A HAS GOOD IDEA.

In seeking to provide an
auxiliary reservoir to hold a
permanent water supply for
fire protection, the village
board has a good idea. Plans
to accomplish this purpose
may differ and have to be
kept within.th h needs of the
stream and the available
funds, but the idea should not
be abandoned or surrendered.
Such a reservoir will be badly
needed some day and the
time to provide it is before
that day comes. 1t will insure
better fire protection than we
now have and at the same
time will not reduce the vol
ume of water that the stream
has always afforded for all
town purposes subject to the
limitations due to seasonal
fluctuations.

Fire is an outlaw that not only
destroys growing timber, but

come.

for Development

Proper development Of suburban
sections Of northwest Washington
on both sides Of Massachusetts,
avenue south to the river and
north to Connecticut avenue il en-
.dangered through lack Of funds
for development Of a modern high
way plan, in the opinion Of En-
gineer Commissioner J. Franklin
Bell.
Seek Appropriation.
An increased appropriation for
this purpose probably win be re-.
qlested Of Congress at its next ses-
sion. The regular appropriation for
developments Of highway plan
y only $1,000. II Is believed that
at least $4,000 will Be needed to
resurvey the northwest section.
The survey which IS now being
followed has been outgrown," Major
Bell said. THE methods Of trans
portation have changed and we now
find chat the former plan was In
adequate in view Of present needs.
Grading must be changed in some
places and In others angles must
be eliminated. Some Of the streets
must be widened.
Development is now going on IN
accordance with the first survey.
There have not been sufficient
funds to enable the engineer de.
partment to work out new plan.
In some instances communities have
been developed in accordance with
the old plan with a result that
residents are dissatisfied with the
grading or other condfglons...
An appropriation Of $4,000 for
this purpose was asked in the last
District estimates but the item was
stricken out by the House ap
preparations committee. The ap
preparation was reinserted by the
Senate but was again eliminated in
conference.
