BOULEVARD PLAN
GETS NEW IMPETUS
Definite Scheme to Link
Forts Around Capital Is
Drawn Up.

Ihe proposal to lay off a boulevard
driveway that would encircle the Dis
trlct of Columbia and link together
the parks and old civil war forts has
been given new impetus through the
presentation of the plan to the Fine
Arts Commission by Assistant en-
gineer Commissioner John L. Wood.
For many years officials and citi-
zens, and notably the Board of Trade,
have been advocating a fort drive to
Join and preserve the old forts. but
thus far without success.
' 1t is believed at the District bri,d-
ing that submitting a definite scheme
10 the Fine Arts body will awaken
new interest in the project
- Many La Of tho fort sites would have
70 be acquired but all avenues and
boulevard already are in existence.
/ The work of creating the drive
way would consist largely of paw
ing some stretches of road, widening
other parts and installing improve
illumination.
Large sum Not Asked.
1t is understood the engineer de-
partments plan does not call for a
large appropriation to do the necessary
work Immediately, but contemplates
the setting aside of a part of the
regular annual street maintenance al
1otment to be- used in a regular and
continuous development of, this fifty
mile circuit
A continuous driveway that con-
nected the civil war forts would
necessarily become a belt highway
around the border lines of the District
for the reason that the old forts We're
located on high points along the
several approaches to the National
Capital from Maryland and Virginia.
A rough outline of such boulevard
would carry the tourist down through
Rock Creek Park to Potomac Park
thence along the river front to the War
College, across southern extremity of
the city to Congress Heights, through
-AnacoStia Parkway to Bladensburg
hack to Brookland and across the
northern section TO Brightwood.

its own experts say are not sufficient to MAINTAIN 1ay

Il will be noted that the maximum salary OF a letter

that amount of saving necessary to protect the faithful

member Of the union when | went to

| worked for this company about
one year, leaving them in the month
Of August, 1921, the first day after
the United Mine Workers had their
first battle in Boone and Logan coun-
ties during the recent insurrection.
However, some time during the month
Of July and August | worked about
a month at the mines of the Elk River
Coal & Lumber Co., Widen, w. Va,
but still lived at Adrian, w. Va. My
reason for doing this was that work
had become very dull at Adrian so |
went TO work for the Elk River people
about month, which is a non-union
mine. When quit there | went back
to Adrian, W. Va, and worked two
days for the Buchanan River Coal
Company. The officers of the local
union at Adrian, where | belonged,
found out that | had been working at
a nOn-union mine, so they assessed
fine against me of $500, initiation
fee Of $1,000, and dues of $3.50, which
made a total of $3.50. During the
two days that | resumed work of the
Buchanan River Coal Company my
credits amounted to about $1,000, and
this held by the union on fine, etc.
During my stay in this union field
