- PPOSE CLOSNG OF MICHIGAN AVE. J’fade Board Body Wil Ask :Teongress to Remove Objec- - tionable Features of Bill. SRepresentatives of the streets and ues committee of the Washington of Trade will call upon members Congress to urge that bills providing the closing of Michigan avenue at railroad grade crossing near Catho- | University and the cutting off of | n street by a proposed acquisition | land for Walter Reed Hospital be | iended to remove these objectionable tures before their passage. This action was decided on yesterday a luncheon meeting of the committee the City Club, when determined op- ition to both profects developed. It was pointed out that a large sum | recently been expended to straight- Michigan avenue at the Soldiers' me, making it a main carrier of ffic, and that this will have been asted if the street is cut off. 4 Bill Provides for Blocking. The provision for its blocking is car- | rvied in a Senate bill under which th: rallroad crossing bridge on Mnnmt\ street nortneast would be widened and | the corner of Tenth and Monroe streets rounded to permit an easier flow of | traffic in a northeasterly direction. The trade body committee contends that this would not adequately nplace‘ Mi n avenue, which affords Straight and more direct route for ve Ricles passing through the city. It was stated that Aspen street is| planned by the city authorities as one | ©f the major east-west thoroughfares | of the Walter Reed section.
