Course Was Followed in 1lth Street
Case. But Under New

Tlt.. decision nf the Supreme Court -
Iie United states regarding the as

the widening Of Colorado avenue and
Kennedy street was discussed at city
hall today Some doubt was expressed
rs 10 whether an entire new proceeding
would bc started or whether there
would be a reassessment of benefits

in the extension of 11th street, but
through additional legislation.

ed. Will he TO place upon the District
of Columbia the burden of proof as to
actual benefits to lie derived by the
separate parcels of adjacent property
by reason of the widening or extension
OF street. The District thereby would
have to show actual benefit its amount
and extent. it is suggested. as to the
individual holdings. although the total
benefit is fixed by legislative enact

All dedications of land for streets. in
