Expansion of toll roads in this
section of the Nation in the next
IL months was forecast today in
an article in the Federal Reserve
Bank of Richmond's Monthly
Review.
A substantial volume of turn
pike securities now overhang the
market, it said. But the slacken-
ing of toll road financing in early
1855 should not be interpreted
as rejecting a declining interest
in this development. the article
pointed out.
The only toll road actually
financed and built to date is the
West Virginia Turnpike COM
pleted in 1854 at a cost of $133
million, the bank report pointed
out. Maryland's General As
sembly approved a proposal
to construct a 48-mile ex-
pressway from Baltimore to
the Delaware line. Virginia S
Old Dominion Turnpike Au-
thority was established to
build toll road from north of
Richmond to south of Petersburg,
the article pointed out.
Although no date has been
set for a bond offering. North
Carolina created the Carolina
Virginia Turnpike Authority in
1853 to cooperate with Virginia's S
Coastal Turnpike Authority in
building a toll road from Vir-
ginia Beach to Nags Head" the
article declared.
Proponents of toll roads have
cited the advantage of greater
safety, savings in time, fuel and
tires. But such highways have
been criticized as diverting, traf-
fic from business establishments
and duplicating existing road
facilities, the article observed.

Of sensitivity to all art forms.
"At an early age / became

did the costume originate be-

dance, or did the dance dictate
the type Of dress necessary.
It's like the chicken or the egg
which came first?
"And being partly Of Latin
origin I have alwags felt a

The Rand survey was not only
on the right track but actually
understated the situation. Hus-
bands aren't being given the VlP
treatment at home any more, not
by a long shot.
And it's because major
changes, which social scientists
call revolutionary, are underway
right now on the domestic scene.
Traditional ideas Of a ''wife's
duties and a husbands role"
are being tossed out the window
and new ones are being substi-
tuted. Points out Mrs. Sidonie
M. Gutenberg, nationally famous
psychologist and former director
of the Child Study Association
of America:
"A new kind Of equality has
been evolving in marriage. We
are coming to feel that husband
and wife can be true companions
and that, as a team, they can
administer jointly all aspects Of
the family corporation and

effect Of this change, Mrs. Gruen-
berg concludes, IS ''the elimina-
tion from modern marriage Of
the principle that a wife must
wait hand and foot upon her
husband, or even wait upon him
at all"
Some educators were distinctly
surprised at how far this attitude
has progressed. For example.

needed you. yet In typical male
egotistic fashion we sort of
kept you down.
"But all that has changed
over the years and history has
proved that men and women
make q good team in politics" !"
In support of this view
point, the Congressman cited
his belief that zone of the
most important factors for a
successful campaign is a

and family" He knew this to
be true In his own case, he
added, with a nod toward his
wife, Mary Elizabeth, who
