The japprobriation was cut from $210,000 jto $110,000 by the Senate appropria- tions committee and the Senate. | Mr. Sweet said that at a meeting of { the association he was directed to file {a protest with Senator Ball for the i following reasons: s “Recently the federal government, | through the Agriculture Department, turned over to the Commissioners of {the District of Columbia a large quan- tity of road-building machinery and equipment, aggregating in value about §300,000, for the purpose, main- 1y, of constructing roads of this char- acter. The deterioration of this ma- chinery and equipment by non-use | would' probably be greater in_value | than the saving proposed by the re- | duction of the appropriation re- | ferred to. “The $110.000 appropriation will | construct only a part of this roadway, | leaving the balance in its present con- dition, | { “The amount of money required to | jmaintain the remaining portion of | { this Foadway will probably exceed the | cost of a complete and permanent | pavement and would be a useless | waste of government funds. | “The street rallway poles now ir the center of this stretch of roadway | are in process of removal and to re- | build this highway at the same time | would be most advantageous _ “This road is the only direct route | into the National Capital from the north and should favorably compare with the roadway maintained by the state of Maryland adjoining it at the District line. ! dlll. 402-404 Seventh St. Next Door to Special Sale of Jaunty Jacquettes The new smart short Coat, in handsome Fur-fabric— Gray, Black and Gray trim- med with Black—lined with excellent quality - Silk—and with decorative metal buckle. —but the value is easily $25 All-Wool Sweaters Slip-on mod- els in the new block weave- ing.
