BEN J0HNS0N'S CHARGE
PULLING TO OFFICIALS
Remarks in House Regarding Cost
of 10th Street Bridge
/. Criticised.

District officials are puzzled over what
Representative Ben johnson meant when,
on the floor OF the House last Saturday.
he referred TO an appropriation of $50
% for the. building of the 18th street
bridge and declared that 1T cost s73s.ooo
to condemn the land at this end OF that
bridge to get to it,
The natural impression created by th..
statement. It Is pointed out, is that the
bridge was built before 18th street was
extended. The facts in the case are that
ground for the extension OF this thorough
fare was condemned in 1900 and 1901.
whereas the bridge was not constructed
until 1906.
The award of the condemnation jury for
the extension OF 18th street from Chaplin
street to the District line was s72a. o. -
the amount of Sos, ss4.56 being returned
as benefits. Local officials are of tho
opinion that Mr.. Johnson must have had
In mind the entire extension of 10th street
when he referred TO the seven hundred
and-thirty- four-thousand-d dollar appropria-
ton to condemn land I'm order to afford
an approach TO the bridge.
