‘ ARLINGTON BRIDGE CHANGES ORDERED Architects to Revise Plans for Approaches to Memo- rial Structure. Architects of the Arlington Me- morial Bridge will be directed imme- diately to revise their plans by a re- study of the terminals on both side: f the river to include changes sug- gested in the approaches of both the hington and Virginia ends of th bridge by the Commission of Fine Arts. Lieut. Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, execu- tive officer of the Arlington Memo- yial Bridge Commission, said toda he would immediately communicate with the bridge architects in_his of- fice and with the firm of McKim, Mead & White, the contract archi: tects, requesting them to make an- other study of the east and west ap- proaches of the bridge to provide for placing the Virginia end of the struc- ture literally on the west bank the Potomac, and a treatment of B street northwest that will swing it in e continuous thoroughfare around the Lincoln Memorial to the eastern terminus of the Arlington Bridge. Water Gate Plans Unchanged. Plans for a water gate and landing at the east end of the bridge on the banks of the river immediately west of the Lincoln Memorial will remain unchanged. The changes suggested by mission and indorsed by Cdl. Grant have come in ample time, C¢l. Grant said, to avoid further delay nd fur- ther expense in preparation [of plans or in carrying them out. [In fact, Col. Grant said there may be|a slight saving in the entire cost of tije bridge by the suggested new treatment of the eastern and western apjjroaches. B street, under the suggegted new lan, will swing around the| Lincoln femorial to the eastern terminus of the bridge, and will join i with a roadway extending south info Poto- mac Park, of equally distinctive treatment. Col. Grant emphasized that the Potomac Park roadway must be as dignified as the roadway con- necting the bridge with B street. ‘Western Terminus Project. The re-study of the Western term- inus of the bridge on the Virginia side +is made necessary, the Fine Arts ¥ Commission said, by a plan [prepared in the office of the Secretary of War which will bring the lands of Arfing- ton National Cemetery “subsfantially down to the Potomac River. This will involve utilization of the|property now occupied by the expérimental farm of the Department of | Agricul- tur, and transfer of the farnj to some other point in or near Wakhington. From the Virginia end of the bridge a wide roadway, to be known as the Mount Vernon boulevard, [will run southward to the home of the First President, while the Lee ng‘i‘:«ay will start west from another terminus on Columbia Island connecting [with the bridge itself. B street is visualized in gested changes as a broad fare of the very highel throughout its entire cou the Capitol to the Lincoln flanked on both sides wi buildings, ‘“an opportunit even the treatment of Pen avenue does not afford.” Plans Under Way. In the meantime work aration for the construction of a water pate immediately north of the eastern terminus of _the bridge is going ahead in connection With con- struction of the piers in the river bed on the Washington side. The steps of the ‘water gate will form landing places for canoes and small boats, and piers at either end will be provided for larger craft. The east end of the bridge will be on a line approximating the center of the Mall. Treatment of the area be- tween the east end of the structure eand B street, which runs north of the Lincoln Memorial, is the area under discussion on the Washington side of the river. Col. Grant said the architects will be urged to make immediate studies of this portion of the bridge ap- proaches with the view of incorporat- ing the suggested changes in the finished composition. Copy of Commission Letter. 'The letter sent -to Col. Grant by the Fine Arts Commission follows: *“Dear Col. Grant: “Your letter of December 1, with reference to the Arlington Memorial Bridge, received careful consideration by the Commission of Fine Arts at their meeting on December 2, 1926. “The rapid increase in the number of interments at Arlington and the prospect that in the immediate future the national cemetery must be en- Jarged, has led the Secretary of War, in consultation with the Commission of Fire Arts, to make pians for tak- ing in the area formerly tncluded in the Arlington State and now occupied by the experimental farms of the Ag- ricultural Department. This area was allotted to the Agricultural Depart- ment by an act of Congress, but the obvious necessity of the enlargement of the cemetery and the manifest in- adequacy of the lands for the expand- ing needs of the Agricultural Depart- ment have led to the uniformal acqui- escence of all concerned in this en- largement of the cemetery. “The plan as prepared in the office of the Secre of War and ap- proved by him bringssthe lands of the cemetery substantially down to the Potomac River. This will necessitate & restudy of the terminals of the Me- morial Bridge on the Virginia side of the river. Obviously the time has come when that restudy should be- &in, and the Commission of Fine Art recommend that the architects of th Memorial Bridge be asked to make such a restudy of the Virginia termi- nals as shall adapt them to the pro. posed new conditions. In this con- nection the beginnings of both the Jee Highway and the Mount Vernon boulevard should be included. What the Law Provides. “Also, the act Memorial Bridge involves the tres ment of B street north from the Cap. itol grounds to the Potomac Rives The discussions in the Public Build- ings Commission indicate that it is the purpose of that commission to carry out the intention of Cong a8 expressed in the Memorial Bridg act, by creating a thoroughfare of the very ass throughout the entire > of B street from the Capitol to’'the Potomac. Here is the ne opportunity to treat hoth sides of and avenue with public bu opportunity wk the tr of Pennsylvani » does not ford. Obviously such extension of B street require sitable terminus at the Potomac, a_terminus recognizing the beginning of B street at the itol ftself. “The sketch plans for the Memoria] Bridge, as prepared in 1901 and shown on the plans reported to Con- gress by the Memorial Bridge Com mission, require a treatment of the waterfront from the Mcmorial Bridge 10 the westerly end of B streot. While the general plans have been made for such a treatment and the project has been virtually adopted, detailed studies have not been made. The Commission of Fine Arts, therefore, suggests that the awrchitects of the Memorial Bridge be directed to make dotailed plans for t! he com- the sug- horough- t class se from emorial, public which sylvania in prep- providing for as Dog Carries Note at By the Associated Press 5 LITTLE SQUAW, Alaska, Decem- ber 25 (Christmas day).—Carrying a scribbled note from two miners crip- pled by an explosion, one of them blinded, a Malamute dog crossed a 3,000-foot pass in the Brooks Mountain Range at night, with the mercury 40 degrees below zero, to his master’s cabin here.

Denatured Product Hit. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, December 28.—The death toll from Christmas liquor drinking in Greater New York today has risen to 23, with scores, perhaps more than 100, of persons under treat- nent in hospitals for alcoholism. In Chicago 7 deaths have been re- ported; in Detroit, 5; in Des Moines, 2; in Milwaukee, 3, and in Omaha, Dr. Charles G. Norris, New York City medical examiner, declares that axtensive chemical analyses would have to be made before it could be de- termined whether the deaths here were due to poisoned liquor or exces- sive drinking. U. S. Déclines Responsibility. The Government declines to accept any responsibility for any deaths due to drinking alcohol which passed through its hands. Federal agents in Washington declare that, although 2 per cent wood alcohol was placed in most of the fndustrial alcohol, this is not sufficient to cause death. Wash- ington officials indicate, however, that the prohibition unit will investigate closely the source of supply of the iquor that caused the deaths. Lincoln C. Andrews, head of the dry ‘orces, has announced in Washington that the Government expects to have ready by January 1 a new formula which will make the taste of alcohol so unpleasant that drinkers cannot swallow it. In New York Bellevue Hospital alone today had 79 persons, 14 of them women, in its alcoholic ward, and 10 alcoholic cases were reported at Kings “ounty Hospital, Brooklyn. Seven- teen of the 23 died in Manhattan, 5 in Brooklyn and 1 in Queens County. Views of Dry Administrator. “I am not surprised at the number of deaths from poisoned rum,” O. Mills, Federal prohibition adminis- trator for this district, said. “As we tighten up on withdrawals of spe- cially denatured alcohol and prevent diversion from that source, the boot- leggers turn to completely denatured alcohol for their supply. This stuff cannot be made drinkable, for the bootleggers’ chemists cannot get all the poisons out.” ‘The alcoholic death list for the en- tire holiday season in New York last year was only 18, and the number of cases in hospitals much lower than this year. Poorer quality of the liquor on the market was given as the cause. NO DEATHS IN COAST CITY. San Francisco Coroner, However, Hits Denatured Alcohol. SAN FRANCISCO, December 28 UP). —Although no deaths from poison liquor have been reported thus far since the holiday season began, Coro- ner T. B. W. Leland disclosed today that his records showed 28 persons have died here this yvear from that cause and that 200 other deaths in which poison liquor was the chief con- tributing factor had been reported during the 12 months. “For every death which is officiallv attributed to poison booze here you may safely calculate 10 times that many,” eaid Coroner Leland. He de- nounced the methods used by the Gov- ernment in denaturing alcohol and de clared the Government was to blame for the deaths. In all but 2 of the 28 cases denatured alcohol, and not wood alcohol, was held as the cause of death. Dr. C. B. McGettingan, president of the San Francisco Lunacy Commis- sion, joined Coroner Leland in de- nouncing denaturing methods and said he had observed hundreds of cases of insanity here in the last two years re- sulting from the use of alcohol dena- tured with violent poisons. el LEAVE $500,000 ESTATE. NEWARK, N. J., December 28 (#). —Annie Oakley, internationally fa- mous markswoman, and Frank E. Butler, her husband, both of whom dled within 18 days of each other in Ohio last month, left upward of $500,- 000 to relatives and charitable institu- tions under the provisions of their wills, filed here yesterday. The couple formerly lived in this city. Mrs. Butler's will provided for be- quests ranging from $1,000 to $3,000 to 26 relatives. The residuary estate went to her husband, who survived her for 18 days. He gave from $1,000 to $5,000 to each of eight immediate relatives and the residue of his wife's estate to her brother, sister and half- sister, to be divided equally. The residue of Butler's estate went to three nieces of his wife, the Potomac River between the Me- morial Bridge and the westerly end of B street, in accordance with the plan already outlined. Obviously these plans should be made by the same architcets who have designed the Memorial Bridge. because they are wssentlal portions of this structure.

Robinson Files Petition for Mandamus, Applied to Tire and Rubber Hearing. By the Associated Pr CINCINNATI, December 28.—Peti- tion for a writ of mandamus requir- ing United States District Judge John M.

By the Associated Press. MANKATO, Minn., December 28— A father and his son were killed by a Mankato High School boy, Harry Fleming, yesterday, when they ordered the boy and a party of squir- rel hunters from their farm. Frank Jacobe, 34 years old, was killed instantly with three bullets, and his father died later in a hospital. Fleming, another boy and two girls were resting under a tree .after tramping through woods. The Jacobes appeared and ordered the hunters off their land. When the Jacobes became insistent, Fleming shot at them, and with other members of his party left the place. Nick Jacobe, attracted by the shoot- ing, tracked the party, seized the quartet and turned them over to the police. Pl TAU Pl GROWTH CITED.

President Coolidge is hopeful of an era of continued prosperity for the coming year. While he made no specific predic- tions, the President while discussing the approach of 1927 with callers to- day said that the advices he has re- ceived are most reassuring and that he believes the citizens of this coun- try have reason to look forward to a bright year. The President said through his spokesman that labor conditions in the country are splendid and that re- ports read by Secretary of Labor Davis at today’s Cabinet session were to the effect that there is ample op- portunity for employment generally throughout the country and that the employment situation in the east, more especlally New York and New England, has greatly improved during the past few months. Manufacturing Business*Good. The President said that his advices are to the effect that manufacturing seems to be humming along at a happy rate and that is doing a record breaking business, and at the same time the transportation situation in the country is reaping fts share of the Nation's prosperity in the form of increased receipts. Discussing further the outlook for 1927 the President called attention to some of the major things, which he considers as having a direct bearing upon the sound condition in twhich the United States now finds itself. He called attention to the fact that it is a well known fact that this country is generously provided with capital, which makes possible of all Sorts of extensive enterprise. Labor Is Plentiful. The country, also, according to his viewpoint, is well supplied with labor and with natural resources and raw materials. Another indicafion of the healthy condition of the country, ac- cording to the President is the fact that the American people are think- ing only of peace and are recejving €00d wages and are spending their money liberally. All of this contri- butes” generally to the economic ad- vancement of the Nation, it was pointed out. The President reminded those with whom he was discussing the eco- nomic outlook that it is impossible for any one fo foretell what the year will bring or to see at this time what lh_e condition of business generally will be six months hence. ke per- sonally is inclined to think that the present. prosperity is in for a long run. In this connection, the Presi- dent recalled that at this very ‘time last year there was a prevalence of fear throughout the country that the Nation was on the verge of a recession in business and that a perfod of de- pression would be faced during the year. He pointed out that there was no reason for those fears and that the depression predicted by so many did not materialize. “BATHTUB GIRL” SAILS.
