SENATORS FLAY
PARKWAY PLAN

The Senate is becoming i'm
patient at the manner in which
the George Washington Memor-
ial Parkway and the Memorial
Boulevard to Mt. Vernon are be.
ing developed and at the ultimate
cost of the gigantic program.
The impatience cropped out
yesterday when the Senate Dis
trict Committee held a hearing
on the bill which would make
$3,00O,000 Immediately available
for the purchase of land.
Senator William H. King of
Utah sharply questioned Lieut..
Col. U. S. Grant, 3rd, director of
public building and parks, on the
project, and elected the informa-
tiOn that it will be about $14,-
100000.
Senator King pointed out that
several years ago, while he was
a member of the House, he fos.
tered a project which would have
permitted purchase of about half
of the land for $500,000. The Sen
ator blocked action on the $3,-
100000 bill.
Senator Robert Carey of Wy
oming said he was dissatisfied
with the manner in which Mary
land and Virginia are tagging in
committing themselves to share
in the cost.

BOY WANDERER
SPURNS RICHES

Charles Ashley, IT, finds more
pleasant the adventures of IRE.
sponsible wanderings than he
does the outlook afforded by the
staid life of a business man,
even though the latter holds
promises of material wealth.
Is In Alabama
Ashley, whom Edward Frisch-
necht, jeweler at 73O G st, N. w,
planned to adopt, is back in
Birmingham, Ala, having alighted
from a freight car there yester'
day.
The paths of the old and the
young man had crossed earlier
in the winter when Ashley,
hungry and broke" appealed to
Mr.. Frischnacht for work. He
proved to be an apt apprentice
and impressed the older man
with his honesty.
Sends for Boy
Then he disappeared and after
due thought the Washington
jeweler sent for the boy, intend
ing to make him his heir, The
prospect of long years at the
bench and counter lost its lure
however and Ashley again took
to the endless road of a Wanderer
last week.
