Sewer System For
Garrett Park May
Begin This Winter
Favorable Weather Will Permit
Work To Get Under Way On
$4,000 Project

Installation of the new $4,000
sewer system to be constructed in
Garrett Park by the Washington Su-
hprban Sanitary Commission probab.
" viii begin this Winter If favorable
weather conditions prevail, Harry R.
Hall, deputy chief engineer for the
commission, declared this week.
Survey work is being pushed for
ward rapidly and it is expected that
it will be completed and plans for
construction of the system made
ready within short time. Engineers
are now surveying to locate new
homes built here since the water sys-
tenn was installed several years ago,
so as to include them in the plans, and
in determining the property through
which the sewer lines must be laid.
1t is planned to utilize Rock Creek
as the disposal point for the system,
which is to take in virtually all of
Garrett Park north of Strathmore
street, at the outset.
A trunk line sewer eventually will
be run along Rock Greek to turn the
disposal into the sewer lines of the
District of Columbia, connecting with
the pipe which at present terminates
just above the East-West highway be-
tween Silver Spring and Chevy Chase,
Hall said.
The new system will be paid for out
of the 100000 bond issue which the
Maryland Public Service Commission
authorized last month and which has
been disposed of by the sanitary
group and will require approximately
one month or As days to construct, ac-
cording to Hail.
Installation of the sewer system
was first agitated by residents of
Garrett Park several years ago, but it
was not until this year that the COM
mission voted to do the work. A report
recommending that the system be con-
structed was made to the commission
by its engineering department in
October, 1881.
The Garrett Park Citizens Associa-
ton voiced it's approval of the COM
missions action in granting the APP
peal of the residents of this commun-
ity for the system at meeting last
week and has forwarded a request to
the sanitary group to have one of its
representatives attend special meet
ing of the association next month and
explain the plans for work.

At the meeting Friday at Annapo-
lis when members of the board of
county commissioners from the 90
counties of Maryland gathered to pass
resolutions urging that gasoline tax
funds be allocated to each county and
that the counties be permitted to re-
duce their levies for public schools,
the principal opponent of these reso-
buttons was E. Brooke Lee, of Silver
Spring, member of the State Roads
Commission.
The resolutions, which were passed
by representatives of various boards
of county commissioners of the %
counties, were opposed by the group
from Montgomery County. Lacy Shaw
president of the Montgomery County
commissioners, said yesterday that he
and the other commissioners from
this county were of the belief that
the proposals advanced by representa-
tives of the other counties of Mary
land would affect no real economy but
would only pass the buck to Baltimore
City and the larger counties, such as
Montgomery and Baltimore.
Specifically, as outlined in more de-
tailed in another article in this issue
the resolutions of the county repre-
sentatives called for the following:
