$500, 900 Project
In Alexandra Asked

ALEXANDRIA,Va., Aug. 14-(Spe-
eiaD. Inclusion Of nurses training
school in a proposed $500, 900 addi-
ton to the Alexandria Hospital was
announced today by Robert G. Whit
ton, business manager of the hos
pital, in announcing that complete
plans for the addition would be sent
to the P. w. A. Office in Richmond
early next week.
A request for a $500,000 Federal
grant for the project, under terms
of the Lanham Act, already has been
forwarded to the P. w. A, as part
Of Alexandria's total application for
Federal assistance of 81. ISL 900.
Mr.. Whitton said the addition
would be larger than the present
lO0-bed hospital. He announced, for
the first time, part of the funds
would be used to re-establish a
school for nurses.
The executive said the hospital
was equipped to care for only about
100 persons but now listed 126
patients. During July an average of
lis patients were registered. He
pointed to the fact that the nearest
hospital to Alexandria, outside OF
those in Washington, was at Lees
burg, 35 miles away.
In explaining the immediate need
for the addition, Mr.. Whitton said
the great influx of population to
Alexandria brought about by the
national defense program worked
considerable hardship on the hos
pital. He said the transient popula-
ton attracted by the growth of in
dustry here had also increased the
hospital problem.

Traffic Violations
Increase by 2,4OO
Here During Year
Fines Collected Gain
By More Than $4,000,
Police Report Shows

Increases in virtually all types of
traffic violation cases handled In
Police Court here are indicated by
a report for the past fiscal year
submitted today to Corporation
Counsel Richmond B. Keech.
The court reported a total of 81
Bill traffic offenses booked in the
year ending June 80, or nearly 2, 400
more than the previous fiscal year.
Fines and forfeitures collected in
traffic cases in the court and pre-
cincts amounted to $495 ,206-sl18,-
376 more than in 1899.
Inspector Arthur E. Miller, head
Of the Police Departments trafic
division, said that while a greater
population and larger, number Of
automobiles were contributing fac
tors, the comparative records un-
doubtedly reflected increased en-
forcement Of traffic regulations.
The report showed that during
the first six months of this year the
number of cases nolle- -proSsed in the
court decreased by 81 per cent from
the previous year. The mark for
the January o-June, 1941, period,
coinciding roughly with the incum-
bence of Corporation Counsel
Keech. was only 54 as contrasted
with 126 from July through Decem-
ber. 1910. On the same compar-
ative basis. acceptance of pleas of
guilty to smaller charges fell off
from go to II.
On taking Office late in 1910, Mr..
Keech instructed his assistants not
to nolle-prosse cases unless essential
elements of proof were missing, such
as death of the defendant or disap-
pearance Of important witnesses.
Mr.. Keech, moreover, insisted that
full report be made on each case
dropped.
Public attention was focused on
this phase of the courts activity by
the case Of Edward M. Buckley,
Washington attorney, who had been
permitted to plead guilty to lesser
offense after being charged with
driving while drunk. The more seri-
GUS charge was reinstated on order
Of Mr.. Keech, and the case is now
before the Court Of Appeals.
Among the major increases shown
over the previous fiscal year in the
report were: Speed cases, 9,9l3, up
by 2,40o; right-of-way violations,
5s7, or up 268, and passing q street.
car, IS. None Of the latter was re-
ported In 1939-40.
Decreases were shown in dis
orderly conduct cases, which dropped
from 3,i08 to 2,769; drunkenness
cases, which fell Of by 694 to total
Of 1887.
Inspector Miller cited as evidence
Of more concentration on accident
cases the fact that 14,770 accidents
reports were filed with the court in
the past year. as compared with
LAM n 1880.

A map prepared by the Ma
tional Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission gives q visual
picture of the transportation
problems and inconvenience to
thousands of Government en-
ployes that would be created by
placing a $35 900 900 War Depart
ment building in Virginia to pro-
vide space for 10000 employees.
The map, reproduced above,
was made to indicate the resi-
dence areas of employees of the
Navy and Munitions Buildings in
the fall of 1899, but the general
pattern is the same for all down.
town Government departments
and would vary less than 2 per
cent for War Department en-
ployes, commission officials say.
Thus, one can easily see the
great preponderance OF employees
in the War Department live in
the District of Columbia and
Maryland, while a comparatively
small number live in Virginia-as
is shown by the relative size of
the circles and the percentage
OF the total employees indicated
in the circles.
The four narrow ribbons cross
ing the Potomac River in the
map. above would be the only
fqs41x fur ~ tile people living in
those circles on the Washington
side to cross the riyer--twice
daily-to and from work in the
new building. Now look at the
four circles on the Virginia side
of the river and the percentage
of War Department employees
that live on that side.
Would it be easier for the en-
ployes represented by the circles
Evening star., 1941-08-14
The Many, Not the Few, Would Use the Bridges Daily

on the Virginia side to cross
those four narrow ribbons, or
should all OF the workers In
Washington and Maryland be
bottlenecked into those narrow
passages twice each day?
The bridge problem Of connect
ing Virginia and the District is
already acute. Why should Con-
gress approve proposal which
would aggravate an already crit
ical situation?
After looking at the map above
and usually interpreting the size
of the circles in terms of thou
sands of War Department en-
ployes one can easily understand
why Washington planners are
amazed that the plan to locate
the building across the river
should have ever been fostered.
More exact figures on the resi-
dence areas of War Department
employees were furnished the
Senate Subcommittee on Appro-
priations recently by the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission. From a traffic survey
made in the fall of 1899 by the
commission and the director of
vehicles and traffic it was learned
74.8 per cent of War Department
employees lived in Washington
and an additional lit per cent
lived in Metropolitan Maryland.
That is, 86.4 per cent of War
Department employees lived in
Washington and Metropolitan
Maryland compared with only
12.5 per cent who lived in vir-
ginia. The other IL per cent
lived in outlying sections.
Park and Planning Commission
officials say this same ratio exists

Revision in Draft
Induction System
Sought for D. {.
Changed Method Would
Provide Army Physical
Tests ct LocoI centers

Local selective service officials in
dicated today they would welcome a
revised induction system here to
meet the protests of men who have
quit their jobs only to be turned
down by Army doctors at induction
centers.
Already tested by the War De-
partment in Pennsylvania, the re-
vised system would provide for Army
physical examinations to be given
we'll ahead of the date set for in
duction
The War Department, it was
learned, has approved the change
in principle and the high command
has ordered it extended to all States
as rapidly as State selective di-
rectors and Army corps commanders
can work out details.
A local selective service official
expressed his belief that the revised
procedure could easily be worked
out here and added that local head
quarters is now awaiting final word
from the War Department.
The present practice provides for
giving Army medical examinations
at reception centers after man re-
ports for military duty. Thousands
of men passed by local doctors but
rejected at the reception centers
have protested the procedure which
forces them to wind up all their
civilian affairs and then return to
civilian life again.
In Pennsylvania the system ap-
proved in principle by the Army
calls for q pre-induction Army
physical examination board in every
metropolitan area of 100, 900 or more
population. This distribution was
designed to put board within one
days journey of every prospective
selectee in the State.
The new procedure, it was said,
is also being tried in New York,
Ohio, Indiana and California, and
Maryland is understood to be work.
