TIDAL BASIN BATH
GETS DEATH BLOW
Fight Won in Congress, But
Health Officials Veto
the Project.

Senator Norris of Nebraska, who has
made vigorous fight for more than a
year to have Congress appropriate
money to At up the tidal basin as a
bathing beach for the people of the
District. won his fight during the con-
ference on the sundry civil appropria-
ton bill, and then lost 1t, 1t was learned
last night.
sundry civil bill, providing $4,000 for
beginning the work Of Transforming
the basin into a bathing beach, was
agreed to in the Senate, and the Sen
ate and House conferees also agreed to
the item.
Basin Declared Insanitary.
The District health authorities then
stepped in. Careful examination Of the
water in the basin, they reported to the
conferees and to Senator Norris. devel-
oped the fact that the water there was
polluted and dangerous for bathing
purposes. That put an end for the time
being to the project.
Senator Norris said last night that he
still had hopes that the basin could be
made into healthful bathing beach for
the reSlQentS OF w washington.
"I am convinced" he said, that It
would be unwise to go ahead with the
project under present conditions, but
these conditions may be changed in the
future. The health authorities explain
ed to me that much sewage goes into
the Potomac river between Georgetown
and the tidal basin, and that consider
able sewage is to be found in the
Washington channel.
Two 1nlets to Basin.
'The tidal basin has two inlets, one
from the Potomac river and the other
from the Washington channel. The
sewage polluted water comes into the
basin with the tide through both in
lets. The consequence is. the health
authorities say. the water in the basin
Is very insanttary.
II am told. however, that plans are
under way to have the sewage, or q
great part of 1t, that goes into the Po-
tomac river near Georgetown carried
off by other means The inlet from
the Washington channel into the tidal
basin is very small and could easily be
filled UP. So l do not see why in the
future it will not be possible to carry
out the plan for turning the tidal ba-
sin into a bathing place with perfect
safety
