D, c, TO HAVE REAL
BEACH FOR BATKERS
Col. Ridley Announces Plans
for Swimmers in Tidal Basin
This Summer.

According to Col. Clarence S. Ridley
the engineer officer in charge OF puoi'c
buildings and grounds. the residents
Of the National Capital early in July
will have public bathing facilities bet
ter than they have had before and
EQUAL to those afforded inland citizens
anywhere. That result is made pos
sible by the congressional approprla-
f ton of $4,000 for the establishment OIL
q bathing beach in the tidal basln III
West Potomac Park. Under autnorlt!
of that act contract has just peeh
made with Hyde & Baxter OF this city
for the construction of the necessary
buildings. in accordance with pans
prepared by Capt. Horace w. Peasiee
Of the Engineer Reserve corps anu ap-
proved by Col. Ridley.
The site selected is on the southeast
side of the tidal basin about hali way
between the inlet and outlet orldses.
That is near the line of the WaShlng-
ton. Alexandria and Mount vernon
Railway Company, and within easy
walking distance of the bureau cars OF
the Washington Railway and Electric
Company.
Beach Of Pure Sand.
The basin itself will be the pool. with
q sloping beach of pure sand and COM
modious lighthouses on the shore.
feature of the new beach will be the IN
stallation of purifying plant to make
the bathing as safe and inviting as
possible.
The plan comprises central build,
ing, with covered service rooms ana
ahelters around an open court and two
open courtyards for lockers, following
the curve of the basin wall.
The building will provide dressing
rooms, lockers, showers, sanitary con-
veniences, shelter and refreshment
booth. Separate provision is made for
women and girls and for men and boys.
The construction will be frame, with
exterior walls of stucco and hollow
tile, and with brick or concrete founda-
ton. Being intended for use only in
the summer season, no arrangements
are made for heating.
Lockers for S57.
Provision is made for S57 lockers, of
which 300 are intended for men, 1888
for boys and PA for women. That ca
pacity will be extended if found neces-
sary.
!. Building operations will be pushed
rs rapidly as possible, and it is conf
IDENTIFY expected to have the bathing es-
Establishment ready for use early in July.
A slight delay occurred in the Begin
ming of the work because of the neces-
sity of modifying the original plans SO
as to admit of their execution with the
funds available. Bids submitted under
the original plans were in excess of
the appropriation. Nevertheless
strong effort will be made to open the
new bathing beach about the first of
July, which, Col Ridley says, is only
about two weeks later than the usual
time for opening the bathing season III
this city.

Blind Demand War Books
American ASSN to Adopt Re-
vised Braille Type of Printing

Demands for reading matter on rh
war by the blind have caused the d.
partment for the blind at the New York
Public Library. Fifth Avenue and
Forty second Street, to place at their
disposal ten volumes of war literature
SO popular have these books become
among the unfortunates to whom ordi-
nary literature is useless that they are
nearly always in circulation. The
books, which were published in Eng
land, are:
"Over the Top" by Arthur Guy En-
pey; Garry On" by C. W. Dawson;
"Kitchener's Mob" by J. N. Hall; -Four
Weeks in the Trenches" by Fritz
Kreisler; "The British Campaign in
France and Flanders" in four volumes.
by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: "Fighting
in Flanders" by E. A. Powell; "My
Year Of the Great War;" by Frederick
Palmer.
The American Association for the Blind
has decided to adopt a universal type of
printing for the blind, known as the
Revised Braille type, which is used
throughout Europe. Since its invention
by Louis Braile in Paris in 1928 it
has been adopted by the French Inst1-
tute Natlonale des Jeunes Aveugles and
in England. 1t will gradually replace
the New York point system and the
American Braille hitherto used in the
United States
