Possibility the residents OF
Cherrydale will soon see the aboli.
ton Of the dangerous curve in the
Lee Highway as it cuts around
the Cherrydale Bank, loomed
brighter today with the informa-
tion surveying crews of the Vir.
ginia State Highway Commission
have been going over the ground
during the past week, particularly
the right of way of the Washing
ton and Old Dominion Railway.
Proponents of the abolition plan
claim such action can mean the
commission is definitely interested
in the plan. They also claim the
commission can be expected to
take favorable action on the mat
ter at it's next meeting at Rich
mond next March.
At present, the plan which is
being pushed calls for the consid-
Grafton of a cutoff on the opposite
side Of the bank.
The only controversy which ex-
lists over the issue is as to whether
the old road will continue to be
used along with the new one, max.
ing two lanes of one-Way traffic
through Cherrydale, or whether
the present road will be aban-
dOned altOgether.

PRESIDENT s NO
HITS AIRPORT

President Roosevelt said today
that the impression that the Ad-
ministration favored the plan for
an air field on East Potomac
Park was not correct.
In fact, the President turned
the Potomac Park airport down
flatly and said that various au-
thorities are still studying the
Gravelly Point site, on the Vir-
ginia side of the river, opposite
Potomac Park. The President
said today that East Potomac
Park was too near the city for
an airfield.
With Secretary of the Interior
Harold L. Ickes heading the list
of objectors, several more pro-
tests today were added to the
proposal to convert Hains Point
into a municipal airport.
Objections to the plan were con
cerned principally with the elimi-
nation of one of Washington's
chief beauty spots if the point
were turned over to airplanes.
It was said that the park, with
its avenues of cherry blossoms,
would be ruined both as a beauty
spot and as a recreational ground.
