Preferential System Is Set Up.
For Auto Parking at Pentugon

A new ''preferentia" system Of
parking Of cars at the Pentagon in
which persons with the most i'm
portant positions presumably will
get spaces closest the building, was
announced today.
But the Military District OF
Washington, in announcing the al
locations plan for the $500 spaces,
did not say just who will get the
best spots nor what yardstick for
selection will be used.
Rather. the announcement stated,
the Army, Navy and Air Force De-
partments and the Once of the Sec
retary of Defense will be given au-
thority to determine space priorities
for their own personnel. Heretofore,
the allocations have been made by
the Military District headquarters.
Evening star., 1948-12-08

The current ALLEGATION OF spaces
at the Mall and River entrances,
where the secretaries and other top
officials now park, will not be
changed.
A change was indicated, according
to the Military District, by the fact
that nearly $4,000 persons now are
employed at the Pentagon and that
the status Of personnel" is chang
ing constantly. The plan has the
approval of Defense Secretary For
restal's Office, it was said.
