Lives ImperiIed
By international News Service

NEW LONDON, Conn, Oct. 81
With a : high wind stirring up a
heavy sea off Block Island today
naval officials made no effort to
continue work toward salvaging the
S-51, probable tomb of many officers
and men of the stricken submarine.
Lighters, that had been engaged in
effort toward finding the bodies, did
not leave their moorings here or at
Block Island, to which ports they
ran Saturday when changing
weather conditions made work
above the sunken submarine q
menace to life.
That the Navy Department will
hand the task of salvaging the
Ssh to private contracting firm
is considered likely here. Reports
have been current here that the
Merritt Chapman Scott Company,
largest marine wrecking concern
on the North Atlantic coast, had
received such contract. Officials
at the submarine base here de-
clared that while they had no in
formation concerning such a con-
tract. they would not be surprised
IL a private company were asked to
salvage the ship. The task is ex-
pected to be one Of the greatest
ever undertaken in New England
water.

Friends Of Late War President
Seeing Fitting Honor in
Proposed Dedication

Dedication Of the proposed park
boulevard from Washington to the
Shenandoah valley as the Woodrow
Wilson Highway, in memory Of the
war President. is being advocated
today by friends OF the late leader.
The highway. starting at the Arl-
ington Memorial Bridge. Is to pass
over Arlington Heights on & line
continuing the axis of the Mall.
from the Capitol to the Lincoln
Memorial. The boulevard win then
pass through Fairfax, probably join
ing the Lee Highway route there.
The proposed Wilson Highway
would join Washington and Staun-
ton, Va, the birthplace at Wood
row Wilson.
1t is on this route, just back OF
the Potomac river shore, that the
site OF the Wilson Memorial viii
be located, according to plans Of
supporters OF the memorial project.
The National Woodrow Wilson
Memorial Association, with head.
quarters In the Transportation
Building. is now making q study of
the project.
The woodrow Wilson boulevard,
to be in keeping with the Airing
ton Bridge and the Wilson Memorial
developments, will have to be one
of the finest highways in the
country, in the opinion Of supporters
of the plan.
It is recommended that the bolilc-
ward take the form OF a double

LONDON, Oct. 5.--Great Britain

PARK
PLAN To De
PUSHED
Lee Highway Association
Selection of National Road
to Stimulate Action

Establishment of the proposed
Riverside Park from Washington
to Great Falls is likely to be given
considerable impetus during the
coming winter by the decision of
the Lee Highway from Washing
ton westward on a route parallel
ing the Potomac river to Great
Falls, in the opinion OF park ex-
perts.
The plans for the Lee highway
call for a broad boulevard With q
strip OF park land on either side,
the total system having a width OF
at least 800 feet.
1t is hoped that the entire area
between the Lee highway and the
Virginia shore of the Potomac
from Washington to Great Falls
may be acquired eventually as
permanent park area.
Land from the Arlington farms
north to Rosslyn, a distance OF
nearly mile, along the Virginia
shore of the river has been pur'
chased by the Arlington Memorial
Bridge Commission and the park
development of this area Is assured,
it was stated.
The riverside parkway project
has been under consideration for
several years and has been ap'
proved by civic leaders, park ex-
perts and those interested in the
development of the National Capital
as one of the most beautiful cities
on earth.
The coming winter is expected to
witness the dedication by Congress
of several old army fort sites along
the river shores below Washington
as park areas. These forts make
up a considerable portion of the
river banks between Washington,
Mount Vernon and Fort Washing
ton.
Dedication Of Fort Hunt and Fort
Foote was asked of Congress last
year, but the plan failed in the
final rush of business before the
close of the session.
Designation of the site Of Fort
Humphreys as a national forest q
few months ago is expected to ma
terialIy aid the park development
from that point northward.
The projected development of the
Mount Vernon boulevard along the
Virginia shore south of Washington
will be completed before 1882, when
the 200th anniversary Of the birth
of George Washington will be in
ternationally celebrated under the
leadership of the United. States
Government, according to present
plans.

Weeks IS HERE,
BUT REMAINS
HIDDEN
Secretary Of War Returns 60
Capital Incognito Move
Enenfs Secret

For the first time in recent
political history, q Cabinet officer
is in Washington completely In
cognito.
Secretary OF War Weeks has been
In the city since Saturday, but no
one, outside Of a few intimates in
the War Department, knows where
he 10.
Efforts today to ascertain his
whereabouts were unavailtng. The
Secretary was at the White House
for luncheon Saturday and con-
ferred with q number OF army or
ficials yesterday, but he has made
no appearance at his office and is
remaining under cover.
It Is believed that Secretary
Weeks IS stopping at the country
home Of q friend In the suburb 0f
the city, but nothing definite Is
known as to his whereabouts. II
is explained that the Secreta1y's
reason for surrounding his where
abOtIts with secrecy are to avoid
pressure on his time from politi-
clans, newspaper correspon
and others, and to remain quiet.
He has been i'll Tor several months
and has not been in Washington
since June, when he was removed to
his country home in New Hamp-
shire.
1t il generally believed that Sec
rotary Weeks win retire from tire
Cabinet within the next few days.
In some circles 1t Is said he win
resign when President Coolidge re-
turns from his trip to the ATneri-
can Legion convention in Omaha,
and that his successor win be APP
pointed immediately. While there
Is no definite surmise as to who
his successor will be, close observers
believe Acting Secretary Of War
Davis win be given the place.
