EVIDENCE OF PROGRESS
IN ALEXANDRIA NOTED
Correspondent Sees No Humor in
"Wheeze" About "the Only
Finished City"
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
For a number OF years the town OF
Alexandria, just south of this one.
has been the point for numerous out
bursts Of humor relative to its IAN
cientness." One Of the most fragrant
bits is that old wheeze about "the
only finished city in the world" Well,
though not a resident of that 'fn-
ished" city, I am a frequent visitor
thereto, and l have not failed to take
notice of the progress being made In
the city and nearby suburbs. One no no,
ticeable improvement that has been
made. mostly In the past year, Is that
of repaving streets and roadways.
Every one has had the opportunity
to read OF the valiant efforts made
by the city heads. civic and trade or
ganizations. ct al, to squeeze out OF
Congress sufficient cash to put the
results thereof, the most recent OF
these being a cut in the budget Of
the street and roadway improve
ment estimate from $4,000, 900 to $780,
900. That's economy. But, take trip
down to Alexandria and see for your
self what has been done to the
streets. They were not satisfied to
repave two or three streets per year,
but have finished a dozen or more In
the past twelve to fifteen months.
Also, they were not content with
filling up cracks between rocks or
cobbles but wanted and received
roadways built new from the<bottom
up. After looking over this bit Of
ingenuity, spice and progress. ask
yourself il all these wheezes you have
heard were properly directed. Your
answer will be an emphatic NO"
1t would be an enlightcning sight
for the members of Congress and
others who cannot see the wisdom OF
repairing streets to take trip over
and see what can be done in a short
space Of time in "the only finished
city in the world"

THINKS LLOYD GEORGE
KEY TO UNITED EUROPE
Writer Hopes Premier Will Take
"Short Step" at Meeting of
World League.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
But few brief months ago the
British premier assured his auditors
such political federation as shall
formally sanction and prolong the
practical world commonwealth al
ready achieved" Recent telegraphic
news tells us that the coming meet
ing of the league OF nations" is to
listen to Mr.. Lloyd Georges elo-
quenco on subjects unannounced.
Will he tell the nations now .snarling
at each others heels" just when this
short step is to be taken?
In war time he said: I'VE are learn
ing many things. We are learning
to know each other. We shall never
meet as foreigners again: we talk
to each other now exactly as though
we We're old friends and of the same
race" Then, after speaking of the
common struggle and coming
triumph. he foretold a common
brothe rhood. which will be the surest
guarantee for peace on earth and
creeds and nationalities to the end Of
all time
Will he now repeat all this at the
Geneva meeting of the league of ma
tions, and suggest that now is the
accepted time for taking that short
the step which the ex-crown prince
AYERS King Edward probably would
have taken had he lived, viz, the
step half a century ago advocated
by that illustrious son of France,
Victor Hugo, and which he foresaw
as the United States of Europe"
With our enthusiastic singing about
Our own United States" cannot we
let the song echo and re-echo east
ward. SO that all Europe may catch
the refrain and help Lloyd George
to take that "short STEP which
shall forever discredit secret, selfish
diplomacy and dangerous balances
of power" in achieving the United
States of Europe"
The whole new world appeals to
the old world: Take that short
step now, David Lloyd George.
