Cautious Driving
Over Bumps Urged
Mild Winter Causes Large Crop
of Highway Frost Heaves
Cause Explained

An unusual number of frost heaves
have resulted due to the mild winter.
A serious hazard to motorists driv-
ing at high speed the Minnesota
Highway department has issued a
warning to motorists to drive care
fully.
During a winter of alternate thaw-
ing and freezing, the disturbance is
greater than when it is steady cold
and the ground frozen several feet
deep.
Frost heaves are caused by water
brought up by capillary attraction Of
the soil to a point near the surface
where it forms layers which may
raise the road surface several feet, a
highway bulletin explains. - 4I
Where there are layers of soil of
high capillarity, usually in side hills
and shallow cuts, frost heaves most
frequently occur. I,oamy and silly
soils are usually most productive of
frost heaves and boils.
Excavation of road beds subject to
frost heaves, and thing and back fill
ing with several feet of gravel is the
method used by the highway depart
ment in preventing this condition.
Many sections are treated this way
every year, and other sections are
observed and marked for future treat
ment.

SCHEME CHARGED
Montgomery Delegate Makes
Vain Effort Against
Bill.
By stan Correspondent Of The Star.


ANNAPOLIS, Md, March 18.--Read-
ing into the record a letter from a
Washington real estate firm which
stated "12 or Is Washingtonians are
interested in a syndicate" that is buy
ing land in the Rock Creek Valley for
the purpose of selling it at large profit
to the Maryland National Capital Park
and Planning Commission, Delegate
Walter w. Dawson Of Montgomery
County yesterday made futile attempt
to halt the advancement of the Cram
ton act enabling bill.
The measure was passed on third
reading by vote of 81 to Is in the House
and now goes to the Senate, where no
opposition is anticipated.
Under the terms of the bill Mont
gomery County would borrow S1.200, 900
for the purchase of park lands and
Prince Georges County not more than
$4,000 if approved by the county COM
missioners. The Federal Government
then would advance so per cent more
as its contribution.
Text of Letter.

State of Maryland" the letter read by
Mr.. Dawson said. SIS laid out a park
which ties in with and becomes an in
tegral part of one of the most noted
recreation areas In the entire world,
Rock Creek Park. The AUDITING land
is now rather inaccessible and conse-
quently can be bought at very low
figures.
THE Rock Creek Park Corporation
owns between LOO and 1000 acres in
this section and has in addition an
option on nearly 700 acres adjoining
We know we have a wonderful
and practically certain chance for large
proflts-several hundred per cent in a
comparatively short time.
Land owned by the corporation costs
less than $400 an acre, including carry
ing charges to this time, and that under
option can be bought at less than $3.50
per acre, The extension of Connecticut
avenue, as tentatively approved by the
Planning Commission runs through 1t"
Cites Rockville Pike Prices.
Similar properties along the Rock
vile pike sold for $4,000 to $4,000 per
acre recently, the letter concludes.
Waving the letter as evidence, Dele
gate Dawson charged that the bill was
backed by group of Washington and
Montgomery County real estate opera
tors who would buy the land and sell it
at large profit to the taxpayers Of
the county with the sanction of the
Legislature.
Delegates Oliver Metzerott and Rich
ard Zantzinger of Prince Georges
County joined Delegate Dawson in yot-
ing against the measure.
