Virginia Ponders
Problem, Of Giving
Medal to Marshall
ey The Asseeiafsd Press

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. Is
The Commonwealth of Virginia is
having tough time adding one
more distinction to Gen. Mar
shall's long list. y
Just when it looked as if Gen.
Marshall would be available to re-
ceive the Virginia Distinguished
Service Medal with proper cere-
mony, he left retirement in Lees
burg to become Secretary Of De-
fenSe.
In May, 194S,- a special board
decided that Gen. Marshall was
entitled to the medal as q gen.
eral above the rank of brigade
commander who had commanded
Virginia troops in time of war.
The general was invited twice
to come and get his medal, but
he was busy being special envoy
to China and Secretary Of State.
After that he spent some time in
the hospital.
The presentation event was
tentatively scheduled to take place
in the spring with a full-dress pa
rade Of cadets at Virginia Military
Institute, the generals alma
mater. with Virginia's Governor
making the presentation.
Adjt. Gen. s. Gardner Waller is
still hoping Gen. Marshall will be
able to make it. u
we don't want to send it up
there" he said yesterday.

"Our membership, consisting of
over 1.000 people. uses the bridge
daily and feels that the District

.uted to this congestion and there
by to some extent has wiped out
the gains which resulted from
opening the new span."
About the stop light. the letter
added:
I'VE cannot see that it serves
any useful purpose"
Among others who had their
doubts was Police Capt. Irwin H.
limbaugh of No. 4 Precinct, who
commands the policemen assigned
to augment the lights at rush
hours.
Suggestion Vetoed.
"It seems a pity that so few cars
should hold up all the rest" he
said. He suggested opening up
the Government-owned extension
of D street to carry the would-be
left-turners over to Fifteenth. and
dropping the light - an idea
promptly rejected as impractical
when it was reported to Mr.. Braun.
The Agriculture Department,
which started it all, so far is main

Adams said his Office believes the
District will make the proper de-
cision after it has chance for an

again-several times.
Last week, as part Of an in
tended remedy, the District in
stalled new trafiic controls at the
Fourteenth and D intersection,
where 1900 cars leave the new Sc
million bridge from Virginia dur
ing the peak hour every morning
The move backflred. Agriculture

now are trying to have the new
lights removed as q nuisance. But
SO far, District traffic officials are
refusing to admit any mistake.

For the last three years, accord
ing to Terry c. McAdams, assist
ant director Of the departments

f1c has been so heavy on c street
that employees who park in the

had trouble getting in and out.
The department made several
specific suggestions to the Dis

and that pedestrian signals be in
stalled at the Fourteenth street

Mainly, however. 1t urged q sur
vey of the general situation and
action to clear it up.
Agriculture personnel did not
make the only complaints. The
Bureau of Engraving and Print
ing wanted 1t made possible for
pedestrians to cross at D street,
according 10 Mr.. Braun-some-
thing they could hardly do
against the uncontrolled now Of
traffic.
Making c street one way west
bound would have necessitated
changing eastbound buses to an
other route-probably D street.
But this was rejected because II
would have meant q longer walk
for passengers transferring to
streetcars or going to Agriculture,
according to Mr.. Braun.
Other Considerations.
The traffic department finally
decided it could ease c street
congestion by banning left turns
for southbound traffic from Four
,teenth street. But, Mr.. Braun
explains, this meant the left turn
had TO be at d street, and against
a flow of 1900 cars an hour 1t

A total of about 1900 cars a
day now make this left turn. the
traffic ofieial says-about ESQ OF
them during the peak morning
rush hour G:30 to $500. Only
alternative to the turn would be
to send them over the bridge to
Virginia, unless they were willing
to turn off at independence ave-
nue., which Mr.. Braun considers
unlikely.
This left turn is their chief
reason for a stop light at D street,
say the officials. These are their
others:
Accidents. Mr.. Braun says
there have been nine accidents at
the d street intersection 20 far
this year, resulting in four In

A quick end to the Korean war
with victory for our side was pre-
dicted last night by Chairman

Services Committee. Furthermore,
he added, that country must be
promptly returned to its people.
Maryland's senior Senator, who

Armory.
1t was one of two rallies in

County conclave at Laurel. said to
be the first held in that town
by Democrats In more than 20
years. An estimated 800 voters
turned out.
Senator Tydings, now serving
his fourth term. paid high tribute
to Gen. George c. Marshall who
this week was named by Presi-
dent Truman to succeed Louis
johnson as Secretary of Defense.
Urges Strong National Defense.
Reiterating his stand for a
strong national defense the Sen
ator said, 1T is better to live for
while in a sort, Of armed camp
than to exist later as slaves under
an alien power"
The Marshall Plan for Euro
pean aid. the North Atlantic Sc
curity Pact and the armed as
sistance program were cited as
insurance policies" for demo-
cratic nations. Without them,
Russian aggression certainly
would have extended to Greece
and Italy and probably even
further in western Europe at
great risk to the United States, he
said. 8
Also speaking at the Silver
Spring rally were Joseph B.
Simpson, candidate for State
Senator; Einar B. Christensen,
and Mrs. Margaret Schweinhaut,
candidates for the Maryland
