weeks, II. E. Barnard. executive
secretary Of President Hoover's

Responsibility for Highway Changes Delays School
JUNIOR HIGH IS
ALSO LACKING .
HALF AS|TE

Indications are now that an
early start on the proposed new
Fort Reno Junior High School In
unlikely, as responsibility for de.
lay in completion of necessary
highway changes is being shifted
back and forth between the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission and the District
Commissioners.
1t Is declared by Albert II. Har,
ris, municipal architect, that il
is impossible to proceed with
plans for the new school until
final decision is reached regards
ing changes in the highway.
which will determine the grade
on which the new school VIII be
built.
Comes TO Light
The question of responsibility
for the delay came to light in q
letter from Lieut.. Col. u. S. Grant
Sd, chairman of the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, to Representative Sim.
mons of Nebraska.
The letter declares that Grants
office prepared the necessary
plans in February, 1928, in com
pliance with a request from
Harris. The plans were sent to
Engineer Commissioner William
B. Ladue, who delivered them to
Assistant Engineer Commissions
L. e. Atkins. Major Atkins sug-
gested another plan prepared by
Melvin o. Hazen, District sur
veyor.
The Hazen plan was submitted
to the Park and Planning, Com.
mission In March, 1928, and dis
cussed at the regular meeting Of
that body. Apparently. however.
there is nothing In District build
ing records to indicate wether the
National Park and Planning Com
mission indicated which set Of
plans should be used. Ordinarily,
this choice would rest with the
commission, who would send the
approved plans to the District
Commissioners.
Nothing to DO
II the latter concurred In the
approval the Commissioners would
then hold public hearings and
order changes to be made accord
ing TO the plans.
Harris yesterday pointed out
that, no decision having been
reached in regard to the necessary
highway changes, nothing can be
done on the construction Of the
school. Only part of the site for
the proposed building has yet
been acquired, the remainder of
the property now being in process
Of condemnation.

CLAIMED.
BURDEN

One Of the main problems under
consideration at today's meeting
of the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, Is the pro-
posed commercial development Of
the Arlington County, Va, water
front.
Col. u. s. Grant Sd, director Of
Public Buildings and Grounds,
some time ago sent out question
naires to various civic bodies OF
Arlington County requesting their
attitude in the matter Of the Po-
tomac water front.
In reply received by Colonel
Grant yesterday the County Board
Of Supervisors say that they can
not allow great tracts Of land to
remain idle, worthless to their
owners and to the county from
the standpoint of income, while
1t is possible to place them in a
revenue-produeing condition, the
reasonable taxes from which are
urged.
One Side Only
Tt Is unnecessary to tell YOU"
continues the reply chat our only
water front which, because Of the
depth of the water, will accommo-
date commercial and industrial de-
velopment is above Key Bridge,
and because of its limited extent
every foot Of it is needed for In
dustrial and commercial pllr-
poses"
The supervisors claim that there
seems to be no objection to de-
veloping the washington side OF
Che water front while there is al
ways objection to the Virginia
side development.
Studies recently completed by
w. r. Partridge, consulting afchi-
tect Of the commission, with ref
erence to the Mall and the Wash
ington Monument grounds were
also taken up for discussion.
The commission also considered
the question Of eliminating grade
crossings at Michigan Avenue
and at Monroe Street in the
neighborhood of the Catholic
University. A proposed highway
change, involving Tilden Street
at Rock Greek Park, was taken
under consideration by the COM
mission.
Other Projects
"A study Of the projected George
washington Memorial, the cor
one of which was laid some
years ago by President Taft, was
taken up by the commission,
which was also informed concern
ing the plans Of q National Negro
Memorial.
The present status Of legisla-
ton In Congress affecting the
office Of Public Buildings and
Grounds and the National Park
ing and Planning Commission as
well as measures relating to the
future development of Washing
ton, we're considered by the com
uaissioll.
