MERCHANTS WANT RIVER
LANDS FOR INDUSTRIES
Commissioners Asked to So Desig-
nate Sections Under the
Zoning Law.

A committee from the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association yesterday
laid before the District Commission
ers a request that certain sections of
the District be designated for indus
trial purposes under the coming law
I'VE are very much gratified at the
result of our conference said Charles
j. Columbus, secretary of the associa :
ton, after leaving the Commissioners
office. The recommendations of the
committee follow:
That all land parallel to the river
front and Eastern branch and not de-
sired for public use by the federal or
District government shall be denomi- =
mated as industrial territory by the
Commissioners.
THAT all land parallel to the steam
railroads shall be denominated indus
trial territory.
The committee feels that the ter
ritory west of Rock creek and south
of NJ street northwest lends itself ad-
mirably to industrial uses; that the
territory east of -14th and south of
Virginia avenue (along the line of
the railroad) likewise offers an ideal
situation for industrial plants.
"The committee asks that excep-
tion be made in the matter of manu-
Dental districts, such as ice plants,
bakeries. dairieS and industries of a
similar nature, namely, manufacturers
of highly perishable food products.
This plea is made purely in the in
terest of public economy and conven-
ience. 1t is the opinion of the COM
mittee that ice plants. bakeries and
dairies now located or to be in the
future located in residential districts
should be permitted to enlarge as the
demands of the respective businesses
require"
