FOR new BRIDGE

pletion of Arlington Me
mortal Project Plans.

President Harding. in a letter
to Speaker Giliett yesterday. trans
mitted the report Of the Arlington
Memorial Bridge Commission. AK
ing an appropriation Of t1s,ooo. TO-
gethsr with the request Of the Blu
reau Of the Budget that the appro-
priation be expedited.
The commissionis report explains
that the question Of q suitable
bridge between Arlington and
washington has been under con-
stdefation for thirty-nve years, and
. number Of studies have been made
on the subject
Should the commission see At TO
take up the study Of the proper de-
sign at the present time IL would
only be necessary for funds TO be
provided to bring the designs up
to date and to harmonic them with
the design and construction OF the
lincoln Memorial. the report stated.
The communication Of the Bureau
Of the Budget explained that, as
other appropriations and projects
are 50 closely linked with the pro-
posed bridge, it would be desirabiU
that the appropriation be approved
without delay.
1t stated that IL is estimated that
several times the amount OF the
appropriation can be saved by au-
thorizing the public to dump waste
material between the Lincoln Me-
mortal and the river. which. the
letter explains. can only be done
advisedIy after the plans for the
bridge have been definitely decided
upon Several hundred thousand
dollars could be saved by using
waste material from DREDGING OF
er.tions in the river in such a way
as to create q causeway between
Analostan Island and the Virginis
shore, thus shortening the length
of the bridge.
