NEW SHORT ROUTE
/ OPENED TO FALLS
Motorists Having Only D. c.
License Will Find Road :
Attractive.

A new short route to Great Falls
on the Virginia side of the Potomac,
consisting of all smooth macadam.
except the last mile. now provides
another delightful afternoon drive
for Washington motorists. Announce
ment of this direct road by repre-
sentatives Of the A. A. A. touring bu-
reau, who made the run last Wednes-
day, will be especially interesting to
those who have heretofore found 1t
necessary to travel many miles Of
dusty clay over more extended
route to reach the popular resort, as
we'll as many motorists who have
only District of Columbia license
plates.
The fact that the last mile just be-
fore reaching the falls is ordinary
dirt. and the usual objection to a
25-cent round trip toll charge near
Swink's Mill. might discourage some
automobiles who prefer to confine
themselves to the well beaten paths.
The entire trip unfolds a constant
changing variety of river views and
rural scenery such as will only be
found on out-of-way routes un-
known to the great throngs WHICH
usually IOTUi continual pTOCeSSlOIS
on main thoroughfares. Leaving the
city, the roadway parallels the canal
and within close view of the most
beautiful part of the upper Potomac.
After turning left across the famous
old Chain bridge into Virginia. a
curve to the right uphill leads over
state highway past many fine es-
tates and well kept farm lands
At Langley. 7.9 miles. the state
road curves left, leaving the route
which should be followed straight
ahead. From this fork begins the
newly built macadam which has been
constructed duYing' the past year.
While the road is not quite as wide
or as perfectly surfaced as the state
highway from Washington to Lang
ley, 1t is smooth and safe for those
who will use a fair degree of care
1t is interesting to note that every
precaution has been taken to place
danger signs and erect posts along
the sides where cars might run off
Into bitches. Before reaching Swink s
Mill and from that picturesque spot
on through to Elkins the roadway is
lined with all kinds of wild flowers.
one should continue for just 0.4 of a
mile, then turn sharp right over orr
dinary dirt road for a distance of
about two city blocks. then left to
mileage 1o.o. then right to the shady
grove on the bank above. the Grea at
Falls resort. 1t is necessary TO park
cars at this place, then walk down
-he steps to reach the grounds. The
trip can easily be made in good
weather in much less than an hour s
time.

be issued to persons with one arm
or one leg. Davidson and neighbors
who have driven with him think he
can. 1t is said.
Alleging that he was unjustly dis
eliminated against, Davidson applied
in the city court for a writ of man
damus, requiring the commissioner to
issue him a license. Judge Carroll 7.
Bond signed an order requiring the
commissioner to show cause by May
20 why the writ should not be issued.
In his petition Davidson stated that
he has been educated as builder by
the government, and has several con.
tracts which require him to traVei
from his home to distant parts OF the
city.
on April 3 he was granted an in
struction license by Mr.. Baughman,
the petition stated, and has since
been driving with a licensed opera l.
tor. He declares he is now fully
capable Of operating the car by him
self.
Il would be glad to do everything
possible to help Mr.. Davidson, sald
Commissioner Baughman, "but it would
be unsafe to allow him to operate ms
automobile with but one arm. with
these days of congested traffic II Is
difficult to operate an automobile
with two arms"

extending back from the red light

as a warning. The commissioner
said:
THE danger OF this practice.
particularly on a foggy night, Is
likely to result in loss OF life at
any time. The law states specih-
cally that motor vehicles snail
have two license tags, one TO be
attached to the front Of the ma
chine and one to the rear.
I'VE are going to ask truck
owners to see that their license
tags are hung on the rear OF the

changes to comply with the law
are carried out. and. If not, then
