SENATORS READY
FOR ALLEY CRUSADE
Newly Named Subcommittee
Soon Will Examine EIimi-
nation Bills.

The alley subcommittee of the Sem
ate District Committee stands ready
to begin work soon on inspection of
the alley elimination bills of Senators
Works. Pomerene. and Jones.
The result of their work is likely to
b. a concete bill Incorporating the best
features of the measures framed by the
three Senators. No date has been set
yet for a meeting of the sub-commit-
tee nor has there been any decision as
to whether or not the committee will
give public hearings on the alley elm
ination problem.
The committee has before 1t sufficient
material in the bills of the three Sem
ators, in the recent recommendations
of the District Commissioners. and in
the reports of former housing COM
missions to make a comprehensive elm
inaIion bill, suhc as both President and
Mrs. Wilson are anxious to see passed
at an early date.
Mrs. Wilson, to whom is due the chief
credit for stirring Senators and Con-
gressmen to action, is out of the city
and likely to remain there unit 1.-THE
close Of the summer. but her influence
has spurred leaders to action, and the
indications today point to early action
b ythe subcommittee so that this Con-
sion may pass the much-sought elimin-
alton bills.
