ROBERTS PREDICTS
new PARKING BANS
Declares Commissioners Will Be
Forced Soon to Impose More
Restrictions.

Prediction that the Commissioners
will be forced to adopt broader pro-
gram of restricting automobile park
ing in the immediate future, to re-
duce traffic congestion on the north
and south arteries. was made yester-
day by Peoples Counsel William A.
Roberts.
Use of the private automobile is no
solution to the traffic problem of the
District, Roberts said in talk broad
cast by Station WJSV, in which he
championed plans for construction Of
street car subways.
With the registration of more than
10000 cars here last year, the Dis
trict reached the national high
density, he said, the result being
that all drivers are striving and
scrambling for the use Of the limited
parking area on public space or suf-
fering overhigh charges in the
equally limited private parking areas"
Construction of street car Subways
would postpone expenditures of mill
lions of dollars for building new high
ways and the widening of existing
arteries through congested areas, he
said
Roberts believes the Federal Gov
ernment should assume a financial
responsibility for subway construc-
ton, because of the traffic congestion
resulting from construction of so
many large Government buildings in
a comparatively small area down.

ELGEN SELECTION
TO Be CONSIDERED
Senate Group Expected
Soon to Tackle District
Supply Bill.

The next meeting of the Senate
District Committee will be called by
Chairman King sometime this week
to consider the nomination of Riley
Elgen for another term on the Pub
lie Utilities Commission. The COM
mittee also may take up several pend
ing bills.
Within a week or 10 days, the
District Subcommittee of the Senate
Appropriations Committee, headed by
Senator Thomas of Oklahoma, is
likely to be at work on the 1886 Dis
trict supply bill. The local appro-
priation bill passed the House with
a total of $39 1908. 400. and with the
Federal contribution toward that total
remaining at the present lump-sum
figure of S5,700,000.
In preparing their estimates last
Fall, the Commissioners came to the
conclusion the needs of the city for
next year would amount to about
s44,000,000, and. believing the Dis
trict is now bearing a fair and rea-
sonable real estate tax levy. District
officials recommended Federal con-
tribution of approximately $8,300,00O
for the coming year.
In addition to considering the ques-
ton of what the Federal share should
be. the Senate subcommittee is ex-
pected to hear testimony on various
detailed changes that were made in
the bill in the House, such as the
elimination of funds for character
education and reductions that were
made in highway and water depart
ment improvements. The House items
for highway and water Improvements
would leave idle some of the gasoline
tax and water rent collections, which
can only be used for highway and
water purposes, respectively.

Sultan Orders Study After
Southeast Citizens
Press Protest.

Investigation of a new location for
the Garbage Transfer Station, now
at New Jersey avenue and K street

Engineer Commissioner Dan I. Sui

conditions. Possibility of moving the
station to Buzzards Point, to the sew
age pumping plant at the foot of New
Jersey avenue or to the site Of the
Districts sewage disposal plant at
Blue Plains will be studied. Another
possibility is construction of a brick
plant to house the station at the
present location.

LOW.COST DWELLINGS

600 Colored Families to Get Quar-.
ters at Moderate Rentals
in Area.

After nearly 18 months Of efforts
to acquire real estate for a S2,487 900
Federal low-cost housing project in
Washington. P. w. A. officials ad-
mitted yesterday they are beginning
to make substantial progress. They
said they hoped" to be able to break
ground on a site in the Southwest
section some time next Summer-or
two years from the time the program
was projected locally.
The Government has completed its
preliminary survey of the site and Is
now seeking options on individual
parcels of real estate. Titles are be-
ing searched, but no option yet has
been closed
The pending project is designed to
provide modern and comfortable
homes for 600 colored families at
rentals ranging from at about So or
$40 per room. AS with all Federal
housing projects, the title would be
held by the Government until the
payments are completed over an
amortization period ranging up to 81
years.
When the Housing Division Of P.
w. A. was organized July 20, 1888
two projects for Washington were
among the earliest plans. One was
supposed to be for white families
Secretary Ickes "earmarked' $4.30O,-
900 under the old set-up for the Hous-
ing Division to defray the expenses
of these two local projects. The
project for white families fell by the
boards long ago officials said noth-
ing had ever been done about it.
Howard Site Talked.
Troubles beSet the path Of the COL
ored project from the beginning. A
site north of U street, adjacent to
the campus of Howard University
was selected for the first venture and
was proposed as Howard City" The
area contained three square blocks.
About year ago Secretary 1ckes
announced that P. w. A. had with
drawn from the proposed Howard
City" site because the area was found
to be priced too high. He served
warming on municipalities that

high to permit genuine low-cost
housing" those particular areas would
be dropped from consideration and
projects would be located elsewhere
Admit Mistake.
Oficials admitted they had made
a mistake in seeking to establish
Washingtons first low-cost housing
project in a colored residential and
business area of relatively high
prices. The project. however. hac
originally been submitted to the
housing division, with the under
standing, Ickes said at the time, that
land could be secured at far lower
level than actual negotiation with
property owners was able to produce
Other sites in the city were can
vaSsed for weeks and months before
it was determined to build on the
present location in southwest Wash
ington.
With a desire to avoid condemna'
ton proceedings if possible and to
get land at a reasonable price, Off
Gals are zealously guarding every
move now being made. They are
confident at last, they said, Of com
pleting this project.
