PLANNERS OPPOSE
OIL WHARF PLANS
Commission Goes on Record
Against Present Change
in Zoning Laws.

The National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission at the closing sessions
of its January meeting yesterday, sought
to block the granting of a permit to the
Sun Oil Co. of Philadelphia TO construct
a wharf above the Key Bridge at Ross
lyn, Va, and went on record rs being
opposed at this time to a change in the
coming law, either to permit greater
elevation of apartment houses by a Sc
ries Of Setbacks or to provide for board
of appeals or adjustments.
While recommending against change
in the coming regulations, the commits
sion said it appreciated the greater at
tractlveness and some of the advantages
that would be afforded by the design
submitted on behalf of the operative
builders. The commission took the po-
sition that a change at this time would
result in unsound coming and tend to be
a detriment to the possibility of apart
ment house development in the old Sec
tons of the city, Capt. E. N. Chisholm,
jr., the commission engineer pointed
out. The commission likewise opposed
any change to add to the cubage or
cubic feet content in apartment house
construction.
In attempting to block favorable ac-
ton on the granting of permit to
construct the wharf at Rosslyn. the
commission said 1T would request the
chief of Army engineers, Maj. Gen.
Lyle Brown, who is eX-officio member
of the commission. to withhold the is
Suance of a permit. Further, It will
advise the Arlington County, Va, COM
missionerS as to their recommendation
on the issuance of permit and the
commission will also ask the county
commissioners and Zoning Commission
to rezone the area in question from
commercial, which 1t now is, back to
residential.
The commission after discussion, Of
ficially adopted the newly designed seal,
which is the work of W. T. Partridge,
its consulting architect. George Wash
inetcn University authorities and the
American Institute of Architects were
thanked for submitting proposed plan
in perspective, relating to the projected
Roosevelt Memorial Stadium. The COM
mission will study the plan further.
Capt. Chisholm presented to the COM
mission some literature on the proposed
National Church and Shrine, which is
planned to be located on the heights in
Virginia. overlooking the National Cap
ital. Sponsors of this project propose
to make it undenominational.
B street can be more advantageously
widened on the south side, in the VI
cinity of the Capitol grounds, the COM
mission decided. as this course would
disturb a fewer number Of trees.
A report was submitted by the stan
on the regional drainage and sewerage
program, under which interested Dis
trict, Maryland and Virginia authorities
are planning for needs in the metro
politan area for the next half century.
A progress report was laid before the
commission relative to sites for schools.
Fairgrounds and recreation centers, but
this was not made public.
Land purchase items and the status
of legislation were considered.
