feels. Such parkway. connecting
with an arterial highway or parkway
toward Baltimore and crossing the
Potomac by bridge at Alexandria. or
some point below. would provide a
bypass route around the heavily con-
gested downtown area for through
traffic and yet at the same time would
provide another magnificent entrance
to Washington for tourists.
The Anacostia parkway. through
the heart of East Washington. would
serve as bypass east of the city

near the end of East Capitol street
beside the Anacostia River. This. he
said, is the only location in which
adequate traffic accommodations can
be provided and explained that at that
location cars could be parked faster
than they could be moved in along the

Proper development Of East Wash
ington would do more to solve the
increasing problem Of traffic congestion
in Northwest Washington than any
other single city planning project it
Il possible to undertake. in the opinion
Of William A. Van Duzer, District d.
rector Of traffic.
Members of Congress and Capitol
Hill employees probably would be the
greatest immediate beneficiaries Of a
thoroughgoing development Of East
Washington, although the beneficial
effects of such program eventually
would be felt in every part of the
metropolitan area. Mr.. Van Duzer be-
lieves.
Long An ardent advocate Of locating
q great national stadium at the Ana
costa River end of East Capitol street.
Mr.. Van Duzer believes that this would
be the opening wedge in a program of
development which eventually would
do much to restore this area to its
rightful position as vital part of a
balanced Capital.
Would Open New Section.
He emissions great parkway along
the Anacostia River which not only
would open to the public a new and
beautiful section of Washington but
which would serve as vital link in
a future bypass" boulevard along
which through traffic from the east
and northeast to the south could be
routed around the local congested
area. This plan ultimately would in
volve bridging the Potomac from
Shepherds Landing to Alexandria. the
narrowest point in the river south Of
Key Bridge. or perhaps at some point
below.
Traffic flow in Northwest Washing
ton rapidly is reaching the saturation
point. particularly along Massachusetts
and Connecticut avenues" Mr.. Van
Duzer said. This section of Wash
ington has grown out of all proportion
and the results. especially from the
traffic standpoint. have been I'M
fortunate.
Anything that can be done to shift
the traffic will be helpful to the whole
Washington area. Immediate relief
would be afforded by the development
Of East Washington and a diversion
Of part of the traffic into the area
east of the Capitol which now bears
. lighter load than any other section
OF the metropolitan area. with the
possible exception of small area in
Southwest Washington"
Lesson From Traffic Count.
Need for traffic relief in Northwest
Washington by some such means as
that Of developing East Washington
as governmental, business. residen-
tial, sports and show area is one of
the great lessons to be learned from
the Works Project Administration
trafic count made here two years ago,
Mr. Van Duzer said.
He referred to a traffic flow map for
the District of Columbia prepared as
. result Of that survey to afford actual
proof that East Washington has been
robbed Of its proper share in the de-
velopment OF the National Capital and
that neglect of this forgotten" civic
area has resulted in disproportionate
congestion elsewhere.

The Dead Still Picket

''Ten dead men will picket here forever"
said a banner carried by demonstrators be-
fore the South Chicago plant of Republic
Steel on the anniversary of the 1887 Mem
orial Day massacre.
Living pickets are human beings of flesh
and blood. They may be beaten down with
clubs or pierced with bullets. Ambulances
and police wagons may carry away their
bodies. Brute force may triumph for a day
over the living. But it has no power over
the dead.
Just as the soul of John Brown went
marching on, until slavery was abolished, SO
the protest of the picket line cannot be de-
stroyed by violence.
Chicago police drove the picketing steel
workers from the Republic Steel plant in one
of the most fiendish massacres of modern
times. But for every man they killed, ten
thousand have arisen who are sworn to keep
the soul of the 1897 picket line marching on,
until it's purpose has been achieved.
Republic Steel is more effectively picketed
today by the determination of hundreds Of
thousands of union steel workers than ever
before the massacre.
The memory of the ten dead men will con-
tinue this picket line until collective bar
gaining is accepted by every steel company
in the land-and until the political hirelings
who order working people murdered are re-
moved from every public office.-(From CLIO
NeDS.)

The Billion Dollar Navy Bill

The 81, 157, 100000 naval expansion bill
SIGNED by President Roosevelt is interpreted
as placing the United States in the lead in
the international navy rearmament race.
The construction of the most powerful
battleships ever foated is regarded by Con-
gress as necessary to prevent Entertainments
by any foreign power on the rights OF the
United States. In addition to the construc-
ton of 46 combatant vessels and 70 auxiliary
craft the law provides for at least $50 air
planes to give the Navy a minimum air force
of 5000 first line planes.
In view of the fact that this plan to spend
$1,157,000 900 for the larger Navy did not
arouse very much opposition in Congress 1t
is interested to note what the effect would
be on our social welfare if the same amount
were appropriated to provide adequate homes
for the large mass Of low-income workers
who are now compelled to live in sub
standard houses.
Housing experts say that modest houses
can be constructed for $4,000 each. At this
price, the 81, 157 100000 authorized for the
big navy would provide $4,000 houses,
capable of furnishing accommodations for
1895. 900 persons at five to the family. An
addition of this size to our housing would
materially aid in solving the problem OF
homes at reasonable prices or rentals for
many thousands Of workers in the low-in-
come groups. This point is worth consider
ing when members of Congress raise objec-
tons to adequate Federal funds to assist
housing on the ground that the Government
cannot afford to make the necessary appro-
priations-objections that are never raised
when the question Of making large appropri-
atoms for the Navy are being considered.

Preventing War

The Committee on Military Affairs Of the
United States Senate has submitted a report
recommending the enactment of the bill, IN
troduced by Senator Lee of Oklahoma, TO
promote peace and the national defense
through a more equal distribution OF the
burdens Of war by drafting the use of money
according to ability to lend to the govern
ment."
Standing on the conviction that the owners
of property should be required to make sacrl-
fees during a war and prevented from amass-
ing large profits from war, the bill declares
that whenever Congress shall declare war,
or shall declare that the imminence OF war
has created an emergency which in the Judg-
ment of the President is sufficiently serious
to necessitate an increase in the Military
Establishment by the drafting OF manpower'
the President is authorized and requested to
cause to be taken a census Of the net wealth
of the nation"
On the basis of the wealth census the law
Montana labor news., 1938-06-23

would require persons owning wealth valued
at $1,000 or more to lend portions of it to the
government in return for ffty-year bonds
carrying one per cent interest, the bonds
being redeemable at the option of the gov
eminent.
The apportionment of the compulsory loan
is graduated in a manner similar to the Fed
eral income tax, laying the heaviest burden
on those most able to lend. The loans range
from five per cent on net wealth of from
1000 to $4,000 and ten per cent on wealth
ranging from $4,000 to 100000 up to rs per
cent on wealth above $10O,O00,000.
Pointing out that one of the greatest in
centives to war is the possibility of making
profit by means of high interest rates during
the war; the report declares that the enact
ment of the Lee bill would remove any pos
sibility of profits resulting from financing the
war" and would help to equalize the inan-
cial burden of wal" the report added:
Instead of holding out the tempting in
centive of high interest rates for the use of
money in the case of war, it would say to
the fnanciers of the United States, IF the
United States goes to war, you will be COM
PEELED to finance it, and that not at a profit,
but at a loss
"The surest way to prevent this country
from being drawn into a future war is to
draft money as we'll as manpower. When
the financial tycoons and large manufacture
ers realize that they will have to lend the
bulk of the money necessary to finance the
next war, at an extremely low rate of in
terest, they will hesitate to use the forces at
their command to propaganda the general
public into a war hysteria.
THUS we will have taken another step in
the direction of peace by having removed
one more cause of war"
The Lee bill will, of course, not be acted
on by the present session of Congress. But
its drastic provision for the drafting of wealth
as we'll as manpower in case of war is bound
to create earnest thought among all classes
of people, and especially among those who
know the horrible sacrifices in life and health
which all wars impose upon humanity.
Montana labor news., 1938-06-23

and General Franco seems to have
an abundance of outside capital as
well as thousands of soldiers from
both Germany and Italy making the
situation strictly an international af-
fair. While there are probably more
willing volunteers fighting with the
Loyalists, there are likely ten times
as many %conscripted in Germany and
Italy to fight for the Insurgents. It
seems like in the final analysis, each
country should be left to work out
its own particular problems.
To let Hitler and Mussolini take
possession of Spain would not settle
the international situation, would
not even postpone it; but it would
give the two dictators an ace in the
hole when it comes to trading with
Great Britain for African colonies.
The whole strategy may turn out to
be: Down the Reds in Spain,' which
would not be Objectionable to any
of the capitalistic countries, then
back out of Spain by being given
compensating concessions in Africa,
which seems to be the greatest con-
cession market in the world today.
