ward the developmentof certain sec
tions of the park which now are prac-
tically inaccessible, and that their
views will find a practical expression
in the forthcoming budget.
See Demand for Golf Course.
Roth officials believe there is de-
nand for a golf course in the north

mending that Congress proFlde 1unus
for this recreational facility: they Will
have in mind not only the Dement'S 1t

for the links is the section north of
Morrow road, between Rock Creek and

Reed Hospital.
New roads to be recommended in
the budget will have as their object
the general opening up of the northern
section of the park. 1t is stated they
will form connections with Military
road, Morrow road and Beach drive.
Relieve Start Should Be Made.
The appropriations to be requested
will not meet the total cost of the
improvements planned. 1t is the opin-
ion of Gen. Beach and Col. Sheriff.
that a start on the development pro-
gram, even though modest one.
Should be made now, and the work
