sage of Small Craft to
Wakefield Manor.

Thousands of dollars are being spent
for restoration of the grounds and
homestead at Wakefield Manor, Va, the
birthplace of George Washington, but
not one cent is being expended so that
small craft from the Potomac River
may go into Popes Greek. which runs
almost to the Wakefield doorstep.
Reposing in the files of the United
States Engineer Office here ere plans
and estimates for developing a suitable
channel from the Potomac River and
the erection of needed adjuncts to nav
igation These plans were drawn up
and approved by Maj. Brehon Somer-
veil, Corps of Engineers, U. S. A., who
was district engineer for the War De-
partment for the Washington area, De-
cember 16, 1927 Wakefield Manor was
then under jurisdiction of the United
States Engineer Office, but it has since
been turned over to the keeping OF the
National Park Service of the Interior
Department.
Funds Not Available.
Waterway developments would be
done under jurisdiction. of the United
States Engineer Office still, but funds
for the development are lacking.
Previously. the Government has de-
provement on the basis of project
for which Congress would regularly ap-
propriate money. commercial necessity

door of the newly restored Washington
residence. based on the best historical
information obtainable, is only 3 or
feet deep for an area of some 60 or 70
acres. To the uninitiated. the stretch
of Popes Greek looks like the Potomac
River with islands in the offing.
Provision of Aging Plans.
The plans of the United States En-
gineer Office. which lie aging in the
files for lack of attention and appro-
priations would provide for two stone
jettieS each 2,400 feet long, costing
approximately sl530O0 This develop
ment would keep open suitable chan
mel, about three-quarterS of a mile in
length, leading from the Potomac River
to Pope's Greek. Under the program,
a turning basin would be provided and
wharf, costing about $4,000, to
which pleasure boats could tie up.
The channel from Popes Creek to
the Potomac, that was used for boating
in the days of the Washington family
and provided cheap means of trans
portation, has been filed with silt and
debris through the years, until it has
now become chokad up and unfit for
even small boat navigation. Prelimi-
nary plans contemplate a channel
about 100 feet wide. with the present
curved banks straightened
