such a proposition was originally
advanced by Government officials
as a means of relieving the housing
shortage in Washington. They now
emphasize that such is not the case
and say that more than a hundred
purchasers Of lots and houses at
District Heights are not connected
with the Government service.
At the same time, the officials
make 1t plain that the Government
workers have responded with
alacrity to the District Heights Of
ferings and are, of course, in the
majority among the ground Iloor
owners of the attractive land and
homes. 1t is believed that every
department in the Government
services has representatives at Dis
trict Heights and rivalry already
exists among the various depart
ments to see which will have the
largest delegation at the popular
Maryland development.
The attactive appearance which
District Heights presents with it's
pillared entrance, wide concerted
streets and attractive houses, to
the thousands of motorists who
pass 1t on the way to seaside resorts
has resulted in numerous sales.
Despite the fact that District

ket since July A it already has every
city advantage, including water and
sewerage which is being put in at
a cash outlay of $4,000.

Thousands of Westinghouse
Have Visited Severn River
Summer Colony
By WILSON l. Baker, Jr.
Gen. Mgr. Herald HarbOr. Inc.


The question of where Washing
4onians would swim during the
present summer aroused quite a
bit of interest last spring. but little
has been heard concerning the sub
ject for the past two or three
months.
The reason for this is not that
the people have ceased to be
interested but on the other hand
have shown their enthusiasm by
developing a colony on the Severn
river that has bathing that can. be
eQualed by very few in the
country.
During the spring when the
people were very much concerned
over the closing of the tidal basin
the Herald Harbor Company adver-
tised the fact that they had in
their colony. salt water swimming
that would more than make up for
the loss of the basin. After I'M
vestigation, Washingtonians found
this statement to be true and at
once began to purchase lots at
the resort and to daily visit the
beach. Consequently the company
developing the property erec1ed
suitable bath houses. constructed

life saving facilities.

at Herald Harbor a large number
Of civic associations. Sunday teftols
etc.. have held outings there and
some have gone so far as to pur-
chase large tracts upon which they
expect to erect cub houses where
they and their families can go and

next summer.
Though Herald Harbor has been
very popular during the present
