reached.
Here are details of the two
plans:
Canal road will be widened from
Key Bridge to Foxhall road. It
will continue to take traffic to and
from M street.
At its west end. the elevated will
have three lanes. Midway one o1
them will cut across over the
canal to carry eastbound cars tt
M. The other two lanes will con-
meet with the freeway.
WeStbound on M Street.
Westbound through-traf1ic will
use M street. Eastbound will use
the elevated.
The structure would be unusual
single-stem piers, supporting the
roadway in cantilever fashion
This would leave the canal ano
its tow-path undisturbed.
Eventually, Canal roau will be
improved onward up the Potomac
becoming the George Washington
Memorial Parkway at Great Falls
It will connect with the new Ma
tional Pike (Route 240) from
Frederick.
Ramps will cross from the ele-
|vated to the Arizona parkway
Foxhall road also will connect.

The parkway will be two two
lane roadways, with q broad land

Arlington Democrats
Ask Representation
In New Appointments

The Arlington Democratic Coun-
Gil has called on the county board
to give representation to mi
nority parties" in choosing men,
bers of advisory councils and COM
missions.
Recent actions of the board, the
council said in a resolution ap-
proved Wednesday night, have
demonstrated a strong tendency
toward non-partisan packing to
the exclusion Of minority men,
|bership."
Three Of the five board mem
bers are non-partisans. There
lis one Democrat on the board and
one Republican.
The Democrat, Alfred e. Fris-
bic, and the Republican, Robert
A. Peck, both remarked at the
board meeting Saturday after
election of six new Planning Com
mission members that all the ap-
pointees were those nominated by
non-partisans.
The council statements said
that, integrity, ability. experience
and civic interest are not con-
fined to any one political group"
The group asked the board 'in
the furtherance of fundamental
Americanisp. in the light of sound
political principle, and In the in
|terest of representative govern
|ment, in the naming Of advisory
councils and committees to give
representation to minorities at
least in the same proportion that
they are represented on the county
board"
The council condemned the
policy Of political back scratch

field. They said, however, such
a council would serve chiefly to put
the present machinery for settling
of conflicts on a sturdier basis
and, perhaps, tend to broaden the
coverage.
Machinery now exists to allow
consultation on coming conflicts
between the District and the adj
jacent Maryland suburban areas
in Montgomery and Prince Georges
Counties, officials explained.
Owing to the nature of coming,
disputes in this field are unlikely,
except along land boundaries.
Thus, there is less chance for
such conflicts to arise between
District and Virginia suburban
Jurisdictions because the Potomac
River serves as the boundary.
25-MiIe Border.
But the District has q 25-mile
land boundary adjoining Prince
Georges and Montgomery Coun-
ties. II is along this line that
occasional coming conflicts have
arisen in the past and can be
expected in the future.
Right now, the District Zoning
Commission is faced with d request
from a developer to zone com
mercialn q tract Of land at the
boundary between Prince Georges
County and the District at Riggs
road. Before the hearing is held

Limited Power.
It takes the form Of an informal
staff-level "co-ordinating commit
tee." which has power Of recon-
mendation only. In most cases,
however. recommendations have
been followed by the responsible
county officials and the District
government. The COMMITTEES is
headed by John Nolen, jr., director
of planning for the National Capt.

sion; Robert o. Clouser, executive
officer Of the District Zoning Com
mission, and William c. Burrage,
planning engineer Of the Mont
gomery County regional Office Of
the commission.
The kind Of questions that oc-
casionally arise have TO do pri-
marily with designation Of land
at the boundary line as suitable
for commercial or apartment de-
velopment instead Of for single

Maryland May
Join Virginia
In Oyster Law
Legislation Limit
Seen as Possible
Stumbling Block
: by J. I. WlGHueI
Z, sior s.off Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 15.-Mary-
land apparently is ready to agree
with Virginia on plan for settle
Iment of the 167-year-old Potomac
River oyster feud.
But a legal question threatens
Ito block the current move to end
the politics-ridden controversy.
A bill identical with legislation
Just approved by both houses of
the Virginia Assembly is ready for
introduction here today.
It will be sponsored by Senator
James B. Monroe, Republican, of
Charles County. who four years
ago initiated a series Of bi-State
conferences out Of which came
the present plan.
The measure, which would per-
NIT hand-Scraping under the
supervision of a six-member BIZ
State commission. has the backing
of the Maryland Tidewater Fish
cries Commission. Heretofore, the
commission has opposed removal
of oysters from the Potomac by
any method other than hand
longing.
McKeldin Backs Principle.
Gov. McKeldin, it was learned,
has Endorsed the plan in prin-
ciple but has not committed him
self on the Monroe bill.
Senator Paul j. Bailey, Repub-
lican, Of st. Marys County said
yesterday he favors the proposal
but doubts whether it can legally
be considered at the current 30
day session. A constitutional
amendment provides that only
matters concerning the State
budget. emergencies and the gen.
eral welfare can be acted on at
short meetings.
The Virginia bill would create
a Potomac River oyster commits
sion made up of the three mem
bers of the Maryland Tidewater
Fisheries Commission and three
OF the five members Of the Vir-
ginia Commission Of Fisheries.
The commission would have full
jurisdiction over oystering in the
Potomac.
Power-dredging and the use of
patent tongs, both legal under
present Virginia statutes, lacking
Maryland concurrence, would be
barred. Hand longing, legal in
both States. would remain so.
Would Select Selling Points.
Under a new clause, the COM
would have authority to
designate a minimum of five
points where oysters could be
bought and sold. Another change
would provide that violators of any
commission rule be tried in the
State OF the arresting officer.
Conservation trials now may be
held in either State.
The bill would impose a tax of
from 10 to 20 cents q bushel on
all oysters taken from the river
and would give the commission
authority to shell or reseed any
oyster ground.
Divers" heavy metal plates
intended to make landscapes
sink in deep water, would be per-
mitted. The scrapes could be no
more than 80 inches wide.

Together. they would create a
rapid bypass to downtown for mo-
toristS now using Massachusetts,

road program. They would cost

The elevated idea is new. It
would parallel Canal road, running
a half mile on the old Chesapeake
and Ohio Canals south bank.
Canal road would retain west
bound traffic. The elevated would
be one-way eastbound.
60 Years ON Paper.
The connecting parkway, how
ever. is far from a new idea. As
Arizona avenue. it has existed on
paper for almost 60 years.
It would run about 8 miles from
the west end of the elevated, north
