.Leesburg Proceeding
With Plan 10 Restore
Colonial Atmosphere
SpeeioI Di.poteh 10 The Stor

LEESBURG, Va, Feb. 26.-Plans
to restore the Colonial atmosphere
of this historic town. which served
as the capital of the United States
during the War of 1912. have been
approved by the Leesburg Business
Association.
AS the first step, the association
has authorized a special commit
tee to organize Colonial Leesburg,
Inc, nonproflt group, to pro-
mote Colonial appearance in the
town and publicize its back
ground
According to the association,
the proposed restoration would
"recapture much of the old charm
which is one of Leesburgs prin-
cipal assets
After formation of Colonial
Leesburg, Inc, it is planned to
employ an architect to make
drawings for the Colonial trans
formation of the two business
blocks on King street and possibly
on Market street.
The drawings would serve as a
guide for the remodeling work
which would be undertaken VOL
unfairly by the merchants.
The project is the outgrowth
of a suggestion made at an asso-
citation meeting more than four
months ago that an overall archi-
tectural plan on a colonial scale
would re-create the towns old
world atmosphere.
! B. Powell Harrison, jr., was
named head of a committee to
investigate the possibilities of such
a project. Under the newly adopt
ed plan, the directors of Colonial
Leesburg, Inc, numbering about
10, will be named from q list of
civic leaders. The directors will
name officers to handle the res
toration.
A resolution passed by the busi-
ness association says the restora-
ton will necessitate continuous
and intense work over a long
period of years. And there will
be no godfather to the project
such as there was in the restora-
ton of Colonial Williamsburg in
the person of John D. Rookie
feller, jr.
| Numerous property owners here
already have indicated. through,
that they plan to take part in
the project.

Hudgins Voices Hopes
OF Court Stream|ininq
In Virginia by 1850
By the Associoted Press

RICHMOND. Va, Feb. 90
Hopes that proposed notifications
in the procedures of the State
judicial system will be effective
by January l were voiced today by
Chief Justice Edward w. HudginS.
Chief Justice Hudgins earlier
was elected first president of the
newly-formed Virginia Judicial
Council.
The proposed notifications,
which would streamline many of
the current court procedures. were
outlined at a conference of about
10 Virginia judges and lawyers in
the State capitol.
Immediately after his election,
Chief Justice Hudgins called on
all Circuit Court judges to initiate
public meetings of local bar asso-
Citations and the public to discuss
the proposals which have been
drafted by the Judicial Council.
At the opening session. the
chief justice charged the Virginia
General Assembly with being
guilty of gross negligence in
failing to appropriate funds to
defray the expense" of examining
the States judicial procedure.
The council is composed of the
chief justice, attorney general,
five trial judges, four practicing
lawyers, and is aided by the chair
man of the Committee on Legis-
lation and Law Reform of the Vir-
ginia State Bar Association.
Among the proposals drafted by
the judicial conference and sub
iect to approval by the State Su-
preme Court of Appeals is one to
reduce the size of records going
from lower courts to the appellate
court.
Costs to be Reduced.
If this proposal is adopted, labor
and costs of copying records by
court clerks will be materially re-
duced, it was pointed out at one
of the panel discussions.
Another proposal calls for pre-
trial conferences between opposing
lawyers and the judge sitting in on
the case.
At the concluding afternoon ses-
sion when the permanent Judicial
Council was formed, Judge J. Jor-
dan Temple of Prince George
County was elected vice president;
Judge Burnett Miller, jr., Cul-
peper, secretary, and Judge Floyc
Kellam. Princess Anne County
treasurer.
The newly-formed group. which
plans to meet annually, will be
composed of all judges of record
Federal judges practicing in Vir-
ginia will be made honorary non
voting members.
