Gen. Pratt Gets Plea
For Better Upkeep Of
Roads Near FortMyer
Honrohon Says Officials
At Fort Kept Workmen
From Fixing Highways

An appeal for better maintenance
of Arlington Ridge road and other
Federal thoroughfares near Fort
Myer and the Arlington National
Cemetery today was before Maj.
Gen. Henry c. Pratt, commanding
officer of the Army Sd Corps Area.
County Manager Frank C. Han
rahan of Arlington County has
written Gen. Pratt asking for bet
ter cooperation between military
authorities and the county govern
ment in the maintenance of these
roads. He cited Arlington Ridge
road as being in particularly bad
state of repair, warning that "the
condition of this road is very dan
gerous and some one will certainly
have to assume responsibility should
a serious accident occur"
He said he and County Engineer
c. L. Kinnier had made every pos
sible effort to cooperate with the
Federal authorities" Only recently,
he said, the county endeavored to
repair a road on Federal property,
but the Workmen were stopped by
Fort Myer officials
Residents of the county who use
Arlington Ridge road have sent nu-
merous complaints to Mr.. Hanra-
hans Office about deep holes along
the pavement which would con-
tribute to wrecks
Col. w. w. Gordon, commandant
at Fort Myer, said use of Arlington
Ridge road by heavy trucks con-
tribute to the hard wear, but, he
added, the military reservation
maintains the road to the best of
its ability with existing funds.
