tious Of Maryland and Virginia develop
ed st a meeting yesterday OF the Good
Roads Association of the District, held
at the New Willard In Washington.
DR.. Taber johnson spoke about lack
oil good roads 10 Alexandra county.
he thought the District should make Ito
roads hard and smooth to the Aqueduct
md Obain bridges, so that the lncreas'
log travel over these ways could be al
ways easy. Then he thought Washing
toniaus should give every possible aid to
the improvements OF the roads leading
out from these bridges into Alexandria
county. DR.. Johps)n said that the idea
Of presenting the proposed bond issue Of
$500, 900 to the voters Of Alexandra
county at the November election had
been abandoned, because difficulties
we're encountered In the laws providing
for the administration of such fund.
Or. DetwiIer, OF Herndsn, spoke in
similar vein about The ways leading out
OF Washington, particularly some route
from the Highway bridge into upper
Virginis. he suggested route to Fair
lax court House, thence to Herndon, Cd
to LeesDurg, and finally through one OF
the niountsin gaps into the valley OF
Virginia. DR.. Detwiler through the
people of Washington should be inter
ested In the development OF such state
road to the valley aud should cooperate
withVirginians in getting It, Mt. A. ID.
Brocketl, OF Alexsndris, said that the
sentiment toward good roads was Ou the
Increase 10 Virginia, aud that the state
SOON would be making 81, 900, 900 sppro.
priation for construction. He thought
that Congress should be asked to help
with an appropriation 10 building road
to the end OF that which the Ale&an'
drlans have planned to build. DE sag.
gested that the government could build
road from Highway bridge through
the experimental farm. In his appeal
for congressional aid, Mr.. Btocketl said
Alexandra will ask the corporation OF

Colonel James, who is nov the nomi
nee of the party for the position made
