BRIDGE IS REGARDED
AS SYMBOL OF UNION
Dream Of Years Nears Reality
AZ Arlington Memorial Span
Nears Completion

Washington-R)-A dream for
years-the symbol Of a united ma
tion-is rapidly nearing completion
in the nations capital.
It is the Arlington memorial
bridge ACROSS the Potomac river, ex-
tending from a point opposite the
Lincoln memorial on the Washington
side to near the Lee mansion on the
Virginia side. When completed it
will be one of the most superb struc.
lures of its kind in the world.
The bridge will have nine arches
with a draw in the center for the
passage of vessels. It is Of concrete
with granite used for facing. Its
length is 2.13S feet, with a roadway
so feet wide, bordered on each side
by sidewalks Is feet wide.
The architecture is simple and Of
perfect proportion. At both the
Washington and Virginia ends, py.
Ions 40 feet high, surmounted by
American eagles and adorned on
the sides with sculpture and inscrip.
tions, will be placed.
The sculpture on the sides Of the
pylons represents the recognition Of
the common bonds and aspirations
Of the nation, and the final complete
union. The figures on each end Of
the piers symbolic the harmonious
union in the arts Of peace-in inven-
tions and accomplishments Of art
and science connected with the his.
tory of this country. And the idea
Of union will be evident to all at q
glance.
1t is across this dignified bridge
that funeral professions will move
to beautiful Arlington, the resting
place of soldiers Of many wars. A
boulevard extending from the north.
west section of the city to Potomac
park will provide the approach on
the Washington side.
