SIXTEENTH STREET
EXTENSION FUNDS
LARGE PAYMENTS WILL Be DUE.
Question Now Is, How the District
Commissioners Shall Obtain
the Money for the
Purpose.

While there Will be no legislation nee
essary for the District Commissioners to
accept the findings OF the jury IN the
Sixteenth Street extension matter. and
to approve them. some steps viii be re-
Quired TO provide the money necessary
for the large payments which viii fall
due as soon as the proceedings are legally
finished.
This must be done through a loan or
by the advance of funds from the United
States Treasury to be charged against the
future revenues OF the District as the
law framed for the purpose may specify.
Not Officially Notified.
The District Commissioners this morn
ing had received no official notification OF
the action Of the Senate Committee on
the District with reference TO the Six
teenth Street extension.
The Commissioners referred the ques-
tion Of accepting the awards Of the last
jury Of condemnation 10 the Senate com
mittec, with a statement Of the difficulties
that had been experienced in connection
with the proceedings, and especially the
small proportion which the assessment Of
benefits bore to the awards for damages.
Was for Committee to Decide.
The motive OF the Commissioners was
TO acquaint the Senate committee with
the facts and to leave them to decide
whether there should be any further leg
islation in connection with the opening
Of the street
The conclusion arrived at by the Senate
committee was not unexpected to the
Commissioners. and when they are off,
cially notified by Senator Mcmillan the
way viii be open for them 10 approve for
mally the findings OF the Jury Of con-
demnation and proceed 10 the opening Of
the thOrOughfare whenever the money Is
provided for paying the damages.
Not Given Much Choice.
The law gave the District Commission
ers the discretion to reject the findings Of
the jury OF condemnation provided the
benefits should be less than 30 per cent
Of the damages. The jury reported
awards Of damages amounting 90 S729. -
1928 and assessed benefits 10 the amount
Of Sos S3475.
BY the terms Of the law and I'm ac-
cordance with the rulings Of the courts
IN similar cases. the Commissioners were
not empowered TO summon another Jury
70 make new award. and they were ad-
vised by the City Solicitor that if they re-
jected the findings Of thc jury their de-
ci7ion would be final and the law for the
opening Of sixteenth Street would ex-
pire.
The Commissioners we're confronted
with this alternative last May. and after
hearing the arguments Of the attoruegs
engaged by the property holders In the
several parcels Of land affected, they con
cluded 10 suspend action in the matter
and report the case % Congress.
