A—6 - NIGES HELP ASKED -~ ON RAIL CROSSING ,;'Kensington Chamber Ap- +‘peals for Speed in Elim- inating Menace. BY JACK ALLEN, Staft Correspondent of The Star, KENSINGTON, Md., November 28. ~—Branding the local grade crossing as highly dangerous and a sfrious menace to life, the Chamber of Com- merce unanimously adopted a resolu- tion last night in which it solicited " “the aid of Gov. Harry W. Nice and other State and Federal officials in .speeding up construction of the pro- posed overpass. b The measure likewise reafirms the 4 trade body’s demand that the State ", Roads Commission act immediately to < eliminate the hazardous intersection by building thie span for which the “4 Public Works Administration appro- . priated $145,000 a year ago, but on © which no further progress has been made. s Nine Killed There. % It was explained by representatives " of the Town Council and the Civic .. League for the Central Suburban Area of Montgomery County that they re- ¥ ceived assurances from road officials i, two days ago that bids on the project will be sought next month with the * work expected to get under way in February. » The chamber decided, however, to forward the resolution to the State Roads Commission anyway and fur- ther urged upon that body the neces- sity of proceeding with elimination of the crossing, which already has claimed nine lives and brought injury to numerous others in train-auto ‘wrecks. It was pointed out in the resolution « that a survey by the American Au- & tomobile Association this year dis- # closed the crossing to be the most dan- © gerous in the Greater Washington "¢ area. Nice Pledged Support. Gov. Harry W. Nice pledged his sup- - port of the project in a speech here two months ago and he will be asked to call upon the State Roads Commis- , sion to proceed at once to build the . overhead bridge above the Baltimore .. & Ohio Railraods tracks. The assistance of Francis H. Dry- den, Public works administrator for Maryland; P. W. A. officials in Wash- ington and Maryland’s Representa- | tives in Congress also is sought in the “_ resolution. Another measure was adopted call- ing upon the Montgomery County | 4 commissioners for a definite reply re- «+ garding the chamber’s request for the immediate financing of a junior high | # school to serve Kensington and nearby # communities. # The request, it was explained, was # gent to the board more than a month “# ago, but no answer has been received. s A resolution was adopted thanking % the Board of Education for its recent " action in placing the proposed insti- J tution at the top of the county’s fu- ; ture school construction list and as- , suring the chamber that the institu- (. tion will be built whenever funds are . available. ~ BOARD WILL DISCUSS CENTRAL POST OFFICE ~' Inspectors Will Attend Arlington Meeting on Long-Standing 3 Proposal.
