridge with the result that it appears very dary dark to the automobilists in going from the brightly sunlighted street to the darkened street beneath the bridge; then again on leaving the darkened area under the bridge and coming out into sunlight, the drivers were blinded, creating extreme discomfort and endangering the safety of the public.
