Despite their preference for the

only If bypass routes are provided for

A petition, signed by approximately

to the repaving proposals, has been
presented to the District Commission
ers by a committee Of which Dean G..
Acheson, former Undersecretary of

prominent citizens and civic and So
ciety leaders.
Other members Of the committee
were Col. Edward Clifford, John Ihdler,
Frederick M. Bradley, Mrs. Frank H.
Simonds and former District Commis-
sioner Sidney F. Taliaferro.
The petitioners stated the proposal
for repaving originated with those
who wish to provide an additional
thoroughfare to outlying areas" and
who hope that the conversion of p
street into a traffic corridor will re-
duce through trafic on the streets
that pass their properties"
The issue involves not only the
Belgian cobblestones and proposals for
concrete, but the question of prop
erty values, which residents contend
would be lowered if P street became
an arterial highway.

considered by those who support the
proposal for repaving," the petitioners
alleged in their protest to the Com
missioners.
The proposal Is based, the petition
said, on the general argument an ad-
ditional thoroughfare is needed and
that p street offers temporary, but
Immediately available, expedient for
meeting the need"
On this point 1t was brought out
that Dupont Circle, where P street
trafic already mingles with traffic
from @ street, Massachusetts, avenue
and Connecticut avenue, already pre-
sents a trafhc problem for which no
answer has been found" adding that
"P street comes to q dead end at
Wisconsin avenue" which now is too
narrow for its traffic
Therefore, the proposed change
would give only short. time relief, the
petitioners contend, and soon 1t would
be necessary to provide the bypass

ELLENB0GEN'S 5
TACTICS STIR
CRITICISM
Rebuke of D. 6. Heads
Is Not Approved BY
His Colleagues

The rebuke given the District
Commissioners yesterday by Rep
resentative Henry Ellenbogen
CD, Of Pennsylvania, for their
failure to make a personal appear
ance at q House District subcom-
mittee hearing on a bill in which
they are interested received n-
favorable reaction from other
members Of the committee, 1t was
learned today.
Members said they disagreed
altogether with the position taken
by the Pennsylvania, and that
his attitude in this matter was un.
called for.
Guarded in Future
It was learned also that in the
future the Commissioners will not
be subjected by District subcom.
mittee chairmen to the embarrasS
ment thrust upon them by the
action Of Ellenbogen yesterday.
The situation came about when,
during the hearings on the bill au
thorizing construction Of a build.
ing for the Recorder Of Deeds,
Vernon West, acting corporation
counsel, sought to appear as q wit
ness to present the views Of the
Commissioners who oppose the
bill.
This IS the practice that has
been followed before the House
and Senate District Committees
on q major portion Of the legisla-
ton during the past several years.
The PennSylvanian, however,
made the surprising assertion
that he would not hear the acting
Corporation Counsel, adding that
if the Commissioners had any
testimony to offer they would
have to appear in person.
Were Before Senate
It Was explained by West that
the Commissioners were called to
appear before the Senate Appro.
priations Committee on local
appropriation matters-a more
important subject. Ellenbogen
replied:
eff they prefer attending an.
other committee hearing in.
stead of this one, that is up to
them. This committee is as inn.
pOrtant as any other"
It later was learned, however,
that members of the committee
expressed their diSapproval to
Ellenbogen Of his position, al
though ne explained to them that
he had a specific reason for his
action. Just what that specific
reason was was not made known

CHERRY TREES
DUE T0BL0OM
APRIL So
"Fair Showing" Will
Be Made For Palm
Sunday, Claim

It is now official that Wash
ington's famed cherry blossom
display will be at its best some
time between April 5 and o.
The prediction came from Ma
tional Capital Parks officials to-
day after a two-day study Of the
cherry buds that line the Tidal
Basin. Until today only unoffi'
cial "guesses" were made.
David Saunders, cherry bios
som expert" of the parks unit.
said the buds are swelling rapidly
and should begin bursting late
next week.
"a fair showing" can be ex-
pected Palm Sunday, April 5.
the official prediction declared.
and unless there are heavy rains
or winds during that week they
will be in full bloom for the
Easter holidays.
The prediction today concerned
only the blossoms around the
Tidal Basin and not those that
line the Speedway at HaineS
Point. The trees there, which
bear the double blossoms, do not
bloom until about two weeks after
the single blossoms. Many trees
around Haines Point were carried
away by the flood last week, but
it is not believed remaining trees
are materially damaged.
