A startling rs per cent drop in
Army re-enlistments in the last
six months has sent high officers
and Congress members scurrying
to find ways to remedy the situa-
ton.
Over a 10-month period the
drop has been some IS per cent
from the previous rate. Even
old-time regularS-the sergeants
and corporals often referred to
as the hard core" of the Army
are turning in their uniforms in
larger and larger numbers.
There are some $50, 900 of these
veterans among the Is million
Army enlisted men.
The IS per cent drop has been
Army-wide. Ofhcials decline to
break it down between oldtimers
and frst-term enlistees but they
did disclose the details as to
men who had been drafted. The
statisticians had figured they
would be able to persuade about
10 per cent of these men to re-
main. Only 2 per cent are stay
ing.
The situation indicates and
probably will necessitate larger
draft calls in the future, though

The Federation Of Citizens
Associations last night voted to

two more members to the Dis
trict Board of Commissioners.
The association declared that
both the pending House and
Senate bills, which would in
crease the present board to a
total of five commissioners,
should be defeated.
The group declared the total
cost of such a move would be
about $4,000 a year and would
be a step not toward home rule
but elsewhere"
In another action the aSsocia-
ton opposed the extension Of
rent control beyond June 30 be-
cause. members argued, it is not
expected that rents would be in
creased if controls are dropped.
The federation also unani-
mously voted to urge Congress to

would make uniform a law of

the Senate Investigations Sub
committee with Undersecretary
of State Donold' B. Lourie that
Mr.. Matson will be restored to
his old job Immediately.
Mr.. Lourie, who took office
last Monday in the new Eisen-
hover administration, agreed to
study the whole case thoroughly
and advise the subcommittee
later whether additional action
by the department is warranted.

Senator's felt it would be ''im-
proper to suggest any disciplinary
action" - presumably against
those responsible for Mr.. Mat

testimony.

into a search for any waste and
subverSive influences in the State

program. Senator Mccarthy con-
tended Mr.. Matson was denoted
to a "pavement-pounding, door,
bell-ringing" job in reprisal for
his testimony that reports on

suspect had disappeared from the
departments personnel files.
This was denied by Samuel j.

Undersecretary Of State, and
John w. Ford, director Of the
departments Security Division.
They testified Friday that Mr..
Matson had been shifted from
inevtsigative work in the person.
mel division to an outside job be-
cause his presence in the ofnce
had created a bad morale prob
lem among other employees.
Mr.. Ford, who took response

sharply challenged much OF the
security agents testimony. He
commended that f1ve Of Mr.. Mat
sons charges before the sub
committee were untrue" or
only half true"

The Safeway Store fire at
Lee Highway and North Bu-
chanan street, Arlington, was
extinguished at 1855 am.
today. The store was totally
demolished.
A general-alarm fire virtually
destroyed the Safeway Store at
Lee highway and North Bu-
chanan street in Arlington last
night, drawing firefighters from
Alexandria, Fairfax and Falls
Church and tying up Saturday
night traffic on the highway.
Flames could be seen lighting
the sky two miles away.
No one was in the store at
the time the fire started a little
before II o'clock. It had closed
two hours earlier.
Big window Blows Out.
The big plate glass window in
front of the store blew out with
explosive force. shattering glass
over the sidewalk and highway.
Later, the roof fell in and
huge cracks appeared in the side
wall. Firemen feared the wall
would buckle.
Firemen were not certain what
started the blaze, which burned
an unknown amount of food
stocks. They speculated it might
have originated in an incinerator
Traffic was being detoured to
Little Falls road. The store is
located at Halls Hill, near Glebe
road.
Smoke Overcomes Fireman.
Firemen attacked the blaze
with hose from the roof. The
roof fell in about an hour and
a half after the fire started.
Arlington Policeman Joseph
Cain reported one fireman treated
with oxygen after being over
come by smoke.
The one-story brick building is
about six years old. There was
no immediate estimate of the
value of the store and its con-
tents.
Besides 10 Arlington freight
ing units, companies from Fair
fax and Falls Church fought
the flames. An Alexandria COM
pany moved in to stand by.

Works Program. Poge A-S
the city's general fund must be
supplemented-either by higher
Federal payments or sharp tax
raises-by many additional mil
lions during the next several
years in order to meet increased
operating costs.
Much of the increased money
will be needed to staff and main
tain the new public works
projects.
Congress Approval Urged.
The 1919 million price tag for
the vast Improvement program
was estimated last September
by citizens advisory committee
headed by Francis G. Addison,
jr.
The increase of $18 million and
details of the bold improvement
campaign were determined after
months of study by citizen and
official District leaders. An all
out effort will be made by citi-
zens during the next few months
to Win Congressional authorize
ton of the program before the
scheduled adjournment July /.
Despite sharp revisions in
financing estimates, the new pro-
posal retains the Addison Com
mittee's basic premise that the
city and the Federal Government
must share the cost of the criti-
cally needed improvements.
