Site Is Only Disputed Question

1t appears That all PARTIES interest ed
Il NOW bridge to m"ct increasing vc-
hiculHr and other traffic between this
city and points i'll Virginia west of the
Highway bridge. Tho only question in
for such structure. The weight of
opinion favorS Il site near the present
Auueduct brdar. but it has been ar
sued by some people that the needs of
building !, bridge from the foot of II
street across .Analostan Island to Ross
lyn, Va.
In some quarters the point has been
made that as the proposed new bridge
is needed more by the merchants and
people of Eirginil and Washington
than by the United States government,
it would be only fair that the state and
the District should contribute Il pro-
portionate share of the expense of
building the bridge. In support of that
proposition it is stated that the traffic
with Fort Myer and Arlington ceme-
terry now can be made by way of the
Highway bridge and the new road
through the agricultural experimental
farm and, consequently, that the Aque-
duct bridge is no longer essential to
the transportation needs of the gov
ernment Secretary Garrison, in re-
sponse to an inquiry, said that no qUes-
ton has arisen between himself and
Representative Carlin with respect to
any division of the cost of the bridge.
