BY Bradbury HEIGHTS Grour

Eventual construction by the Ma
ton Capital Housing Authority Of
permanent, low-cost. multi-family
housing units on the Bennings Road
Housing Project was endorsed last
night by the Bradbury Heights Citi-
zens' Association. Henry w. Austin
moved that a housing committee be
appointed to investigate the pros
poets and report to subsequent
meetings.
Since Miss Ethel E. Bonbrest's s
appeal to the Board of Zoning Ad-
justment for permission to establish
a kindergarten at 1901 Forty
fourth street Sc. was granted des-
pite opposition by the Bradbury
Heights Association. it was resolved
that a committee be appointed to
aid neighboring property owners TO
obtain new evidence and petitions
for rehearing.
The association Endorsed a letter
from the Fairfax Village Citizens
Association proposing establishment
of Boys and Girls Club, centrally
located for Bradbury Heights, Fair
fax Village, Randle Highlands, Fort
Davis, Summit Park, Hillcrest, Sky
land and Naylor Gardens.
A motion was also passed suggest
ing that the property at 42l0 Ala
bama avenue Sc, said to be leased
by the District to Clifford Lanham,
superintendent of trees and park
ing, be made into park area after
Mr.. Lanham retires.
Frank P. Randolph, association
president, reported that the con-
struction of the first and second
floors of the new Davis school at

u. S. to Play for High Stakes
AT Air PorIey With British

credit agreement that commercial
aviation would be discussed in the
near future. Congress, which has
yet to ratify the agreement, is ex-
pected to take keen interest in the
outcome of the parley. Too, future
policies of Canada, Newfoundland
or Australia are likely to be infiu-
enced by conference results.
Bases To Come Up.
Another question to come up at
Bermuda will be the future CONNER
cial use, if any, of Atlantic and
Caribbean bases leased from the
British for military purposes. Dis
cussions may be broadened to in
clude other bases in the British EN-
pire or its zones of influence, it was
said here.
Any working formula with a
semblance of permanence that may
come out of the Bermuda discussions
undoubtedly will simplify future
agreements in many parts of the
world.

announced yesterday by the State
Department. includes Chairman
George P. Baker, director of trans

formed in October, 1943, that it is
