Now that the election is over,
Federal officials look for an early

long standing vacancy on the

The tussle. traditional one by
now with each commission va

ton. The District Commissioners
feel a Washington man should
be named because of the complex
local issues involved. National

have access to the White House

deal with the Federal character

Despite a brave effort, last
Tuesdays election apparently
didn't net anything for the band
Of nearby Maryland residents
who are trying to block construc-
tion of the new inter- county belt
road in Rock Creek Park near
their homes
If anything, in fact, their
prospects may have become a bit
bleaker.
Here's what happened:
For months, the pressure had
been on Governor McKeldin to
halt the park use for the belt
road and its connection with
Route 240.
A few weeks before the cleo
ton, one group of citizens wide
ly circulated a list of candidates
identified, regardless of party, as
friends" of the anti-road group.
The list included Governor Nc
Keldin'S opponent. DR.. H. c..
Byrd.
Then, as last weekend rolled
around. the road-park battle be-
came something of a campaign
issue. In kilograms:
Governor McKeldin said he
understood new alternate plan
had been submitted that might
not make the park use necessary.
DR.. Byrd said this Change of
heart" was political trickery"
and promised fatty the park
would not be used if he became
Governor.
AS it turned out. the only "al-
ternate plan" the citizens, or
newspapermen, could discover,
was one submitted and rejected
by the State Roads Commission
weeks earlier. The citizens fired
back kilograms to the candidates
-commending DR.. Byrd and de-
manding Qualification from Gov
ernor McKeldin.
Mr.. McKeldin, reelected Gov
ernor Tuesday, wired the citizens
Monday night he had assumed
the alternate" he referred to
he would support any alternate
that would be feasible from the
standpoint of cost, engineering
and traffic benefit.
But his wire didn't indicate
he thought there was much pros
pect anyone would submit such
an alternate.
And DR.. Byrd, who lost the
election, won't have the job of
living up to the fiat commit
ment he made to find one.

To Block Belt Road in Park

is simply that the political op-
position is too strong to buck.
And Friendship International,
the Baltimore field backed by
Maryland legislators, is consid-
cred too far by automobile to
get the nod.
So it's a good bet that-unless
a brand-new site is in the max
ing-CAA officials are concen-
trating efforts on trying to make
a deal with Air Force officials
for use of the big Andrews base.
The 31-mile Baltimore Wash
ington parkway. going into its
third week of operation as a full
length route today, has averaged
better than 10000 cars day.
District officials think the vol
urne will drop; that part of the
load is generated because the
road is new. But no one who has
the slightest excuse for using
it is likely to go back to roads
they were using before.

The latest bad news for mo-
torists who battle Potomac
bridges in rush hours twice day
is that the present 224,000 river
crossings a day will expand to
between 100000 and 375,00O by
1870.
The estimate, made by the
Wilbur Smith & Associates con-
sulting firm to Federal planners,
said at least IA more bridge lanes
spotted in the right places
be needed to handle the load.
just a year ago, in a study
made for Virginia, the Smith
group estimated there would be
$4,000 cars crossing the river
by the year 1878. The firm said
the new figure was based on the
latest employment, population
and land-use studies.
