have become "wasteful" and social

ton burning issue.
Less than a month ago an appro-
priation controversy broke out be-
tween the Board of Education and
county officials. Hundreds turned
out to state their views on the
amount of money that should be set
aside for the schools. In the end
the commissioners approved a bud
get approximately s61l 900 less than
the school authorities asked.
Group Upholds Current Program.
The parents who want more at
tenticn to reading, writing, arith-
metic and American history, were
answered indirectly last week by an
other group. This group wrote the
Board of Education that it was
firmly behind the program now
followed in the schools.
Among those signing the letter OF
Endorsement were Herbert N. Eaton
president of the Montgomery Coun-
ty Civic Federation; Russell I
Whyte, chairman of the federation S
Education Committee, and Nathan
I r. Gilbert, head of the countys
Council of Parent Teacher Associa-

Third Of D. C.-Jessup
Section Of Parkway 10
Baltimore Graded

Grading has been completed on
the first unit of the super road de-
signed to make life easier for Wash
ington- to-Baltimore drivers.
Writing in the July issue of Civil
Engineering, Harold j. Spelman,
Public Roads Administration di-
vision engineer, says six miles of
the 1834 mile right of way from
Washington to Jessup road are
ready for the concrete mixer when
funds are available.
Plans are ready, he says, to COM
plete grading the remaining 12A
miles.
To Meet New York Avenue.
The Maryland State Roads Com
mission will continue the parkway
from Jessup road and complete the
111a miles to Baltimore, Mr.. Spell
man pointed out.
Plans call for the parkway to con-
meet with New York avenue here
which will link up with the proposed
Annapolis Expressway and possibly
with the Anacostia Parkway, Mr..
Spelman said.
! To permit high-speed traffic,
there will be nine highway-crosslng
structures providing access to the
parkway. In addition, there will be
two crossings of branch line rail-
roads, crossings over the Patuxent
and Little Patuxent Rivers and five
overpasses at local roads.
Mr.. Spelman pointed out plans
for the structures were approved by
the Fine Arts Commission. The
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission, the State Roads Com
mission, the National Park Service,
the county engineer and the Mary
land National Capital Park and
Planning Commission all had a
hand in the new program.
First Step Taken in 1888.
The first step toward the new
parkway, Mr.. Spelman recalls, was
taken in 1888 when preliminary
studies were made by the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission.
Tripling of traffic volume on the
Baltimore boulevard in less than a
decade emphasized the need for
modern parkway over the 30-mile
stretch between Washington and
Baltimore, the article explains.
Work on the project started In
1912 on receipt of a S2,00000O grant
from the Federal Works Admins
| tration.
