By GEORGE BEVERIDGE
Star staff Correspondent

NEW YUM, OCC. Z3.-A Spe-
cific site and design recommen-
dation for Washington's pro-
posed civic auditorium and cul-
tural center will be made next
month to the 21-member District
of Columbia Auditorium Com
mission.
The recommendation will
come from the commissions ma
tional planning board, an adj
visory group made up of several
of the Nations leading archi-
tectural and engineering firms,

meeting here yesterday.
After the six-hour, closed-door
session. Commission Chairman
Agnes E. Meyer said a full COM
mission meeting will be held in
Washington on November 19 OF

decisions were reached yester-
day on the site question.

other sources. however. while
refusing to disclose the decision
said the advisers were agreed on
a proposed location. The choice
repeatedly is between:
l. A plaza" site in the South
west redevelopment area planned
by the Zeckendorf real estate
firm. lying east of Tenth street
between D and E streets S.W
This area, officials of the Geek
endorf firm said, would have
about Is acres of disable space
plus parking facilities on a lower
level for about $500 cars.
2. The Foggy Bottom region
south of Virginia avenue NV.
between Twenty-Third street
and the Potomac River.
1t appeared from comments Of
the planning advisers that the
Foggy Bottom site would not be
considered fully effective unless
the route of the Districts pro.
posed inner loop" expressway
is changed. AS now planned
the road would cut through par
of the area being studied by thu
auditorium group.

THE MAN before the bar
of justice on this occasion
seemed to be, as the judge
said, a substantial citizen.
The facts, the policeman re-
lated, were essentially these:
The man had been travelling
33 miles an hour in a IS
mile-an-hour zone beneath a
viaduct at $3.50 o'clock in the
morning. The policeman had
given him a ticket.
1t was dark, the man ex-
planned, and he hadn't noticed
he was going that fast.
Well, the judge said, that's
the trouble with a lot of peo-
ple-they don't notice the
things they're supposed to
watch. The man ought to
have some lights in his car so
he could see what was going
on, the judge said, scoldingly.
Why did he think they put
speedometers on automobiles?
The man said he didn't in
tend to
A good many people don't
intend to do something
they're not supposed to do,
the judge interrupted, but
that's not much of an excuse.
You could almost hear his
thoughts about that road
that's paved with good inten-
tionS.
There were these cars, the
man went on, parked right
near the entrance to the via
duct, and he was trying to
get around them in a hurry
before any cars came the
other way.
That's all the more reason
he ought to be going slow, the
judge told him, If there were
hazards like that.
Another thing, the man
said-by this time his fingers
we're drumming the edge of
the Tablet was so dark he
didn't see the sign that said
this was a 15-mile -an-hour
zone
He knew the speed limit in
the District is Is miles an
hour, didn't he? And he was
going SO miles an hour. wasn't
he?
Well, yes, the man admitted
in answer to the judges queS-
tions, he was going a little
fast, but he didn't intend
to
There we go again, the
judge said sternly. Intentions
He fined the man IS, told
him to sin no more, and called
for the next case.

AN ASSEMBLY LINE

AN ASSEMBLY LINE
that's what Traffic Court is
like most of the time, except
when the judge breaks in to-
admonish an Grant driver
He'd like to lecture them all,
but he doesn't have time.
Mostly the policeman states
his side Of the case, glibly
from practice, and the motor
ist his, more hesitant and un-
practiced.
And the judge passes sem
tence. The lettered and inlet
tered mingle there before
him, in court because they
didn't notice the speedometer,
or didn't see the red light in
time. Sometimes they don't
care. and the Judge is sternest
Of all with these.

Sition" in a toy elephant.
4. Cancelled a luncheon in the

5. Declared that Adlai Ste

One Speaks English
The three are L. N. Solovev,
a deputy of the Supreme Soviet
and chairman of the All-Union
Central Council of Trade I'm
ions; v. L. Kudryavtsev, jour-
nalist and member of the edi-
torial board of Izvestia, and M.
l. Rubenstein. professor of eco
Monies and political science at
the USSR Academy of Science.
Although Mr.. Solovev is head
Of the delegation. the swarm of
reporters and photographers
pressing around the group as it
toured local campaign headquar-
tiers soon focused on Mr.. Ruben
stein. He is the only one who
speaks English, and he speaks
at the drop of a hint.
A big, wild-haired man with
heavy brows and a polite man.
ner, Mr.. Rubenstein grinned his
way through a deluge of ques-
tons. each grin exposing a half
dozen glittering gold teeth.
4 Asked if the group had COM
Portable rooms at the Sheraton
Park Hotel, Mr.. RubenStein
smiled and said, Eyes, very. We
saw ourselves on television last
night. !"
Hear Political Lectures
I Mr.. Solovev wore a neat dou-
ble-breasted suit. His comrades
were both in slightly rumpled
single-breasted styles. Each had
on conservative figured silk tie
and there wasn't a piece of jew
elry among them.
Visiting the Republican and
Democratic National Committees
and the Eisenhower and Steven
son volunteer headquarters, the
three heard little lectures on
party politics and risked pneu-
monia. BY the time they came
out of each building, they were
sweating from the hot crush OF
curious workers, inquisitive re-
porters and blazing camera
lights. Then they walked into
cool air on the street.
Mr.. Rubenstein said Wash
.ington is much warmer than
Moscow. The leaves have al
ready fallen there and it is quite
cold. But this air here is toe
moist. "
At Democratic headquarters. a
spokesman explained that the
coming election will be close
and that just proves the virtue
of the tWO-party system.
One Name on Ballot
Mr.. Rubenstein was asked
about Russian elections. you
have only one name on the bal
lot, don't you?"
yes he said, but you can
strike 1t out and write in an
other name" There was a pause
1T rarely happens" he said
smiling.
Gould I go to Russia and
start a second party?' he was
asked.
Legally. yes" Mr.. Rubensteir
said. But actually, you would
get no masses. There is little
antagonism in Russia. The
Communist Party represents not
one class, but the people as a
unit
