ROAD WOULD JOIN
NEARBY COUNTIES
P. W. A. Sum Sought for Di.
rect Route From Hyatts.
vile to Tak0ma Park.
BY GEORGE PORTER.

Construction of q new and direct
| highway between Takoma Park and
Hyattsville is advocated by the Mary
, landNational Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission as part OF the
public works program Of the Mary
! land State Roads Commission, T.
Howard Duckett, member Of the Park
Commission, announced yesterday.
Endorsement Of the project by the
Prince Georges County commissioners
will be sought at the weekly meeting
Tuesday.
The proposed road would run along
Sligo Creek from the present terminus
OF Sligo Park drive. at Maple avenue,
Takoma Park, not far from the Wash
ington Sanitarium, to the intersection
OF the Ager and Riggs roads.
First in Prince Georges.
1t would be the first park drive to
| be built in Prince Georges County
and the first to make available to the
public the scenic valleys acquired by
the Park Commission for future de-
velopment.
Both its beauty and utilitarian ad-
vantages are being stressed by the
! Park Commission in an effort to have
State and Federal authorities ap-
prove the road
The proposed highway is less than
miles in length and would eliminate
! the circuitous 4-mile route from Ager
road to Silver Spring via Riggs,
Bladensburg and Blair roads, or Riggs
and Ray roads and Carroll and Flower
avenues. Duckett estimates the road
would cost about $4,000 a mile.
Surveyed Two Counties.
Its decision to sponsor the highway
was reached by the Park Commission
after a thorough study Of routes
which would afford a short highway
connection between the Silver Spring
and Takoma Park areas Of Montgom-
cry County and the Hyattsville and
Mount Rainier neighborhood of Prince
Georges, and at the same time consti-
tute part of a permanent park sys-
tenn and assist In the development of
present and future parks.
Inasmuch as the commission has
acquired all Of the Sligo Valley Park.

constructed a road in the parkway
from Blair road to Maple avenue and

erly to the Colesville road, the route

Would Boost Property Value.
Duckett also pointed out that the
State Roads Commission has author
lied the construction of q continue.
ton Of the East-west Highway
through Takoma Park. Eventually,
according to present plans, this would
be carried through Ethan Allen ave-
nue. to q point near the intersection
OF the old Bladensburg road and
Riggs road.
While this, he said, would be too in
direct to benefit the suburban area of
Prince Georges, it would be valuable
in the development of the portion of
Prince Georges through which 1t
passes.
The District Of Columbia, Duckett
added, Is prepared to complete con-
struction Of New Hampshire avenue
to the Maryland line and its contin-
uation in Prince Georges to the road
proposed along Sligo Greek would
open another valuable and direct en-
trance to Washington.

RIVERDALE, Nd, February s.
Despite assurances from the State
Roads Commission that they will send
the incorporated towns of Prince
Georges County their share of the
gasoline tax receipts soon. local au-
thorities went forward today with their
plans to hold protest meeting Thurs
day night.
Invitations were sent this week to
the governing bodies Of all towns in

in the meeting.
The invitations said that the mayor
and council believed "as individual

the concerted action of all the towns.

In the case of Prince Georges

.RITCHIE CANDIDACY.
SEEMS CERTAINTY.
Leaders of Both Parties Ex.
pect Announcement at
Any Moment.
Special Dispatcl. to The Star

Special Dispatch to The Star
BALTIMORE, February 3.-That
Gov Albert c. Ritchie has definitely
made up his mind to seek reelection
for a fifth term and will shortly make
an announcement to this effect, is a
well authenticated report In political
circles here
The report, which is said to come
from sources very close to the Cover
nor, is generally accepted by poll
ticians Of both parties who have been
expecting such an announcement for
some time. While Gov. Ritchie has
been nom -committal as to his future
political plans, since he was first
asked to announce his candidacy in
Pocomoke City last Summer, his reply
to the request, which was made by
State Senator Milton L. Veazey. left
the door open to announce himself
as either a candidate for reelection
or for the United States Senatorship
The latter, however, has never held
any attraction for the Governor, as
is well known to his intimate friends
otherwise he could have had the NOM
ination for the asking in 1926 when
Senator Millard E. Tydings was first
elected.
Tydings Out Of Running.
An effort was made during the past
week by an element in the Democratic
party antagonistic to Gov. Ritchie
to get Senator Tydings to enter the
gubernatorial arena, but the Senator
spiked" this at once with the posi-
tive statement that he was not can
didate for Governor and was going
to run for Senator" AS Senator Tyd-
ings' term does not expire until 1889
this statement definitely eliminates
him from any other Office.
While there are any number Of po-
tential candidates, DR.. Charles H.
Conley Of Frederick is the only one
who has filed his papers for the NOM
ination and the field is practically
clear for Gov. Ritchie, as it is not be-
lieved DR.. Conley or Mayor Howard
w. Jackson of Baltimore, who, while
not announcing himself as a candi-
date, has let it be known among his
friends here as we'll as in various

primaries against the Governor
The Governor has been under fire"
in both of the last gubernatorial cleo
tions, but each time was reelected by
increased pluralities and his friends
hold that 1884 will not prove an ex-
ception.
Smith Starts Ball Rolling.
The political pot started boiling"
on the Republican side this week with
the announcement of H. Webster
Smith that he was a candidate for
the G. o. P. nomination for Governor.
Smith, an outstanding lawyer of Bal
timore, has not heretofore taken an
active interest in politics and outside
of being chairman of the Public I'M
provement Commission of Baltimore
for several years has never held any
political office
That he would prove a formidable
candidate is generally acknowledged

recommend you get in touch with
your local fire department and arrange
to have the firemen, through their ser
vices and by arrangement with the fire
chief, hold periodic drills and get the
children used to signal system. After
the drills have been properly held, it
has been felt practical to set an alarm
unexpectedly and see the children file
out. They do not know whether fire

frequency of fire drills puts confidence

The spending of money in continuous
newspaper advertising is what has kept
most business concerns alive during the
depression. Those who tried to balance
budget by economizing on advertising
are the ones who are now in the hands
of receivers.
During hard times we must spend,
and in good times we must save part
of what we earn so we can spend when
times are hard, but there never can be
a let-up in newspaper advertising.
The attitude of the last congress,
which was to the effect that the last
penny possible must be wreSted from
the taxpeyrs, war veterans and govern
ment employees in order to balance
the budget and save the credit of the
United States, was a great mistake.

The Economy Bill should be repealed

no matter how reluctant members of
congress are to admit that fact or what
mental gymnastics they and the Econ
omists may indulge in.
The budget has not been balanced;
the public debt has been increased, new
taxes have been imposed and none re-
duced, and in spite of these facts
