Shall the Bathing Beach BE Abandoned:
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
In looking over the Congressional Record Of
July find that the Senate has receded from
its amendment. liz, among others. This means
that the bathing beach bill is killed for this
Congress. At any rate I know of no means
to revive it, This ia great disap-
pointment to me- had hoped that Washing
ton people would be provided with one little
spot where they could enter the water in safety
and where lovers OF nature might view the
broad Potomac with foreground artistically
set ,as We had planned the bathing beach. but it
is not to be 30 yet. and l think there are
thousands with me in this disappointment.
Feeling that my efforts for nearly four years
past have resulted in failure, or in but little
benefit to the people. am disposed to resign
my position superintendent of the
the Commissioners that it will be closed, for
no one else will spend the necessary time to
take charge Of it. After tOdays payment of the
keepers fhall have only Sc left of last years
donations. and that is all we have to run on.
The cure mt expenses are now % day, which
pays man and boy. What shall do!
