Arnold Line Weiqhs
RossIyn Turnaround
Plan at 0DT Request
Move Urged as Step
To Improve Service
In Virginia Areas

The Arnold Operated Bus Line
which serves nearby Virginia, has
been requested by the once of
Defense Transportation to "con-
sidern stopping it's buses at Ross
lyn Circle during the off-peak hours
IN order to give additional service
in the Virginia areas, 1t was learned
today.
Milton E. Diehl, ODT's regional
transportation director for Northern
Virginia, said the Washington Re-
gional Transportation Committee of

pany to "give consideration to the
Rosslyn turnaround plan after the

ordered copper cent cut in gaso-
line consumption by public trans
portation systems.
Mr.. Diehl said he had received
complaints from Virginia residents
that bus service had been spread
pretty thin" after the gasoline re-
duction order went into effect.
He said the committee, in sug-
gesting that the company recon-
slider stopping part of its buses at
RosSlyn Circle, pointed out that in
so doing better service could be given
Virginia commuters.
The plan, first sposored last July
by District Traffic Director Van
Duzer, has been bitterly opposed by
the Arnold line. as well as by vari-
GUS organizations in the Virginia
area.

Relief for Virginia from what
Gov. Darden has termed 'inequit-
able" gasoline regulations remained
in doubt today after a conference
here arranged by Representative
Burch, Democrat. of Virginia and
attended by two State ofiicials.
After the conference, which was
held yesterday in the once Of Mr..
Burch. participants said only that
they were hopeful" some adjust
ment would be made.
The virginians, Brig. Gen. J. A.
Anderson, State highway commits
sioner; c. r. Joyner, jr., State
motor vehicle commissioner, and
Mr.. ,Burch, laid their appeal before
e. B. Swanson, director Of research
and assistant to the deputy admin
istrator Of the Petroleum Admin
istration for War. -
See No Reason for Ban.
1--WE see no reason why there
should be any difference in the ban
on gas in Virginia and In other
parts Of the seaboard States" Mr..
Burch stated, adding that the situa-
ton was thoroughly discussed and
the provision that rationing regula-
tions be made Nation wide was
urged.
He described the principal source
OF contention as the fact that
States adjoining Virginia are ex-
empt from the pleasure driving
ban, and said 1--WE feel we should be
treated equitably with other States"
PAW officials received their plea
"sympathetically," he said, but no
commitments were made by them.
Gov. Darden said yesterday be

tions in Virginia were necessary,
declaring that transportation and

Mr.. Boyd, in a letter to Repre-
sentative Robertson, Democrat, Of
Virginia, stated that I'VE In the

tioning any more than is necessary,
and Administrator Ickes has stated
time and again that he is unalter-

Amateur Opera Groups Needed
ToPromote Music, Says ChoppIe
Guest Conductor at
Water Cote Critical
Of Capitalization

There is q great need for amateur
opera groups in ali cities as means
Of promoting universal enjoyment
of good music, according to Stanley
Chapple, guest conductor of the
National Symphony Orchestra al
the Water Gate concert tonight
and tomorrow night.
Music is in a very bad state
right now" he declared in an in
terview at the Water Gate yester-
day. "It has become a little bit OF
an artificial cult. There are too
many people who want to know the
name Of the composer of piece of
music before they will say whether
they like it or not"
young musicians band together in
opera, ballet and chamber music
groups in their own cities, so that
music lovers from all walks of life
might participate in 1t without in
hibition. He also spoke of the
benefits of concerts for special au-
diences by major musical groups,
such as the Philadelphia Orches-
tra's concerts for the trade unions.
Critical Of Centraliza ton.
''Music today is too greatly CEN
tralized," he declared, pointing out
that only a select few musicians
reach the top and only a certain
group of people can attend good
concerts because of the expense and
lack of opportunities involved.
The English conductor himself
began his career at the age of 16
when the music master Of an Or
chestra in London, whom he was
understanding, was taken Ill. Ac-
tual experience, step by step, is
the best method of becoming q
skilled musician, he believes.
Mr.. Chapple, conductor of the
orchestra. opera and choral depart
ments at the Peabody Conservatory
in Baltimore, has noticed baffing
difference between English and
American audiences.
Although most people consider
the English little more reserved
than Americans" he said. Amer
ican audiences seem little more
loath to express their feelings dur
ing a performance. I have never
heard any kissing here, as I have
in England, but on the other hand
I have met little unchecked en-
thusiasm among audiences here"
Fewer String Instrument Students.
Mr.. Chapple fears there will be
a shortage of stringed instrument
players after the war.

oboe and BRASS" he said, probably

- HOME FRI ONT FORECAST - Shortages May Compel OPA
 To Consider Milk Rationing By Fall
BY BETTY MACDONALD (NEA Staff Correspondent

Washington, June 5-Rationing milk for children and grownups in fair amounts is a tricky problem, and OPA doesn't want to tackle 1t unless it's absolutely necessary.
 However, with labor and feed shortages, bad weather and an ex- tra stiff milk production goal to meet, agriculture economists believe milk rationing may be put into ef- feet this autumn, possibly through priority system.
 Milk shortages are being felt now in many industrial areas, especially in the South, where communities are attempting to work out home spun rationing programs, Despite growing demands, there will always be enough milk for the children of America, economists promise.
