Street Cars Needed on AGucduct
Bridge.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
II is to be hoped that some action VIII be
taken before Congress adiourns permitting
the passage of cars over the AqueGuct
bridge, as approved by tho Commissioners.
Not long ago, one Saturday evening, one
woman among many, l alighted al the
Georgetown terminus to take the necessary
walk across the bridge 10 the Virginia
shore. it was about dusk and a cold wind
chilled the blood and impeded progress
every step Of the long way. At the other end
others were grouped about small depot.
awaiting the cars to take them to their
homes at Fort Myer, the village of Ball
stCn or the rapidly growing little town
of Falls Church. The cars soon filled and
men stood in the aisles. Some women were
laden With bundles, some carried or were
leading small children, whose delicate
lungs might lily bear exposure across that
wnd-swept bridge; few We're old ana
feeble, and as little able to risk cold and
fatigue, but one and all, young and old,
men and women, they had bent their heads
to the chilling blast and made their way
as best they might over the bridge.
And because these people have had the
misfortune to be on the wrong side OF the
river no protest, no appeal, has prevailed
for years. Through sleet and snow of win
ter and midsummer's burning heat the pitt
full procession has been forced TO come
and go mercilessly. Fort Myer has been
held at distance. Visitors to Arlington,
with no money for carriages-and how
many such there are-must share the same
discomfort The Memorial bridge, that
fair beggar at the gates of country s pa
triotism, has been fiaunted and denied on
one preteXt or another
But, looking at it in all truth, this ma
ti0nal "hazing' of the weak, of helpless
Womanhood and childhood, and denial OF
the rights of a community at large, Is the
nresent burning shame and disgrace of

at its height, Mrs. Nation entered and made
her way up the aisle toward the platform.
Most of the audience believed she was In
Jail and the cheer that went up at the sight
of her must have been inspiring to the
Joint smasher. Soon she began a volley OF
words.
Women women she said, as she sud
denly stepped forward with a dramatic
gesture, women, We must be about the
work of the Lord this very afternoon.
There are yet some hell-holes here which
have not closed up, in spite of the promises
to the contrary.
Mrs Nation said she was going to re-
main right here in Topeka until after
the city election, so she could help IN the
election of mayor.
The meeting adopted resolutions protest-
ing against the pending resubmiss1on reso-
luton in the legislature. and as the meet
ing adjourned Mrs. Nation asked the Home
Defenders to meet her al the cicse. one
