Dodge Attends
Budget Par|ey;
Silent on Policy
Eisenhower's Aide
Has No Suggestions
About Estimates
BY Joseph A. Fox

Joseph M. Dodge. President
elect EiSenhower's fiscal represen-
tative, today began his conferences
with Budget Bureau officials with
the assertion that he would make
mo suggestions regarding next
years budget. He said he would
neither concur nor nonconcur"
Jon any of the items included in
preliminary figures.
Mr.. Dodge. president Of the De-
troit Bank and former president OF
the American Bankers Association
said he did not intend to see Presi-
dent Truman. He told questioners
he did not know how long his task
here would require.
Mr.. Dodge meticuously refrained
from any discussion OF policy. He
would not talk about prospective
|cutS in spending.
MY objective" he said. lis to
find our for myself and Gen.
Eisenhower the facts and factors
connected with the preparation Of
the budget so he may have some
basis for determining his own
policy"
No Comment on Initiation.
A reporter who tried to draw
Mr.. Dodge out asked if he thought
Government spending was infla-
tionary.
Il have no comment he re-
sponded.
Such charges have been made"
the reporter pressed.
I'm not politician Mr..
Dodge tartly answered.
Mr.. Dodge stood in the Office of
Budget Director Frederic j. Law
ton to talk to reporters after a
long siege with photographers.
AS the questioning started, the
Detroiter interrupted to say he
would like to repeat statement
he made to reporters at Union
Station this morning when he ar
rived from Detroit.
He said:
I'm sorry if I disappoint you
but am not here to make news.
but to do task.
1T is usually unwise to talk
about a job before you start to
work. That is particularly true
in this instance and it is probably
true after I start to work at it.
II do not intend to either concur
or non-concur in any proposals
affecting the budget now in prepa-
ration and the absence of either
concurrence or n-concurrence
shall not be construed as either
one"
Most of Material in Hand.
When President Truman sug-
lgeSted to Gen. Eisenhower that he
send a representative here to 60

ending June 80, 1854, he explained

Stor Stoff Correspondent

AUGUSTA. Ga, Nov. Ia
President-elect Eisenhower today
invited Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of
New York to meet with him here
Friday to discuss his Korean trip
and other matters.
James C. Hagerty. the generals
press secretary, declined to say
what the other matters were, but
observers here believe they are
bound to include the makeup of
the Eisenhower cabinet.
Meanwhile, it developed that q
veil of secrecy probably will be
thrown around Gen. Eisenhower's
trip to Korea for security reasons.
No announcement to this effect
has been made, but since the
President-elect will be going into
a theater of war. it is taken for
granted here that the usual mill
tary precautions will be followed
to avoid giving the enemy any
time e-table on his movements.
Mr.. Hagerty said last night he
may have some information on the
Korean trip before the end of the
week. But, in view of the anti
cipated security requirements, it
obviously is not likely to cover
any detailed arrangements.
ReuortS of Post Persist.
Gov. Dewey has said that he
wants to finish out his two years
as governor, but reports persist
that he will b eoffered some i'm
portant post in the Eisenhower
government. possibly Secretary of
State.
Gen. Eisenhower carried New
York by 850,000 votes and Gov.
Dewey has been given a large
share of credit for that heavy
majority.
The New York Governor will be
on his way to a Miami vacation
Friday. The general asked him
to stop off. and he is due to arrive
about noon.
The PreSident-elect has no other
appointments for the remainder
Of the week, but is expected to see
a number of congressional lead
ers and other leading Republicans
in New York next week, after his
meeting with President Truman

Sun Shining Again.
The sun was shining here today
after two days of rain and Gen.
Eisenhower planned to play golf
this afternoon with Byron Nelson,
former National Open champion.
AS to the generals conferences
in New York next week, associates,
who asked not to be named, said
the conferees may include Sena-

Artificial Kidney
Saves Many Lives
'Of Korea Wounded
BY the Associoted Press

WITH THE 9th ARMY, Korea,
Nov. 12.-The artificial kidney, a
revolutionary medical device long
in development, has saved the lives
of many wounded Allied troops,
the 9th Army surgeon, Brig. Gen.

Medical authorities say the ap-
paratus, which does the work of
the human kidneys when wounds
or illness prevent those organs
from functioning properly, pre-
vents the spread of deadly uremic
poisoning.
Uremic poisoning results from
the kidneys failure to discharge

Skyline Drive Reopened,
But Fire Threat Remains
BY the Assoeio,ed Press

RICHMOND, Nov. 12.-Skyline
Drive, closed last week. because of
forest fire danger, was reopened to
traffic today.
But Dan Tobin. assistant re-
gional director for the National
Park Service, said camp and pic
mic grounds along Skyline Drive
in Shenandoah National Park will
remain closed.
The recent one-half-inch rain
did not sufficiently dampen the

his comment from the issues of

faced it by saying he was glad the

would add 3,45O miles of new OF
rebuilt roads to the State highway
system.
Washington area residents, who
have been fighting the traffic
laden roads of Maryland for
years, will benefit by number
of the major projects visualized.
Raise Gas and Auto Fees.
To finance this program, the
Roads Commission will ask the
Maryland General Assembly to:
l. Give the Roads Commission
power to impose tolls on roads
already constructive or on roads
contemplated.
2. Increase the gasoline tax by
l cent a gallon, effective June /
1853.
8. Increase the motor vehicle
registration fees substantially, ef-
fective with the license year be-
ginning 1854.
4. Authorize additional State
highway construction bonds total
ing $3.50 million.
The annual registration fee fol-
light cars would be increased from
SIS TO $40 and for heavy cars
from $23 to $50.
Projects Will Aid District.
Projects which will benefit
Washington area residents directly
include:
A circumferential route around
the city-a dual highway-which
is tied in with the eventual con-
struction of new bridges across
the Potomac River in the Cabin
John area and at Alexandria. The
bridges. however, are not in the
Maryland program.
A dual highway on Edmonston
road from Defense highway tc
Berwyn Heights.
A dual highway on Central ave-
nue. from the District line to U. s

missioners with specific slum-
clearance program for one 76-acre
parcel of Southwest territory.
NCPC staff members drew up
proposals after months of study
ing recommendations by two sep
arate groups of architects and
analyses by the Commissions plan
ming consultant, Harland Bartho-
lomew and Associates.
The Commissioners are called
upon to approve the specific plan,
which applies to an area bounded
by the Pennsylvania Railroad
tracks and South Capitol, Fourth
and I streets. At the same time,
the city heads may indorse in
principle the overall Southwest
blueprint.
A public hearing on December
II already has been called by
Commissioner F. Joseph Donohue
to air the proposals for the TO-
acre project, the first to be under
taken under the Land Redevelop-
ment Act of 1916, since the Mar
shall Heights venture fell through
for want of support.
Feasible, Says Agency.
At the moment, planners seem
in no great disagreement over the
outline of the first undertaking,
designated as Project Area B.
The District Redevelopment Land
Agency. which is charged with
handling the rehabilitation once
the program leaves planning
stages, today described the NCPC
plan as feasible and capable of
being effectively carried out.
In a note to the Commissioners,
RIA Chairman Mark Lansburgh
added that the Federal Housing
and Home Finance Agency also
approves the plan. The FHHFA
will foot tWo-thirds of the $8.3
million cost of Project B in the
for moi grants.
In addition to taking a stand
on the overall and the limited
redevelopment plan, the Commits
sioners must decide whether they
are satisfied that dwellings are
available tor relocating the occu-
pants of nearly 1,100 substandard
dwelling units in the project area
which are scheduled for razing.
RIA Gives Assurance.
RIA gave this assurance in a
letter to the Commissioners last
month. The land agency has cal
culated that in the next two years
2.100 housing units for low-income
families will either be vacant OF
newly built in other sections of the
city. The only apparent hitch
either in the public or private
housing fields is shortage OF
dwellings with three or more bed
rooms.
