Capital Transit
Asks Permit for
Bethesda Route
Service Is Planned
From College Park
Via Silver Spring

The Maryland Public Service
Commission today has for study an
from the Capital Tran
sit Co. for permit to inaugurate
bus service between College Park
and Bethesda by way Of Silver
Spring.
President E. D. Merrill of the
transit company said in a letter to
the commission the company stood
ready to operate the line at the
earliest possible moment manpower
is available. Prior commitments in
the District, such as re-establishing
lines abandoned and establishing
new routes made necessary during
wartime, preclude the start OF opera
tions Immediately, the utility head
stated.
This is the second formal applica-
ton for the route within the past
week. Earlier, the Oriole Motor
Coach Lines of Sandy Spring filed
application for a franchise to begin
operation Of five daily round trips
between College Park and Bethesda
over the same route. The Oriole firm
stated it was prepared to begin
operations by the end Of the current
month.
OrioIe Firm Plans Outlined.
Only Wednesday night the Ia
koma Park Chamber of Commerce
heard Harry v. Dawson, owner OF
the Oriole firm, outline his plans for
early operations and the business
men voted support of his plan. Yes
terday the chambers Executive
Committee met with Mr.. Dawson
again and obtained his approval of
a suggested route through the
Takoma Park area which provides
for buses traversing East-West
highway from Silver Spring through
Takoma Park to Ager road and
thence to College Park via Univer-
sity boulevard.
The Capital Transit Co. announce
ment pointed out the East-West
highway line has been sought by
residents Of Bethesda and Silver
Spring for long time.
THE residential and business
growth of the areas affected by the
line have been of a character during
the war and potentially in the
period ahead as to make the in
stallation Of the line feasible as soon
as the company can obtain the
manpoWer to operate the buses"
Mr.. Merrill's statement declared.
Wartime ODT restrictions on
gasoline and tires and more recent
manpower problems have prevented
Capital Transit from making earlier
application for q permit, it was
stated.
Seven Scent Zone Fare.
A transit firm representative said
the proposed line would be on the
same basis as other Capital Transit
lines in Montgomery County. The
fare between College Park and
Bethesda would total IS cents. di-
vided into seven Scent zones. The
frequency of service would be deter
mined by traffic requirements.
Mr.. Dawson told The Star that
the Oriole firm also proposes a total
fare rate of IS cents from Bethesda
to College Park with division into
four zones. He added that his firm
now has the equipment and man
power to begin operations as soon
as approval is given.
The application we filed with the
Public Service Commission" Mr..
Dawson said, was filed after con-
versations with Albert E. Brault.
Montgomery County's public utili-
ties agent; with members of the Ia
koma Park Chamber of Commerce,
and requests from residents along
thls proposed route. We also have
mad requests for service from the

CAA Announces
,$16,o00,000
Airport Plan
Immediate Profit
Seen on Rental of
Proposed Facilities
BY w. H. SHIPPEN, Jr.

Plans for $4,000, 900 expansion
program at Washington's federally
owned and operated National Air
port were announced today by the
Civil Aeronautics Administration.
Although the CAA will give fur
therSeonsideration to details Of the
plan before making a formal recon-
mendation, it was pointed out most
OF the proposed new facilities could
be rented tomorrow at profit to the
Government.
The f1ve-year-old airport, consid-
cred the worlds finest at the time
of its completion, already is suffer-
ing growing pains from crowding
the expanding airline activities into
quarters whose designers had to keep
an eye on the Budget Bureau while
planning for the future.
$4,000 Cleared in Year.
During the last fiscal year the
airport cleared more than $4,000
above maintenance and operating
expenses, and should do as well or
better this year, CAA spokesman
said. A portion of the CAA's overall
expansion plan already has been
approved by the House Deficiency
Committee with an appropriation of
$3,900,000.
If passed by. Congress, this ap-
preparation would provide for four
new hangers, additions to the ter
minal building and heating plants
and finance plans for a new over
pass, connecting the airport with
Route No. l. All space in the prof.
ectedi hangers has been contracted
for at figure which would amortize
the cost in 40 years, it was said.
Harry F. Law, airport administra-
tor, was expected to make a re-
quest soon for $1,000 900 to build a
general office building for the air.
lines. Pennsylvania-Central Air
lines, which maintains it's home
Office, training schools and shops at
the airport, already has contract
ed for half the proposed total space
OF 25O,000 square feet. The CAA
said all the space will be rented in
advance before the item is sub
mitted to the Budget Bureau.
Other Projects Planned.
Other projects planned by Mr..
Law include construction of a COM
plete shopping center, an exhibition
building for showing aircraft ac-
cessories, a 150-room apartment ho-
tel, extension to the hangar cafe
terra and a 150-car garage.
A number of manufacturers are
interested in obtaining space in the
proposed exhibition building or an
adjoining area for the display of
new light planes, aircraft engines
sAnd modern flight accessories.
The proposed apartment-hotel
would accommodate passengers in
transit who might wish to rest be-
tween planes, along with q Humber
Of airport employees, whose duties
require them to be on call at all
hours. -.
One cf the most substantial inn
proyenents would tie In the old
Washington Alexandria highway,
or Route /, with the airport's road
system through an overpass over
the railroad tracks and Mount Ver-
non highway.
The overpass already is greatly
needed. airport officials said, to re-
place an inadequate service road
now connecting the airport with

Government Misfredts
Railroad Industry
BY the Associated Press,


MART1NSBURG, w. Va, Dec. IA.
Roy Barton White, president Of
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, &C
cused the Federal Government of
constant undermining of the rail-
road industry" in an address here
last night at the annual dinner of
the Martinsburg Chamber of Com
merce.
Pointing to the proposed st. Law
renee Seaway as an example of
Government "subsidiZation" of the
competitors of railroads, Mr.. White
said, These subsidies are also be-
ing given to an extravagant extent
through the building of airports and
the maintenance of public highways
for the benefit of the carriers using
these facilities in competition with
railroad service, and without requir-
ing them to pay an adequate and
fair charge for their use"
Warns of Estate Socialism"
II the national policy of paying
so much of the costs of our COM
petitors with public moneys is con-
ftinued and intensified until the rail-
roads can no longer support them
selves" he continued, no course is
open except for the Government to
lake t3fkfn oytrsAhd operate tlHm." :"
ne declared, would be the
first big step toward state socialism. !"
Asserting that he could see no
basis for supposing the American
people want this change, Mr.. White
declared that it "can be brought
about only by the insidious efforts
of that wilful minority which is try
ing in devious ways to undermine
our economic structure"
Denies Trade Restraint.
Denying the claim that railroads,
by combining into associations, had
acted in restraint of trade and in
violation Of Federal antitrust laws,
the Baltimore d Ohio president
asserted:
Tho very nature of a national
transportation system Is such that
individual carriers must consult and
confer with one another and with
shippers if the changing needs of
agriculture and industry are to be
met"
