The $200.000 allotted by the public werks admi tor to the Arlington Memorial Bridge Commijssion will be used for the widening of Constitution avenue from Virginia avenue to the Potcmac River. This was cxplained today by the commisison’s executive officer, Col. James A. Wocdruff, Corps of Engincers, U. S. A, who said the approach to the Arlington Memorial Bridge will be widened to 80 feet. Inasmuch as the President’s reorganization program steps into the picture, the Arlington Mem- orial Bridge Commission will have ceased to exist before the elap<e of the customary 30 days allowed contractors before bids are opened. The commis- sion is slated to be merged. by execu- tive order, under the program pre- sented to Congress, with the new or- | ganization within the Interior Depart- ment that will succeed the present Na- tional Park Service. Widening Supervision. Accordingly. Col. Woodruff explained today. the widening of Constitution avenue will be supervised by the Bu: reau of Public Roads of the Depart- ment of Agriculiure, which, for a decade, has done work for the Interior Department. Plans and cuted in carrying out the Constitution avenue widening. It is expected that immediately Thomas H. MacDonald, chief of the Bureau of Public Roads, will confer with Col. Woodruff on de- tails of the program. Already Consti- tution avenue, which ultimately will be improved from the Senate Office Building to the Potcmac River, as a magnificent approach to the Arlington Memorial Bridge., has been widened at Third street, westward of the inter- section with Pennsylvania avenue, and from Fourteenth street to Virginia ave- nue. ‘The District government has shared in the expense of this work. but Col. Woodruff understands that the $200.000 will be wholly Federal funds, inasmuch as the thoroughfare | eastward of Virginia avenue is entirely within Federal territory. Having the widening done by the Bureau of Public Roads will mean that the, Arlington Memorial Bridge Com- mission will be unable to recall any of ! its workers, dropped recently for lack of funds. Some 14 cmployes, includ- ing inspectors, granite supervisors and designers, lost their jobs because of lack of money. No Columbia Island Funds. At present there is no money for the improvement of Columbia Island, an essential part of the bridge develcpment, s or for any of the other features of the program, such as the new bridge at the northwest corner of the island, across Boundary Channel, to link up with the ' Lee Highway around the northern end |of Arlington National Cemetery. In the independent offices appropriation act. for the current fiscal year, there are $195,000. part of which is intended for improvement of Constitution avenue cast of Fourteenth street. What be- comes of this under the merger is now problematical. The appropriation act carries $25,000 for the Arlington Memo- rial Bridge Commisison for tying up with the Virginia highway at the south- east corner of Arlington National Ceme- tery, making an improved thorough- | fare at the southern end of the ceme- tery. This money is contingent upon Virginia doing its share of the work. Some $36,000 was apprcpriated by Con- ,gress for cculptural . groups on the Washington end of the bridge and these |funds have bcen obligated as the artists are now at work on the models. | Salaries and $20.000 for emergency work take up the balance of the com- | mission’s appropriations, which will be transferred to the Interior Department.

State use, State account, contract. piece price and public works and ways. Of particular interest is the distinction be- tween the State-use system and the State-account system. In the former system. all products are used in State institutio and none is sold in the open market. Under the State-ac- count sysiem, prison products are of- fered for sale and thus come into com- petition with products &f free labor and industry. The 1932 survey showed an increase in the State-use system at the expense of the State-account sys- tem.
