Georgetown is highly gratifed at the
consideration accorded her citizens by
Colonel Allen and his associates in con-
nection with the new bridge project
Georgetown river men have argued SO
forcibly in favor Of a bridge at least
twenty feet above the high water line
that it is believed their wish in this re-
spect will prevail. The people here in
terested III river trade are anxious that
the bridge be so constructed as to permit
the uninterrupted coming and going of
vessels.
An argument that made a profound i'm
preston vas TO the effect that so many
tugs ply on the Potomac that unless the
structure had a clearance sufficient to
obviate il the draw would be almost con-
tinuaIly opening and closing and bridge
traffic proper would be seriously inter
