Anacostia Bridge Survey
Plan Approved by Hazen
Commissioner Melvin C. Hazen
yesterday gave his approval to the
suggestion by Highway Director H.
j C. Whitehurst that a survey be
made of the need for construction
of a bridge over the Anacostia River
on the line of South Capitol street,
for which a campaign is being waged
by Southeast groups.
Mr. Hazen recalled that he had
made a study himself nearly 50
| years ago, when he was an employe
of the District surveyor's office,
which he headed in later years.
There was a community demand
then for such a bridge, but Mr.
Hazen concluded the span then was
not needed. He remarked that, of
course, conditions had changed since
1890 He did not commit himself
| on the pending bridge proposal
\ itself.
However, Mr. Hazen recalled his
■ own suggestion for construction of
; a new span over the Potomac River,
i between Shepherds Landing in the
Blue Plains area and Alexandria,
as a key to a suggested by-pass for
Washington. He said he had re
ceived many complaints about heavy
trucks now passing through Wash
ington which might use such a by
pass to the South. His proposal Is
that Virginia bear a part of the cost
Toast Methods Change
Toast differs today from the kind
mother used to make 15 yean
ago because formulas for bread
are richer, toasters are differenl
and people's tastes have changed
according to a study reported tc

Missing Witness Frees
Man in Wife-Slaying
By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Oct. 14—James K.
Matter, once convicted of slaying
his wife, won freedom today be
cause the State was unable to find
his 10-year-old daughter, whose tes
timony prosecutors needed for a
retrial ordered by the State Su
preme Court.
Matter, an industrial engineer,
was released under the so-called
“four-term law,” which provides a
defendant must be released auto
matically if he has demanded trial
at four successive court terms with
out the State’s being ready to pro
ceed.
The State had been granted an
additional 60 days of grace in which
to search for Martha Matter, 10. The
girl had testified at her father’s
first trial that she had heard her
mother pleading with him “not to
shoot.” Mrs. Marguerite Matter,
37, was shot to death in her bedroom
October 2, 1938. Matter was con
victed and sentenced to 20 years.
The Supreme Court ordered a re
trial on the ground much of the
evidence indicated Matter was in
nocent. In the interim the girl had
been sent to live with an aunt, Miss
Marian E. Matter of Harrisburg,
Pa. Prosecutor Emmett Moynihan
told Criminal Court Judge today the
State had been unable to find the
child.
