TO New Pike
Links to Be Built
At Northwest Edge
Of Washington
BY the Assoeiaied Press

BALTIMORE. Oct. 1s.-The
State Roads Commission plans to
build about Is miles of new roads
at the northwest edge of Wash
ington to handle traffic to and
from the new Washington Ma
tional pike.
One of the main connections
will be with Macarthur boulevard
There will be several others in the
area from Macarthur boulevard
to East-West highway.
The pike, a divided four-lane
Iexpressway. is under construction
between Washington and Freder-
ick. 1t will take the place of pres
ent U. S. Route $40
The roads commission has had
under consideration for months

would take through Montgomery
County to connect with the Wash
ington street system.
Plan Announced.
In announcing yesterday it had
adopted a plan developed by its
engineers. the commission said:
1.-THE plan will carry traffic
|southeastward from the Brink
area and will distribute it, by
means of new connecting roads
over the fan-shaped network OF
traffic arteries already serving the
suburban area northwest of Wash
|ington, from Macarthur boulevard
to the East-West highway.
considerable improvement OF
some of these existing highways,
to permit them to carry an in
creased traffic burden. is included
in the plan.
"The whole plan will require
construction of about 25 miles of
new highway and extensive i'm
provement Of about 10 miles of
existing road. Approximately 18
months will be required to pre-
pare plans and surveys for the
complete project.
"Rights-of-way will be acquired
as rapidly as possible after COM
pletion of the plans"
The commission did not esti-
mate how much the project will
cost.
The first 7-mile section Of the
new expressway. in Frederick
County from Urbana to just below
Frederick, is about completed.
Construction also is we'll along on
another stretch from Urbana
south to Hyattstown, in Mont
gomery County. about S miles. The

He said the parents have prom

Pay Raise for )
GroupsDue
ByAdjournInent
Nicely Reports 1919
Bill for Firemen,
Police, Teachers

Ten per cent pay raises for Dis
trict police, firemen and teachers,
retroactive to July l. are expected
to be approved by Congress before
adjournment.
These three groups were cut out
of legislation for Government
classified workers by House-Senate
conferees yesterday. But Chair
man Neely of the Senate District
Committee quickly reported to the
Senate legislation to give the three
city groups the same 10 per cent
increase granted Federal and Dis
trict classified employees.
The Nicely bill took the form of
an amendment to House-passed
measure. which would have pro-
vided a fiat $400 pay raise for the
three groups. This figure was the
same as the House bill for Fed
eral classified workers at the time
both passed the House some time
ago.
On Senate Calendar.
The amended House bill. orig
inally introduced by Chairman
Mcmillan of the House District
Committee, now is on the Senate
calendar and will be called up for
action Immediately after the Sen
ate acts on the conference report
giving Federal classified workers
the 10 per cent raise.
Both the Mcmillan Nicely meas
ure and the Federal classified bill
provide that the pay raises shall
not be less than $500 nor more
than $500.
With Congress rushing towards
adjournment this week end, it was
believed possible that all the pay
raise legislation now pending, for
postal workers, classified workers,
and the police. firemen and teach
ers here will clear Congress before
it quits.
The Senate District Committee
amendment to the Mcmillan bill
also would authorize pay increases
for per diem workers in the
District Government, under a
formula somewhat different from
the 10 per cent proviso.
Action Pleases Davis.
Representative Davis, Democrat,
of Georgia, who had objected to
handling increases for District
police, f1remen and teachers in the
Federal classified bill. said he was
pleased over the Senate District
Committees action.
Chairman Mcmillan was said to
be ready to call up the measure
for action sometime before the
House adjourns.
The Neely report to the Senate
on the measure estimates it will
cost the District $50 annually, in
Guiding $1,015.000 for police,
$450.000 for firemen, SIS for
teachers, and $685. for perl
diem workers.
Furthermore. the Nicely amend
ment contains a provision to allow
similar 10 per cent raises to police,
firemen and teachers in the
Panama Canal Zone, since their
pay is tied to the same levels as
these groups in the District.

Liquor Board Probes
Duplicate Financing
In County Licenses

A two-pronged checkup of all
Prince Georges County alcoholic
beverage licenses is underway to
determine the extent to which
permit holders are financially in
terested and whether theys have
investments in more than one
such business each.
The County Liquor Board Or
dered the investigation in closed
session, which followed its month
|ly meeting yesterday in Upper
Marlboro.
Board Counsel Ernest A. Love-
less said the probe grew out Of
court cases in Prince Georges and
Charles Counties in which liquor
licenses have been revoked or
surrendered because Of inaccurate
statements on application blanks.
Maryland law requires that ap-
Iplicants for alcoholic beverage
licenses certify under oath that
they are the sole parties having
pecuniary interest in the places
where the permits are used.
3 Transfers Approved.
One application for a transfer
was withdrawn. as a result of
strong opposition from civic
groups of the Takoma Park area.
Three transfers were approved,
one conditionally.
Joseph P. Breen, who had asked
permission to move his off-sale
license from 1885 Naylor road,
Silver Hill, to 6719 New Hampshire
avenue. withdrew his request
when he was confronted by more
than a score of protesting citizens.
Mr.. Breen told the board he did
not wish to incu the wrath of
the delegation or other community
residents and said he would try to
find another location.
The civic group spokesmen then
asked the board to bar liquor
establishments from locating
closer than 600 yards from a
church or a school. The board
has authority to take such action,
if definite standards" are adopted.
The request was taken under ad-
visement by the board, which
issued an invitation to citizens
throughout the county to voice
their views on the subject.
Conditional Approval.
Conditionally approved was
transfer of a Glass A off sale
license issued to Lawrence A.
Palermo from 3703 Bladensburg
road, Colmar Manor, to Iverson
street and Twenty-third avenue.
Hillcrest Heights.
The. board said it had learned
the license was to be assigned to
Henry w. Slice. ST., and ruled this
could not be done legally in one
step. It conditioned it's approval
on the provision that an applica-
ton for assignment of the busi-
ness to Mr.. Slice be filed with the
board within 10 days and that the
assignment be approved. If it is
disapproved. the board ordered,
the transfer will be Cancelled and
the license continued at its pres
ent location.
One of two approved transfers
was OF an off-sale license from
Vivial H. Mackall to William F.
Cox and Thomas E. Burke for use
at 802 Sixty-first avenue. Fair
mount Heights.
The other was the transfer of
an on-sale license at Mons Snack
Bar, 5100 Rhode Island avenue,
Hyattsville, from John S. Anas-
taSi to John C.. Deck ir.

Gains Among Leaders

Losses Held 10 Cents

progress was made today in al

Oils, chemicals, rubbers and

Gains among leading issues ex-

confined generally to less than a

Amerada Petroleum, which
brought in the initial we'll in the
famed Williston basin in Mon

upward under the stimulation not
only OF high sales and earnings
but also in many cases because
they fall into the category of
securities that Wall Street be-
lieves is due for splitting up into
smaller units.
Chemicals also came into the

a sensational advance, tried to get
ahead again today but fell back
around midday by as much as So a
share.
Automobiles generally were un-

production cutbacks and from
slow-downs and stoppages during
labor disputes. General Motors last
