Officials 10 Meet
With BroyhiII on
Area Transit Study
Representative Broyhill, Re-

Representative Broyhill, Re-
publican, OF Virginia has called
a meeting of District govern
ment, business and Federal
planning officials tomorrow to
seek agreement on an approach
to the long proposed Washing
ton area transit study.
The conference will be held at
a luncheon meeting in the board
room of the Army mad Navy
Club. Seventeenth and I streets
NV, at 12::45 pm. tomorrow.
Mr.. Broyhill would like sup
port from city officials for his
proposal to create a presidential
commission which would study
and recommend solutions for
transit and related problems in
the area.
A bill for this purpose was in-
troduced in the House by Mr..
Broyhill, but it ultimately be-
came part of a controversial
measure which was vetoed last
August by President Eisenhower.
That bill also provided for a
regional regulatory commission.
Spencer to Attend.
The meeting will include
Commissioner Samuel Spencer.
Chairman Robert E. McLaugh-
lin of the Public Utilities Com
mission, Chairman Harland
Bartholomew of the National
Capital Planning Commission,
and William Fl. Press, executive
vice president of the Washington
Board of Trade. i
The Commissioners and men,
bers of the Public Utilities Com
mission conferred last month
with Board of Trade officials on
the transit study authorized
early. this year by the Legisla-
lures of Virginia and Maryland.
One suggested procedure was
to seek an appropriation from
Congress in the budget of the
National Capital Planning COM
mission to be earmarked for the
Regional Planning Council to
hire professional consultants to
make the study. The council
would be expected to work close
ly with the interstate political
group authorized by the two
Legislatures.
Case Urges Action.
Chairman Case of the Senate
District Committee. who has
urged the Commissioners to "act
at once" on an area study of
the transit situation, suggested
that the planning commission
might be given representation on
the interstate group by some adj
justment in personnel of the Dis
trict's members on the new joint
commission.
He suggested that by drawing
on the technical staff of the
planning commission, the joint
commission could start work i'm
mediately, or at least well ahead
Of the time when a new COM
mission could be created by Con-
gress and become operative.
Mr.. Broyhill maintained that
suggestions for using the exist
ing groups were mot feasible, y
and that mo matter what an
swers the planning group. or

izing the civil service retirement
system.
There's good chance the leg
islation will be sponsored by
Chairman-elect Johnston Of the
Senate Civil Service Committee
and by several key Democratic
members of the House Civil Serv-
ice Committee.
The administration favors the
Kaplan Committee plan for CO.
ordinating civil service retire.
ment with social security. AS a
result, bitter fight on the whole
issue may enSue next year. ADJ
ministration officials say it would
be much too costly to try to
provide the proposed increased
benefits through liberalizing the
civil service retirement system.
They contend that supplemental
social security coverage Is the
only answer, since this can be
obtained with little extra cost to
the Government.

missed the important job. It
seems the Civil Service Commits
sion ruled that Mr.. Morrissey.
who has an impressive legal
background in Salt Lake City,
Utah, could not qualify for the
job because of lack of civil serv-
ice status. Mr.. Morrissey decided
to forget about the whole thing
when he suddenly remembered
that, as a youth, he took and
passed a railway mail clerk
exam. The csc confirmed this,
