Work 10 Start
Soon on River
Improvements
Dock Development
Here Expected to
Cost $2,061 900

A comprehensive program for de-
velopment of the Potomac River
waterfront in the Washington and
Alexandria area, estimated to cost
$2,061 900, is ready for the start of
construction this fall, the War De-
partment announced today.
Col. John M. johnson, u. S. dis
trict engineer, said the program Is
a revival of the old five-year de-
velopment authorized by Congress
for the Washington waterfront that
was interrupted in its second year
by the war. The $2,061 900 involved
now, he said, covers expenditures
authorized<fo the first of the post
war years. In two more years the
entire program will have been COM
pleted.
The local project was revealed
in connection with the announce
ment that the Civil Works Di-
vision of the Army Engineers are
ready to start work this fall on
rivers and harbors and flood con-
troll projects of an estimated cost
of $900,615, 500. BY late spring (1946)
the engineers will be ready for ad-
ditional projects throughout the
country of the same type, esti-
mated to cost $593 ,954,965.
Deficiency Estimates.
Deficiency estimates are in the
hands of the Budget Bureau. it
was announced, and will be sub
mitted to Congress soon.
Col. johnson said the projects
for Washington should not be con-
fused with plans for waterfront de-
velopments now under consideration
by the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission. A report is
being prepared by that agency
enumerating various proposed i'm
provements, many of which no
doubt will be included to bring the
general program up to date.
The 1945 Rivers and Harbors Act
directed the chief of Army Engi-
neers to make a Nationwide study
of projects, including those for the
Washington waterfront. Col. john
son had called upon the Planning
Commission to cooperate in this
study, which it is doing.
All the late improvements on the
Washington Channel front were
built under authorization of the
original flve-year program now
being revived.
Col. johnson said that the forth
coming construction includes water
front improvements in the War Col
lege area.
New Piers and Yacht Basin.
The plan consists generally of
new piers for Potomac River boats,
in both the Washington Channel
and the Anacostia River. Similar
work is to be done on the Alexan-
dria front. Provisions also are to
be made for yacht basin.
Both the Potomac and Anacos-
tia channels have sufficient depth,
it was said, but some dredging will
be necessary to enable larger craft
to berth at wharves.
The Planning Commission is in
cooperating in its report to the
United States Engineer Office, plans
for the new bridge over the Ana
costa River and a Potomac River
span connecting Alexandria with
Shepherds Landing. These are
projects that have long been under
consideration, the latter bridge
being tied in with the Planning
Commissions contention for a sin
gle six-lane traffic span replacing
the old Highway Bridge.

 Saturday last saw fun start around noon and carry on until late night. From noon 'til sundown found Miller's Beach jammed with GIs and lovely "de-icers. :" Iris said that the water was fine, the boat ing good and the gals swim suits, we'll just were!
 To have this outing the Squad ron deprived the "fowl world" of about three hundred of its finest feathered ladies. Some members of the Mess Crew showed their true colors by being very cruel-they actually boiled these creatures in oil, then took them to the beach to be disposed of and that they were!
 To celebrate the victory over the "boids" the gang moved from the beach-head to. the NCO Club. There they started jump session that was really on the old ball.

family with MT. and Mrs. Tom Butler of Motor Pool, goaded by John Creaser, just talked about more to eat and drink until they reached their collective limits.
 Peter Lamar of the Fire De- partment may not be the best soft ball player of the day, but when he started bluffing behind those paste boards his luck of the night before seemed to have changed,
 George Stewart of the Avon and Mrs. Stewart of AAF Supply with George Rice of the Shops and Mrs. Rice of AAF Supply plus lot of relatives filled another table. Ralph Norton, nearby, didn't say much, he was too busy.
 Lucy Holt, former friendly tele- phone voice, and Betty Sazinsky, formerly QM, came in about 4 p. m. and while most of the food was gone they still didn't go home hungry.
 Sgt. Greenleaf of Tech Inspec- tors Office, plus a lot of other en- listed men, fitted right in the party and filled in nicely. They're a fine bunch, good ball players, too.
 Why was Charlie Borkowskus of Reclamation trying to upset that delegation of music lovers from AAF Supply. I mean Anna McCar-' rol, Theresa Barberi, Helen Love joy, Vicki Poharski and Helen Gregorsky.
 It looked like Brigham and Campbell of Shops had photo finish with that first dish of clans and such. Connie Fahey and Mary O'Connor slid in from the hospital to give first aid if necessary and when they had time off from hav- ing fun.
 Jean Resos led in a happy six some from Headquarters just as the eating started.
 That ball game also brought in Jim Prebit, John Stillwell and Moose" Cone, all of AAF Supply, about the time the chubby man had to drop out. Moose" went back to his attractive companion, while Jim and John did all right too.
 A BIG three-piece band of en- listed men from General Supply & Headquarters held forth on the stage recently vacated by Benny Goodman with melodies both sweet and hot. Margaret Fiorino, with some of her feminine friends, helped to provide inspiration.
 When it comes to saving points, Elizabeth McCullen, Elsie Knight and Mildred Johnson of General Supply filled themselves and their husbands. More General Supply folks doing their bit were Louise Glemboski and Gladys Lee. Char lie Morrison and wife representing PLM were there with the bells on. Geraldine DeLaVergne thought of her relatives and brought seven representatives.
 A former steno of the PIX, Phyllis Ridgely, joined in the fun and in fact the only two departments with no representative were Rail Trans. and Signal Maintenance. Angie ntonacci started to bring the or

wormy, may I say that good
commercial growers spray as
often as II times a season.
Effectiveness of sprays will
vary directly with the manner
in which spraying is done and
the timing of the applications.
Dormant and delayed dormant
sprays should be applied so the
entire wood surface is covered.
Foliage sprays should be applied
so the material is sprayed up
through the tree and from the
outside. Tops of trees should be
completely sprayed. Compress
ed air sprayers of bucket-type
spray pumps are useful for
small-sized trees or for trees in
which the tops can be reached
by means of a ladder.
MOBILES known as angle noz-
zles will be the most useful, be-
cause they permit the spray to
be directed upward through the
leaves and to the foliage from
the outside.

By DEWITT MACKENZIE
Associated Press War Analyst

One of the most unusual.ques-
tons our column has encounter
ed is submitted by a distinguish
ed citizen who puts II like this:
There are a lot of folk, in
Guiding myself, who deeply re-
greet that when this war is over
there still will be Germans left
alive. However, there are 9TH
ers who chide us for this feeling.
Will you please explain why we
are wrong?
Well, ask you! My first i'm
pulse was 10 decline TO discuss
the matter, on the ground that l
might say something which
would incriminate me. Also.
who am ! TO deprive any man OF
such regrets, any more than /
would deprive my Scottie of his
traditional right TO one bite?
However, the question is worth
consideration, since presumably
il has run through most minds.
GAIN FEROCITY
First off, one can say that the
regret expressed is understand
able. This understanding is
fortified when we read of such
current horrors as the German
atrocities at the Gardelegen, Bu-
chenwald and other concentra-
ton camps-savagery which is
mild compared with the whole
sale tortures and massacres car
ried out by German troops in
Russia and Poland. (And while
we are on the subject, lets not
overlook the long line of Jap
barbarities, the latest of which is
the Manila butchery, just made
public by the U. S. War Depart
ment).
The Germans who have been
responsible for such atrocities
and for any other war guilt, in
Guiding the launching of a war
of aggression, must pay the pen
atty. That's one of the chief
aims proclaimed by the Allies.
I'll 20 further and say that
Il would be a blessing to hu-
mainly II some cataclysm
should destroy the entire
Prussian race. It's Prussian
militarism which for genera
TOMS has tortured the world
with the aggression that has
developed the excresence OF
Nazism.
Indeed, all Germans must
stand responsible morally for the
Hitlerian crimes, since the peo-
ple as a whole at least have con-
doned his evil. However, the
Allied governments, and particu-
larly the Russians, have differ
entiated between the actual war
criminals and the mass OF the
Germans who seemingly haven't
been involved in war crimes.
