Anthem.”“They sion and other Government officials, should be appointed by the Congress for the purpose of making a thorough engineering and financial study of the matter of subway construction and operation in the District of Columbia.” This is the whole story of the at- titude of the Public Utilities Commis- sion of the District of Columbia with respect to the advisability of con- structing subways in the District at this time. An interview with Riley E. Elgen, chairman of that commis- sion, discloses the fact that he believes that subways for Washington are in- evitable in time. That may mean any- where from 15 to 20 years hence, in Mr. Elgen’s estimation. Nationally known experts, Mr. Elgen points out, were engaged by the Utili- ties Commission and the National Park and Planning Commission to make an intensive study of transportation in the District when rerouting was under consideration. John Beeler, a trans- portation expert from New York, made a serious study of all phases for the commission, and Harold Bartholomew, from St. Louis, made a similar survey for the Park and Planning Commis- sion. Mr. Bartholomew recommended s tunnel under the Ellipse in Potomac Park, from where the new Interior Building is located, to emerge some- where in the immediate vicinity of the District Building. But this was not & subway, but more of an under- ground pass for this short distance. Beeler, according to Mr. Eigren, said he did not think the time had arrived | when subway construction was mnec- | essary, a judgment based, however, on the rerouting and rearrangement of surface transportation. | Just exactly what the Beeler organi- zation had to say with regard to Dis- trict subways may be of interest. At the conclusion of his recommendations he states: “Subway lines or . .bsurface ways for the street car lines are fre- quently mentioned in connection with the Washington transit problem. This is a subject to be approached with great caution. The operating, physical and financial problems involved re- quire an amount of research work not pertinent to a report of this nature. THE standard type of subway con- struction, as employed in New York City, Brooklyn and Phil~jelphia, is especiaily designed and equipped for a tremendous volume of riders in concentrated lines of traffic.

Salos. ‘Dorothy Meeks and Meiviile Voreern: EVENING SERVICE. “Now Is Christ Risen,~ an Easter choir cantata Artl hur Thomas Gilbert Geibel THEME CHOSEN Rev. C. T. Murray Will ' Speak at Vt. Ave. Baptist. Elaborate preparations are made by Rev. C. T. Murray at the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church for the cele- bration of Easter Sunday. Decora- tions will be arranged by the Flower Club. The pastor’s sermon will be ampli- fled over six loud speakers. He will use for his subject at 11, “If, and Now —Was, and Now.” At 8 pm. he will preach on “Thomas was Absent.” Rev. T. Ewell Hopkins will deliver a special message to the junior church in the lower auditorium from 11:30 am. to 12:20. At 12:20 the pastor's sermon will be heard in each audito- rium, and in the dining room. Rev. Hopkins' subject will be “The White Lily.” if it were not for this method of transe portation New York City, with its dense population and peculiar physical layout, would not be what it is. Brook= lyn and Philadelphia would be com- pelled to adhere to the elevated rail- way, which is generally regarded as unsatisfactory, especialry oy those liv- ing or doing business along its route. “The cost of a modern two-track subway, exclusive of equipment, runs from $4,000,000 to $8,000,000 per mile of route. In fact, the vast cost and the consequent carrying charges are so large that the public authorities have generally assisted, in the past, in building or partly financing such un- dertakings. The present tendency is toward public ownership and rental of the facilities to an operating com= pany. “Subsurface ways adapted for fast street car trunk line service through the more congested areas is the plan extensively employed in Boston, and two or three car trains are operated free from all street interference and make almost as fast schedule as regu= lar local subway service. This plan has the advantage of operating the same equipment through tunnels and over streets, without the necessity of passengers changing from surface to subway cars. After leaving the tunnels the cars may fan out over their respective routes on the surface tracks.” When asked to describe a possible route that would seem to serve Wash- ington as a main subway line, Elgren considered a tentative route would probably run “somewhere north of Du- pont Circle, down Connecticut avenue and Seventeenth, to back of the White House and across the Ellipse, up Pennsylvania avenue to the Capitol and Union Station.” There would probably be “feeders™ into that main line, Elgen thinks, from Fourteenth street above Thomas Circle. “And to make it useful to sur- face lines,” he concludes, “they would have to introduce the Columbia line that now comes in New York avenue onto the Fourteenth street line.”
