THE SEVERN BRIDGE

No room is left for argument
for further delay in building a
safe and adequate bridge over the
Severn river. The wooden struc-
ture that was taken over seven
years ago by the State Roads
Commission as part of the Anna
polls Boulevard has reached the
uttermost limit of its safety and
usefulness.
the case is strongly and ire
futably presented in a letter to
the editor of the Evening Capital
printed on this page yesterday
The accident of last Thursday is
the latest warning of the constant
danger to traffic over the bridge.
Why the State Roads Commits
sion has not before this bestirred
itself to replace the Severn bridge
with a modern concrete structure
is a question that is unavailingly
asked. The Commission, perhaps,
has not had the money, and has
thought the need for a new bridge
not pressing. 1t constructed a
bridge over the Choptank river at
Dover Ferry, and has erected
similar structures at various
points throughout the State.
While it might be pertinently said
that a modern bridge, affording
the highest degree of safety, has
been nowhere more greatly need
ed than over the Severn, connect
ing the Baltimore Boulevard, one
o! the main-traveled roads OF the
State, with the city of Annapolis,
and from which thousands upon
thousands of automobiles view
the United States Naval Acad-
envy, the fact need not be dwelt
upon, for it speaks for iteslf.
What is beyond dispute is that
a new bridge must be built and
that without delay. AS the letter
we printed yesterday points OUT
Evening capital and Maryland gazette. (Annapolis, Md.) 1910-1922, 1919-10-03

the question Is not whether the
bridge shall be b.:i:t by tn. STATE.
or by the State and county, or by
the State, the county and the
Feredal authorities acting jointly
The only question is whether
the bridge shall be built with all
possible expedition. The official
responsibility is upon the State
Reads Commission. The Legi>
lature will be in session in Janu-
AIRY, but its converting ought not
TO be waited for by the Counts
sion, if there is anything it can do
i'm the interim.
The references by the Citizens
Committee to the Iroquois dis
aster in Chicago and the Slocum
burning IN New York are not lar
fetched. At any time the Severn
bridge is likely to become the
scene of a tragedy comparable to
these in many respects.
The time for talking about
building a new bridge is past. The
time for action has arrived and,
it may be remarked in this con-
nection, and with emphasis, that
similarly urgent and critical
condition exists in regard to the
bridge over South river, which
has also long since been a menace
to public safety as we'll as a gov
ornamental disgrace.

LETTER TO EDITOR
70 the Editor Of the Evening Capitol:

TO the Editor of the EUeHin0 Capital:
Is there no remedy for the terrible
situation that our Gas Company is
infiicting upon the whole community ?
Why should we be compelled to pay
for what we do not receive?
1t seems an age ago. but l am old
enough to remember the time. when
with a three-burner gas range our
wives could prepare decent meal,
but for long time now even one
burner gas stove Is superfluity as
we can not got enough gas to serve
even that, but singular to relate, our
gas bills do not show any reductions,
and If you question the Gas Co. on this
point they tell you that lot Of air
gets into the pipes and that registers
in the meters the same as gas.
was always under the impression
that air was free, but not in these days
for Judging from the article the Gas
Company is supplying to a suffering
and cHssing public 1t consists of 80
per cent of air to 10 per cent of gas
Now. IL the shot air" which the Gas
Company gives us could be utilized for
cooking and Illuminating purposes no
one would object to paying for it, but
to serve an article which will neither
cook or illuminate and then every
month send in bill for gas seems to
me the height of profiteering.
Yours very truly

MISS WOHLGEMUTH RETURNS TO
EMERGENCY HOSPITAL

EN- EhUENAI nV0I1lAL
The return to the superintend-
ency of the Emergency Hospital
of Miss Margaret Wohlgemuth
gives that institution a stronger
claim than ever upon public con-
hdence. Miss Wohlgemuth was
in charge of the hospital before
the war, and went overseas with
the Harvard unit. She came 10
the Emergency Hospital at f.st
from the Church Home and n
Urinary, Baltimore, where she was
superintendent of nurses. Miss
Wohlgemuth took charge of the
Emergency Hospital for the sec
ond time, and complimented the
retiring superintendent, Miss SAT-
fer, on the excellent and satisfac-
tory conditions in which she
found the hospitals affairs.
