Commissioner Oyster said foday that he is opposed to erecting the proposed municipal trash plant within the lim- its of the city proper. It became known today that in ask- ing for an appropriation for a refuse disposal plant the city heads did not specify in their estimates a site for o the structure. / Capital Shoe Findings Co.; Officials of the engineer depart- Union Shoe Findings Co. ment of the District government are _837 F St. N.w. 3219 M St. N-W. |} ,nqérstood to favor placing the plant on one of the vacant tracts abutting Ball-bearing, Union Hard- ware Skates. i 500 Pairs—Boys' or Girls the railroad tracks in the vicinity of 18t street and Florida avenue north- east. . Engineers Favor City Site. Their reason for desiring to place the trash incinerator so close to the heart of the city is to reduce the cost =~ |of hauling the trash to the plant and | opinion that a trash plant, like the garbage disposal works, should be to eliminate the necessity for hauling salvaged paper and bottles to a freight depot for shipment. Commissioner - Oyster voiced the 0 "I ide the city limits. ‘e must not lose sight of the fact Washington is growing rapid- ly,” said Capt. Oyster. “In building such a plant as this we should look ahead. Whatever smoke would arise from the incinerator, if located in the city proper, would not be as objec- tionable as the very name of the plant would be on a site near resi- dences.” Inspects Private Plant. Commissioner Oyster went with En- gineer Commissioner Kuts yesterday afternoon to inspect the privately owned refuse plant near Mount Olivet road in the Trinidad section, which the Commissioners have just leased for two vears. While that plant is approximately a mile beyond the site on Florida ave- nue, even there the plant has proved objectionable to surrounding resi- dents, who have been waging a cam- paign for nearly two years to have it removed. Citizens in the vicinity of 1st street and Florida avenue have been equally active in seeking to prevent the mov- ing of the plant from Trinidad to their section, which is much closer to the heart of the city. Owners Refuse to Sell. ‘The owners of square 710, near 1st street and Florida avenue, the one suggested for the trash plant, have expressed to the Commissioners their unwillingness to sell the ground for ithe erection of a trash plant.
