HEADS ASK IMPROVED ROADWAY AT OCCOQUAN | Ask Congress for Authority to Co-| operate With Virginia on Res- ervation Thoroughfare. The District Commissioners. in letter received by Chairman Zihiman of the House District committee to day urged the passage of a bill pro- viding for the grading and maint nance of the Virginia State highw: through the District Workhouse and Reformatory reservation at Occoquan, | Va. The object of this bill is to authoize | the District Commissioners to wo- >perate with the highway commission of Virginia in the grading incident to the construction _and that part of the Virginia 2 ¢ that will pass through the Dis- trict reservation at Occoquan and the cost of maintaining the road to be charged to the District appropria- tion act for the repair of roads at that institution. The bill also provides that the loca tion of the State highway through Occoquan reservation shall be subject to_the approval of the Commissioners. rhe Commissioners explained that no specific appropriation of District revenues will be required in connec- tion with the grading or maintenance of the road through the reservation. The recommendation follows exten- sive conferences with the Virginia State highway authoroties.
