BALTIMORE, Oct. 27.-Give up
all hopes Of an early solution of
the Baltimore traffic bottleneck.
Maryland's metropolis lying
athwart the principal routes to
the Northeast will be headache
to motorists for years to come.
Even if the Washington -Balti-
more Expressway, the route de-
signed to replace the accident-rid-
den Baltimore boulevard is COM
pleted in 1854, the northbound
motorist win run bang into Balti-
more traffic and crawl through
much of the city.
One solution has been advanced,
a routes across Baltimore harbor
with a bridge across the Middle
Branch of the Patapsco River and
la tunnel near Fort Mckinley un-
der the Northwest Branch, the
harbor entrance.
Connecting Link Planned.
But that has not even reached
the planning stage. It would be
financed with bonds guaranteed
by the income Of Maryiand's three
big toll bridges, the Susquehanna
Bridge on Route 40. the Potomac
Bridge at Morgantown and the
Chesapeake Bay Bridge.
That means that the $44 mill
lion Bay Bridge. which will not
be completed until the latter part
lof next year. will have to prove
itself a revenue getter before
money can be raised for the route
across Baltimore Harbor.
Straugest of all. the proposed
dual highway on, the Eastern
Shore between the Bay Bridge and
the new Delaware River Bridge
the highway that would bring the
traffic that would make the Bay
Bridge pay for itself-is only a
dotted line on the map.
The exasperated motorist work.
ing his way through Baltimore
has always hoped for a route that
would go around the city. But
ia glance at the map will show
that is no solution.
Most Traffic Local.
Baltimore City is a larger area
than the District of Columbia
To go around 1t would take one
miles out of the way. A beltway
has been propostd and completion
Iof preliminary plans for a Ave
mile section of 1t north of the
city near Towson was announced
in August by Baltimore County.
The proposed beltway is not
planned to be a solution of the
through traffic problem. It is to
Improve cross-county transporta-
ton from a situation in which all
good roads go into Baltimore
something like the East-West
highway north of Washington or

neers recommended by-passing
cities. But traffic studies have
since convinced them that high
ways through the suburbs are nc
