City Hall Site
Recommended

A 22-acre site at the western
fringe of Alexandria's central
business district has been rec
commended for a new city hall
by the city planning commission
The commissions recommen-
dation. approved by a SO vote
Thursday. will be forwarded to
the City Council for considera-
ton at it's Tuesday meeting.
The planning commissions ac-
tion was taken after a recon-
mendation by Planning Director
Denis Cahill. Mr.. Cahill said the
area could become a municipal
center.
The city now owns - acres
on which the city recreation
center, swimming pool and two
buildings of the Jefferson Ele-
mentary School are located. The
school would have to be relo-
Gated, Mr.. Cahill said.
The commission recommends
the acquisition Of 10 more acres
just east Of the area in the four
blocks bounded by Cameron,
Fayette. Princess and West
streets. Mr.. Cahill said the land
and houses in these four blocks
are valued at $598, 900 and prob
ably could be acquired through
an urban-renewal program with
Federal aid. He said this would
rehabilitate a rundown area.
He said the site would provide
land for additional city buildings
as they are needed and would
be a good location for a proposed
city gymnasium auditorium.
The site is one of several sug-
gested for a new city hall. The
council now is considering a $6.2
million bond issue which would
include funds for a new city hall
|or additions to the present
building.

The United States Informa-

When the fair finally closed

and some observers credited the
exhibits Of Russian products
with having helped elect the first
Communist deputy in the his
tory of Arab world parliaments.
But the Russians failed to get
an immediate economic foothold
in the area. They sold every
thing they exhibited. but that
ended it. There was no repeat

Of an event that otherwise would

on what appears to be a ten
dency by American information
officials to take a second look at
international trade fairs in gen.
eral.
New Outlook
Before the Damascus affair,
American officials had generally
been inclined to regard fairs as
having little significance in the
global struggle between commu-
nism and democracy. Now there
are plans to enter American ex-
hibits in a number Of upcoming
international shows.
For the first time, q United
States exhibit has been sched-
uled at Italy's great industrial
fair at Milan beginning April
IL. Russia has always laborsd to
make q big impression at Milan,
and fair officials are looking for
ward to the competition with
delight.
Such fairs are used by Russia
for something much bigger than
simply drumming UP economic
trade They are used to preach
that communism. as typifled by
Russia. is superior to other ways
of life.

BY ROGER D. GREENE


The first overseas showing Of
-Cinerama was strictly a benefit
performance, but it may have
paid the biggest dividend In mo-
ton picture history.
1t had sensational effect on
q hot propaganda skirmish in
the Middle East. And it might
very well have marked a turning
point in at least one phase
Of the worldwide theological
struggle between communism
and democracy.
The setting was the Interna-
tional Trade Fair last Septem-
Der at Damascus, Syria.
Washington at first turned
down an invitation to enter ex-
hibits by saying no funds for
trade fairs were available.
But Russia, already intensity
ing her propaganda effort in
Syria, snapped up the invitation.
Within 20 days after the an
nouncement that the fair would
be held. all Communist coun-
tries except China had entered.
China signed up later.
Reds Are Energetic
The Russians put UP a $500
square yard pavilion with a
100-foot steeple, dominating the
fairgrounds. Other Communist
nations erected similarly preten-
t.ous structures in which to ex-
hibit their products. China,
starting late, built a pavilion
even bigger than that of Russia.
The French had a modest ex-
hibit. The Arab states built
token pavflions. Otherwise the
non Communist nations offered
almost nothing.
Then, q few weeks before the
fair opened, Harris Peel, infor-
nation officer at the Damascus
American Embassy. hit upon the
idea OF entering Cinerama as
the best one-shot exhibit Of
American ways. At the last min
ute, approval came from Wash
ington.
Cinerama, Inc, agreed to stage
the show at cost. The Air Force
flew equipment fromsNew York,
Munich, Istanbul and Saudi
Arabia. An Arab was flown to
the United States to do the
soundtrack in Arabic.
To say that the wide-screen
travelogue was success would
be putting it modestly, even by
non Hollywood standards.
Fight for Tickets
Tickets to the full capacity Of
the outdoor arena were pro-
vided free Of charge, but once
handed out they sold on the
black market for up to 10 Syrian
pounds $3.50. Crowds fought
