Then power boat was sent
in to within 300 feet of shore
and crewman from the Cedar
walked the rest of the way to
shore over the ice, and led the
Valbushes and Mr.. jacobson to
the boat.
"We were certainly glad to

Rhode Island Avenue
Survey Authorized

An engineering survey to deter
mine the Feasibility of extending
Rhode Island avenue from Hyatts-
vile to Beltsville, a. distance OF
about miles, soon will be under
taken in Prince Georges County.
The survey was authorized yes
terday by the county commissioners
at Upper Marlboro. 1t was recon-
mended by the commissioners Ad-
visory Board In a letter from Edgar
A. Merkle, chairman.
The commissioners said the ex-
tension would greatly relieve traffic
congestion of the Baltimore-Wash-
ington boulevard.
The Advisory Board suggested
consideration of alternate routes.
One would parallel the Capital
Transit Co. Streetcar tracks. The
other would use the streetcar right
of-way If buses replace the street.
cars. The utility sought to abandon
the streetcar line earlier this year
but its request was denied by the
Maryland Public Service Commis-
SION
The Advisory Board reported that
the stirvey would be made by the
engineering firm of Ballard & Pad
dock at a cost of about $500.
MIR. Merkle said the scope of such
q project would not be within the
financial capabilities of the county
alone" But he explained, 1.-The pos
session. of such comprehensive
plan would be useful in enlisting
the financial aid of either or both
the Maryland State Roads Commis-
sion and the United States Public
Roads Administration"
In other action, the commissioners
accepted Colebrook road, Silver Hill,
for permanent maintenance by the
county. A 100000 housing prof.
ect Is under construction on 400
acres in the area.
The commissioners ordered one
way traffic for two streets to the
county courthouse parking lot. They
limited parking in front of the
County Service Building, Hyatts-
vile. to half hour periods.

U. 5. Gets Early Start
In Restoring Defenses
OF Western Europe
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

The United States is getting
of to an Unexpectedly early
start toward restoring the mill
tary strength of Western Europe.
There has been some official con-
cern here for months over how the
defenses of leading non- Communist
countries in Europe might be boil
stored pending congressional action
on this country's formal program of
military support.
AT least a part of the answer ap-
peared today to have been given in
an Associated Press dipatch from
Frankfurt reporting that the Amer
ican Army has secretly revitalized
three French divisions with new
American equipment valued at S.
100000. Three divisions are said
now to be on a war footing in the
French zone of occupied Germany.
Military and State Department
officials maintained silence on the
Frankfurt report, but there was no
tendency in any quarter to deny
the disclosure.
Authority Not Clear.
In the absence of official informa- =
ton here, however, it was not clear
on what authority the American
high command-presumably with
President Truman's approval-had
made the arms available to the
French. The Frankfurt story spoke
of them as having been loaned.
l. Evidently the new equipment came
out of Gen. Lucius B. Clay's reserve
stocks and is being replaced by new
shipments of supplies to Gen. Clay
from the United States.
The United States is known to
have received arms requests from
countries worried about the posi-
bility of Russian aggression. Nor
way put in an urgent application
for military help early last sum-
mer, and the State and Defense
Departments gave it very favorable
consideration. But there has never
been any disclosure as to whether
the Norwegians actually received
American aid.
Three Considerations.
In the case of the newly disclosed
assistance to the Frnech army it
appears probably that three consid-
erations were paramount in the
thinking of officials here:
/. The long-raIge aim Of the.
Truman administration-wi sup
port of Republican foreign policy
LEADERSHIP build up the Western
European bloc as center of mill
tary power and a stabilizing force
to offset Russian power in Eastern
Europe.
2. The urgent need to undertake
this as quickly as possible, particu-
larly at the point where any Soviet
threat most likely would fall, name
ly, Western, Germany.
3. The desirability of having in
the French zone of occupation a
force strong enough to deal with
any international effort by the
Communists to disrupt the stability
of Western Germany.
France has been peculiarly de-
pendent on military help from the
United States since the war. This
is due to the fact that when Frances
defeated armies were being recon-
structed after that country's liber-
alton from Nazi occupation, they
were equipped almost exclusively
with American supplies. Moreover,
as q result of war destruction and
the need to rebuild its civilian. econ
omy, France has been less able than
Britain to undertake any large scale
rearmament program of its own.

piled.
Heard Two Shots.
Sergt. Antelli said, Antico then
called to him:
Come back here, Bob, want
you to be witness to this"
Sergt. Antelli said he ran back
toward the cells but before he got
there, two shots rang out. Moore
was on the cell floor.
Antico readily gave up the gun
then produced and turned over an
other pistol.
Moore was pronounced dead on
arrival at st. Francis Hospital.
