Watt and the Regional Planning
Council Is the preparation Of an
overall land use plan. Such q
plan has to be made before the
council can offer recommended
tons for area development. Mr..
Watt says. To prepare it, he is
encouraging the different juriS-
dictions to gather detailed data
about present land use which he
can incorporate in the large plan.
Again, his job is largely a matter
of diplomacy.
Another kind of information
/ which is necessary to the area
master plan which is the ulti-
mate goal of the regional coun-
Gil is that obtained in an eco
nomic survey. Such. surveys have
been completed for Arlington,
Fairfax, Montgomery and Prince
Georges Counties and one is in
progress in Falls Church, but the
District, Alexandria and LOU
doun County still don't have one.
It's not the job of the council
to make such studies. Mr.. Watt
says, but to encourage each

By HARRY BACAS

Every new house that goes up
In the fast-expanding Washing
ton area pushes every single in
dependent political jurisdiction
closer to decision on this mo-
mentous question:
Shall the Metropolitan area
be developed as a helter-skelter
collection of independent settle
ments pursuing largely indie
pendent courses, or shall it be
developed as an orderly, in
tegrated region serving the
needs and convenience Of all
residents Of the entire area?
Three years ago, Congress
recognized the major Importance
of overall regional planning for
the entire area when it set up
the National Capital Regional
Planning Council.
The i6ea al that time was
that the Council prepare a gen
eral plan for the development
Of the region"
What has been done so far
to carry out Congress wishes?
Here's a nutshell report: The
council has tapped its wings, but
Is not yet off the ground, though
prospects seem to be improving.
Not until last year did the
council succeed in obtaining
even one employe. Today it still
has that lone staff member
Paul C. Watt. who serves as
chief planner.
Task Is Educational
Mr.. Watt, a personable, 30
year-old city planner with a
pleasant smile. said today his
Job is largely educational at the
moment.
There are two kinds of edu-
cation needed in this job" he
says. "One is public education
I don't believe any kind of city
planning can be successful with
out informed citizen support"
Mr.. Watt knows about winning
public support. In his last job
as kcity planner for Lincoln
Nebr., he spoke three or four
times every week to citizen
groups. He estimates he showed
one film explaining coming al
least 400 times.
But before you go out to sell
the public, you've got to have
something to SELL" he says. "Ano
we haven't yet reached that
point"
That's where the second kind
of education comes in.
As a regional planner, Mr.
Watt explains, he must start
where planners in each of the
area Jurisdictions leave off. He
must depend on local officials tt
gather detailed data in theil
own sections, which he then car

National Capital Area.

In their respective jurisdictions.
One of the area problems Mr..
Watt is dealing with is the
proposed outer belt highway
encircling Washington. Progress
has not been uniform, 50 far. he
says. Maryland highway plan
ners have their part of the route
pretty well laid out and are al
ready acquiring rights Of way
from the site of a Jones Point
Bridge crossing on the south
around to Cabin John on the
north.
But the Virginia route Of the
highway has already been
changed three or four times, he
says, and he only hopes the cur
rent location will stick.
Money Is Slow Coming
cts still pretty much catch
as-catch-can over there" he
says, because the Virginia High
way Department has been slow
in allocating money for the belt
highway and there is no law
allowing rights of way to be
reserved until money becomes
available"

ming Ia . trafic study. The eoun-
ell expects to have $500, 900 soon
for a study Of mass transit in the
area and hopes to get another
100000 to complete the study
next year. The National Capital
Planning Commission will get
. the money from Congress and
has told Mr.. Watt that he will
supervise the study.
AS far as Potomac River
bridges go, Mr.. Watt says he is
keeping hands of.
Its not a regional problem. u
he says. MY job is to take what
ever plans are approved In each
Jurisdiction and try to co-ordi-
nate them. Besides, ! don't feel
now that I can look at the ques-
ton of bridges and say on the
basis of any National Capital
area plan that a bridge ought to
go here or go there."e
He feels the same way about
sewer, water, parks and schools
programs. Keeping each juris-
diction abreast of what's going
on in other areas, he feels, is

the best way 10 insure that plan

Since coming to Washington
he has demonstrated his knacl
for diplomacy by living first IL
the District. then in Arlington
Va. and now in Montgomery
County. Md. He bought a house
in Chevy Chase last month
where he lives with his wife and
two young sons.

Mr.. Watt says. And that takes
some diplomacy"
Formed Committee
Mr.. Watt found that some of
the nearby planning bodies didn't
know one another. and some
times didn't even know Of the
others existence.
So one of his first acts was
to form a staff committee, /"
made up of his professional
counterparts on each of the local
planning groups. These men

State Will Halt
Polio Program Now

The Salk vaccine program will
not be resumed in Maryland until
further Developments" the State
Board of Health decided this week.
DR.. Edward Davens, chief of the
Health Departments Bureau of
Preventive medicine, told reporters
after the board meeting there
isn't drop" of anti-polio vaccine
in the state.
He and Dr. Huntington Williams,
Baltimore health commissioner,
recommended a Wait-and-see atti-
tude on resumption of the program
because of the changing situation
in the national picture on the Salk
vaccine matter" and because of the
lack of vaccine.
Davens said LAS children re-

Ordered Held For
Jury After Shooting

Two men who allegedly staged a
wild shooting spree ten days ago
on U. S. route 40, near Gorley's
Lake which injured two Allegany
county men, last Friday were held
for action of the September grand
jury in Fayette county. Pa
The pair, William w Jackson,
50, Denver truck driver, and Sam
uel P johnson, 80, Houston. Texas,
are being held in the county Jail
at Uniontown on $4,000 bond each
on charges Of felonious shooting.
Fayette County Sheriff Jacob
Echard said the two pleaded not
guilty to the charges at a prelimi-
nary hearing before Justice of the
Peace Victor Holt, who set the
bond.
Sheriff Echard said the two men
face a possible five to 20-year
sentence if indicted and convicted
on the charges.

Senate Cloakroom

United States Senator from
Maryland

The flags win be flying. the ora

and gleefully banging their fire
crackers about and the lemonade
will be cool and tempting.
Practically everywhere in the
United States, in every county and
city throughout the land, bands

AIDES have been planned and all is
ready for the celebration of the
greatest day in American history
the Fourth of July.
Independence seems to be par
ticular pride Of the American
people While in these parlous
times the shadow of fear hangs
over the world, while organized
disaster seems to threaten from
every point of the compass, we
maintain our independence and
glory in it.
Perhaps the feeling grows from
the knowledge that this independ-
ence is guaranteed by the Consti-
tuition of the United States-the
most important political document
in the history of mankind. Perhaps
il stems from the knowledge of the
sacrifices, the determination, and
the courage of our forefathers who
fought the American Revolution,
the fight which brought to fruition
the hopes and dreams of the 10
original colonies which were ex-
pressed in the Declaration of hide
pendence.
Under this Constitution our Ma
ton has expanded in territory. in
power, in commerce and in happi-
ness.
Our system of free enterprise has
been denounced by every dictator
in contemporary history We have
been branded as a capitalistic, de-
cadent and reactionary people. We
have been called soft. Perhaps that
is the definition some apply to in
dependence

necessity of undermining our high
way and road systems. The debate
in Congress RACES over how TO fl
nance needed Improvements
Historically, the location. con-
struction and financing Of roads
and highways has been a state and
local responsibility. 70 a very large
extent. il still is. our national in
terest in roads dates as far back as
1906 In that year Congress- acting

ton giving it power to establish

took to improve the road from
Cumberland, Maryland, to Wheel
ing West Virginia. Ii was not I'M
til 1916, though, that Congress first
adopted a policy OF providing fed
eral money to states for road con-
struction.
Now pending before Congress
are several bills which would eX-
pand the federal governments
share in the construction OF modern
highways and secondary roads.
There is no real difference in the
size of the proposed highway inn
provement programs. But there is
a difference in the method Of fl
nancing these programs.

tainly. it should be easy to recall
the violent, denunciatory letters of
the latter to the newspaper men
who ventured to criticize him. 1t
should be equally easy to recall the
personal efforts of Mr. Roosevelt
not only to censor the newspapers
which dared differ with him but
personally to damage correspond
ents who expressed dissent from
his views. No President ever de-
seconded to lower depths of per-
sonal conduct and it is not to the
credit of his more intelligent
friends that they have chosen to
ignore it.

If the situation confronting the
country were not so serious and
the coming conference so mOmen-
tous. this sort Of stuff might be
regarded as amusing. But, as
things are it is not amusing at all
and is not intended to be. Despite
Mr.. Stevenson's patronizing advice
and piJus hopes about the Geneva
conference and his routine plea for
united support of the President the
politicians conducting his renom-
ination campaign are doing their
best to bolittle Mr.. Eisenhower at
home and weaken him abroad. An
other group of dnti-Eisenhower
commentators, containing some
close personally to Mr. Stey elson,
make the charge that the President
is engaged in a campaign Of news
censorship and supp ession. Aside
from the fact that Mr.. Eisenhower
is more open, less secretivc and
more expansive in his rews CON
terences than either of his two
predecessors, the eftor, to make
tim out as favoring news suppress
sion must does not sand up The
Instances cited are of a somewhat
hysteric4l nature and do not in
volve him personally at all. Under
existing conditions everybody rec
ognizes that a certain degree of
caution is essential but certainly
no one who knows the character Of
the President would associate him
with any degree of unnecessary
censorship.
