Mccoy Denies Commission
Opposes Macarthur Policy
By the Associated Press

Maj. Gen. Frank R. Mccoy de-
clared yesterday that the Far East
ern Commission has no quarrel with
Gen. Macarthur on his administra-
ton of Japan.
Gen. Mccoy is United States rep
resentative on the ommission-11-
nation policy-making body for ia
pan-and it's chairman.
Gen. Mccoy was asked at a news
conference about press report from
Tokyo that the United States is pre-
pairing a new statement of its views
on the scope of the commission's
powers and functions.
He said he could not comment on
that, but the commission frequently
discusses its powers and there al
ways will be some differences among
the Allies on that subject.
However, he said, there is no dis
position on the part of the COM
mission or the United States Gov
eminent to take issue with Gen
Macarthur.

opportunity to prevent the re-

humanitarian lines with the prog

biological and material sciences TIC
accomplish this, he added, All Club

Doubling Of Cost KILL
plan for Field House
AT Turkey Thicket

Construction costs have risen so
high that the sole bid on field
house for the Turkey Thicket Play
ground was more than twice the
amount of money Congress had al
lotted and one of five bids on SUBJ
stitute play projects ran 100 per cent
over the amount bid on the same
project year ago.
This was revealed by the District
Recreation Board last night as ii
held its monthly meeting In ar

other local firm, for a hard surface

Washington. The center was Dor.
rowed' by the Navy as a storage
yard during the war.
Wender Reelected.
Addressing record gathering Of
civic representatives, Harry S
Wender, chairman of the Recreation
Board, referred to the bids as evil
dence of the difficulty the board
would have in meeting the requests
of civic groups for play area i'm
provements.
Mr.. Wender was reelected chair
man at the meeting and James E
Schwab and Alice M. Hunter were
renamed vice chairman and secre-
tary, respectively.
In general testimony brought out !:
Swimming pools are urgently
needed throughout the city and
recent drownings point up the need
Some areas, like the far North
east and extreme Northwest sections
are without any play areas at all.
The central area of the city is
sorely in need of ground already
bought but occupied by houses which
no one feels should be torn down
until housing shortages are met.
The District Recreation De-
partment and play agencies in other
cities are having extreme difficulty
in obtaining surplus Army and Navy
sports equipment.
Qualified summer play leaders
are hard to find.
The District Pound should be re-
moved from the Randall Recreation
Center in Southwest Washington
Playground equipment is being
stolen throughout the city.

During the year the banks have
been active in soliciting and enter
tanning applications for loans to
veterans under the CT Bill of Rights,
he stated, adding that the banks
have helped veterans avoid unwise
investments and kept them from
entering business that could not
turn out successfully.

l. 1941, through April 80, 1916, al
most $500, 000, 900 of Government
securities were sold in the Capital

ing the Treasury of the burden Of

The troupe, so in all, will arrive
April 80 from England with bag
gage, scenery, costumes and all pro-
duction equipment necessary for the
repertory run. Because of the heavy
expense and the necessarily brief
run, prices probably will be scaled
up to $6 evenings and $3.50 at matt
nees. The Shuberts, in light of the
cultural implications Of the trip,
have guaranteed Theater, Inc,
which is sponsoring the Broadway
run, one of three theaters suitable
to the needs Of the project. Thea
ter, Inc, incidentally, is presenting
the current and highly successful
revival of "Pygmalion," starring
Gertrude Lawrence and Raymond
Massey.
