Deploring the “lack of an appropri- ate share of public improvements,” the Southeast Business Men's Associa- tion has urged the District Commis- sioners to replace the Pennsylvania Avenue Bridge in the interest of safety and remove the “health-menacing” garbage disposal plant within its boundaries. In a letter the business men's group charges Southeast Washington has been neglected; that it has paid for the im:rovement of other sections while i'; conditions have remained obsolete. “It is desired at this time to direct your attention to the conditions of Southeast Washington,” the letter read. “There are 14,622 families, con- sisting of 67.337 people, who contrib- ute to the payment of levied taxes and assessments, residing in this section of the city. The taxes paid amount to approximately 151, per cent of those paid by the entire city, and in return this section has received in the past but approximately 3 per cent of all taxes expended for improvement. Other Sections Held Favored. “As a result the section has been neglected in the repair of streets, the construction of bridges and nu- merous other necessary improvements, while other sections of the city have received numerous improvements far in excess of the taxes paid by such sections, such as the construction of three bridges in the northwest sec- tion of the city during the last three years.” In requesting & new Pennsylvania avenue bridge, the organization asked that an -estimate to cover the cost of initiating the replacement of the span be included in the District l;udzet for the year ending June 30, 937. “This association, as well as the Ara, formerly an unknown sculptor, who was encouraged by Archbishop Ryojin Ohmori, chief priest of the Bensoji Temple at Tokio, and other Buddhist ecclesiastics into completing the huge project.

At the present time the span is con- sidered in such precarious condition that a guard has been placed at either entrance to prevent trucks of more than 10 tons from passing onto the bridge. “It is believed that your action in approving this item fof the survey- by Your Luggage Women's Pullman Cases This Pullman case has that authentic ..@\\\\\\\\V" N LIV ing and engineering investigation for o\ “frat- the replacement of the obsolete and _"‘:_“\'/ class passenger” ££ inadequate Pennsyivania Avenue A n 28 30 inch .
