the United States and that this country is
sometimes too content to build strong de-
fensive forces while assuming that the
American way Of life il understood by
peoples Of other countries
On the contrary, Mr. Hearst believes
the American way Of life is not 70 well
understood by many millions Of peoples
and that Communist propaganda, and the
Communist effort to sell the Russian way

he believes we could nullify this progress

Gov. Stanley Sees
Delay in Solving
Seven Corners Jam
By Alex R. Preston

Gov. Stanley of Virginia looks
upon the Seven Corners area as
"the most congested intersec-
ton" in the State, but held out
little hope for immediate relief
when he addressed a Fairfax
County Chamber of Commerce
banquet last night.
The long-range Improvements
there, he said, will cost SIG mil
lion. He said the State already
had set aside some money for
preliminary planning there and
indicated that a similar amount
may be forthcoming soon.
The State Highway Commits
sion is meeting in Richmond to-
day and is expected to announce
tentative primary highway al
locations.
But in referring to both the
Seven Corners and proposed
Jones Point Bridge approach
projects, the Governor empha-
sized the preliminary" nature of
Virginia's endeavors up to now.
He prefaced his remarks on
this sore subject by saying the
State recognizes the highway
needs of the Washington Met
ropoiitan Area, but it boils down
to the old question of funds.
In the last three years, he
said. the Arlington-Fairfax area
has obtained more than $4.2
million out of $8.2 million al

the tax in his county. The

lotted the entire Culpeper con-
struction district for major
highway improvements.
II think can say without
contradiction" he declared,
that it (Seyen Corners) is the
most congested intersection In
Virginia where relief has not
been afforded"
Virginia would be able to pro-
coed faster on its roads program,
he said. if the Federal Govern
ment abandoned the motor fuel
tax field, For example, the State
paid some $40 million in Fed
eral gasoline taxes last year but
got back only $11 million, the
Governor said.

firing President Bennett w.

400 members in a little over q
year.

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. "a (Spe-

of liquor licenses in the Prince
Georges section of Takoma Park
will be introduced in the House
of Delegates before the bill dead

The Prince Georges delegation
early today had not yet decided
whether it would introduce the
measure, but Delegates Hervey
G. Machen and Carlton R.
Sickles, both Democrats, said
they would put the bill in the
hopper.
Mr.. Machen said he had been
advised by DR.. Carl Everstine,
director of the Department of
Legislative Reference, that the
bill would not be in conflict with
the municipal home rule bill.
Mr.. Sickles earlier had received
an informal opinion from the
Attorney Generals Office that a
conflict would exist and that Ia

With the deadline tomorrow
for filing bills, both delegations
have taken the first step in full

County Council Asked to Aid
In Recruiting New Teachers

According to DR.. Forbes H.
Norris, county school superin-
tendent, an increase of over 5000
pupils is expected in county
schools next fall, necessitating
an additional go teachers. In
addition, he said, the school ad-
ministration will have to find
about $50 more teachers as re-
placements.
The school superintendent said
the teacher recruitment problem
IS becoming more difficult each
year and is Critical now"
In recent months, county
school officials have asked that
teacher salary changes be de-
cided in April to aid in recruit
ment. In the new budget, Supt.
Norris has requested approval
of salary increment adjustments
that would give teachers salary
increases not exceeding 1925.
