Reasons for Opposing Abattoir
Sh0,un in Plans for Northeast
Proposed Developments Would Bring
That Section of City For,oard, Unless
"Bighted" by Slaughter House.

Steady progress Of plans to build
up a long neglected section of Wash
ington by developments along the
Anacostia and outlying regions, the
city's second largest park area was
cited yesterday as a ma jor reason for
the stubborn resistance on the part
OF Federal and District officials to the
threatened invasion of slaughter house
operations, with their accompanying
nuisances.
On the fringe of this area at the
Benning viaduct, close to existing
recreational centers, the resumption
of activities at the Gobel stock yards
would blight a section of Washington
on both banks of the Anacostia, off,
cials claimed. Millions Of dollars al
ready have been expended in reclaim
ing sections Of Northeast Washington
and additional investment on i'm
provements long desired by residents
is in prospect.
The National Capital Park and
Planning Commission long has been
keenly interested in building up east
Westinghouse program envisioned
more than century back by George
Washington and his associates. Since
1925, when the commission was estab-
lished, it has purchased some 400
acres east of the Anacostia River, in
cluding Fort Dupont. the Fort drive
and Fort Mahan. West of the Ana
costa River, including additions at
the stadium and Benning Recreation
Center, the commission has bought
about 81 acres.

Altogether, Anacostia Park will
comprise l,309l2 land acres, in addi-
ton to the water expanses of the new
public playground This fiscal year

expending $4,000, mainly in sea-
wall construction. to improve the area
Already under the reclamation pro-
gram 82024 acres have been trans
ferred to the National Capital Parks.
c. Marshall Finnan. superintendent
of the National Capital Parks, said
that IN Anacostia Park, at the end of
East Capitol street.-the site Of the
projected stadium-men are now at
work putting in a fill and grading.

First of all, Bishop Gallagher made
1t plain Father Coughlin is running
a political campaign. I am not. He
is much better informed on political
trends than I am"
He continued
There is one thing I do know. It
is a fine thing for man like Father
Coughlin to call the peoples atten-
tion to the grave risks we are under
going, tending toward communism.
Rate OF Foreclosure Cited.
Farm mortgages are being fore
closed at the rate of 5000 a day How
long can that last before they all
belong to the insurance companies?
How long can that 60 on before
the people take things into their own
another Spain?"
The bishop settled himself heavily
into his chair and again stroked his
hair.
Il can not politically agree with
any advice to farmers to repudiate
their debts, because that might mean
civil war;" he went on.
(At the time he made this state
