Macarthur Boulevard
Police Jurisdiction
Ruling 10 Be Sought

The Maryland Attorney General
will be asked to determine who has
police jurisdiction along Macarthur
boulevard in Montgomery County.
United States Commissioner F..
Archie Meatyard, jr., of Bethesda,
said yesterday he would write At
torney General Hall Hammond re-
questing an opinion.
The question was raised by Trial
Magistrate Warren Browning of
Bethesda Police Court, who contends
that only the Army Engineers and
other Federal authorities have power
to make arrests for offenses com
mitted along the boulevard.
Mr.. Meatyard, who supported
Judge Browning's contentious, said
he believes the jurist has made a
good study" of the situation and
was right in basing his arguments
on law passed by the Maryland
Legislature in 1912.
The legislative act, according to
Judge Browning, gave the Federal
Government any authority over the
road which the State previously
possessed. Prior to the enactment
of the law, both the Government and
State had concurrent jurisdiction
he said.
Meanwhile the Army district en-

former Air Forces sergeant from
Chambersburg, Pa, will hate to see

certain plane flies in from the At
lantic before midnight tomorrow.
The plane he's looking for will
have aboard his 32-yeaf-old wife
and 1-year-old daughter.
But Mr.. Tarner, who came here
to see if the State Department
could help him, isn't very optimistic
that the wife he hasn't seen since
1916 and the daughter he's never
seen will be able to make the
New Year eve deadline.
tIf they don't get mere by mid
night tomorrow, officials said, it
may be seven or eight years"
before they will be eligible for
admission to the United States
under immigration quotas. These
quotas are waived under the
sweetheart law which expires
tomorrow. The law was de-
signed to reunite American SOL

Mr.. Tarner's difficulty is the same
as that which faces hundreds OF

which Representative Gross, Repub-

BOSTON, Dec. 30-Twenty- five
persons were burned or injured by
flying glass last night when a series
of terrifying underground eXplo-
sions tossed manhole covers high
in the air, blew out fronts of a
score of stores and windows Of
office buildings and left busy Dewey
Square in the downtown section
streWn with rubble.
Deputy Fire Chief William F.
Quigley said half the injured were
fremen who were burned prying
open manhole covers after the first
few of six blasts. None was ap-
parently hurt seriously. Twenty
were treated at City Hospital.
Chief Quigley said the explosions
apparently were caused by accumu-
lation of gases in pipes under snow
covered streets. The nature of the
gas was not determined immedi-
ately.
The deputy chief reported that
bursts of flame shooting from the
covers pried open by the firemen
burned many of them on the legs.
The blasts shattered windows as
high as the eleventh story of Office
buildings and blew out every front
window in one six-story office
structure.

By Thomas R. Henry
Stor Stoff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Dec. 3o.-The Army,
Navy and Air Force are embarked
on s5O0,OO0,OOO annual scientific
research and development program,
80 per cent of which is secret.
The vast scope of research for
national defense was described be-
fore the American Association for
the Advancement of Science here
yesterday by DR.. L. r. Hafstad, sec
retary of the Joint Research and
Development Board of the services
The sum involved, by far the
greatest expenditure for science in
history, was described by DR.. Haf-
stad as sufficient to build and COM
pletely equip 20 such institutions as
Princeton University every year. 1t
is not too much he stressed, if Con-
sreSS is willing TO appropriate q
total of $1000O,OOO, 900 annually for
all national defense activities.
Relatively little of the research
work is done within the services
themselves but is distributed among
contractors, chiefly universities and
industrial laboratories. 1t ranges
DR.. Hafstad said, from the most
high brow research imaginable in
pure science to practical engineer
ing Development The only part
open to the public is the work OF
the Office of Naval Research which
is making many grants for pure re-
search not Immediately associated
with defense. The secrecy is essen
tial, DR.. Hafstad emphasized, al
though there is always the danger
of it becoming a cloak under which
to hide lack of knowledge and in
competence"

program, DR.. Hafstad said. repre-
