The subcommittee ordered a vorable report on .the Zihlman bill providing for the condemnation of land for the opening, extension, widen ing and straightening of streets, ave nues, roads or highways, in accord ance with the plan of the permanent highway system for the District. Com missioner Rudolph, by letter, had ad i the committee that this was a important measure. A favorable report to the full com mittee also was ordered on a Zihiman bill, which carries changes in punc tuation and slight changes in phrase ology in the zoning law. Melvin C. Hazen, the District sur vevor, advised with th® subcommittee on the measures providing general condemnation authority and for the widéning of Harvard street.
