formulated and the financing arranged.

Bloom said, would be borne by the New
York firm, and that plans for its erec-
ton would be made If reasonable as
surarlce is given that the investment
would be warranted, According to the
plans drawn for the market, he ex-
planned, it would be possible to arrange

ADDITIONAL FUNDS
SOUGHT FOR ROADS
| IN DISTRICT PARKS
Grant Studies Possibility of
! Sharing in Gas Tax Reye-
nue. for Roads.
SEVERAL NEW PROJECTS
| UNDER CONSIDERATION
Legislation Would Be Required for
Diversion of Money, Director
Believes.

The possibility of sharing in the in
come of the District Of Columbia 2-cent
gasoline tax for the repair and con-
struction of roads in the citys parks is
engaging the attention Of the ONCE of
public buildings and public parks.
Lieut.. Col. u. S. Grant. Sd, director
of the ONCE, explained today that
more money is needed for construct
ing roads in the parks, as several new
projects are planned
Col. Grant pointed out that his Office
is studying the projected roads in
Foundry Branch Valley Park to con-
meet Reservoir road and Canal road
that will open this newly acquired rec
reaIional area. Lovers lane, near
Montrose Park, in Georgetown, Is an
other thoroughfare that needs atten-
ton, he said, for with proper develop
ment this roadway win form fitting
connection with Rock Greek Park and
a link between Massachusetts, avenue
and Georgetown. Roads also are need
ed in Anacostia Park, which is being
expanded, and plans are in progress to
construct a roadway between Bladens-
burg road connecting with the Eleventh
Street Bridge across the Anacostia
River and Boiling Field.
Congress has made available $122,-
900 for the Rock Greek and Potomac
Parkway, including money for new road
construction and some $4,000 for sea
wall construction. Some $4,000 has
been Appropriated for Anacostia Park
improvement and 100000 allotted to
Meridian Hill Park for development
work there.
The maintenance road fund now
being used by the ONCE of Public Build
ings and Parks totals about $4,000.
The maintenance cost has been lowered
through better construction OF new
roads.
In Rock Greek Park. it Is pointed
out. the old roads were not constructed
for the exacting automobile travel Of
today.
Col. Grant made it clear that he does
not believe his Office can share in the
District gasoline tax at this time with
out additional legislation and explains
that so long as sufficient fund is pro-
cured for the park roadwork, it matters
little whence the money comes.

picking berries in the vicinity lie rushed to her assistance and Leach loosed his hold on the girl and started to run.
 The young lad ran after him and at the bathing pavilion at Rockwell park notified Caretaker Joseph O. vizzio. who is also a special officer. A search was made in the vicinity and Leach was later picked out of q crowd by the boy. Noticing that he had been recognized, Leach agaln started to run, but he was overtaken by Civizzio and Scott.
 Attorney Conlon suggested to the court that it might be feasible to send the accused to New Hampshire where an aunt runs a garage. He did not believe that jail sentence would serve the purpose as Leach was released from the Hartford county jail only about five weeks ago for similar attack in almost the same place on a Bristol woman W hile she was on her way to work in a local department store. That Incident happened on December 14 l9aS, and he was sentenced the fol- lowing day by Judge William J. Ma lone.
 Judge Donovan agreed that the jail sentence would probably not serve as a preventive, but he also expressed concern for the New Hampshire town where defense counsel recommended sending the youth. He expressed the belief that Leach should be given a mental cN- animation by two physicians today and he reserved his decision until to- morrow, pending their report. He thought it might be advisable to send Leach to Mansfield and such action may be taken if he is found rational.
