With it's four present major

District Highway Department is
making plans for its next big

streets, said the two jobs would
cost about $15,000,000.
Scheduled to be finished be-
tween November and the middle
of winter are the Whitehurst
Freeway, the South Capitol Street
Bridge. the new Highway Bridge
and the Dupont Circle Underpass,
in that order.
From that time on, there will be
no money available for new con-
struction projects until new ap-
are obtained on July
l, 1850. Since it takes at least six
months to get a site ready for q
contractor. the department can
not plan to start on the new prof.
ects before January l, 1851.
Need Additional Bridge.
But the Commissioners now
have the departments report on
the need for an additional bridge
over the Anacostia.
Mr.. Harrison said the exact 10
cation of the bridge could not be
announced. The National Capital
Park and Planning Commission
has approved building of the
bridge on the line of Massachu-
setts avenue Sc
1t was learned, however, that
highway officials are disposed
toward building it in line with
East Capitol street. on the theory
there already are two bridges
across the southern section of the
river-Sousa and Anacostia-and
the South Capitol street span will
make a third.
The Military road project con-
templates in realignment into a
dual highway of the narrow and
winding thoroughfare through
Rock Creek Park from Thirteenth
to Twenty-seventh streets.
To Include New Bridge.
1t is planned to include a new
bridge over Rock Creek. en1 to

improvements of this cross town
route has been under considera-
ton for four or five years, and is
viewed as a. link in the gigantic
Fort Drive highway belt around
the District.
Meanwhile, the Highway De-
partment expects to begin this fall
on an underpass at the B. & O.
Railroad tracks on Kansas avenue
NE. This project, which will cost
approximately $500, 900, is ex.
pected to take about a year tc
complete.

Ellsworth Drive
Rezoning Plea
Again
Planners Cite Conflict
With Master Plan
For Silver Spring

For the second time in two yeaQ,
the Maryland-National Capital
Park and Commission has recon-
mended denial of petitions seeking
Redistribution of residential A
property on Ellsworth drive be-
tween Fenton and Cedar streets,
Silver Spring.
The applications we're among
three which the planning agency
yesterday asked the Montgomery
County Council to reject. Three
others were recommended for ap-
proval.
The petitions affecting Ellsworth
drive were filed by Claude Living
ston. jr., for the rezoning of five
lots and Phil D. Poston, for three
lots. Hearings are scheduled for
7:30 pm. September 13 in the. Sill
yer Spring Liquor Dispensary
Building.
1947 Attempt Recalled.
In its recommendation the COM
mission recalled that the same
property was involved in an at
tempt in the fall of 1947 to ex-
pand the Silver Spring business
district north and east of the
Hecht Co. store at Fenton street
and Ellsworth drive.
The attempt failed when the
then Board of County Commits
sioners rejected the various petit
tions in December of that year
in accordance with the planning
commission's recommendations
At that time, those opposing the
applications claimed their ap-
proval would reduce the value Of
homes in the area and might re-
suit in the extension of CONNER
cial zoning as far north as Sligo
Creek parkway
The proponents contended ad-
ditional commercially zoned land
was needed in view of the COM
munity's growth.
Conflict With Zoning Plan.
The commission pointed out yes
terday that the two petitions in
question are in conflict with its
master zoning plan for the Silver
Spring business district.
The commission added that the
plan, adopted in December, 1947.
has been indorsed by the Silver
Spring Board of Trade and vir-
tually all the citizens associa-
tions representing the areas ad.
iacent to the business district.

proval was petition by j. w.

cation from residential A to com.

stead's second addition to Ken

The average man of the world
feels that the Christian religion is
a Joy killer, because it places so
many taboos upon its followers.
He is convinced that the Christian
life is a poor humdrum affair; and
he has a certain feeling of pity in
his heart for the victim who has
TO say to so many types of pleas
ure: Il dare not take part"
But there is one thing that such
a person overlooks. BY reason of
the Joy which a Christian has in
Christ, he no longer finds any par
ticular delight in the questionable
pleasures Of the man of the world.
Our answer, then, can be when
people feel sorry for US: Spare
your pity; as a Christian / have a
JOY that is beyond compare, a peace
that passes all understanding.
A genuine Christian does not 90
around whimpering about the sacri-
fees he is making or the self-denial
he is practicing. Those who are
always complaining about the sacri- |
flee which Christianity involves, |
think lightly of the "unsearchable |
riches in Christ forgiveness of |
sins, peace with God, heaven. A
Christian gives up certain things;
he gives up much But
he gets infinitely more than he
gives up, and the joy of getting
he abiding and enduring treasurers
n Christ make him forget all about

Of the South could provide for an
adequate system Of education in
their own states if they would. II
has been said they refuse to tax
their own natural resources as is
being done in the North. Reference
was made to North Carolina with
the extensive tobacco industry
which, it IS said, is not taxed as
it should be in view of the fact
that funds are lacking in that state
for adequate educational facilities
Undoubtedly other industries are in
the same category.
This proposal to provide federal
grants for education is not a new
idea. 1t has been proposed for a
long time It was back in 1886
that the first bill was introduced
in Congress for 300 millions of fed
eral aid to save our schools"
Similar bills have been introduced
in every Congress since. but never
passed. Meanwhile, what have the
states been doing? Have they been
providing greater aid for educa-
tion2 u. S. Office of Education rec
Ords show that between 1886 and
l947 the states themselves, To-
gether with their local subdivisions,
increased the financial support of
their schools from 81 $50, 1889 to
s.. l24. 550,345, a gain of 81 ,467, ISL
407, or five times the 300 million
dollars sought from Uncle Sam.
No right thinking person viii
object TO reasonable aid for educa-
ton. II is a truism that needs no
argument that every child should
be able to obtain an adequate educa-
ton. But the chief point we wish
to make here IS that every dollar
of the 300 millions which the fed
eral treasury will be asked to dis
tribute under this bill for school
aid will come from the taxpayers
of the 48 states and from nowhere
else. It will be far from being a
gift"
A similar bill was passed by the |
Senate and killed by the House |
during the 80th Congress. The pres
ent bill has again been passed by |
the Senate and remains to be con |
sldered by the House. However, |
reports from Washington indicate
the House action will be favorable |
this time and federal aid to educa-

urged legislation by the national

Where Does The

been informed. has gone on record
IN opposition TO Senate Bill 246
that proposes TO appropriate 300
million dollars for the aid of educa-
ton. This bill has already been
passed by the Senate, and reports
are that it will probably pass the
House and become law.
do not know what reasons
caused the Libby organization TO
take a stand against federal aid to
education. However, there have
been strong objections to such
policy for many years and some
of those objections undoubtedly in
duced the local people to decide
against the present measure.
For years, now, the spenders in
WashingtOn-and out in the states
as well-have attempted to make
the people believe that subsidies
and other OUTLAWS by the federal
government are a gift" to them.
The idea has been that no one has
TO pay-least of all the home
folks. Congress just passes a bill,
Uncle Sam cOnjures up the money,
and there it is. But for quite some
time now the people, especially the
taxpayers. have begun to see
through this costly fakerg. A con-
stantly skyrocketing federal budget
has been proof enough of what is
really taking place.
In proof of the fact that federal
grants are not free and easy gifts
let's look little into this pro
posed gift Of 300 million dollars
to the schools Of the nation. This
examination brings out the sur 1
prising information that 81 states
will pay into this 300 million dollar
fund more than they will receive
from it. And one of the states
that will pay more than they will [
receive is Montana.
Our own state will contribute 20
this federal fund $858,OOO and will
receive from the fund $685., 900. A
simple problem in subtraction shows
that aMontana will contribute S273.-
900 more than it will receive. In
other words, this federal-aid-to-
education bill will be no aid TO
Montana education.
The II states that will be bene-
fitted by the bill lie almost exclus- !
lively in the South and Southwest.
They are Alabama, Arizona. Ar
kansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Missis-
sippi, Louisiana, New Mexico, North .
Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina.
South Dakota, Tennessee. Texas
