No Decision Near,
Secretary Weeks
Tells Delegation

The use of Andrews Air Force
Base to relieve congestion at Ma
tional Airport is still up in the
air, Commerce Secretary Weeks
said yesterday, and is not likely
to be resolved soon.
Andrews and Friendship Air
port near Baltimore are among
the sites under consideration, he
said, following a conference yes
terday on Capitol Hill with mem.
bers of the Maryland Delegation
in Congress. But. he said:
mo decision has been f1nalized
in any sense of the word"
The conference was arranged
after recent published reports
that some kind of an agreement
had been reached for use Of
Andrews for commercial airlin-
ers.
No Funds Now Available
"We have been talking about
Andrews for Is months-other
places, too, including Friend
ship" the Secretary said.
"But I wouldn't call it even q
tentative agreement. We have
been talking about what to do
if we went out there Ito An
drews). Assuming that we want
to go there and Congress would
want us to go there, this Is
where we would come Ito Con-
gress) to get the money"
Accompanied by Robert B.
Murray, Undersecretary of Com
merce for Transportation, Secre-
tary Weeks explained no money
is now available for expenses to
prepare any site for the second
airy airport.
Speaking for the Maryland
group, Republican Senator Bean
said: I'VE are gratif1ed to know
that nothing definite has been
decided"
Opposed by Residents.
Republican Represe NATIVE
Small, whose congressional dis
trict includes Andrews, has been
carrying his protest against use
of Andrews to high administra-
ton officials. Residents of the
area near Andrews have objected
to use of that field for CONNER
cial flying.
Secretary Weeks was asked
when some decision might be ex-
pected on the question of a Sec
ondary Washington airport.
mot in the near future" he
replied.
In his fight to get the over
flow from Washington National
Airport for Friendship, Senator
Butler has introduced a bill
calling for repeal of the legisla-
ton authorizing the new WASH
ington field at Burke, Va.
Large parcels of land were
purchased by the Government
for that project, but Congress
refused to appropriate further
funds to continue acquisition.
and the Burke site has virtually
been abandoned.
Also anticipating in the con-
ference yesterday was Repub.
lican Representative Devereux.

Mixed Schools
Is Issue in 10Th
District Race
Four Democrats
Outline Stund at
Arlington RuIIy

The question Of attendance Of
white and Negro children in the
same schools in Virginia has be-
come the big issue of the 10th
district race for the Democratic
nomination for Congress.
The four candidates addressed
a luncheon Of the Organized
Women Voters Of Arlington yes
terday at Hogate's Arlington
House. One of them will be Sc
lected in the July Is primary to
run for the Office now held by
Representative Broyhill, Repub-
lican.
j. Walter White. an attorney.
of Mclean. said the Congress-
man representing Arlington.
Alexandria, Fairfax County and
Falls Church should be a man
who will work to preserve "the
inherent right Of our State to
educate its own children"
Arlington Only Prospect
Only in Arlington County. Mr..
White said, is there any prospect
of integrated schools in Virginia.
The State could and should
continue to maintain separate
schools despite the Supreme
Court opinion. Mr.. White said.
He added, 1--WE know the advo-
Gates of integrated schools will
find that Virginia and other
Southern States are not going to
impose indignation upon our
children by forcing them into
mixed schools. ="
Mr.. White said that two Of his
opponents, delegate John C..
Webb, of Fairfax, and Dean
Brundage, social science teacher
at Washington-Lee High School
"are competing for the favor of
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People. "
Mr.. Webb charged that Mr..
White sis trying to ride a dead
horse to victory" by discussing a
matter that is not an issue in
this campaign"
Calls Stand Futile.
"It is an absolutely futile stand
to say we're going to oppose the
end of segregation" Mr.. Webb
said. He expressed his belief
that the only thing that could
alter the Supreme Court decision
would be an amendment to the
United States Constitution.
In the 10th district (which we
have practically equal facilities. +"
Mr.. Webb said, ':we're going to
find they want separate schools. +"
Attorney c. Louis Knight said.
81 believe that somehow segre-
gated schools will be preserved.
I am in favor Of separate col
ored schools. not inferior to
white. Mr.. Knight said he will
support Fundamentally "any &C
ton that the Governor, attorney
general and local school boards
take in respect to schools"
Will Support Court.
Mr.. Brundage, in response to a
question from the floor, said the
will of the Supreme Court is the
supreme law of the land. He
says he has some reservations
about the wisdom Of the decision
but will support whatever rec
concentrations come out of the
Supreme Court this fall.
The candidates also raised an
other issues: What Mr.. Knight
called recent disclosure Of Mr..
Broyhill's unsupported depths of
sympathy for Federal employees. "
He said that Federal employees
have been subjected to a reign
of terror under the Republican
administration.
Mr.. White and Mr.. Webb also
charged that Federal employe
morale has suffered under the
RADllbliCanS.

New Water Mains
In Rockville Area
Due by July "A

Rockville's water shortage,
which has brought rationing re-
strictions in recent weeks, will
be relieved by July "a, the Wash
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission announced yesterday.
The commission accepted the
lowest of seven bids for inStalla-
ton of more than a mile Of IA
and Is inch water mains under
Rockville pike. The low bidder,
at $18,989. was the Intercounty
Construction Corp. of Hyatts-
vile. The pipe will be provided
by the commission.
Water will be sold at the rate
of q cents per 1000 gallons.
Rockville now gets its water
from wells.
David Belts. Rockville city at
torney, handed the commission
a check for SIS, 104, representing
the cost Of one water main ex-
tension. The commission is pay
ing the difference for the larger
mains. This will allow the city
to serve outlying areas as well as
customers within the Rockville
limits. Total cost of the project
is estimated to be about SIT, 900.

Il Short Story
BY VIRGINIA w. STRUBLE

MKom was mixing deviled eggs
Iva for our school lunch when she
missed the pepper. ''You had it last,
Louise" she said.
I remembered putting it back on
the shelf. but when l looked up from
the sandwiches I was spreading, 1
saw Edward putting on his innocent
act. It's easy for him to do with
his big blue eyes. I knew it was
April FOOLS Day, but he broke me
of tattling before I was three.
I grabbed the pepper shaker on
the table and handed it to Nom,
hoping she would forget about the
can. She is usually understanding,
but she wouldn't stand for any
pepper nonsense = especially at
school. She finished the lunch while
I put on my coat and tied my scarf.
took both lunch pals and went
outdoors. Edward was not in sight
and didn't answer my call. I started
off alone but he caught up with me
while I was going through the pas
ture fence. In his hand was one
of MONS prize carnations. 1t was
dark red and crinkled SO pretty it
made my throat hurt.
''Did Nom say you could have
it?'
Edward only grinned but I had
my answer.
"How come? Is it for Marge?"
She's in seventh grade with Edward.
EDWARD HAD A fiendish ex-
preston and knew he was headed
for another licking. Two, to be
exact, for Dad always said, eff you

Mr.. Gallahorn said students
are allowed to advance at their
own rate. Many Of them come
to the school just to learn Eng
liSh, he explained, but most stay
on to prepare for naturalization
as American citizens.
The advanced instruction pro-
gram of the school, which was
integrated into the public school
system in 1924, is recognized as
sufficient reference by the Ma
turalization Service, Mr.. Gala
horn said. If the school desired
to certify a student as ready
for citizenship, the usual pre-
naturalization examination would
be waived. The school has never
exercised this prerogative, how
ever.
At a student assembly in the

The veteran. William G. Fary,

District police chased him across
Chain Bridge into Virginia.
During the chase police fired
at the fleeing auto, which Fary
had borrowed from a Marine
buddy at Norfolk, where he was
discharged the day before. Cross
ing the bridge, the auto struck
an abutment' and its hood flew
up. The wild ride ended when
the car smashed into a culvert
on North Glebe road.
Fary, who has waived extra
dition, faces a charge of assault
with a dangerous weapon placed
by Metropolitan Police. The pur-
suing police officers said he
swerved the auto at them when
they tried to halt him.
