Planners 10 Ask
ST. Million for
Stream Valleys
Hope to Breuk
Series Of RefusuIs
On Completion Funds

The. Maryland National Capitol
Park and Planning Commission
has decided in an all-or- nothing
effort. to ask Congress for about
SIT million to complete de-
velopment of stream valley parks.
The request will be made when
the budget for the next fiscal
year, beginning July /, 1854.
comes before Congress.
For the last two years, Con-
gress has refused to appropriate
funds under the Capper- -Cramton
Act for the acquisition of park
land in Montgomery and Prince
Georges County. The act calls
for joint Federal and State de-
velopment of eight stream valleys
there.
Funds Again Eliminated.
And last week, conferees Of
the Senate and House left out
$265, 900 for the program in
agreeing on an appropriation
bill. That makes the third year
in a row.
Meeting yesterday, the plan
ming commission discussed what
to do about it all.
The commission members have
described the lack of appropria-
tions as almost a breach of the
contract between the Federal
Government and the State. Some
thought has been given to get
ting out of the program and
carrying on the park develop
ment as best as possible by other
means.
Robert M. Watkins, chairman
of the planning commission, sug-
gested that one more effort be
made when the next budget
comes up.
Wants Funds in Lump.
He said the commission should
ask for the remaining funds in
the original $4.5 million author
ization in one lump. He said the
commission should try to per-
Suade Congress that the program
should be finished now or it
never will be finished.
The commission agreed with
Mr.. Watkins and asked the Ma
tional Capital Planning Com
mission to request the lump sum
when it prepared its next budget.
The National Capital group pre-
sents, the budget requests for
funds under the Capper-Cram-
ton Act.
In another action, the COM
mission authorized $4,000 to
purchase six-acre tract to be
added to Northwest Branch Park,
The land is on University lane
between CoIesville and Riggs
roads.

members this year. Only four of
them were absent last night.
When committeeman were cho-
sen in the Democratic primary
last week, they we're evenly di-
vided between the liberal and
conservative factions.
Unity Is KeynOted.
Although the two wings of the
party have sharply split in
backing Arlington candidates for
local and State Offices. unity was
the ketynote of the meeting
after the elections.
Accepting the Craftsmanship,
Mr.. Urbanske told the commit
teemen:
I'm for laying the cards on
the table-face up. We know
there are two groups here, but
it is my hope we will work to-
gether."
The theme of party harmony
was seconded warmly by several
committeeman of both camps.
Three other elective posts on
the committee were filled by con-
Servative members, Mr.. Lyons
was named vice chairman. Jo-
seph c. Cole and Mrs. Maud N.
Dove were chosen treasurer and
secretary, respectively.
Retiring chairman of the COM
mittee was Leonard Hilder, who
has held the Office two years.
He did not seek reelection to
the committee in the primary.
Heads Telephone Local.
The new chairman of the COM
mittee is president of Local 1886,
a CIO telephone workers union
with members from the Wash
ington Metropolitan Area.
In the recent primary contest
for three Democratic nomina-
tions for Virginia House of Dele
gates seats, Mr.. UrbanSke was
campaign manager for the only
liberal Democrat named in Ar
lington-Mrs. Kathryn H. Stone.
A lifelong resident of Arling-
ton, he is a representative of
the Virginia Highlands precinct.
He and his wife and two chill
dren live at 904 South Eighteenth
street.
He is a past commander of
American Legion Post 319 in
Arlington, president of the
Jefferson Civic League and a
member of the Executive Com
mittee of the School Board Nom
mating Conference.
School Board Issue.
Candidates for School Board
seats are another pointof differ
ence between the liberal Demo-
Gratis and the conservative
group.
AS a member of the School
Board nominating group, Mr..
UrbanSke favors its two candi-
dates, chosen Wednesday-Dr.
E. R. Draheim and L. Clark
Keating.
Conservative Democrats, how
ever, are more inclined to back
the two candidates picked at
the same time by the Arlington
Independent Movement-James
R. Miles, Sr., and Dolph Hays.
The consensus is that the new
Democratic Committee will not
declare itself as a body for
either set of School Board candi-
dates. Otherwise, the unity ex-
pressed by committeeman last
night will be short-lived.

Green Files New Suit
As Arlington Schools
Move 10 Sell Bonds


The Arlington School Board
decided last night to try again
to sell $2.8 million of school con-
struction bonds on the CONNER
cial market.
Today the boards longtime
rival, attorney John Locke
Green, filed another suit in Arl-
ington Circuit Court that may
prevent the board from selling
the bonds.
Even if Mr.. Green's latest
action stalls the bond sale. the
School Board has another pos
slble source for construction
funds.
Authority was given by the
board last night to Assistant
Supt. E. j. Braun to proceed with
plans to apply for a $2.5 million
loan from the State Literary
Fund. The State Retirement
Board is expected to meet next
month to consider the applica-
ton.
Strike Threatens Construction.
Another stumbling block, how
ever, is shaping up, Supt. Edward
Rutter reported. Eight school
construction projects scheduled
for completion by Septembe,
may be delayed by the strike OF
Metropolitan Area plumbers.
Attorney Green's suit filed to-
day is again directed against the
three Federal employees on the
school board, DR.. Barnard Joy
Or. Erwin R. Draheim and War
rem Cox.
The State Supreme Court last
month ruled against Mr.. Green
IN a similar action and later in
a special session refused to grant
nj ma new hearing.
In the new suit, Mr.. Green
cited "an apparent misleading
stipulation" in the earlier case
IhlS stipulation, the attorney
said. induced the Supreme Court
OF Appeals of Virginia to believe
That said defendants were minor
employees of the Government"
Called Major Employees.
Mr.. Green said that DR.. Joy
and DR.. Draheim are high off,
clals OF the Department of Agri-
culture and that Warren Cox
also is major Federal worker,
an attorney for the Federal
Housing Administration.
Mr.. Green makes these points
because a Virginia law permits
clerks" employed by the Federal
Government in Washington to
serve on local schools boards.
He contends that the positions
held by the three defendants are
outside this category.
Mr.. Green filed today's action
in behalf of another Arlington
attorney, Miles Spence Bray
who cites his interest as a citizen
and taxpayer.
Named as defendant in addi-
ton to the three school boa a
members is County Treasurer
Colin Macpherson. Mr.. Green
asked the court to enjoin Mr..
MACPHERSON from paying school
board salaries to the three Fed
eral employees.

Temporary Schools
In County Suggested
To Ease Shortage

erection OF temporary schools
without unnecessary facilities
and conveniences was suggested
last night as a way by which the
Prince Georges County Board of
Education might ease it's current
classroom shortage.
The idea was presented by a
group of county residents Sc
lected by the county commission
ers and the School Board to ad-
wise the latter group on its prob
lem. School Supt. William S.
Schmidt has said the county still
will be faced with an increasing
! shortage of classrooms next year
in spite of q $26 million con-
struction program to be COM
pleted in the fall of 1854.
Mr.. Schmidt has cited the
county's increasing population
and the lack of school construc-
ton money as sources of the
problem.
Other Economies Suggested.
Also suggested as economy
measures were the reduction or
elimination of architects fees
and continuation of double
Shifts.
The Citizens Advisory CON-
mittee on the School Building
Program did not make Official
recommendations because only
eight of the Is committee men,
bers were present.
Members felt erection of tenn
porary schools in newly-devel-
oped areas would save the county
money over a IS to 20-year
period. The schools would be
built in new housing develop
ments, which usually are in
habited by young families, they
said.
After these families have edu-
Gated their children, the facil-
tiles could be moved to new
developments where the popula-
ton was increasing with an
influx of more young families.
1t was pointed out that schools
in Cottage City, Mount Rainier
and Hyattsville, which formerly
were crowded now must import
pupils by bus to fill their class
rooms.
No Frame Buildings.
. The temporary schools, mem
bers said, should not be frame
buildings because they are too
hard to maintain. They sug-
gested something on the order
of a cinder block construction.
The citizens favored the stand
ardiZation of several architects
plans of different size schools
and reusing these plans as money
for new structures are allocated.
This way they eventually hope
to eliminate the present archi-
tect'S fee, which is per cent Of
the cost of the building drawn.
Some members expressed hope
architects would reduce their fee
to as per cent.
The committee plans to make
official recommendations at a
meeting at 8 pm. September 10,
in the Hyattsville branch of the
Suburban Trust Co., the site of
last nights meeting.
Members present last night
were T. Howard Duckett, T.
Earle Bourne, Adrian Fisher, Alb
ram GottwalS, Joseph Longridge,
Griffith Oursler, Dudley Smith
and DR.. John Warren.
