Capital Transit Co. Asks
That Board Report
Be Upheld.

The Capital Transit Co. today
called on the Interstate Commerce
Commission to uphold a report of a
joint board recommending denial Of
the petition Of the Arlington & Fair
fax Railway Co. to operate a motor
rail service between Rosslyn, Va, and
downtown Washington.
The Capital Transit brief was filed
in response to one from the Arlington
& Fairfax asking that the board be
overruled. Yesterday William A.
Roberts. peoples counsel for the Dis
trict, filed a brief in which he also
requested that the permit asked by
the Arlington g. Fairfax be denied.
The Capital Transit says the Ar
lington & Fairfax brief is largely in
the nature of reargument of the
points previously brought out.
THE record clearly shows" it says,
that there is at present adequate
transportation service as to both
equipment and frequency Of trips be-
tween Rosslyn, Va, and the District of
Columbia to serve all passengers, and
to a large extent service of the appli-
cant in Virginia is duplicated or par
alleled by service from other car
riers.'
Capital Transit reiterated that it is
furnishing adequate service in the Dis
trict, and is prepared to enlarge its
service to meet the needs.
In asking that the joint board be
overruled, Arlington g. Fairfax said,
in effect. that the board had gone out
Of its way to find reasons why the
new service should not be established.
Roberts, in his brief, insisted there
was no merit in the claim present serv-
ice is inadequate. for the sole reason
that transfers are required at Rosslyn.

WORK COMPLETED
ON MERIDIAN HILL
U. S. Accepts Final Park
improvements After Off.
ciaI Inspection.

The extensive improvement of
Meridian Hill Park, on Sixteenth
street, was completed yesterday when
the Government accepted the final
work following an official tour of in
spection, according tn an announce
ment today by c. Marshall Finnan,
director of National Capital Parks.
The park was completed after years
of development at total cost of
$2,500,000. for improvements and
ground. A decorative feature will be
a fountain set in a niche hung with
stalactite crystals from the roofs Of
caverns at Luray, Va.
The fountain already is in operation
in the niche and the stalactiteS will
be placed at the back of the niche,
adding color to the development. The
stalactites, Finnan said, already are
packed up and will be sent to Wash
ington without delay.
p. w. A. Funds Used.
AS part of the s1,000,000 P. w. A..
local park improvement program, the
latest work in Meridian Hill has been
made possible. Finnan said Horace
w. Peaslee, Government architect
with the P. W. A., who formerly was
employed by the Parks ONCE. made
the inspection trip yesterday and had
been a consultant in the latest phases
, of the project, just as he was in the
early stages.
Tree wells have been planted seven
feet in concrete on the great terrace
at the top of the cascades to hold
16 Elm trees. Permanent seats of
ornamental scrubbed concrete, which
leaves the pebbles exposed to view.
have been set in place. Extensive
landscaping has been accomplished
on the hillsides, east and west of the
cascades. Sycamores, cedars, holly
hedge. various shrubs and ground
cover have been planted.
Walks in Garden.
Walks and a drainage system have
been placed in the hillside garden.
Finnan said, and the entire park has
been equipped with new lights. The
fountain in the lower terrace at the
foot of the cascades has also been
illuminated.
Officials explained that the assessed
value of the land comprising Meridian
Hill Park is $1,423,121 and that, with
the money just spent on improving
this park, work estimated at little
over S1.000,000 has been accomplished

INCREASE IN PRICE
. OF M|LKAPPROvED
IS Cents Per Quart to Oh.
tain in Two Southeastern
Virginia Areas.
By the Associated Press

6N tnc hsSOClhteQ FIeSN
RICHMOND. Va, September 29.-
The State Milk Commission an
nounced today that October / the re-
tail price of milk in the Norfolk
Portsmouth and Newport News-wil-
liamsburg markets would be Is cents
q quart.
j. S. Agnew, commission chairman,
said a present difference of cent a
quart between the Newport News and
Norfolk retail prices had created an
unsatisfactory situation due to the
proximity Of the two markets and the
interchange of milk between the two
areas"
The new price Of Is cents will
mean an increase of / cent q quart
in Nofolk and Portsmouth and 2
cents in Newport News and Williams
burg.
Agnew said $50 per cent increase
in the cost of grain goods and the
devastating effect Of the drought that
has prevailed in some sections of the
Newport News Williamsburg milk
shed" made it necessary to increase
the price to producers.
After giving very careful consider
alton to the distribution" in both
markets. "the commission is con-
vinced that the distributor is not able
to absorb this increase at this time
he said
Agnew pointed out the 1-cent in
crease in Norfolk and Portsmouth rep
resented approximately 7 per cent,
while other commodities have in
creased more than so per cent"
There were no changes in the price
of buttermilk, skinned milk and cream
to the consumer in the Norfolk Ports
mouth market, but the retail price of
milk was raised / cent on both quarts
and pints The new pint price will be
9 cents. There was no change in the
scent price on half pints. High test
milk also was increased / cent each on
pints and quarts to 10 and II cents, re-
spectively.
