Planners May Scrap
Sesqui Exhibit Under
Fund Cut 10 $4,000
By Nelson M. Shepard

The National Capital Park and
Planning Commission today will
decide whether it is worth while
to employ its staff to prepare a
"paltry" $4,000 exhibit of WASH
ington city planning for the Ses-
quicentennial celebration.
That's all the Sesquicentennial
Commission is allowing" said
Planning Director John A. Nolen,
jr. He said the Sesquicentennial
leaders turned down a Planning
Commission request for an extra
$35 900.
The question of going ahead
with an inferior exhibit to be dis
played in the Corcoran Gallery OF
Art was on the agenda today as
the planners opened their three
day monthly meeting. Staff men,
bers pointed to a 100000 expense
account given the Philadelphia
Planning Commission for similar
exhibit
Exhibit Would Be Unworthy.
Chairman William w. Wurster
of the planning commission here
had complained to Sesquicenten-
nial officials that no exhibit
worthy of the National Capital
could be arranged for $4,000.
Col. Vincent E. Stack, land pur-
chasing officer. reported that pur-
chase contracts now have been OBJ
tanned on the last Of 13 improved
properties within the boundary
lines of Fort Reno Recreation
Center in the northwest section.
Deferred during war years, this
acquisition program was resumed
last spring. The area lies general
ly between Chesapeake and Fes-
senden streets, Belt road and
Howard street. It includes the
Reno Reservoir and the Alice Deal
Junior High School and fronts the
Woodrow Wilson High School,
which lies across Chesapeake
street to the south.
Action on 2 Bills Sought.
Other action was expected to-
day on two new bills the planners
have been asked to indorse. One
offered by Representative Cooper,
Democrat. of Tennessee would
give the New York Avenue Presby-
terian Church the deed to a small
plot OF park land in front of its
entrance for the sum of 81. The
act would be in memory of Presi-
dent Abraham Lincoln, a pew
holder of the church.
! The second bill by Senator Ke-
fauver. Democrat. of Tennessee
would authorize the purchase OF
the Gen. Washington "Headquar-
ters" house at 3051 M street NV.
or otherwise permit the Govern
ment to receive it as gift.
Before the final recess, the COM
mission is expected to make up
it's mind what course to pursue
in connection with the highly
controversial Marshall Heights
Redevelopment project. Hilyard
R. Robinson, one of the members
today will submit the report OF
the co-ordinating committee on
housing and redevelopment. This
report represents a study of vari-
GUS problems involved in the gen.
eral redevelopment program for
the District.
An al-day session on Marshall
Heights is scheduled for tomor-
row.
Number of Alternatives.
i Briefly, the planning commits
sion was to decide:
1. Whether another attemp,
should be made to get funds from
Congress to carry out the pro.
posed So million plan.
2. Whether it would be more
advantageous to work out some
variation of the existing plan.
3. Whether it would be better
for all concerned to drop the
Marshall Heights plan entirely
and focus attention on some othel

was the girl-a pretty, black

trouble.
She was wholly responsible for
the fact that the Gotland. here
