Negotiations on Land
For rMemoriaI Parkway
To Begin This Week

Negotiation for acquisition OF
more than 200 acres of land ad-
jacent' to the Potomac River in
Arlington for eventual extension
of the George Washington Memo
rial parkway, will begin this week
9 Russell Macdonald. land fpur-
chasing officer for the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission. said he is awaiting for
NAL notification that the Arling-
ton County Board has approved
appraisal prices on the property.
The County Board approved an
appraisal of $380,000 Saturday
and is expected to notify the COM
mission today. The figure was
set jointly by Mr.. Macdonald and
C. L. Kinnier, Arlington County
planning engineer.
Extension of the parkway from
Spout Run, near Cherrydale, to
the Fairfax County line just above
Chain Bridge, will follow the land
acquisition which is expected to
require from six to IL months.
The commission has authority to
purchase land only at the ap-
praisal price. 1t must acquire by
condemnation if the property
owner refuses to accept the ap-
praisal figure.
y The highway now runs along
the Potomac from Mount Vernon
to Spout Run, small creek
emptying into the Potomac. When
the parkway is completed, it will
extend to Great Falls.
Mr.. Kinnier said today that
Congress has not approved funds
for the new road construction.
He said about SO or 81 million
of road building funds originally
allotted to the commission have
been cut out of the budget now
being considered. Acquisition of
the land will not be affected by
the budget action, however.

High School Delayed.
Falls Church May Use.
Old Jefferson Building.

Falls Church High School STU
dents probably will attend the old
jefferson School this fall because
q new high school now under con-
struction will not be completed
by September, Mrs. Helen Regan,
school board chairman, said today.
Mrs. Regan said that special
committee of the board is making
a study to determine what other
space will be needed to accommo-
date approximately 400 high school
students who are expected to en-
roll.
A group of citizens, in a petition
sent to the mayor and council
last Monday, had asked series Of
questions, including the query
about possible use of Jefferson for
high school purposes. The council
unanimously agreed that the
school board should be requested
to answer the questions before a
final budget hearing which was
held Saturday night.
Official Request Lacking.
Mrs. Regan said the questions
were not answered because the
School Board had not been Off
cially requested to do SO, At the
budget hearing City Attorney La
Rue Van Meter contended that
the School Board is not required
to answer Council questions on
school policy.
At a School Board meeting to-
night the petition is expected to
be considered, but Mrs. Regan
said she does not expect official
action.
Because the queries had not
been answered when the budget
was being considered, three mem
bers of the city council protested
that school funds should be with
held.
The $1.1 million budget was
approved, however, along with a
real estate tax rate of $2.75 per
$100 of property valuation. The
personal property tax rate will
be $3.50.
The council stopped the clock
at midnight as discussion con-
tinued in order that the budget
would be adopted within the legal
deadline.
The 1950-51 tax rate was $4.55
for both real estate and personal
property. Tax bills will not be
reduced by adoption of the new
rates, however, because re-
assessment program last year in

proximately $50 per cent.
