CONGRESS TO BE ASKED TO PROVIDE $25,000 Structure Expected to Cost From $3,000,000 to $10,000,000. War Halted Project. President Hara‘ng has directed the transmission to Congress of an esti- mate of $25,000 for preparation of plans for the Arlington memorial bridge, to span the Potomac river be- tween the Lincoln Memorial and Ar- lington. As chairman of the Arlington me- morial commission, created by Con- gress in 1913, the President, it was learned today, believes this greatest of all national memorial projects, which s to be the connecting link between north and south and the symbol of a united nation, should be unched during the coming year. He has instructed Col. Clarence O. Sherrill. officer in charge of public buildings and grounds, who is the ex- ocutive officer of the memorial conr mission, to transmit the estimate for preparation of plans at the time the | regular administrative budgets are sent to Congress in December. ’ Appro Expected. There is every probability the esti- mate Will be approved. The members of the commission, in addition to the President. are the Vice President, the Spouker of the House of Representa- and the chairmen of the public buildings and grounds committees of the Senate and House.

Congress is pledged. to provide the money that will be necessary for the preparation of plans, as the act of 1913, creating the commission, au- thorized an expenditure of $25,000 for this purpose. The actual propria- tion of this money, however, never has been requested. The commission headed by the v Fresident is S one, i1 is sald. has been- authorized by Congress to direct the building of a national memorial. The bridge is intended to surpass all memorials, according to Col.

Isauc Gans was selected today by Chief Justice McCoy as foreman of the grand jury, which will investi- gate law violations in the District for the ensuing three months. The court advised the grand jurors te make careful inquiry into ‘the evi- dence submitted to them and caution- ed them to not place the smirch which an indictment gives, upon the character of any one unless the facts are strong enough to warrant such action. - The court referred to the inquiry into the alleged doubtful practices among _certain professional bonds- men only in general terms. It told the new jury that the re- tiring grand jury had reported a “matler” as incompleted and sug- gested that the United States. attor- ney would probably bring it to their attention. He also advised them of their right to conduct independent in- quiries as for instance into the con- duct of penal institutions withbut the suggestion of the United States at- torney.
