Insurance Renewal Plan
To Mean Biu VA SAVINGS

Veterans will be spared paper
work and the Veterans Admin
istration will save 100000 a
year through a new procedure
for the renewal of CT term in
Surance.
VA has announced it will
automatically renew policies for
another f1ve-year period if old
policies are in force at the end
of the term period, with premi-
ums paid.
The procedure is made posi-
BILE under a new law which went
into effect Thursday. It will
benefit about four million vet
Grams with term insurance, ap-
proximately 100000 of them next
year when that number of World
War I and World War II term
policies are expected to be re-
newed automatically.
Once the automatic renewal is
effected, the veteran will have
a new 5-year term policy on
which he must pay the increased
premiums. In the past, if he
failed to apply for renewal be-
fore the term expired he lost his
right to Government life in
surance even though he had paid
the final premium on his old
policy.

SIT Million Cost Seen
For Baltimore Tunnel
By the Assoeioted Prsss

BALTIMORE, July 25.-A SIT
million cost estimate was made
yesterday on the proposed tun-
mel under Baltimore's harbor.
William F. Childs. jr., chief
engineer Of the Maryland Roads
Commission, cautioned that this
was mot a firm figure"
Consulting engineers have
only just begun to determine
exactly where the expressway ap-
proaches to the tunnel should
go, so there is no way now to
estimate how much will have to
be paid for the rights of way.
The SIT million figure Mr..
Ci1ilds gave is the first estimate
the roads commission has made
since it decided 10 days ago on
the approximate location of the
tunnel and the approach ex-
preSsways.
The tunnel itself is expected
to cost around $46 million, with
the other $31 million going into
the approaches.

Arlington Praised
For Safety Record

Arlington's traffic safety rec
ord has been cited by a Wash
ington judge as "an inspiring
example of an effective program. !"
Some rs members of the Ar
lington Bar Association, meeting
yesterday for lunch at the Wash
ington Golf and Country Club,
were told by Municipal Court
Judge George D. Nelson that
the county'S courts and police
have reduced highway deaths in
Arlington by SO per cent in two
years. ,., ~..ss-x~
Despite improved safety rec
ords, Judge Nelson said, the
"senSeless slaughter" on Virginia
highways is still a major problem.
A community's traffic court,
the judge said, is visited by q
great number of people.
Respect for the democratic
processes of justice" he said, sis
determined by the impressions
the people have of the courts
fairness, consistency and cour-
tesy. The court should educate
while it adjudicates."
Sporadic drives occasioned by
a series Of accidents are of little
USE" he added.
He said that traffic court judges
should have wide discretion but
that the "basic patterns of traf-
fic penalties should be consistent
and certain"
Other guests at the bar lunch
con included Judge Nelson's wife
and DR.. Juan Bautista de LaValle,
Peruvian Ambassador to the Or
ganization of American States.

Day Nurseries Face
Tighter Regulations
In Prince Georges

Prince Georges County plans
to tighten regulations governing
day nurseries.
A public hearing will be held
August 4 on proposed amend
mentS to an ordinance governing
such establishments. The hear
ing has been set for II am. at
Upper Marlboro.
Commissioner Edward j.
Waters suggested the changes
yesterday at the boards meet
ing in the county seat. His
motion to advertise the hearing
was adopted without debate.
The amendments, if approved,
will require that persons apply
ing for permission to operate
day nurseries must be investi-
gated by the county police and
welfare board.
The will also be required to
furnish at least three written
character reference from resi-
dents in the immediate vicinity
of the proposed nursery and must
have lived in the county for one
year.
The proposed changes stem
from a case in which a Maryland
Park nursery home operator was
held for grand jury action on
a manSlaughter charge.
In other business yesterday the
commissioners reappointed three
parole and probation officers for
two-year terms. They are Earl w.
Loveless. William r. Pumphrey

Senate Votes Funds
For Parkway, Rejects
Stream va|Ieyltem

The Senate last night approved
the House Senate conference
agreement appropriating 100000
to extend a parkway in nearby
Virginia, but to deny $265,000
for stream valley park purchase
in nearby Maryland.
Action was taken as the Sem
ate sent back to conference the
first independent offices appro-
priation bill, with funds for
several executive agencies.
AS a consequence, when the
confereeS meet next week to
reconcile several differences be-
tween House and Senate versions
of the money bill, the item on
nearby parkway acquisition by
the National Capital Planning
Commission will not be changed.
Marylanders have been sadly
disappointed that Congress re-
fused funds for purchase of park
sites in areas on which real
estate developments threaten to
encroach.
The, Virginia funds go toward
extending George Washington
Memorial Parkway.
Among the most controversial
items to be considered by the
conferees will be those relating
to safety controls over motor
transport by the Interstate Com
merce Commission field Offices
and public housing.
The Senate sent the bill back
to the same conferees after a
long debate.

New Building
CodeAdopted
By Arlington
Becomes Effective
October !, Replaces
''ObsoIete' Rules

The Arlington County Board
today adopted a standard build
ing code for the county. It is
designed to permit savings in
construction costs and allow
greater f1exibility of design"
James M. McHugh, Arlington.
architect who headed the county
boards Advisory Committee on
the code, said its adoption rep.
resents the elimination of more
than two years of intensive effort
on the part of the committee and
county officials"
The new code, he said, was
developed by the Building OFF,
cials' Conference of America.
1t establishes performance" re-
quirements rather than rules
specifying certain materials for
certain purposes.
Former Code Called Obsolete.
The code, in effect, sets UP
goals for builders and permits
the use of materials to reach
the goals, Mr.. McHugh said.
The BOCA code was recon-
mended by County Manager
A. T. Lundberg. The Advisory
Committee to study it was estab-
lished in March, 1851.
Critics of Arlington's old build
ing code declared it was obsolete
and that insufficient copies of
1T were available to builders.
The new code, which will be-
come effective October /, pro-
vides for fire limits, regulations
governing construction, altera-
tions, equipment or removal of
buildings.
Establishes 5-Man Board.
The ordinance also establishes
a flve-man, non-Salaried, ad-
visory board to handle appeals
and amendments.
Mr.. McHugh said Arlington
adoption of the BOCA code re-
fleets the effort of Metropolitan
Area communities to standardize
building codes. Prince Georges
and Montgomery Counties have
adopted it, but it is still under
consideration in the District,
Alexandria and Fairfax County.

Bandit Gets S515
Al Alexandria Office

A gunman held up the man
ager and an employe of the Lib
erty Loan Co., 106 North Colum-
bus street, Alexandria, yesterday
and escaped with $515, police re-
ported.
Detective Capt. Thomas Woods
gave this account:
w. Ray Morgan, the loan COM
pany manager, saw a man walk
up to the counter carrying a
brown shopping bag. He pointed
a nickel-plated pistol at Mr.
Morgan.
The bandit handed the bag
over the counter and ordered the
enploye, Miss Marjorie Kane
who was using the phone, to
hang up.
Mr.. Morgan removed cash from
two drawers.
The man was last seen running
north on Columbus street. He
was described as between Is and
80 years old, in need of a shave
and wearing sunglasSes.
Maryland detectives said they
believe the Alexandria holdup
man may be the same man re-
sponsible for recent loan COM
pany robberieS in Frederick, Sill
yer Spring and Mount Rainier
Montgomery County detectives
said the description ties in with
the report of the 5000 holdup OF
the Liberty Finance Co. in Fred
erick last Monday and the $1,126
holdup of the Coastal Finance
Co. June 81 in Silver Spring.
1t. Vincent Free of Prince
Georges County police, said the
Alexandria report describes a
man who resembles the bandit
who held up the Lenders Finance
Co. for 81, 200 on July Z.

KenIworth Project Dilemma:
What to Do About the Tracks

Director John N. Robertson, the
railroad will have to pass be-
meath the Kenilworth overpass
and through the complex net of
curving service roads linking
Deane avenue with Kenilworth
avenue.
Two Grade Crossings.
1t means, Mr.. Robertson said,
the rail line will have to cross
at least two of these streets at
grade. And these streets will
be heavily trafficked. About four
or five coal cars daily make the
passage to Pepco along this
route.
Furthermore, the Kenilworth
avenue plan between Deane ave-
nue. and Benning road calls for
service roads paralleling the
eXpressway and entering it at
intervals. The rail line would
probably have to be located in
the parkway separating the main
thoroughfare from the service
roads. Where the latter enter
the thoroughfare, they would
have to cross the railroad.
The Highway Department tig-
ures that the best solution, from
a highway standpoint, Is an
other plan pending before Con-
gress. This bill, submitted by
Pepco, asks authority TO build, at
its own expense, a railway over
pass at Kenilworth avenue near
Foote street. This structure
would carry a rail spur from the
main railroad line to the power
plant, and obviate necessity of
the facilities of either East
Washington Railway or Capital
Transit Co.

Senators Take Plea
For Peace Cross Aid
To White House

Members of the Maryland Con-

ence, they said they insisted that

million of State funds which
cannot be released without some
Federal money to help start the
project.
Furthermore, Gov. McKeldin
has announced he has ordered
the State Roads Commission to
begin raising the roads at
Bladensburg, which they said
would be a useless expenditure
and no answer to the problem.
Senator Butler recently ap-
pealed to Budget Director Dodge

up yesterday with a letter to
Chairman Bridges of the Sen
ate Appropriations Committee,
