Bill Signed
Authorizing
New Bridge

President Eisenhower yester-
day signed q bill authorizing a
fixed span replacement for the
old Fourteenth Street Bridge
crossing the Potomac River to
Virginia.
The bill was sent to the
White House last week.
1t authorizes a total of SIG
million covering both the new
Fourteenth Street Bridge,
opened in 1850 to carry north
bound traffic, and the projected
replacement. which will carry
southbound traffic. 4
The House had sent to the
President a bill amended by the
Senate to provide for a fixed
span.
When the bill was first au-
thorized by Congress in 1916,
the price tag on the twin Four
teenth Street Bridge was 81
million.
BY the time the northbound
span was completed in 1850.
$6.8 million-all but 100000
of the original authorization
was used up, owing to rising
costs.
In raising the total to SIC
million for both spans, Con-
gress allowed $9.2 million as
the cost of the structure to be
erected.
District officials have not
asked Congress for funds for
the project. They expect to
ask for $920,000 next year as
the city's 10 per cent share of
the cost of the project. which
will be built under the Federal
highway program.

THERE ARE A FEW me-
mentos of the great event of
1872 years ago in this area.
The original engrossment
of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence is on display in the
National Archives, Eighth
street and Pennsylvania
avenue. Elbridge Gerry Of
Massachusetts,, a signer of
the Declaration, is buried in
Congressional Cemetery, off
Seventeenth street Sc.
Gerry pronounced with a
hard G like Gary was Madi-
sons Vice President during
the burning of Washington.
He was also the man whose
arrangement of the voting
districts of Massachusetts, to
favor the Republicans CJef-
ferson'S party) led to the
term "gerrymander" talso
pronounced with a hard &C."
At Stratford, about 80
miles down the Potomac on
the Virginia side, two signers
of the Declaration were born,
Richard Henry Lee and
Francis Lightfoot Lee. Two
generations later the same
great house was the birth
place of Robert E. Lee.
Richard Henry Lees simple

Colonies are, and of right
ought to be, free and inde-
