REPORT Made
ON WHITE WAY
Matter Discussed at a Large
" Attended Meeting
Today
ALL TO COOPERATE
Would Mean Elimination of Many
poles and Wires Iron Poles 80
feet High Would Be Substituted

Following a meeting of a large dele
cation of King Street merchants and
other business men of the city held
TO-DAY at II o'clock in the rooms OF
the Chamber of Commerce, it was
announced that the proposition for a
white way on King Street are more
favorable than ever. The project Will
be taken under consideration by the
board of directors of the Chamber
of Commerce within the next few days
il was announced. The meeting was
presided over by W. A. Smoot, presi-
dent of the Chamber of Commerce.
IE. A. Feldtkeller, general superln-
tendent of the Alexandria County
Lighting Company, submitted his re
port on the work thus far accomplish
ed which was most gratifying.
Among other things he stated that
the white way has the appreciation
of the four public utilities that have
poles on King street, among them be-
ing the Western Union Telegraph
Company, Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company, Washington
Virginia Railway Company ana the
Alexandria County Lighting Com
pany.
According to the plans prepared,
it will result in the elimination of
a large number of the unsightly poles
which now adorn King Street. All
of the present poles and many of the
wires on that thoroughfare would be
removed and in the place of these
poles uniform iron pole thirty-five
feet in heighth would be substituted,
and there would be fewer poles than
there are at present. The completion
of the white way could it is pointed
out, be of incalcuabIe benefit FOR the
"ity, and undoubtedly would help all
lines of activity, it is argued.
Under present plans the white way
would extend on King Street from
Fairfax to Patrick Street, distance
of seven squares.
