10 =% ANNEXATION PLAN SEEN AS PARK AID Maj. Cary Brown Holds Rec- lamation of Hunting Creek Flats Possible. 8pecizal Dispatch to The Star. ARLINGTON COUNTY _COURT-| HOUSE, Va., January 29. R&clll}nlnfl! of the Hunting Creek Flats would pro- | vide the City of Alexandria with an ideal site for a large public park along ine proposed Mount Vernon boulevarg, Maj. Cary Brown of Washington told the couri this morning when presented by council for Arlington County as a witness in the annexation suit brought against the county by Alexandria. { Maj. Brown, wao is a member of the | National Capital Park and Planning Commission, when asked on cross-cx- amination by Alvert V. Bryan of the counsel for Alexandria if it would not cost 50 cents per foot to reclaim the | Jand, testified that it would not cost more than 10 cents a cubic yard, or approximately $1,300 an acre to fill in | the lowlands along the creek. In the direct examination conducted by Commonwealth Attorney William C. Gloth of Arlington County, Maj. Brown said that the territory recently acquired irom Fairfax County by annexation agreement offers Alexandria a large area of land suitable for the construc- tion of high class homes. He asserted that opening of ' streets adjacent to tracks of the Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac Railroad jn Alexandria would unquestionably aid in develop- ment of the city's land. Say Few Favor Change. Webster C. Davis, resident of Jeffer- son magisterial district for 22 years, said that 97 per cent of the citizens of that district are opposed to annexation by_Alexandria. David D. Smith, an Arlington County coniractor,. who resides on Glebe road in the territory sought by the city, as- serted that a very small percentage of people in his section favor annexation. He said that he has constructed ap- proximately 50 homes 'in the county during the past year, and that the greater majority of the occupants have moved in from Washington. About 10 formerly lived in Alexandria, he said. Mayor Walter B. Fulton of the town of Potomac testified that Potomac has all modern facilities, including well or- ganized fire and police departments, two schools, churches of practically every denomination and an ample num- ber of stores. Direct examination of Harry K. Green, Arlington County commissioner of revenue, was postponed this morning to allow Maj. Brown, Mayor Fulton, Davis and Smith to testify. Direct ex- amination of Commissioner Green prob- ably will be continued this afternoon or at the morning session tomorrow. Fears Retardation. On the stand yesterday afternoon Green told the court-that annexation would retard the growth of both the | city of Alexandria and Arlington County in that the higher tax rate which would result would be so increased that it ‘would keep industries and home seekers from both places. Arlington County ‘would have to increase its tax rate from $2.50 to $3.10 on the $100 assessment to compensate for the loss of $172,884.52, The assessed valuations in land and he said. personal property have increased in the county from $7,806,190 in 1916 to $21,- | and 704,780 in 1928. Over the same period Alexandria has increased from $5,919,- 936 to $11,195,602 in 1928. During the 12-year period. Alexandria increased $5,275,666, or 88 per cent, while the county- increased $13,898,598, or 178 per cent. The county commissioner also told the court that in Alexandria there is an additional automobile tax of 20 cents per hundred pounds in addition to the | State tax, and an additional 50 cents Tor poll tax. Green testified that Arlington County | ranks fourth out of 100 counties in the | State in capital assessments, while | Alexandria ranks sixteenth out of the 26 cities. Two Residents Testify. Counsel for the county presented two | witnesses at the afternoon session yes- terday in an attempt to show that resi- dents in the area proposed to be an- nexed, as & whole, are opposed to| annexation. They were Ralph E. Rem- ington, deputy clerk of the Circuit Court for Arlington County and a resi- dent of the area Alexandria hopes to - obtain, and Bryan E. Gordon, a resi- dent of Mount Ida and an attorney- at-law. Remington told the court that only two of the people of his neighborhood that he has conversed with regarding | annexation have spoken with favor of going into Alexandria. He said that practically all of the county streets and roads in the area sought are modern and hard surfaced and that the street gghgndg system supplied by the county good. On cross-examination by Albert V. Bryan of the counsel for Alexandria, Remington said his mail comes to him through the Alexandria post offict and that all express, telegrams and tele- phone’ calls are handled in Alexandria. Gordon stated that sentiment in the Mount Ida community and the town of Potomac, as a whole, is strongly against annexation, On cross-examination Gordon ad- mitted that many of the roads and streets in the territory proposed to be | annexed had been improved since the ar:nexntwn sult was instituted by the city.

ARLINGTON ROAD NEEDS OUTLINED Record-Sized Delegation Pre- sents Views at Charlottes- ville Meeting. BY LESTER N. INSKEEP. Staft Correspondent of The Star. CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, January 20.—By far the largest delegation from any section, Arlington County’s repre- sentatives today appeared before the Virginia State Roade Commission to urge the construction of three new high- ways and the verification of the tenta- tive allocation already made for the year of 1929, The projects advocated are the widening and paving of Glebe road, from the Washington-Alexandria pike to the Lee highway; the construction of two connecting roads with the new Ar- lington Memorial Bridge: the widening of the Washington-Alexandria pike and the continuance of the work done last year on the Lee highway from Rosslyn to Cherrydale. ‘The first speaker for the county was B. M. Hedrick, supervisor from Arling- ton district. He read a resolution passed yesterday by the Board of County Su- pervisors advocating the Glebe road project. He called the attention of the commission to the fact that this road, which has been owned by the State for more than five years, is the only direct connecting link between the northern ' and southern ends of the county. Frank Campbell Speaks. Hedrick was followed by Frank G. Campbell as a representative of the Arlington County Ciyic Federation and as & member of the Virginia Park and Planning Commission. He advocated the Glebe road project, and requested that some definite action be taken re- garding the large number of signboards now being placed aleng the State high- ways. Col. H. J. Shirley, chairman of the highway commission, took excep- tion to Campbell's statement that the commission had been handicapped by lack of power. A measure of assurance that the tentative allocations of $180,000 for the ‘Washington-Alexandria pike and Lee Highway projects would not be changed, in order to finance any of the proposed propositions, was sought by Hugh Reid, a member of the House of Delegates from Arlington County. Will Hear Federal Views. In reply to a plea by Dr. Samuel M. Johnson, president of the Lee Highway Association and advocate of the con- struction of the Lee boulevard, Col. Shirley said that the commission is ready to receive suggestions from the Federal Government as to what should be done, and indicated that the com- mission is prepared to give favorable consideration to the suitable developa ment of the bridge approaches and the construction of sufficient highway to connect the bridge with existing State highways. Members -of all of the delegations made it plain that they are not seeking to have any of the $180,000 tentatively allocated to the continuance of the Lee Highway and the widening of the ‘Washington-Alexandria pike diverted from these projects. It is their purpose, they said, to have some of the funds diverted from other projects of less importance in the Cul- peper District, of which Arlington and Fairfax Counties are a part, to the pressing needs in Arlington County. The Board of County Supervisors, as represented by Hedrick, are asking only for the development of Glebe road. This is the only road in the county, they pointed out, that directly connects the northern md‘ souct:}e,;n v;n% of the county, reaching from ashington- Alexandria pike to Chain Bridge. Only the point from the Lee Highway to the bridge is now surfaced. A resolution, passed unanimousl; yesterday by the Board of Supervisors, requesting the development of this road, called the attention of the commission to the fact that the supervisors have, at considerable expense, obtained options for free rights of way for the widening of a greater portion of this road. ‘These options are for the period of one year, and if the highway commission does not allocate funds for the road’s develop- merix!c at this time the options will expire. Glebe road, it was made known, has been owned by the State for more than five years and no effort has as yet been made to do_anything with it. Action on the Lee Boulevard, it was pointed out by Dr. Johnson, is necessary in order that Virginia may have a con- nection with the new Arlington Me- morial Bridge when it is ready for use. Dr. Johnson is not asking that any money included in the present alloca- tions be used for this purpose. Connect With Bridge. ‘There is a fund, he pointed out, held in abeyance by the commission for the “filling in of gaps” in the State highway system. It would be possible, and even feasible, he said, to use a part of this fund for the construction of enough road to connect the Virginia end of the bridxte with other paved roads in the county. Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, director of pub- lic buildings and public parks of the District, has announced that the new bridge will be ready for use by March of next year, a year ahead of the orig- inal schedule. While this is an achieve- ment of note, Dr. Johnson declared, it will be of little consequence if the Vir- ginia end is blocked by the failure of the State to provide an exit on that side of the Potomac. It is his purpose to have the highway commission allocate enough funds for the construction of a 200-foot boulevard to the Government road that runs parallel with the eastern side of Arling- ton Cemetery, to widen this road, and then to continue the new road to a point at the northwest corner of Fort Myer reservation, where temporary con- nections can be made with other State and county roads. Fairfax County, while allocated but | $5,000 for the construction of new roads in 1929, is seeking only enough money to construct the mile and a quarter of road on the Leesburg pike, beginning at Difficult Run. It is the opin of Supervisors Mark Turner and Leigh that the projects sought by Arlington County will be of more bene- fit to Fairfax County residents than any project contemplated by the latter county, .

RICHMOND, Va, January 29.—In- struction in regard to the distribution of 10,000 Mexican quail in Virginia dur- ing March are being sent to game ward- ens throughout the State by M. D. Hart, | dej secretary of the State Commission of Game and Inland PFisheries. The instructions are being sent, it was pointed out by A. Willis Robertson, chairman of the commission, in order that th: birds might be safely “planted” in the State. “The shortage of quail during the past season indicates the necessity for Hugh Hardesty of Clarke County. One byother, Charles Roberts of Berryville, 0 survives, stressing propagation during the cur- rent vear,” Robertson said in his order. “If there Is & sportsmen's assoclation in your county, you should endeavor to obtain the assistance of its members in the selection of suitable places for the release of the birds. The success of this undertaking depends to a considerable gree on the co-operation of the sports- men and land owners. “In selecting places for the release of these birds consideration should be given to food supply and to cover. The ideal place is a heavy thicket adjolning a stubble or weed field with water nearby. “Hawk traps set on poles near the point of release and in nearby fielde will help a great deal in bringing the Mexican birds through to the 1 l MOOSE T0 HONOR R P.

Special Dispatch to ‘The Star. FALLS CHURCH, Va., January 29.— The directors of the Straight-to-the- Bridge Boulevard Association meeting last night in the offices of M. E. Church at Falls Church, appointed C. R. Taylor as delegate to Charlottes- ville today to present to the State High- way Commission the resolution adopted unanimously by the 15 directors present, directors present. This_resolution called to the atten- | tion of the highway commission the published statements of Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, that the Arlington Memorial Bridge will be completed in 1930 and available for traffic in 1931 by con- structing temporary approaches, but that construction of such approaches will depend on whether the State of Virginia has its road in readiness by that time. Failure of the State to construct the necessary highway will mean an im- measurable loss to Virginia through loss of the use of the bridge for one year, said the proponents of this measure. The resolution therefore requested the highway commission to_complete the Straight-to-the-Bridge Boulevard by the time the Memorial Bridge is opened to traffic. The resolution calls to the attention of the highway commission the fact that by previous decision of that body two approaches will be provided: First, the Lee Boulevard, memorial in its char- acter and by reason of its great width routed through sparsely settled terri: tory and of present service to few pe Fire Truck Scorched When Mired at Blaze; Saved by Two Others Special Dispatch to The Star.
