A proposal that Washington's 5
three summer excursion and moon
light ride" steamers aid in reliev-
ing the acute public transportation
situation by operating special
ferry service for Government work.
ers between Alexandria, the Navy
Yard and the Seventh street
wharves was made last night by
Chairman Randolph Of the House
District Committee.
A special informal meeting of
the committee was called at 1920
m. tomorrow to discuss the plan.
officials of the steamboat compa-
nies have been invited to present
their views.
Representative Randolph, who has
been working for several months to
find a way to lease" the transporta-
tion problem resulting from the i'm
pact on Washington and its Metro
politan Area of thousands of addi-
tional Federal workers, said he had
learned the three Potomac River
steamers-the Mount Vernon. the
Potomac and the Robert E. Lee
are tied up at their docks for the
winter along the water front.
Mr.. Randolph expressed belief one
of these three steamboats, could
provide a ferry service between
Alexandria and the Washington
Navy Yard which would accommo-
date Government workers at that
plant as well as at Boiling Field. the
Naval Air Station and the Naval
Research Laboratories at Bellevue.
The two other steamers, he said,
should be able to provide service for
hundreds of other Government en-
ployes living in the Alexandria area
who work in Washington.
Short Walk to Work.
Ferries running from Alexandria
to the Seventh street wharves, ac-
cording to Mr.. Randolph, would
enable Government employees who
live in that vicinity to land within
walking distance of many of the
Federal buildings paralleling the
Mall. He mentioned specifically the
War, Navy, Agriculture end Justice
Departments, the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing, and the Fed
eral Trade and Interstate Commerce
Commissions.
Almost directly across the river
from Alexandria, he pointed out
are the Washington Navy Yard, the
Naval Research Laboratories, Boil
ing Field and the Naval Air Station
whose civilian employees now living
in Alexandria and the surrounding
area could be quickly served by q
ferry service. These employees now
he said, are forced to take a cir
cuituous route through dense Wash
ington traffic, covering at least five
needless miles" to reach theil

Falls Church P.-T. A.
Favors Merger Of
Town-County Schools
Proposal Voted in
Preference to Issuing
Bonds for Building
Special Dispatch to The Star.

FALLS CHURCH, Va, Feb. 21.-
A resolution favoring merger of the
Falls Church and Fairfax County
school districts was voted here last
night at special, open meeting of
the Parent Teacher Association.
The action followed nearly two
hours of heated discussion of the
issues and whether the meeting was
representative Of town sentiment
A move to adjourn quashed an at
tempt to find out how many pres
ent were freeholders in the town.
The audience simply walked out
when the motion was made.
The vote on the resolution, taken
after many persons had left. was
48 to II, with several not voting.
Members of the Town and Coun-
ty School Board outlined the argu-
ments for merger, claiming that it
offered the only immediate chance
of getting new high school for
Falls Church students.
McCandlish Asks Sentiment.
Robert McCandlish, Fairfax Coun-
ty delegate in the State Legisla-
ture, it was explained, had told
town officials he would not intro
duce the school merger bill until
the Town Council and School Board
had requested it, since a previous
public meeting, called by Harold E.
Erwin, had voted AZ to 7 against
the merger. The PIT. A. called
last nights meeting in answer to the
earlier one.
Results of the meeting are to be
conveyed to the Town Council and
School Board and to Mr.. McCand-
lish.
On questioning from the floor,
County School Board Member w.
A. Sherman admitted that the Fed
eral Government had made no
signed commitment yet on a pro-
posed 100000 grant for a high
school. He also said the county
could build the school without the
Federal grant, since it has the bor-
rowing capacity. However, he said,
he would not be justified in max
/ ing any promises.
Town School Board Member
Ralph Staebner then said the town
was in no position to build the
high school and that the project
was not justified on the basis OF
the small high school attendance
in the town.
Onnoses Rond Issue.
Asked If the town had a plan" if
current annexation proceedings to
enlarge Falls Church 60 through,
Town Council Member Mrs. E. D.
Fowler said if the school merger
does not go through the town
would have to float bond issue to
build the school and that a mer-
ger was believed preferable to a
levy.
G. T. Reeves, a town school board
member. pleaded for the mer-
ger with the argument that the
present high school is mo better
than it was so years ago, so let's
make a start at least.
Several objections from the floor
followed to giving up town school
property without definite commit
ments, whereupon Mr.. Sherman OBJ
| jected vehemently.
Several members of the County
School Board are not so enthusiastic
for this plan from fiscal stand
point" he said, land I am one OF
them. You're being just as free, it
seems to me, with the county
money as with the towns money
Certainly no one is going to profit
by this transaction; certainly not
the county for another year or two
anyway"
The Town Council has tentatively
scheduled a special meeting for
Tuesday night to consider the
merger question.

tion of Haywood's sanity. The al

old Washington girl occurred Christ

Ferry Service for War Workers

places of employment either by
private automobile or other means
Of transportation.
Further, Mr.. Randolph said the
ferry service would not interfere
with the regular moonlight" ex-
cursions of the three steamers, and
as the Governments tire rationing
program has its effect, more and
more people will be looking to the
mass transportation agencies to
carry them TO and from work
Each of the three river steamers,
Representative Randolph was told,
could operate on schedule of a
round trip an hour between Wash
ington and Alexandria, and carry a
minimum of 1000 passengers in each
direction. With two steamers op-
Grating on the Washington Alex
andria service, it was said, a half
hour schedule could be provided be-
tween these two points. If only one
of the three steamers operates be-
tween Alexandria and the Washing
ton Navy Yard, it was indicated, a
45-minute schedule could be main
tained between these two points.
Ferry Service Once Operated.
A regular ferry service was op-
Grated between Washington and
Alexandria before the advent of the
automobile.
II want to explore every posi-
bility for the relief Of our con-
gestion," said Chairman Randolph.
Mass transportation will become
increasingly acute when motor car
travel is curtailed.
The heads of our Potomac River
steamboat companies may be able
to make a substantial contribution
to the relief of the movement of
traffic"
A number of proposals have been
made to Mr.. Randolph's committee
for relieving Washington's wartime
mass transportation situation since
it began study of the problem. The
principal one called for construction
of an underground rail transporta-
ton system.
Vehicle for the transportation
study has been a bill introduced by
Representative Randolph TO exempt
Washington taxicabs from the tire
rationing restrictions. Chief oppo-
nent of this plan has been Price
Administrator Henderson. who testi-
fed several weeks ago that taxicabs
provide a luxury ride

Commission authority to fix rates

and on parking lots.
