funds, amounting 10 $295,0oU, have
been reapportionl Il, in order that the
work may proceed without delay
Approximately $4,000 will be used
to put these roaus in passabie condl
tion under the revised apportion-
ment, according to Capt. Whi .ehurst.
There are 1863 miles of unimproved
but travelled roads in the District.
Capt. Whitehurst said, which are in
bad condition, and unless repaired
before Winter, undoubtedly would
mire any motorist attempting to use
them. Cinders and old street ma
terial will be rolled into the ruts In
these roads in an effort to make
them passable.
Repairs also will be made on mac
adam suburban roads which stretch
Tor 10S miles through the outlying
sections. About two-thirds of the
$4,000 allotted for the suburban
road improvement for the current
quarter VIII be USED on lneSe tnOr-
oughfareS and the remainder on the
unimproved roads.
Capt. Whitehurst explained that no
additional macadam roads will be
built in the District. Highway engi-
neers have learned, he said, that it
costs almost as much to make a
macadam road as it does a concrete
roaG and that repairs are needed
much sooner on the former type.
Suburban roads built in the future
will be Of concrete.

GAS FITTING RULE URGED.
Amendment Is Designed to Safe.
guard Public Here.

An amendment to the Districts gas
fitting regulations designed to prevent
'conscienceless" gas filters from lead
ing flue pipes from gas hot-water heat
efs into blank walls was adopted yes
terday by the Commissioners.
The change was recommended by
Plumbing Inspector McGonegal, who
+Teported to the Commissioners that a
number of flues had fallen down owing
to poor plaster and had revealed they
simply led into the bricks in the wall
and afforded no safety from gas fumes.
AS it now stands the regulation will
require fittings to lead directly into
the chimney OF the furnace or fireplace
before 1t Is certified by the Plumbing
Department.
