POLICE WAREHOUSE
GRANT REQUESTED.
Maj. Brown Says $4,000
Aid Would Save District
'$1,2O0 a Year.
Maj Ernest W. Brown, Superintend-

Maj. Ernest W. Brown, Superintend-
ent of police. recommended to the Com
missioners today that they ask the
Public Works Administration for a
grant of $4,000 to construct ware
house for the Police Department on
District-owned property on Bladensburg
road northeast, opposite Mount Olivet
Cemetery.
A warehouse will be needed, Mai.
Brown said, to carry out his plans to
re-establish the old fourth precinct in
Southwest Washington. The old fourth
precinct station is now used as a ware
house.
Aside from providing the Police De-
partment with modern and adequate
storage facilities, the proposed ware
house, according to the superintendent,
would result in a saving to the District
of approximately $1,000 a year now
paid to private storage concerns 1or
protection of certain property that can
not be stored in the precinct station.
Re-establishment of the old fourth
precinct, is one of the major plans in
Mai. Browns program for increasing
the efficiency and effectiveness of the
department. He also has recommended
construction of a central police station
in the vicinity of Thirteenth and K
streets to serve the area now covered
by the first precinct.

BRIDGE REMOVAL
PLANS ARE MADE
Maj. Arthur of War Department
to Send in Aqueduct Span
Estimates.

Mai Joseph D. Arthur, jr. War De-
partment District engineer for this area,
was engaged today in preparing esti-
mates for removal of the remains of
the old Aqueduct Bridge in Georgetown.
These estimates are to be presented to
the Civil Works Administration, where
approval is foregone conclusion. 1t
is said.
Maj. Arthur explained that. due to
the necessity for using a maximum of
man-power and a minimum of ma
chinery-the policy of the Civil Works
neutrality-suspicious. plans for the
removal have to be considerably re-
vised. The estimates will go forward
today, he said.
The District of Columbia will profit,
not only by removal of the remains of
the bridge, but also because the stone
in the piers will be transported to
Anacostia Park to be used there in
the seaWalls.
The last estimate made for removal
of the old bridge by the United States
Engineer Office was S100, 900, Maj. Ar
thur said. On several occasions the
Secretary CT War attempted to secure
funds from Congress for the removal,
but without success.
