WALK LIGHTS
AT C0RNERS
BY A. J. DRISCOLL,
Citizens Association Editor

The Citizens Forum of Columbia
Heights, at meeting last night
in the Powell School, Endorsed a
report by DR.. Lyman B. Kebler
approving the pedestrian traffic
control lights recently installed
at the intersection of Twelfth and
F. Streets northwest, by the Traffic
Bureau as an experiment, and
recommended that similar lights
be given trial at one of the con-
geSted croSswalks in the Columbia
Heights section.
Resolutions were adopted COM
mending Federal department heads
in organizing fire-fighting coun-
Gil, for closer cooperation with the
District Fire Department.
After a prolonged debate on pro
posed compulsory automobile in
surance, it was finally decided the
plan would not be feasible for the
District, either in policy or prac-
tice at this time, and the legisla-
ton therefore should not be en-
acted.
Protection Of real estate values
in the Columbia Heights section
by extending the use of restricted
covenant was announced by Pres
ident H. C. Phillips as the special
work to be followed by the Forum
during the summer.

ulated the association.

GOLD MINE
RE0PENED

GREAT FALLS, Md, May %.
Inspired by the present high price
of gold, the old Maryland gold
mine, opened here in the "6o's"
and then abandoned for several
years, has been reopened.
Gambling that the present gold
price will not drop before they can
begin bringing out pay dirt" in
sufficient quantities to be worth
while, crews of men work "a hours
daily reconditioning the old shaft
and bringing out gold bearing ore
in small quantities.
Gold was first discovered in
Montgomery county back about
the opening of the Civil War and
the community near Great Falls
and Potomac is dotted with now
abandoned mine shafts. But until
the present gold prices shot from
$40 to $35 per ounce, all attempts
to wrest a fortune from the Mary
land hills have proven futile.
S in Corporation
A corporation of five men is be-
hind the present work at the
Maryland mine and almost Sc
cretly a crew of Is men work 81
lently. renewing rotten timbers
and clearing debris from the shaft
and slopes.
Russell Turner, engineer in
charge Of operations and a
member Of the company which
is called the Maryland Mining
Corporation, said I'VE are just
prospecting" And Just attempt
ing to find out If there is any
thing here worthwhile" The
names of the other members of
the corporation were not re-
vealed.
Turner agrees that at best
gold mining is a gamble and a
hazardous adventure, but your
chances are much better when
the price Of gold is high. He
said:
81 understand that the for
mer owners sunk $725,OOO in
this mine and finally let it 60.
We are working on q shoe.
string"
However, he said the history of
the mines production was what
inspired him and his partners to
take it over.
Found by Soldier
Old residents of the neighbor-
hood, more familiar with the
history of the mine and it's oper-
ators, say it was discovered by
soldier during the Civil War. The
soldier picked up a nugget of
gold on the property and kept it
concealed until after the close of
the war, when he went back and
purchased the land. His was the
first attempt to unearth the
buried treasure.
He was once employed at the
Maryland mine in the days when
the shaft went down 210 feet. he
said. Spurred by the activity Of
the operators at the Maryland
shaft, owners Of other abandoned
mines in the neighborhood are
planning to reopen their shafts
he said.
