DRILLS TO BEGIN
MONUMENT TEST
Ten Holes to Determine
Safety of Excavation for
Sunken Gardens.

The Giles Drilling Corporation of New
York moved its equipment into place
today and prepared to begin drilling
operations near the base of the Wash
ington Monument, 20 advise the engi-
neers how far down it Is to bedrock.
This information is necessary for use
in conjunction with the proposed sunk
en- gardens to be created in that vicin-
ity. Engineers of the Office Of Public
Buildings and Public Parks know that
there is no bedrock before about 40
feet down and are hopeful of striking
1t from so to 80 feet below the surface.
The National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission and the ONCE of
Public Buildings and Public Parks wish
to know the depth, so that the engt-
neers may be advised how far down 1t
is safe to excavate, in the vicinity of
the Washington Monument for the
gardens that are to surround the stately
shaft. w. T. Partridge, consulting ar
chitect Of the commission, has been at
work for some time on model OF
the proposed Washington Monument
gardens.
Data TO BE Established.
The drilling operations are to estab-
lish scientific data that will guide the
commission and Lieut.. Col. u. 8. Grant,
Sd, director of public buildings and pub
lie parks, in the preparation OF work
ing plans for the garden.
The mound that surrounds the base
Of the Washington Monument is of
filled earth, the engineers say, and a
visible base near the doorstep Is about
As feet above sea level. The base OF
the washington Monument does not
rest upon bed rock, the engineers ex-
plain, but Is on wide foundation OF
stone and cement, which in turn rests
on clay. When the Washington Monu-
nlent was started with private funds,
the foundation was found by the Gov
eminent, which took over construction
later, to be inadequate. Accordingly,
Government engineers Quadrupled the
foundations Of the Monument.
Ten to Be Drilled.
The drilling company is expected TO
be at work for about six weeks and Will
drill 10 holes in a circumference out
beyond the roadway that surrounds the
Monument.
The Government is conducting re-
searches into the subterranean water
conditions surrounding the Washington
Monument so that when the sunken
gardens are created they will not be
flooded by water, such as was en-
countered In the construction OF the
foundations for the new Government
buildings in the triangle. The gardens,
the engineers say, will have to be at
least II feet above mean low tide.
The National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission has It's plans for the
sunken gardens now In q tentative
stage and is waiting on the data to be
secured from the drilling operations be-
fore proceeding further with the pro-
gram.

ENDORSES 5YEAR
EXPANSION PLAN
ReicheIderfer Tells C. of C.
Committee City Should
Profit by Move.

Endorsement Of the five-year expan-
sion program Of the Washington Cham
Der Of Commerce was voiced today by
Dr. Luther H. Reichelderfer, chairman
Of the Board of District Commissioners
on the occasion Of a visit to his Office
by q delegation from the chamber on
the eve of the Inauguration of a week.
long campaign to officially launch the
expansion program. The delegation con-
sisted of Charles w. Darr, president OF
the chamber; Rudolph Jose, vice presi-
dent of the chamber. and chairman of
the hve-year expansion program; Mar
tin A. Leese, past president, and Dorsey
w. Hyde, secretary.
The purpose of the visit was to pre-
sent to DR.. Reichelderfer the outline of
plans for the expansion program.
OF Value to City.
II am deeply interested in the five
year expansion program which you pro-
pose for the City of Washington" the
Commissioner told the delegation. "A
well conceived plan of civic and econ
omic development is an asset of .decid-
ed value to any city. Large American
business firms have found it necessary
to plan their activities and their finan-
cling over period of years, and it
seems to me that this procedure should
prove equally beneficial when applied
to the modern community.
'I wish you all success in your pro-
gram of public service for the District"
Final plans for the launching Of the
campaign, which gets under way early
tomorrow, will be gone over at a meet
ing Of the board of directors of the
chamber at 8 o'clock tonight. A break
fast meeting of team workers and
their commanders, scheduled for 7:45
o'clock tomorrow morning, at the May
flower Hotel, will be the official send
of" Of the campaigners.
Thomas p. Lttlepage, general chair
man Of campaign organization, will pre-
side at the breakfast meeting. Team
commanders who will be present in
clude Edward Goring Bliss H. A..
Brooks, Darrell p. Aub, George E..
Keneipp and Ernest J.. Splitter.
Editors Views Sought.
The views Of Washington newspaper
editors will be asked concerning the
Washington Forward Movement at a
luncheon tomorrow to which the
editors of five local periodicals will be
invited.
Radio talks and luncheons through
out the rest Of this week and early next
week will mark the intensive campaign
of the chamber, which constitutes the
initial step of the body to stimulate
public interest and civic cooperation
in its extensive expansion program.
