I unneI for Capitol Heating

Excavation has started on a
mile long walk through" steam
tunnel from the Capitol Power
Plant to the Senate Office Build
ing as part of q $16.4 million re-
Mobilization Of the heating and
electrical services to congressional
buildings.
The new tunnel, on which work
has begun at the power plant at
Virginia and New Jersey avenues
Sc. is considered necessary be-
cause of the threat of a break
down in the 43-year-old tunnel
now being used.
Part Of the old underground
passageway to be replaced is on
earth-fill over the old railroad
tunnel, David Lynn, architect Of
the Capitol. explained. He warned
its condition has brought immi-
nent danger of failure of existing
steam lines.
Such a failure, he declared,
would result in a prolonged dis
ruption of service to Congress,
the Supreme Court, Library of
Congress. the Government Print
ing Office and the Washington
City Post Of11ce. Furthermore. he
pointed out, it would endanger
the lives of maintenance crews
working in the tunnel at the time
of failure.
The route of the new tunnel
will run from the power plant
along North Carolina avenue to
Second street Sc, north on Sec
ond street to B street NE, then
west on B street to First street
and north for half a block. There
it will tie into the present Senate
Office Building and eventually
into the adjacent new Senate
Office Building.-if it is ever built.
Also the new underground pas
sageway will hook onto the
present tunnel carrying steam to
the post office and GPO.
The new tunnel will be 101a
by liz feet inside and win be
about 5,40O feet long. It win carry
duplicate steam lines. a 6-inch
line for return of condensed
steam and duplicate 30-inch pipes
to carry chilled water for use in
air conditioning systems on
Capitol Hill.
Construction of the project will
result in q somewhat spectacular
digging Of the ditch, which will
have an average depth below the
street level Of about 80 feet.
The tunnel job is being done by
the Charles II. Tompkins Co.,
under q contract Of $4.583. .783.

Building for installation Of new

D. {. Builders Urge
End Of Limit on Floors
Per Buildings Here

Washington builders. business
men and architects today came
out solidly and strongly for ending
the Districts present restrictions
against the number Of stories per
building.
The builders stated their collec-
tive views today before the District
Zoning Commission, which is
studying whether to eliminate all
reference to the number Of stories
from present zoning regulations
without changing restrictions as to
building heights or the existing
ceiling height limit of 8 feet per
floor.
The commission recessed at noon
after hearing most Of the pro-
ponents, and was to get to the op-
position views this afternoon.
Charles j. Bauer, executive Sec
retary of the Building Owners and
Managers Associations and a mem
Der of the District Commissioners
Building Code Advisory Commit
tee which also favors the change,
led the arguments for the pro-
ponentS.
Mr.. Bauer viewed with alarm
the population trend in the past
10 years away from the central
section of the city to outlying
areas. The proposed change in
regulations. Mr.. Bauer went on,
would encourage more new con-
struction by private enterprise in
the critical area. which would in
turn be a factor in stemming the
exodus of business and population.
Other spokesmen declared such.
q change would allow multiple
story garages and accommodate
many more parked cars. thus re-
lieving downtown traffic conges-
tion.

Assistant Corporation Counsel
Milton Norman told District
Court today in asking dismissal
of an anti-segregation suit
brought by the parents of a col
ored school girl.

who asks court order to force
school authorities to admit his

the Buchanan School, for whites,
lat Thirteenth and E streets Sc.
The girl, the suit contends, goes
to the Webb School at Fifteenth
and Rosedale streets NE, and has
to travel a little over a mile to get
there while the Buchanan and
other white schools are closer. In
addition, the suit contends, the
Webb School does not provide
facilities equal to those Of the
white schools.
Mr.. Norman cited figures cover
ing schools in the sections west
of the Anacostia River and south
