FUNDS TO BE ASKED
FOR WATER FRONT
CONTINUED from First Page }

pearance and useful for commercial
purposes.
To carry out the plan in its en-
tirety would cost several millions of
dollars, and. for that reason, it will
have to be spread over a period of
years. as has been done in reclaim
ing the Anacostia flats.
1t Is likely, however. that the city
heads will seek to start the ball
rolling" in the new estimates, at
least to the extent of paving Water
street, which runs along the chan
mel. Removal of Objectionable build
ings along the channel has been one
of the aims of the present board of
Commissioners. Commissioner Oyster
has been especially interested in the
water front, and he indicated yes
terday that he would give strong
support to any item placed in the
estimates for next year to be spent
on the river front.
The feature of the proposed treat
ment of the channel is that 1t makes
ample provision for waterway COM
merce to the National Capital and a.
the same time would give the city
side an appearance in keeping with
beautiful Potomac Park opposite.
Details of Project.
The plan contemplates the con-
struction of a quay below the level
of Water street, where the boats
would dock. Commercial structures
would be back some distance from the
quay and there would be a boulevard
drive for vehicles.
Commissioner Oyster is alive to the
need of the fire department for re-
serve motor apparatus, which was
demonstrated a few days ago when
nine pieces of equipment had to 60 to
the repair shop at one time.
The Commissioner is inclined to
make liberal requests in the new es-
Inmates for the needs Of both the fire
and police departments.
1t Is virtually certain that the bud
get, which goes to the bureau Of the
budget in a few months, will contain
q request for more men for the police
department. Just how many addi-
tional officers will be asked for has
not been determined. But, with a
new precinct to be established at
18th and Rhode Island avenue north
east, this year, and the existing pre-
cincts In the outlying northw est
growing rapidly. it is felt that more
policemen are urgently needed.
