KUTzPROPOSES
NEW BUILDING
LAWS TO MAKE
D. .C.BEAUT|FUL
by BILL PRICE.

For the Identification OF Wash
ington along the most modern archi-
tsctural lines, Brigadier General
Kutx, Engineer Commissioner OF the
District. has drawn a proposed bill
for enactment by Congress providing
for zones" OF building construction
In this city.
The bill is tentative, has not yet
been formally passed upon by the
submitted by General Kutz to the
Board of Trade, Chamber of Com
merce, Federation of Citizens Asso-
Citations. Merchants and Manufac-
turers' Association and other civic
bodies to obtain their, views upon
It.
General Kutz has asked that rep
resentatives OF these associations and
others interested give consideration
to the proposed law and attend q
conference with him January % for
the purpose Of discussing the matter
preliminary to a public hearing be-
fore the Commissioners at some flu
ture- date. ..
Restricts Trade Locations
The bill restricts and regulates the
locations OF trades and industries, the
location OF buildings designed for
specific uses and regulates the heights
OF buildings in the District
The project was one dear to the
heart OF General Kutz before he LETT
a. Engineer Commissioner in July,
1877, to take up active duties in the
army. He had often discussed IL with
the other Commissioners, and there
was an agreement among them that
at the proper time they would con-
slider legislation.
On August 81, 1915 the late Senator
Gallinger introduced a bill regarding
this matter In the Senate, the bill be-
ing based on q New York city law
covering the same subject. This bill
was referred to the Commissioners for
report, and in applying II to local con-
ditions existing in Washington, it was
believed that various changes should
be made In It's provisions. A substi-
tute bill was prepared by the building
inspectors office, and 1t was the iE-
tention at that time to hold q public
hearing. but all action in the matter
was postponed on account OF the war
Now that General Kutz has re-
turned, he has revived the proposed
measure, and hopes, after a general
discussion OF its terms, to recommend
to the Commissioners thesadoption OF
some such legislation, which he be-
Heyes is greatly needed.
