REAR ADMIRAL EARLES
STATEMENT

Elsewhere in the Gazette VIII De
found Rear Admiral Earles obser-
vations concerning demands for
housing which will. in the near fu.
ture; be made upon Alexandria. This
officer also refers to present condi-
tions in this city which are incon-
veniencing many workmen now en-
ployed in preparing the torpedo
plant recently erected in this 'city
for operations. The Re&r Admiral
refers not only to the scarcity OF
suitable homes in this city, but also
to the high rents at present pre-
vailing. His object is, of course, to
stimulate building here, and he fol-
lows lines several times presented
by the Gazette during the past few
weeks. We have long since sounded
the alarm and the Rear Admiral
calls attention to the fact that the
timd is at hand when some move
ment should be made to meet the
demands that are sure to be made
upon us.
During the past year the people
of Alexandria have watched with
interest the erection of the tor
pedo plant in our city. We have re-
ioiced to see it rise. knowing that
it means large increase in the
population Of our city. 1t has
brought many things to our minds
"reminiscences Of long ago. When
;the rctrocession fever ragged IN
Alexandria in the early forties, am'
majority cf our citizens were
urging the return of Alexandria t.
the state Of Virginia, it was urge
that not a single government build
ing had been erected on the south
side of the Potomac river although
Alexandria was then part OF the
District of Columbia. The govern
ment at this time. notwithstanding
the act that our city is no longer
a part of the District Of Columbia
has erected plant which means
much for our old town. Coming as
it did in the wake Of the plant OF
the Virginia Shirbuilding Corpora
ton. we realized that blessings Of
ten come in q dual form, and Alex
andria, long Seeming to be neglect
cd. immediately took its propey
PLACE upon the MAP Of the coun.
try,S
We give and take in this world
and,wc must not suppose that bles,
sings are to be showered upon US
while we sit passively and act the
part Of receivers only. We Should
appreciate our blessings and per
form our respective parts is moi
only welcoming but making Suita.
BILE preparations to receive new
citizens who will soon be knocking
at our doors. We earnestly hops
all will realize the Importance Of
taking due tinotice and acting ac-
cordingly.
