PROPOSED
BOULEVARD.

About twelve years ago, when 1t
was seen that the maintenance of a
Ferry between Alexandria al d Wash
iugton ha! become uacer:a'.i. the Ga
zette suggested that .%e time had
ccme for the construct;:n C an APP
plan Way between This city and the
national capital.
\. It was stated at the time that Alex
andria was fortunate in being located
SO near Washington, and that if any
other Virginia city was in so close
proximity it would 60 to any extreme
in building a suitable highway to
connect with the capital city.
The ferry has long since passed
sway and communication between this
city and Washington by vehicle IS
necessarily over the road. The advent
of the automobile and auto truck has
brought about conditions which should
be met.
from the confines of Alexandra to
The Highway Bridge is about four
miles, run which can be covered IN
4 few minutes by modern vehicles
and as the commerce Of Washington
with this city and surrounding towns
III mingljng more and more yearly, a
modern road would prove great de-
sideraLum.
The movement which has been
started to build fine boulevard from
Washington to Mount Vernon via
Alexandria is practical. 1t is an echo
Of the proposal to construct Mount
Vernon Avenue which has been so
long on the trestleboard.
Alexandria is asked to contribute
$4,000 towards the work. Untort-
unately this appeal comes at time
when the city's hands are virtually
tied. as it has recently embarked in
the plan for a new high school and
new truck house and has subscribed
$4,000 towards the proposed new nos
p;tal A good road to Washington
is as essential as any other enter
prise.

SENATE PASSES
REPEAL BIT l..

As had been anticipated, the United
States Senat, last night passed the
bill repeating a section, obnoxious to
may who finch at subsidies, exempt
ing from tolls American coastwise
vessels which may pass through the
Ea-:.an,a Garal. The vote stood SO to
So.
Tie measure now goes back to tEe
House, which is expected to accept
the Simmons-Norris amendment spe-
cifcally reserving all rights the Uni
ted States may have under the Hay
Paunccfote treaty.
The bitterness manifested by those
opposed to repeating that clause in
the bill was marked, and a personal
encounter en- one occasion was mar
rowly averted.
The cry of the minority is that
British diplomacy has been crowned
in triumph But the majority of the
peoples representatives in both
branches of Congress, as well as the
people themselves see no such spectre.
When repeal was first suggested to
the House Of Representatives by
President Wilson We believed he was
right. We believe so now.
The democratic party, it must be
admitted, placed itself in a paradox
ical position when the Baltimore Con-
vention placed that plank in its plat
form. This was done before the nom
nation for President was placed IN
the hands of Mr.. Wilson. The organ
ization had for many years inveighed
against subsidies and had lampooned
the republican party for catering to
privileged classes. Unfortunately, as
lis often the case, they found them
selves doing what they condemned in
others.
! A number of republicans, it will be
seen, voted for repeal.
The House, it is believed, will adopt
the measure, as it comes from the
Senate, and the vexations issue Will
have been settled after the President
shall have placed his signature to 1t.
