parking and transportation. They

tegration.
Tendency to Pessimism
Insofar as the Districts future
is concerned, there is tendency
in some quarters toward pessi-
mism. The fear is expressed that
heavy concentration of people in
the surrounding residential areas
will lead to downtown stagnation.
The reasoning is based on the
fact that many suburban house
wives find it more convenient to
shop in the new developments
than to battle city traffic con-
gestion and parking.
Not everyone, however, is pes
simistic. A substantial element
of businessmen and civic leaders
are confident the local problem
can be licked.
One person who speaks with
considerable authority because of
his experience as the former En-
gineer Commissioner here is
Maj. Gen. Louis w. Prentiss.
Reasons for Moving
u have the personal thought, I"
he said, that people are moving
out primarily in order to get
away from something rather
than to get something.
often, what they find is con-
ditions that are no better. They
will only go so far away. They
have to consider the time and
transportation to get from home
to their jobs and back again.
when they get there, they
ask themselves, what do they
have?"
Gen. Prentiss, now command
ing officer at Fort Belvoir, be-
lieves the time is approaching
when redevelopment of many
old sections of the District will
be economically feasible for in
vestors. Then. he says, people
will begin leap-frogging back
into the city to enjoy the con-
venience of proximity to their
work.
The metropolitan transition
constitutes the new civic chal-
lenge. It is going to require citi-
zens in all the communities to
think tall.

LONDON, Mar. 1s.-Britain

Washington consulted the
Churchill government about re-

A spokesman told newSmen
British objections were similar to
those raised against making pub

participants.
Sounded on Potsdam Record
The foreign Office said the
United States State Department
sounded out Britain on the Pots
dam record before its decision
to publish the Yalta papers.
The release in Washington of
the secret account of the ear
lier l945 Yalta meeting between
Sir Winston. Mr.. Roosevelt and
Stain brought angry official and
press reactions in Britain. Re-
ports from Washington said the
worldwide furore over the Yalta
papers has prompted Washing

Warning Factions
In Stock Probe Agree
Inquiry Is 'FizzIe'
BY the Associated Press

The warning factions in the
Senate stock market inquiry
voiced agreement on two things
today: That the inquiry is SOME
thing of a fizzle and that politics
is responsible.
Each side blamed the other
for injecting politics into the
public hearings, now in recess
for the week end, They resume
Monday with Board Chairman
Benjamin Fairless of the United
States Steel Corp. as the witness.
Chairman Fulbright of the
Senate Banking Committee told
reporters he has no doubt the
friendly study" of market con-
ditions will fall short of the
hopes he had for ito inform
the country about stock market
conditions and maybe shore up
some weaknesses.
Will Be No Change.
Senator Fulbright said the
Eisenhower administration has
made it plain there will be no
change in its economic policies
even if the inquiry points to a
need for change.
The Arkansas Senator said
public reaction to the inquiry
undoubtedly will be dampened,
too, by the fact that the Re-
publicans have pinned a partisan
label on IT.
II wouldn't say the'inquify has
been wrecked" Senator Fulbright
said, but its effectiveness GER
tainly has been diminished by
the injection of partisan poll
tics"
The committees ranking Re-
publican, Senator Capehart.
of Indiana, took an even
more bearish view of the
inquiry. He said it has done no
good, probably has done harm by
soaring investors unnecessarily.

Sees No Need
Senator Capehart said he saw
no need for any inquiry into the
stock market unless the object
was to look for rigging or
other crooked work. And he said
no hint of any such activities has
turned up since the inquiry

Carolina Coast
Counts DAMAGE

WILMINGTON. N. G.. Aug. 13
(PD.-Carolina coastal residents
today counted up millions of dol
lars in property damage from
Hurricane Connie. But there
were no reports of death or seri-
Gus injury.
Gov. Luther Hodges Of North
Carolina conferred with a spe-
cial task force" of State and
civil defense officials as the huge
task of assessing damage and
cleaning up the beaches con-
tinued.
In both North Carolina and
South Carolina it was obvious
that Connie was far less destruc-
tive than last October's Hurri-
cane Hazel, which followed
roughly the same path.
Jack Farrell. executive secre-
tary Of the Southeastern North
Carolina Beach Association, es-
timated that storm damage in
the area from SwanSboro, N. c..
about IS miles below Morehead
City, to the South Carolina
border would total between 81
million and $40 million.
An official estimate of Hurri-
cane Hazel damage from Atlantic
Beach, N. c., north of Swans
boro near Morehead City, to the
South Carolina border was 500
million.
Mr.. Farrell was surveying
damage in the lower part Of
North Carolina at the request Of
Gov. Hodges. The Governor will
forward the estimate to Presi-
dent Eisenhower. along with a
request that the area be declared
eligible for Federal disaster re-
lief.

olina civil defense director, es-
timated property damage in the

Army Is Making
Hurricane Study
To Cost ST Million

The Army Corps of Engineers
is beginning a 81 million study
of the behavior of hurricanes.

Chief of Engineers, said the sur.
vey. authorized by Congress after
last years disastrous hurricane
Hazel, would be made in CO.
operation with the United States
Weather Bureau and other Fed
eral agencies.
The engineers will be primari-
ly concerned with damage along
the Atlantic and southern coasts
and with rivers and harbors.
They will consider how break
waters, seawalls, dikes, dams and
other structures might possibly
avert or lessen damage.
Gen. Sturgis said he has in
structed Army engineers in the
five engineer divisions that cover
the Atlantic Seaboard and south
ern coastline to begin gathering
information that will result from
the present storm. He has called
"a meeting in Washington for
August II of representatives
from these divisions.
