Annapolis Freewoy Expected to Be Finished by SO

At Parole, cars can turn right
for Annapolis and bay resorts,
or turn left for the temporary
route to the new Severn River
Bridge, two miles above An
napolis, and the road to the Bay
Bridge. They thus miss travel
ing through the crowded, mar
row streets in Annapolis.
Work is well under way on the
dual-lane extension from Pa
role to the Severn River, a con-
nection with Maryland Route 2
to the south, and a three-level
interchange on the other side
of the Severn at Ritchie and
Revell highways.
DeadIine Set.
A tentative timetable of COM
pletion dates was announced by
the roads agency. A bridge
across Route so at Parole will
be ready by May L; the Parole
Severn River stretch, by June /;
the Ritchie-Revell interchange
by June Is, and the Route 2
connection about the same time.
When this work is complete

Firms Urged 10 Avoid
Christmas Presents
To District Employees

Contractors and supply firms
doing business with the District
government are being asked by
the Commissioners to refrain
from Offering Christmas gifts
to District employees.
The action followed a similar
request made last week by Po-
lice Chief Robert v. Murray, who
said policemen would not be al
lowed to accept gifts.
In letter being mailed to
businessmen, the Commissioners
wrote:
"The Commissioners are aware
that many well-meaning citizens
wish to express their apprecia-
ton for effective services rem
dered by employees of the District
by rendering gifts. especially
during the holiday season. The
Commissioners thoroughly un-
derstand the spirit whic h
prompts this practice, but deemed
it expedient to restate the policy
of the District government re-
garding the acceptance of such
gifts by employees. The co-opera-
ton of all citizens in observing
strict adherence to this policy is
earnestly solicited"

off the eXpreSsway near Kenil-

PENNSYLVANIA Railroad tracks
past Cheverly to the West Lam
ham area before cutting to the
east through Ardmore and on
towards Route 301.
The 12-year-plan, incidentally,
also bears good news for motor
lists going to the other side of the
Bay Bridge. At present, a new
dual highway extends inland on
the Eastern Shore some II miles
to a point near Queenstown.
From there. Route so becomes a
single lane, sometimes congested
highway running to Cambridge,
Salisbury and Ocean City. The
Bay Bridge-Delaware route is
worse, winding over country
roads through Centreville,
Church Hill, Sudlersville and on
to U. S. Route 13 at Smyrna,
Del.

Going north, however, work
is due for completion within the
next two weeks on a nearly four
mile extension of the dual high
way from Queenstown to U. S.
Route 213, south of Centreville
In the next four years. a new
road-the first lane of projec-
ted dual highway-will be con-
structed from Route 213 to War
wick in Cecil County, near the
Delaware line. From Warwick, it
is just six miles to the dual
lane Route Is at Odessa, Del
The latter is only about 18 miles
to the Delaware Memorial Bridge

Refrigeration Mechanics
Request Own LICENSING

The Commissioners today were
asked to license refrigeration
mechanics to install and repair
refrigerators and air-conditioners
without proposed supervision by
plumbers or electricians.
The request came from the
District Refrigeration Trade
Association. The city heads took
it under advisement.
The commissioners have been
considering a proposal to require
refrigeration installations to be
made under supervision of
plumbers and electricians. AS
an alternative the refrigeration
men would have to have a
plumbers or electricians license.

Stiff Fight Promised
Against Proposal for
Medical Use Of Dogs

Warnings were received by the
Commissioners today that stiff
fight will be made against pro-
posals to permit hospitals and
medical schools to have dogs
from the pound for experiment
tation.
Representatives of opponents
of the order asked a postpone
ment of the hearing on it, which
has been set for next Friday.
The Commissioners decided the
hearing will be held as Sched-
uled but that second hearing
will be held January Is for those
unable to appear at the first
hearing.
DonOhue Leads Opponents.
The postponement was asked
by former Commissioner F. Jo-
seph Donohue, who said he rep
resents as attorney several per-
sons opposed to the use of dogs
for medical experiments.
He said he doubted that under
the District reorganization act
the Commissioners could carry
out the plan because Congress
itself took action adverse to it
several years ago. Some OBJ
servers surmised that this state
ment foreshadowed a court fight
if the plan is adopted.
The plea for postponement
was supported by Edward North
rup. attorney for the Humane
Society and the Animal Rescue
League of the District. and Rob-
ert Watson, attorney for the Ar
lington County League.
Cites Short Notice.
Mr.. Donohue said his clients
| received notice only November
II that they should give notifica-
tion by today if they wanted to
appear at the hearing. He said
! the intervening week end and
the Thanksgiving holiday re-
! suited in insufficient time for his
clients to make adequate. plans.
Commissioner Renah T. Ca
mailer expressed doubt that OPP
ponents of the measure could be
ready in the 80 days for which a
postponement was asked.
The Commissioners then de-
cided on the additional hearing
in January.

By Charles A. McAIeer

The Maryland State Roads
Commission now has an answer
for Washington area motorists
who've been taking advantage of
10-mile section of the new
Annapolis freeway and wonder
ing when the rest will be COM
pleted.
1t won't be next year, even
though several phases are due to
be finished by early summer.
The missing link is distance
of some II miles between the
Grain highway (Route 3OD in
Prince Georges County and the
District line near Kenilworth.
The project is scheduled for
completion in the first four-year
portion of the State Roads Com
missions 12-year highway plan
which begins in 1854.
The plans, however, still are
in the preliminary stage and
most. property rights-of-way
have yet to be obtained.
Bids Next Year.
According to the commission S
public relations director, Charles
T. LeViness. the agency expects
to advertise for bids and start
work on half of this unfinished
project during the 1854 con-
Struction season. The rest will
be started later. within the four
year period.
Meanwhile, other portions of
the new freeway-also designed
to provide a short cut to the Bay
Bridge, Maryland's Easter
Shore and points north-already
are in use or under construction
The portion in use is 10-mile
dual-lane express highway con-
Meeting Route 301, near Colling-
ton in Prince Georges County
with Route so at Parole in Anne
Arunuel county.
Denied Access.
This new highway-aS yet un-
discovered by many District Area
motoriSts-lies between the pres
ent winding Route so and Cen
trail avenue extended eMaryland
Route 214) There are no en-
frances or exits except at both
ends.
Motorists using Defense high
way (Route so. between the
Peace Cross. Bladensburg. and
Priests Bridge can get on the
express road by turning south
on Route 301 for 2tz miles. It's
also been a boon for north
bound traffic on Route 301.

Carper-TaY|or Case
Referred 10 Browne||
For Appeal Decision

Future action against two
suspended Narcotics Squad po-
licemen, 1t. H. H. Carper and
Sergt. William Taylor, has been
placed in the hands of Attorney
General Brownell, United States
Attorney Leo A. Rover said
today.
Mr.. Rover said he was follow
ing Justice Department policy
in referring the Carper- Taylor
matter to the Attorney General
for a decision on whether the
Government should seek an
appeal
An indictment returned on
May %, 1852, charging the po-
licemen with narcotics conspiracy
and bribery was thrown out last
Tuesday by Judge Edward A..
Tamm of the IL. S. District Court
for the District of Columbia.
Judge Tamm ruled that the
presence of United States deputy
marshalS as guards for prisoner
witnesses in the grand jury
room was illegal.
Mr.. Rover explained that
Judge Tamm's action was a
final determination" against
the Government and therefore
he was required by Justice De-
partment policy to refer the mat
ter to Mr.. Brownell.
At the same time, Mr.. Rover
said he forwarded the Carper-
Taylor case with the request that
the department act as "expedi-
tiouSly as possible" The prose-
cutor said he expected Mr.,
Brownell'S answer within two
weeks.
Should the Criminal Division
of the Justice Department de-
eide an appeal of Judge Tamm' S
ruling would be futile, the case
"unquestionably" would be re-
presented to a grand jury in
efforts to seek a re-indictment, a
prosecution official declared.
Under court rules the Gov
eminent has until early next
April to seek a re-indictment.
However. the same official as
serted. I'VE have no intention
of waiting that long"
1t. Carper and Sergt. Taylor,
his principal aide. has been
charged with taking bribes from
narcotics peddlers in exchange
for permitting them to peddle
heroin in the District.

The weather really grabbed the
spotlight last week, with roses and
chrysanthemums in full bloom one
day and 6l3 inches of snow the
next. We hear that at least one
hostess who thought she was hav-
ing guests for bridge Friday eve
ming ended up with unexpected
guests to spend the night. Others
walked long distances to get home
when cars stalled in drifts unheard
of in early November.
By Saturday evening things
were getting back to normal, and
three activities went off as plan
ned. The turkey supper at st.
Luke's was well attended-they
had bad luck last summer with a
storm, we seem to remember.
The Senior Farmers Club met

were some 100 guests present at
the dinner, which was held at Sher-
wood, preceded by a punch bowl
at the Post home in Brookeville.
Commander Clyde Unglesbee pre-
sided, and Francis Thomas served
as chairman of entertainment. The
serious talk of the evening was
given by DR.. Rubin Steinmyer,
head Of the Political Science De-
partment of Maryland University,
who talked on changing attitudes
in Italy and France. In the lighter
entertainment which followed, Mrs.

Scrap Wood

The David Taylor Model Basin
began a new program of making
its scrap wood available to the
public during the week of Novem-
Der 9, 1853. This scrap consists of
short ends and odd pieces from
the Woodworking Shop, packing
crates and other wood left over
from structural operations. 1t has
been carefully screened by the
Public Works Officer to make sure
that it no longer can serve any
useful purpose at the Taylor Mod
ell Basin. However, such wood is
suitable for use in woodburning
stoves and freplaces.
1t will be dumped on Navy prop
erty just outside the northeast
gate, otherwise known as Gate
Number 3 at the Taylor Model
Basin, where it will be available
during daylight hours to any who
care to come and load it in Their
vehicles. This spot can be reached
from Macarthur Boulevard by
turning down the hill on the Navy
heavy duty road to Gate Number
3.
This method of disposal will
save the government transporta-
ton costs in hauling it from the
Taylor Model Basin to the Gun
Factory.
