Then came the war and Gus was
snapped up and sent to the front.
To make a short story longer, our

Projects to Be Completed in
Decade, Hope of City
Planners

Creation of a system of double
park boulevards into the District
from every direction will be the
goal of civic development here
within the next ten years, in the
opinion of planning experts, il
was revealed today.
These boulevard systems, con-
sisting of two parallel one-way
highways, separated by a wide
strip of par6 and having, wherever
possible, wider strips of natural
scenery preserved as permanent
parks on either side, are now be-
ing carefully studied by the Ma
tfonal Capital Park Commission
and by members of the Virginia
and Maryland commissions APP
pointed to plan for the greater
Washington.
Three Systems Planned.
Three tentative systems of this
sort already are, being planned and
others will follow in the near future.
in the opinion of the commission
members.
The first meeting of the Maryland
and Virginia commissions with the
National Capital commission. to be
held next month. is expected to
give impetus to all three plans.
Lieutenant Colonel c. o. Sheriff..
director of public buildings and
public parks, is an ardent advocate
of the immediate construction of
parkway boulevard system between
Washington and Baltimore, the
route of which has already been
tentatively fixed. He has been as
sured the support of civic leaders
in the fight to bring about realiza-
ton of this proposal.
The Lee Highway Association has
received pledges of considerable
right of way. 800 feet and more
in width. for such highway sys-
tenn leading out of Washington to
the West. Early construction of a
Lee highway link, from Rosslyn to
to connect with the present Lee
highway route through Thorough
fare gap is also being projected.
boulevard to Shenandoah
Completion of the Arlington Mem
orial bridge will lead to construc-
ton of a magnificent park boule-
ward westward to the Shenandoah
valley. by way of Fort Myer, Fair
fax. Manassas and Wsrrentown, ac-
ccrding to plans now under consid-
Grafton. The bridge project has
been so designed as to facilitate
this project and wide bridge from
Columbia Island to the Virginia
short north of the Arlington bridge
will be built as q starting point
for this highway.
Construction of a park boulevard
from Washington to Mount Vernon
is regarded as a certainty before
932 when III" two-hundredtk an.
niversary of the birth Of George
Washington will be celebrated.
A park boulevard from Washing
ton TO New York :',''n' ~n ~gTo.'t

High as Garage
Space

If you want to put your auto.

look up good garage under
control of private citizens, for
the District charges heavy rent
for the use of the streets and
does not fail to make collection,
after eighteen hours.
Judge John P. Mcmahon, in
Traffic Court, decided that SIS
was a reasonable rent for the
space in front of Raymond For

amount when he was arraigned

Fear Negotiations May Follow

Assured of virtually the .unani-

refusal to settle the French debt
on the Caillaux terms--terms which
would have cost American taxpay-
ers several billions of dollars dur.
ing the next half centuryA-the
American Debt Commission squared
away today to another task Of debt
funding.
CzechosIavakia comes to the
Treasury on Monday to arrange
terms for settlement OF its debt OF
Silt 900, 900, all of which was OBJ
tanned after the war, while that
young republic was struggling TO
carve itself free from ancient mon

No real difficulty is anticipated

The Czechs will be offered terms
approximating those on which the
Polish, Finnish, Lithuanian and
Latvian debts have been funded.

Italy Is Worry
The next real source of worry

Italian negotiations, only q month

stands at $2,138, 000,0 being sec

French obligations. Real Difficult.
ties are anticipated, here for Italy's
capacity to pay" the phrase SO
eloquently used by M. Caillaux. is
generally conceded by Treasury of.
tic1als to be below that of France
The general belief that has al
ways prevailed in Treasury circles
that the Italians would follow the
french in whatever course the
french took, has not operated to
make the Debt Commissioners very
confident of the outcome of the
Italian negotiations.
treasury officials are anticiDat-f

moratorium for a period of years.
Moratorium Likely
While the Debt Commission NAV

made to effect final settlement
with the Italians. and to this end
II is expected that terms materially
more moderate than are contained
IN existing agreements will be
offered them. Strict application of
the principle capacity to pay" so
eloquently advanced by M. Caillaux
and accepted by this Government.
would make lenience to the Italians
almost necessary.
final settlement with the
Italians is keenly desired by the
American commissioners if for no
other reason than it would ac-
centuate the isolation of France
with respect to world war debts:
for Underneath the exterior of
diplomatic politeness there is real
resentment felt by some of the
American commissioners over
Frances course in the negotiations
just ended.
Press reports from Paris that the
French government may not ratify

CaillauX privately told them before
departing that he would recon-
mend its acceptance, and believed
