HarbOr Conditions

Colonel Sultan Promises Action
The Districts Engineer Commissioner Lieut. Co..
Dan l. Sultan, sounded welcome note when, on taking
office he declared that conditions along Washington
waterfront must be improved.
The determination voiced by the Commissioner to
clean up conditions and to give the city harbor which
will it's purposes adequately should be potent
factor in remedyng what and has been for years
disgraceful situation.
Harbor conditions costing the District millions of
dollars year. They destroying the city's water
borne and deprivng the National Capital
of what its founders foresaw of its greatest ad
vantages
Although is seldom realized about fifty millions of
dollars worth of enters and leaves the city
by water annually.
In city where industrial activity is so vigorously cir
cumscrbed that commerce deserves and
support.
We do not encourage that commerce when we fail to
provide adequate docking facilities and fail to maintain
proper channels.
The business aspect of the river is the only factor
which commends itself to the attention of the city Wash
ngonans who realize the heathful recreation which can
be obtained from water sports nearly two million
dollars worth Of pleasure craft which use the harbor
Facilities for these craft notoriously Inadequate
and insecure.
Colonel Sultan will indeed give the ctv an auspcious
administration he force action on the plans for
harbor improvement.

The Firemen Gather
Alexandria the Host

AS Alexandria welcomes the advance guard Of visiting
remen who this year will hold their annual convention
In the Virginia city, Washngtonians should be pardoned
if they watch the proceedings with touch Of envy.
The colorful event which this year being held in the
neighborng city has become of the affairs which
Washington has for long looked upon as its own
This year through force of circumstances and possibly
tust little civic slackness Washingons part the
great concave of frefighers is lost to the National
Capital
Of course the Capital will have its imposing Labor
Day parade in which several fire units will participate,
but the Joyous din which for several years has echoed
and reechoed along Pennsylvania Avenue passes to the
streets of the usually more quiet Alexandria,
Despite the fact that the convention and parade are
being held in the nearby city, however Washington SILL
Is deeply interested in this annual convocaton OF the
volunteer firefighting forces of the country.
It has been fitting that the annual gathering snoud
be held in the Capital It is equally fitting that the
gathering should now be held in the old city which
gvmboizes so much that fine in the history and growth
of the nation.
ALEXANDRIA IS CITY OF SLOW BUT SURE
GROWTH ITS RESIDENTS REPRESENT THE
BEST OF OUR CIT1ZENRY. ITS PROGRESS IS BE-
ING ACCELERATED BY THE DEVELOPMENT OF
PROPER CITY PRIDE.
THE CONVENTION OF THE FIREMEN IS VEL
COME RECOGNITION BY NATIONALLY 1MPOR-
TANT ORGANIZATION OF THE DEVELOPMENT
WHICH IS TAKING PLACE IN THE CITY ACROSS
THE POTOMAC.
While Washington is naturally regretful at losing the
freens convention it nevertheless is happy to congatu
late Alexandria upon the fact that has won the pres
ence of the fire-fighters.
