OPEN GEORGETOWN
BRIDGE JANUARY |
New Concrete Structure Ex-
pected to Be Completed
Then or Soon After.

If all goes well. the $2.00o.000 con-
crete bridge crossing the Potomac at
Georgetown will be open to public
traffic to and from Virginia New
Year day. or soon thereafter. and the
old Aqueduct bridge, adjacent thereto.
then will be abandoned, except by the
cars Of the Old Dominion railway.
All that remains to be done to COM
plete the structure is the strengthen
ing and paving OF the approaches. the
paving of the bridge deck, the in
stallation of the electric lighting sys-
tenn and few finishing touches.
Illumination will be provided by
ninety incandescent lamps. topping
nine e-foot ornamental iron posts, now
on the ground.
Permit Issued to Lay Tracks.
Paving of the bridge has been de-
layed by the consideration Of certain
legal questions involved in the per-
Company to extend its tracks over
the bridge and build loop on the
government reservation at the south
end at Rosslyn. Those preliminaries
have just been completed and today
orders were given to begin the in
stallation of the electric railway sys-
tenn. Grooves are ready on the deck
Of the bridge and the yokes, rails and
railroad authorities say that it will
not take more than a months time
to complete the track extension from
M street to the south end of the
bridge, and Maj. Max Tyler. the
United States engineer in charge Of
to complete the paving of the bridge
within few weeks after the tracks
are laid.
Loop to BE Delayed.
Owing, however. to the fact that
the high earth embankment compris-
ing the Virginia approach will not be
completely settled for several months
yet, it Is impossible at this time to
build the foundations for the rail-
road loop. The operation of cars
over the bridge. therefore. will not
begin before next spring.
That situation. however, will not
delay the opening Of the new bridge
to pedestrians and general vehicular
traffic as soon as the paving work is
completed, about the first of next
year. A temporary roadway will be
laid over the Virginia reservation.
straight from the bridge end to the
line Of the Military road. at Hume
avenue, and used until the construc-
tion of the railroad loop in the spring
permits the use Of the permanent
highways to be built on both sides of
1t. When the new bridge is paved
the vehicular traffic now using the
old Aqueduct bridge will be diverted
to the new bridge by way Of the tenn
porary road.
Railroad facilities between Rosslyn
and Georgetown will continue as at
present, the Old Dominion line being
permitted to cross the Aqueduct
bridge until its new terminal can be
constructed at the Rosslyn end Of
the new bridge. The company has
asked, the War Department for per-
mission to build q, three-story con-
crete building for that purpose at the
southwest corner OF the government
Eeservation near Hume street.

L. 8. Not Party to War.
Meantime American officials con-
tinued their silence regarding the
proposal for American representation
at Lausanne, but the impression
prevailed that only an ofhclal op-
server would be sent by this govern
ment to report on features of the
negotiations which might affect the
important American interests in
involved. Primarily. the conference
is regarded here as an effort to set
tie differences between belilSerent
governments resulting from war 10
which the United States was not
party, and il is suggested that Tor
that reason full American particlpa-
1lon would not be appropriate
Can Keep U. :. Informed.
An American observer. however.
without authority except to report
phases of the situation which might
be of direct concern here. would be
in a position to keep the United
states informed as to- developments
relating to the freedom of the
Dardanelles and the protection Of
racial minorities in the near east,
both subjects in which the govern
ment is taking a keen interest
The British embassy was the first to
receive copy of the invitation from It's
home government, and Sir auckland
Geddes, the ambassador. took steps to
arrange with the French and Italian
diplomatic officials for a joint visit to
the State Department. Both the French
and Italian ambassadors are absent
from Washington. however, and most of
the staff of the French embassy has
gone to New York to greet Ambassador
Jusserand on his return to this country
tomorrow. The Italian embassy also
was handicapped by a lack of full Off
ciaI advices from Rome. the delay being
ascribed by embassy officials to the Ital-
ian ca binet crisis.
Despite these complications. it was in
dicated that presentation of the note to
the State Department probably would
not be long delayed, in view Of the
short time remaining before the
Lausanne conference is to convene.

King Victor Emmanuel was ex-
pected to return to the capital today
for conferences with political leaders
in preparation for the formation of a
new cabinet, and his choice of a pre-
mier was believed to lie between Wit
torio Orlando and Giovanni Giolitti,
both former cabinet chiefs.
Whether one of these men would be
acceptable to the fascist or whether
this powerful organization would be
content with anything less than an
all-fascisti ministry. was a matter of
speculation.
: Latest dispatches from Rome de-
scribe the situation as one of great
confusion, with wild rumors circulat-
ing on all sides.
The fascist organization, which
was formed by the extreme national
lists to combat the growing power of
the communists and socialists, has
reached a strength variously estimat-
ed at from 100000 to 100000 men, a
large part of whom are armed, drilled
