Under the plan as outlined, sec

Of the great forest battles In which
American arms distinguished them
selves.
There would be a section named
BeIleau Wood, to commemorate the

called the Meuse-Argonne Forest,
where Maryland heroes OF the Tween

CONGRESSMAN
ENTER REFUSE.
PLANT FIGHT

Vigorous protest against the cree
ton in Northeast Washington near
Mount Olivet Cemetery of the Dis
trict refuse plant was voiced today
by the West Virginia delegation in
Congress.
Informed that the plant is to be
erected on West Virginia avenue,
Senator'S Sutherland and EIkins and
Representative Reed went out to IN
vestigate for themselves.
Senator Sutherland was emphatic
in stating today that the entire sys-
TEN Of refuse collection in the Dis
trict should be taken out of the hands
Of private owners and placed entirely
under District management.
SympathiEe with Residents
The West Virginia delegation are
entirely in sympathy with residents
Of Northeast Washington who pro-
test against the establishment of the
plant in their section.
Not only would il prove a serious
nuisance, Senator Sutherland ex
planned. but 1t would greatly depre-
ciate real estate values and injure
that section as a residential district.
The District government will lose in
taxes eventually, ne SAID, because
people would not be inclined to erect
homes In that neighborhood.
''The principles concerned are just
the same with these people," said
Senator Sutherland, "as If the plant
were going to be erected near Dupont
Circle, in the fashionable section.
That section OF the city in the
of the plant is an ideal
section for moredate priced homes,
and these homes mean just as much
to their owners, who have most of
their capital invested in them. as the
more expensive homes around Dupont
Circle mean to property owners
there. who have onl va part Of their
capital invested"
Senator Sutherland said he could
see no reason why the plant should
not be located in a district far re-
moved from a residential section.
The refuse might be taken in boats
md dumped at Occoquan. he sug-
gested.
The West Virginia delegation were
taken out to the plant by DR.. Per-
;ival Hall. president OF the Column
bit Institute for the Deaf; Evan II.
fucker, president OF the Northeast
Citizens Association,
md other members Of that organi-
sation.
