Is Approved, 10 10 8,
|by Civic Federation

BY a vote of 10 to 8, the Mont
gomery County Civic Federation last

ment. The group urged all its men,

/. Ten thousand registered voters
of the county have recently signed a
petition asking that the question Of
preparing a charter be placed on the
ballot at the coming election

political and is strongly supported
by many members of both parties.

been recognized by the Civil Service
Commission in granting Federal en-
ployes the right to participate In

moved from the hands of the voters
since the election of 1914 in which
charter was defeated. This clause
was eliminated.

ton urging the Montgomery County
Housing Authority to do everything

Higher Parking Rates
On Downtown Streets
Advocated by Howat

All-day parking on downtown Off
street spaces should be discouraged
by rate scales which increase with
time parked up to 81, a joint meet
ing of the Washington Chapter,
American Society Of, Landscape
Architects, and the Washington
Landscape Architects Club was told
last night.
The Capitals parking problem was
discussed at the session in the High
lands Apartments by panel COM
posed of P. Y. K. Howat, chairman
of the District Motor Vehicle Park
ing Agency; Charles T. McGavin,
department analyst, and
Merel S. Sager, representing the Ma
tional Park Service.
Mr.. Howat said rates reaching a
81 maximum would make more space
available for short-term parkers
wishing to do business downtown.
He emphasized that additional Off
street facilities were needed urgently,
but should be provided by private
interests rather than by the Gov
ernment.
Underground parking beneath the
Mall and Ellipse is impractical, the
panel agreed. It was explained such
projects would be virtually prohibi-
tive in cost because of drainage
problems and would create new
major rush-hour snarls.
Wilbur Simonson, representing the
Public Roads Administration, told
the meeting a combination of new
facilities both for downtown short
time parking and fringe" an-day
parking was the only solution.

ming of the National Capital Park

A former italian partisan, a Can
top-born Chinese relief expert, an
Agriculture Department executive
and a department store job printer
today became the last four Dis
trict men to be inducted into the
Army for 1946 by selective service.
Weightman School, where the men
reported at 7:30 am. for their ride
to Fort George G. Meade, was far
cry from its wartime appearance
when hundreds of men jammed its
corridors every time selective serv-
ice sent through batch of troop
material Today's four tnductees
were lost in the barnlike structure.
Just one soldier showed up to drive
the men to Fort Meade. His enthu-
siasm for the task was considerably
tempered by the discharge he expects
to receive in a couple of weeks.
For Arturo Croci, %, the former
Partisan, life in the Army will be
largely anticlimax.l He was in Milan
with Italian pro-Allied irregulars
when Mussolini and his mistress
were hanged by mob In April, 1S45.
Operating In North Central Italy In
conjunction with British and Amer
ican OSS agents, Mr.. Croci himself
blew up two bridges,
Commsnded BY AIexander. s.
One bridge, he said. was blown
Just as a trainload of Germans was
passing over the span. For these
feats, he received = letter Of COM
from British Field Mar
shall Alexander.
Mr.. Croci, who speaks English
despite his American
birth, lives at 326 Shepherd street
NV. with his father, August, and
two brothers, Alfonso and Charley.
He arrived from Borgataro, Italy,
aboard the Marine Carp in June.
He and Alfonso, who came along
this morning to say good-by, ex-
planned that Arturo was born in
washington but returned to Italy
for a visit with his mother at the
age of II.
His mother, Theresa, and two sis
ters are now living in Borgataro,
Parma Province. Mr.. Croci, like his
three comrades, a volunteer, ex-
planned that he hoped the Army
would send him to the ETO SO he
could see his mother again soon.
"The Germans shot her because /
was a partisan" he said. "Her lung
is not so good anymore on account
of the wound"
