Located There.
POWER PLANT AND RAIL
SPUR TO BE CONSTRUCTED
Both Projects Expected to Increase
Employment With Expendi-
lures of $5,1oo,ooo.

To clear the way for industrial de-
velopment in the Buzzards Point section
between the Navy Yard and the Army
War College, the Subcommittee on
Streets of the House District Committee
today authorized a favorable report on
two bills.
One of these measures would permit
the Philadelphia, Baltimore & Wash
ington Railroad Co., lessee OF the Penn
sylvania Railroad, to extend its present
tracks from the Navy Yard branch into
the Buzzards Point area so as to open
up the industrial development. The
railroad engineers estimate an expendi-
ture Of 100000 on this spur track.
Sponsored by Mrs. Norton.
The other bill was introduced today
by Chairman Norton Of the House Dis
trict Committee and would authorize
the closing of certain sections of exist
ing streets within the four-square area
purchased by the Potomac Electric
Power Co., which proposes to build a
power station at cost of approximately
$4,000, 900.
1t was emphasized by Corporation
trict Commissioners are heartily in
favor Of both projects and that this
means an extensive industrial develop
ment, which will be great aid toward
relief Of unemployment. He pointed out
that the Potomac Electric Power Co.
will reach its capacity in the Benning
plant In October and desires to have
this new plant at Buzzards Point ready
for operation Eventually the gas and
other industrial properties will move
into that new industrial area, Mr..
Bride stated.
Means New Employment.

HOUSE APPROVES
ANAL0STAN PLAN
Favors Government Accept
ance of Island for Memo
rial to Roosevelt.

The House today approved the Senate
bill providing for acceptance by the
Government from the Roosevelt Memo
rial Association of Analostan Island for
memorial to Theodore Roosevelt.
Representative Luce of Massachusetts,.
former chairman of the House Library
Committee, explained that this island.
containing about 80 acres, lies between
Arlington Memorial Bridge and Key
Bridge. BY reason Of its location and
its heavy growth of timber, it Is the
most picturesque area in the Dlstrlct
that has remained undeveloped. Luce
said, adding that, in view Of the charac-
teristics and tastes Of the former Presi-
dent, it is appropriate that TINS spot
should be dedicated to his memory.
"It Is intended that there shall be
nothing of monumental nature
erected, but that the island shall be
kept as nearly as possible IN wild
state, with only such ornamerltation as
shall not be out of harmony with that
purpose" Luce said There will, how
ever, be suitable walks and approaches
with such simple structures as may be
necessary for the convenience and COM
fort of the public.
This should make it a welcome addi-
tion to the park system OF the Capital,
bringing to all who dwell or visit here
one more opportunity for enjoyment,
preserving a beautiful spot that might
otherwise have been blighted By busi-
ness, and fittingiy testifying to the
esteem In which was held one OF our
most beloved Presidents.
"The association offering this gift Is
to be commended for its wisdom in de-
Gliding upon this form of enduring me-
mortal and to be thanked for its acqui-
sition.
