Cemetery Rood

The Federal Government has de-
cided to repair and widen Arlington
Ridge road along the eastern side of
Arlington Cemetery and thousands
of motorists who, unwittingly or by
force of unavoidable circumstances,
have ventured in recent months
along this stretch of erstwhile high
way will agree that it is high time
something was done about it. The
road is popularly known as the lower
Cemetery road. That most of the
accidents which have occurred on
this narrow, antiquated artery in the
past few years have not resulted
more seriously is a tribute to the
carefulness of the motorists. The
road has done it's best to make mat
ters otherwise.
The lower Cemetery road is link
of the direct route from Rosslyp and
Georgetown to Alexandria, 1t has
colorful history dating back to
horse-and-buggy days. With the
rapid growth of Arlington and the
development of wide approaches
to the Memorial Bridge, the old road
long ago became outmoded. Tech
nically military highway, the road
is under jurisdiction of the War De-
partment, but in recent years the
Army has taken only casual in
terest in its condition. This was due
largely to insuff1ciency of funds for
road upkeep as we'll as the more
essential military requirements.
When the new entrance to Arling-
ton Cemetery was completed, por-
ton of the road connecting the new
approach with the new Lee Boulevard
was improved, but the remainder of
the decrepit stretch was left to battle
it out as best it could with the heavy
traffic southwark. Meanwhile Arling-
ton Village has sprung up on Colum-
bia pike, with 600 additional families
populating the area from which the
old road draws most of it's traffic.
Arlington County Manager Frank
c. Hanrahan and Representative
Howard w. Smith of Virginia ap-
pealed to the War Department for
repair of the highway, with the result
that $25,O00 has been allocated for
the project. Of this amount the
War Department will put up $4,000
and the Works Progress Administra-
ton $4,000. 1t is to be hoped that
work will begin at once on this
much-needed Improvement.

OF its Lord: "They that take the sword
shall perish with the sword" 1t has
been committed by its most solemn obli-
cations to consider its duty to Him whom
it reveres as the prince of Peace"
AS it reviews its action in the World
War it has little to praise for the course
1t took. 1t merged its interests with the
most active and vociferous of the secular
agencies that clamorously called for a
strong, vigorous and militant action. 1t
became recruiting agent for both the
Army and the Navy. It's voice was joined
with the voices of those who stood for
action, swift and decisive. That America
pursued a course that was forced upon
her by the exigencies of the hour, we do
not question. On the other hand, we
definitely believe that the Christian
churches of every name played a role
that was reprehensible, and that lost
them the respect and reverence of those
who looked to them for assurance and
peace at time when these were sorely
needed.
1t may be that the church has learned
its lesson, and that better days are ahead.
What the present conflict may lead to, no
one may venture to say. If it grows in
length it will grow in intensity and bit
terness. The world has a right to look to
the church for release from the strain
which is imposed by nations in the throes
and agonies of war There must be
some place where overwrought nerves are
relaxed and the distractions of life
stilled. Men and women in such days
as these carry load that is heavy and
burdensome. The story of conflict is
before them daily. Coupled with this
they have the added cares and concerns
which an abnormal condition of life lays
upon them. We plead for a church
where the peace that passeth under
standing can be found, where the spirit
OF quiet and repose may be had, a place
where men and women may find the
tensions and strains of life eased and
relaxed. The mighty afflrmations of
Christ must be made more real to men
when they are confused and distracted

Tariff War Aooin

The gathering attack on the recip-
rocal trade agreements program has
Jared Secretary of State Hull from
his benign attitude toward most
controversy and driven him to strong
language. In his press conference
Friday the Secretary said that much
of the talk aimed at discrediting the
program is reckless, and he intimated
that some of the programs enemies
deliberately prevaricate when they
say the program is injuring the
American farmer. Mr.. Hulls words,
added to the Thanksgiving address
of Assistant Secretary Messersmith,
indicate that the administration is
readying itself for a fierce defense
of it's authority to raise or lower
existing tariffs by so per cent. The
authority ends next June II, and its
renewal is in the lap of Congress.
