There were about in attenda in- cluding vis! from the Capital, officials and men and were made by Arthur Orr, chairman of the good roads commission; J.

Mr. Orr's address was in the na- ture of a complete report of the de- liberations of the road commission. He spoke in glowing term# of the character and ability of the men as- sociated with him in working out the plan ' The taxes for the new roads r > levied over the entire distric he said, “and the problem confront: ing the commission was to arrive at & plan which would result as nearly as possible in an equitable distribu- tion of the benefits.

Two Plans for Outlet. To give Highland Park this out- let, he said, the commission had the choice of two plans—Garrison road extended or Brown's Bend road. The former was fayored by the commis- sion, he said, because it would cost less and provided a 50-foot right of way, as compared with a 30-foot ©of way on the Brown's Bend ros Another important point in f of the Garrison road, it was pointed out by Mr. Ball, is that it will form a connecting link with the new Memorial Bridge, get an immense amount of the tourist traffic from the Lee Highway, where it joins that roadway at Falls Church, and be of great benefit to Ballston and Claren- don, through which it runs. In a summary of the “meaning of a road,” Dr. McKay said that it is more than a strip of concrete, macadam or clay; it means a great deal to edu- ation in that it affords a m of Relief I P mn every JAr " Soothing and Healing Donit be left out of things because of a bad skin.

He said the Bridge Commission would co-operate with all communities on work inci- dental to the new bridge, providing it could do so without sacrificing the great principal for which the struc- ture was conceived. He said that Ar- lington County was more intimately affected by the establishment of the bridge than any other section of the country. Supervisor 4 assured the ads would be built by contract and under the joint su- n of the State and county engineers, Capt. Talman told the meeting that he had been assured by financiers of the District of Columbia that the pro- posed improvements would bring im- ense capital into the county. He id that in addition to the aid of the ate in construction of the roads, the county could depend on the co-opera- tion of the Federal Bureau of Public Roads.
