Including strong letters of recom- mendation from Chalrman Rudolph of the Board of District Commission- ers and Secretary of War Weeks to Chairman Reed of the House District committee urging the passage of the bill to extend 14:h street, a favorable committee report on this measure was made to the House today by Repre- sentative Frederick N. Zihlman of Maryland, acting chairman of the committee. Representative Zihlman emphasized | that this legislation had been declared | by Gen. Lord, director of the budget. to be not in conflict with the financial program of the President, and that it s in the form recommended by the highway commission. He called! particular attention to a statement by Secretary Weeks that it “provides the most equitable solution of a problem which has a very important bearing on the future development of the District of Columbia as well as the Walter Reed Hospltal.” Fentures of Bill The Zihlman report points out that the bill provides for the closing of all streets and alleys within the Walter Reed Hospital reservation except| 14th street, these inclading 13th street, 15th stree Dahlla stree i Dogwood street and Elder street. provides for the widening and open- | ing of 14th street through they Brounds of the reservation in accord- ance with the plan prepared by the office_of the chief of engineers of the United States Army. By this plan it is provided that 14th street shall extend through.that part of the reservation on which the Medical Department of the United States Army plans to build a medical officers’ school, student officers’ quarters, a library and a museum, which group of bulldings has been designated by the surgeon general of the Army as the “Army medical center.” Tt is not proposed to extend 14th street through that portion of the | reservation used for hospital wards jor purposes, the wards, under the| premanent pladf of the surgeon gen- eral, being placed much closer to orgia avenue than to the proposed extension of 14th street. Commissioners’ Letter. The bill also provides that the ex- tension of 1ith street shall be sub- Ject the approval of the Secretary of War. Favorable consideration by C’}'ngruss is accordingly recommend- e It In forwarding the draft of the bill to Chairman Reed the Commissioners ipointed out that they have “no ob- {jection to the closing of any of the streets and alleys included within the area, with the exception of 14th | street.” Thiy statement was made bec; e of the statement that closing of certain streets within Walter Reed Hospital reservation is nec ary in order to provide for gdditional build- { and extension to the hospital. ! Relative to the widening of other strects mentioned above, the Commissioners pointed out that a igeneral law authorized them to in- stitute condemnation proceedings in uccordance with the highway plan Lxpenses in this case are assessed as | benefits to property holders. In this | case, the Commissioners | point out, extension of some of the streets will involve destruction of a number of dwellings, and the Com- missioners beli it would be in- ivqullahle to open “these streets under he general authority anted them, nd that the community as a whole whould bear part of the cost.” Is Vital Legisiation, Concluding, the Commissioners wrote: “There is no District legislation now pending that is of more vital impor- tance to the development of the northern part of the District than the bill submitted. This part of the Dis- trict and the adjacent communities in the state of Maryland are opening very rapldly, and with the normal growth of motor tradsportation de- velopment of 14th street as an addi- tional arterlal highway feading into the District of Columbia from t north will be necessary to relieve traffic conditions on Georgla avenue, Alaska avenue and 16th stree Indication of the 50-50 procedure ! between the District und federal go { ernmentsiin this matter is shown | another = paragraph in - Secretary { Weeks' letter which points out that ! ulthough certain streets have alrcady been opened up and improved by the § District within the area which has been acquired for the extension of the hospital reservation, the bill pro- i poses the vacation and 'abandonment of such streets and will benefit the hospital by giving it complete con- trol and use of the land now included ! within those streets.. The District{ sets 14th street extended and Walter | Reed Hospital gets the land needed for buildings without having the! obstacle of Improved streets as a barrier. D. C.
