Commerce Chambers Move
to Link Washington
and Pacific.
HEARING Is REQUESTED
BEFORE P. o. DEPARTMENT
Committee Is Given Details Of
Survey Of Proposed New
Mail Service.

A movement seeking establishment
OF midcontinent air mail and pas
senger route across the country from
Washington to Tulsa, and eventually
to Los Angeles, has been started by
members Of chambers Of commerce in
various cities along the proposed CEN
trail route.
Application for hearing on the pro-
posal has been made to the Post Of
flce Department and announcement is
expected to be made shortly of the
date OF the hearings, at which cham
Der delegates will appear, it was said
yesterday at meeting of the aviation
committee OF the washington Cham
Der Of Commerce. which has been max
ing study Of the subject.
The matter OF the additional trans
continental route was placed formally
before the committee yesterday by
Lieut.. Walter Hinton, aviation commit
zee chairman. in the form Of o COM
munication from the Chambers Of
Commerce OF st. Louis. Mo-, and Tulsa,
Okla. The local chamber committee
voted unanimously. urging directors Of
the organization to authorize partici-
patton In the forthcoming hearings and
that strong Endorsement be given to the
proposed new route.
The chamber has been informed that
preliminary survey shows there will
be suficient air mail and passenger de-
mand to make the new line profitable,
such line giving much quicker serv-
ice than the northern line now run
ming West from New York and Chicago.
Washington, under the new plan
would be connected with the West
through Pittsburgh, instead Of New
York.
The communication from the St
Louis chamber stated:
Washington Is proposed as the East
ern terminus, the thought being that
there Is an adequate two-hour service
to New York that probably would not
offer any delay to New York-bound
mail. Washington, the Capital of the
Nation, which needs rapid intercom-
munication, Is now without direct air
mail connections to the West. This
proposed. new route would afford #
that connection. and would benefit not
only the people along the route but
the country as Q whole"
Charles H. Hopkins, representing the
Tulsa Chamber of Commerce, appear
ed before the committee on aviation
and gave the results Of detailed sur
vey showing the need for this new
air mail route.

LIBRARY DISPUTE
SETTLED BY M'CARL
Woodbridge Boundaries Need
Not Limit Location, Con-
tr0IIer General Holds.

A controversy as to whether the
woodbridge branch library, provided for
In the 1890 appropriation bill. could
legally be located anywhere but within
strict boundaries Of the subdivision of
Woodbridge as recorded on the plat
books in the surveyors ONCE was set
tied today by an opinion from Con-
troller General McCarl holding that
the library could properly be located
without regard to the exact boundaries,
so long as 1t served the greatest num-
Der OF people In the section known as
woodbridge by common acceptance and
usage.
The question was raised by Joseph w.
Cheyney, a resident Of the subdivision
Of Woodbridge, at ISIS Myrtle avenue
northeast, who pointed out that the
words of the appropriation act called for
the establishment Of branch libraries
'in Chevy Chase and Woodbridge" and
that the proposal to put the library at
22O6 Rhode Island avenue northeast
failed to comply with the law, as this
point was 231 feet west of the nearest
point In the Woodbridge subdivision as
recorded on the plat books. The Com
missioners, who felt that the location.
being in the heart of the business Sec
ton and Immediately opposite the
Woodbridge branch Of the United States
post office. would be the most suitable
possible, were loath to put the struc-
ture in the limits of Woodbridge, which.
they believed, would sacrifice the ad-
vantages Of central location. The mat
ter was referred to the controller gem
eral
The latter wrote: "It must have
been the intent Of Congress in appro-
priating funds for the maintenance of
a branch library in Woodbridge that the
funds would be used In such a manner
as to benefit the greatest number of
citizens In that community as it is
generally known, and as 1t exists today,
without reference to what the original
real estate subdivision by the private
owner included"
