|PARK IS PROPOSED
AT Fl. HUMPHREYS
Committee Chosen to In.
uuire Into Possibilities
of Development.

A committee representative OF Army
and park authorities was named
yesterday to inquire into possibilities
of utilizing part of Fort Humphreys
Va, as a riverside pleasure drive and
for recreational purposes.
This was decided upon after a meet
ing held in the. Office of Maj. Gen.
Edward M. Markham, chief of Army
Engineers. The committee, which
proposes to make a firSt-hand in
vestigation of what can be done to
bring about the proposed program,
consists Of Maj. Malcolm Elliott, aide
to Gen. Markham; c. Marshall
Finnan. superintendent of the Ma
tional Capital Parks; John Nolen, jr.,
director of planning of the National
Capital Park and Planning Commits
sion, and Thomas S. Settle, commits
sion secretary.
This group will go over the ground
when the weather gets clearer, so that
report may be laid before the COM
mission on it's meeting March 1928.
Oppose Land Sale.
Gen. Markham recalled that he was
the commanding officer at Fort Hum
phreys and that he opposed the sale of
land, SO that it might be preserved
for governmental purposes. Repre-
sentative Smith, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia. in whose district the fort lies.
attended the conference and offered
any help possible. The special COM
mittee will cooperate with Col.
George r. Spalding. now commanding
Fort Humphreys, who attended yes
terday'S meeting.
Two main aspects of the problem
! were considered yesterday-the near
ness to Washington of this potential
/ recreation area, on which camps and
trails for hikes, as we'll as horseback
| facilities might be available 20 miles
from the National Capital. The his
toric value of the Army post was en-
phasized, inasmuch as it was part OF
the original Fairfax estate with the
venerable Belvoir, the Fairfax home
now in ruin. The placing of historical
markers in that area was a posi-
bility discussed, together with con-
struction, with the use OF G. G. G.
workers. of motor highway in that
region along the Potomac River.
Favored by Markham.
Gen. Markham, an ex-ofilcio men,
ber of the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, indicated he
was sympathetic with any develop
ment of recreational facilities not in
| compatible with the Army interests.
Some form of control as between the
Army and Office Of National Parks,
Buildings and Reservations, Interior
Department, will have to be worked
out, If Fort Humphreys park is de-
veloped. The Army's spokesmen made
it clear that Fort Humphreys Is pri-
marily q military post and that its
military future as such must be con-
sidered. While the post covers some
5000 acres, the Army authorities said
that the Engineers, who are stationed
there, utilize large tracts in maneu-
vers and surveys. Ultimately, under a
broad program now being considered,
a motor highway would be con-
structed, passing through part OF Fort
Humphreys, from Mount Vernon to
Wakefield Manor. Va, where George
Washington was born.
