OPPOSE AIRPORT
/. AT POTOMAC PARK
u. S. Experts Advise Group
Seeking Lease That Site
Is Unsafe.

Commercial aviation interests endeav-
oring to secure lease of ground for
an airplane landing field in Potomac
Park, near the Tourist Camp, have
failed in their efforts. Lieut.. Col. u. S.
Grant, Sd, director of the Office of
Public Buildings and Public Parks, was
requested to examine the project and
turned the matter over to the experts
in the Aeronautics Branch of the De-
partment of Commerce They have adj
vised Col. Grant that the Potomac Park
site is not feasible for an airplane land
ing field. as there is insufficient room
to land planes with safety to the public.
A commercial airplane concern has
secured permission to use the tip of
Hams Point for seaplane landings, and
1t is planned to start this service in
the Spring.
The fact that earth from the exca-
Walton at the new Department of Com
merce site at Fifteenth and B streets is
being dumped in Potomac Park gave
rise to the report that a commercial
landing field was being prepared. Col
Grant today explained this by pointing
out that the earth is being placed in
that location to raise the level of the
ground, which has been subject to
floods in the past, and to aid the drain
age of that area.
