4 which will be opened tomor-
I row from Q to o'clock for
~ the benefit Of child welfare
work in Georgetown, will include that
of Mrs. John Sewer at 3124 @ street,
one Of the most historic Of those to
be shown. The fine old mansion built
in 1905 by Washington Bowie, former
Governor Of Maryland, was fire.
uuently visited by the famous men
and women of those early days when
Georgetown was an important city OF
the New World. Jefferson and La
Fayette, Webster, Calhoun and Henry
Clay have tramped up and down be-
tween the box hedges in the old gar
den, discussing affairs Of the Nation.
La Fayette was so careless, or to the
present generation so amiable, as to
leave his spectacles lying across the
open page of a Bible, which always
was on the harpsichord. And there
they remained and were found by
Mrs. Sewer and the late Mr.. Sewer
when they purchased the house in
1890.
The glorious box garden, designed
by L'Enfant is well preserved, though
the original design has lost some OF
its precision and later planting has
somewhat blurred its outlines. Col.
Hollingsworth, who was in charge OF
Mount Vernon for many years, owned
this old home on @ street at one time
and planted many cuttings and seed
lings from the stately old home Of
George Washington. Adding grandeur
to the box garden are the giant old
trees-oaks, tulip, poplar and chest
nut-some Of them IA and 18 feet
in circumference. The garden ex-
tends from @ street, which in 1905
was q narrow lane, to an old iron
gate, now kept locked, which for
merly opened onto p street.
Other gardens on view tomorrow
are those of Mrs. Thomas Bradley,
1901 Twenty-eighth street; Dunbar
ton Oaks, the home Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert Woods Bliss, 310l r street;
Mrs. Fulton Lewis, 1869 Thirty-fir
street; Mrs. Anne Archbold, 1904
Reservoir road: Bernard Lane, 5327
Conduit road, and Mrs. William Nc
Cain, 1897 N street.
Tea will be served tomorrow after
noon on the terrace at Dumbarton
Oaks when Mrs. Hugh Nicolson and
Mrs. Llewellyn Nicolson will preside.
Another group of gardens in
Georgetown, including that Of the
Visitation Convent at Thirty-fifth and
P streets, which will be opened to the
public for the first time, will be on
view Saturday, May l6. from 2 to z
o'clock. Mrs. Robert F. Whitehead

started Immediately. The President
has replied that funos are not yet
available for the more comprehensive
type of survey, but that the prelin-
mary studies are going forward.
THE White House letter says:
= Although the Corps Of Engi-
neers Is now reviewing its previous
food control investigations In the Po-
tomac Basin, funds are not available
for the more comprehensive type Of
survey to which you refer. The water
resources problems Of the basin are
also being covered in as much detail
as possible in the committees CNa-
tional Resources) current drainage
basin study. The State public health
agencies have indicated their desire
to cooperate in the recommended in
vestigation of the basin, but the Fed
eral agencies lack the requisite funds.
Pending appropriations for this pur-
pose, the work must be held in abey-
ance." The legislative delegations from
the four States most directly interest
ed are going to make drive for the
appropriations.
In the recommendations OF the Ma
tional Resources Committee it was es-
timated that the entire program Of
study in the Potomac Basin would
cost about $4,000, 900, Of which some
$4,500,0 should be promptly avail

handling problems Of domestic and

because it satisfies all of the condi-
tions the committee thought proper.
IT IS sufficiently close to Washing
ton to lend itself to careful and
continued scrutiny. 1t contains a
number of domestic sewage treatment
problems, which have the same char
acteristics as larger undertakings else
where. Industrial wastes in the re-
gion are of considerable volume and
cover practically all of the types which
now confront the rest Of the United
States for solution. Coal mine wastes
add another problem Of general in

problem. At certain points IN the

local and industrial agencies for more
than 20 years and the four States
concerned therein have had voluntary
interstate agreements for number OF
years.
THE proposed Potomac River drain
age basin appears. therefore, to be
Immediately available for the crystal
ization Of administrative procedures,
which could then be applied with
greater assurance to the country at
large" the Natural Resources Com
mittee decided "In the absence of
such a demonstration unit, it is the
feeling Of the committee that it would
be unwise to apply blanket program
in the immediate future for similar
purposes to all of the important drain
age basins in the country" 1t is for
this reason that the surgeon general
and the Public Health Service and
scores Of State health boards are sup
porting the proposal for a study labor
atory covering the entire Potomac
Basin.
The Water Resources Committee Of
experts behind this recommendation
is composed of w. B. Bell, Bureau of
Biological Survey. United States De-
partment Of Agriculture; Col Glen E.
Edgerton, Office of Chief of Engineers,

job here OF this $780, 900 was for
immediate preliminary use for tech

most of those early projects are near
ing completion or are well under way
so that it is now estimated that the
entire Potomac Basin study could be
completed at cost of approximately
$12,000,000.
Right now the Engineer Corps Is
getting an organization together to
