There was a time perhaps

could afford to look on with
amused resignation at paralysis
of the French government and
the futility of the French Parlia-

passed. A sad spectacle is being
performed in the gilt rose arena

one which directly threatens the

1t was a Frenchman who
summed up the situation: 1.-The
decision that is being made is
perhaps the most important in
the history of the French parlia-

President 10 Sign
New Potomac Bridge
Measure Tomorrow
Bill Giving City Power
To Act on Condemned
Buildings Is Effected
By a stoft Correspondent. Of The s,or

DENVER, Aug. 28.-President
Eisenhower will sign the bill au-
thorizing two new Potomac
Bridges soon after he arrives in
Washington Monday morning,
White House Press Secretary
James G.. Hagerty announced
here tonight.
Another important District
measure became law today when
the President signed the bill CIV
ing the city power to force own
ers' to repair or. tear down build
ings condemned as insanitary.
Mr.. Hagerty said the President
would sign the bridge bill during
a busy morning at the White
House before he makes his noon
address to the American Legion
convention.
: Span to Cost SIS Million.
Under the bridge bill, one span
is authorized from a point in
Maryland just below the District
boundary toJones Point south of
Alexandria. The estimated cost
of this Washington bypass is
nearly SIS million, not including
approach roads.
The other bridge authorized in
the measure will serve down.
town Washington. 1t will cross
the Potomac upstream from Ar
lington Memorial Bridge and
south Of Roosevelt Memorial Is
land. linking with Twenty-fourth
or Twenty-fifth street NV. The
estimated cost is nearly $25 mill
lion.
The insanitary buildings bill
plugs a loophole in the law un-
der which the city could force
owners to vacate insanitary
premises but could not force re-
pairs or demolition.
Under the new bill, the Board
for Condemnation of Insanitary
Buildings is given the authority
to get rid of neighborhood eye
sores. A Condemnation Review
Board will be set up to review the
other boards actions and prop
erty owners also have the right
of appeal to the courts.
400 Buildings Affected.
If the condemnation board is
upheld, the owner must go ahead
with repair or demolition. If the
owner fails to do so, the District
will do it and assess the costs to
the owner.
Reports to the President esti-
mated that there now are 400
buildings here which have been
condemned but have neither
been repaired nor demolished.
In urging presidential approval
OF the measure, the District
Commissioners said the approx
mately S150,000 annual cost Of
administering it would be reim-
bursed by assessments against
property owners.

Legion May Oppose
PenaIizing Veterans
Who Avoid Reserve
PorIey Is Expected
To Vote Extension
Of UNIT Authority
By John A. Giles

American Legion officials were
reported last night to be opposed
to slapping q penalty on veter-
ans who refuse to join the mill
tary reserve outfits as long as
millions Of other youths have not
been called to the colors.
The present universal military
training law requires that men
who have served "a months &C
tive duty also face eight years
as reservists. But it fails to pro-
vide any penalty for not joining
the reserves. Therefore, the re-
serve organizations have suffered
and the National Security Coun-
Gil presently is studying the
problem with the idea Of making
recommendations to Congress in
January. The act expires next
June 80.
Hannah Plan Opposed.
DR.. John A. Hannah, former
Assistant Defense Secretary for
Manpower. recommended that
those who failed to become re-
servists be drafted for an addi-
tional Is months.
But the Hannah suggestion is
opposed by the Legionnaires be-
cause military service has been
selective and not universal. The
Legion's National Security Com
mission, after hearing UNIT and
draft experts talk yesterday. met
in executive session today to iron
out q recommendation on the
subject. There seemed little
doubt it would recommend an
extension of authority for UNIT
since 1t has favored such a plan
for 20 years. But a penalty pro-
vision was another matter.
The commission also was con-
sidering a recommendation ia

national exchange of atomic in

not with Russia and her satel-
