CULEBRA CUT,

Graders Lower Street Level Six
Feet-PrOtest Brings Prom
iSe of Restoration.

How would you like to return from
your office and find a miniature
CuIebra Cut in front Of your home? +?
And the shade trees you so much
admired cut down?
And no sidewalk in front Of your
home?
And no way to put your automobile
in your garage?
And your wife indignant and the
nsighbors "up in the air." protesting
without avail, charging that District
officials bungled the job OF regarding
the street.
And then forced to go into your
home by the rear door and stand on
your well-kept font terrace to get a
bird'sAeye view of a sheer drop Of
six feet and more into the mud and
gravel Of the street that once was q
street?
Would you. too. be indignant?
Well, one of the residents Of Thirty
eighth street, between McComb and
Noodley road. was real indignant.
fe is R. B. Patterson, chief engineer
or the Potomac Electric Power Com
IRny, who just paid $4,000 for the
louse at 3207 Thirty-eighth street.
md he says that's just what happen
ID to him last Saturday.
Committee Gets Action.
And with other residents Of the
treet, including William C. PostOn,
Henry Newton Lowry, Frank p. JealCs
ind Charles r. Marsh, Patterson pro-
ested to the Cathedral Heights Citi-
ems Association, and they, in turn,
ppoined a committee. headed by Dan
Ell Herrick. which protested to Dis-
.rict Commissioner Kutz. Now,
'verybody's happy-for the time be-
ng at least.
District Commissioner Kutz went
ut to see the cut" and he stopped
he work on the regarding until he
could straighten the misunderstand-
ing out.
1t all came about in this way: Plans
were given a contractor to regrade
and pave Thirty eighth street, be-
tween McComb street and Massachd-
sets avenue. The plans called for a
six-foot cut, which would have left
the houses perched up on their ter
races without convenient access t.
the street when it was paved.
To Use Plan Given Builder.
Arthur Carr, who built Mr.. Patter-
sons home and several others on the
street, declares he had been instruct
ed by District officials that when the
street was to be repaved and graded
only one foot would be Topped of.
He says he built the houses accord
ingly.
Commissioner KutZ, after investiga-
tion, ordered the work done according
to the original plans given Mr.. Carr,
so Mr.. Patterson has been informed,
and the six-foot gap will be reflled
and the houses will not be affected to
any extent when the regarding and
paving is finished.

Ai EXPRESS SERVICE

Under private ownership the ex-
press service may not have been per-
iect but It did have some efficiency.
The new rules require as care'ul
Luxing and Grating as is necessary to
ship by freight and some things even
more.
There are so many rules and regu-
lations and SO much inefficiency that
express shipments are going TO min
imum.
This is the result with nearly every
feature Of public service that is politi-
calized and red-taped to death.
The greatest Of all American assets
in Individual enterprise and initiative,
the reverse of paternalism.

efnmentalize business and industries

palble OF leading the world.

ventilation Is impractical. The enroll

were in good condition, and we wish 10

We find n similar condition to that
