TRAFFIC,
THOUGHTS
BY Donald Med Ougal-
Warmer Weather Coming.

Warmer Weather Coming.
1t must have been an awful
shock to the District committee
when it's own New York experts
testified it would cost $25, eco 600
to straighten out Washington
traffic jam. Bet they don't sum
mon any more experts for a long,
sweet while.
We'd like to see q couple Of
school experts from Boston, for
instance, telling the committee
how much a decent educational
system would set us back.
Or a snow-shoveIing authority
from Reykjavik estimating the
cost of keeping the streets navi-
gable In winter time.
We'd like to watch the commit
tee gasp while a couple Of crime
experts from Chicago, say, estis
mated what a decently paid and
fairly treated police force would
do to the Treasury.
For advice on fire apparatus
the committee probably will send
to Hades only If they keep on
the way they've been going the
last ten years, they won't need to
send. The District will soon be
there. That'll tickle Congress to
death. Look at all the economy
they could boast about, not hav-
ing any snow-shoveling bills to
pay. They'd have an awful briIn-
stone shoveling bill to pay-but
they're going to have that any
how. From now on. Until they
get off the Districts neck.

we're not worrying any.
They're going to dredge it SOS
to make it navigable for cattle

south line of Zigamaroo county. Y
What struck Us especially In
this particular item was that
neither the citizens along the
bank Of the sparkling, ripping,
Higgins crick nor the residents
OF Zigamaroo county, nor the
adjacent county Of Foolemagin,
were required to pay any part
Of the cost.
The Big Idea.
Now for the idea: Why not tell
the District committee to keep
their old $35, 200 snoW-removaI
handout, and 90 round to the
rivers and harbors pl1ilant hropistS
and ask them TO send dredge
UP to Pennsylvania avenue and
Seventh street at our expense and
make the stream navigable Tor
goloshes as far as the Treasury
you probably couldn't interest the
committee in anything beyond
that.
Congress is always 50 willing
to appropriate money for dredg.
ing that maybe they'll let US
spend some OF our money to dig
ourselves out with, that way.
And as Pennsylvania avenue is
now, dredge is about the most
appropriate piece OF apparatus
that Mr.. Hacker can use.
