Undaunted by smoke, fumes or
poor soil, its low plants thrive in

Senate Unit DELAYS
Action on Highway
And Benefit Bills

The Senate Finance Committee
has postponed final action until
tomorrow on the multi billion
dollar highway and social Sc
curity bills. after making further
changes in both measures yester-
day.
In the highway bill the Sena-
tors imposed about $50 million
of additional taxes on city bus
lines by making them subject to
the one-cent increase in Federal
gasoline tax and to the new
weight tax on vehicles weighing
over $4,000 pounds. The House
had exempted city buslines from
these new taxes.
In the social security bill, the
finance comm ttee yesterday
adopted an amendment by Sena-
tor Kerr, Democrat of Okla
homa, to provide more adequate
medical care for families on
public assistance rolls : in the
States.
The committee also authorized
the Department of Health. Edu-
cation and Welfare to allocate
SIS million to the States in the
coming year for training pro-
grams to bring more skilled per-
sons into public welfare work.
Another SIS million was added to
the bill for research into welfare
and social security problems.

Washington isn't alone in its
airport quandry, but at least
places like Costa Rica and For
Imosa are doing something about

A few men qualified to discuss
these feats were in town yester-
iday-officials of the Civil Aero
Inautics Administrations far

are among the $50 men in CAA's
safety program for United States
flag air carriers abroad.
In addition, they're making
strides in international standard
lization of airways and air COM
Imunications and in some cases
training hundreds in United
States methods of traffic control
and communications.
One was Edward A. WeStlake,
chief of the Costa RIGA civil avn
alton mission, who has a pardon
able pride when he points to that
Icountry's newest airport-even if
they do grow beans in the safety
strips alongside the 250-foot-wide
Irunways.
Grass Strip Changed
When Mr.; Westlake went to
Costa Rica two years ago, the
airport was a grass strip in a
converted playing field. Today,
with strictly Costa Rican money,
the airport is on a new site with
a 7,600-foot, 26-inch thick run
way and space to run it out to

Juror Pleads Violation,
Points Up Parking Woes

This situation has existed for
some time. 1t came to a head
yesterday when a Navy Depart

overtime parking while on jury
duty.

fore Municipal Court Judge

Only rs parking spaces are
available for the more than 800
persons required to serve on juries

the District of Columbia.
AS a result, many jurors get

Thomas personal bond.
Adjustment Offered
Mr. Thomas need not have
pleaded guilty. He could have
accepted an offer by Assistant
Corporation Counsel Clark F.
King to adjust" the ticket. Mr..
King said he thought jurors who
were ticketed should be excused.
But Mr. King persuaded Mr..
Thomas to plead guilty to make
the situation known.
Most of the 26 parking spaces
available are in a triangular
space in front Of the court To-
Gated at Fourth street and John
Marshall place NV. Some spaces
are reserved along the north curb
of Constitution avenue between
Third and Fourth streets NV.
Spaces RatiOned
Because of the scarcity of
space, the available spots are
rationed. A juror can count on
free space four or five days of
the 20 days he serves on jury
duty.
II think the District should
provide space for jurors at public
Mr.. King said. 1.-The
space provided is more important
than the 5 cents the District gets
from the meters"
Traffic Director George E.
Keneipp expressed surprise when
told of the parking famine.
Il gave the court exactly as
much parking space as they said
they needed and no one has ever
asked me for more" he said. II
thought at the time when the
court was being constructed it
was a very conservative request.
If more spaces are needed, it will
be up to the Commissioners"

At the University of Maryland, hardly

banjo. A banjo enthusiast made an of

boys own and play banjos. Most started
playing in the last year. Banjo'S become

Sity boys have IAN informal group, get
together and make like Ministries just for
fun" One fraternity recently staged an
old-faShioned minstrel show, featuring
banjo.
Why have youngsters taken to the long
necked instrument that all but disappeared
for a quarter Of a century?
We asked Mr.. Colicchio, who may very
well have had something to do with the
revival himself His career dates back to
a stint with Ernie Golden's Band in the
'20S, includes work with Eddie Cantor and
Kate Smith, and banjo playing for such
recent successes as Call Me Madam" and
The Three Penny Opera"
"TV had a lot to do with the banjo
comeback" Mr.. Colicchio says. "A banjo
appears on one show. 1t clicks It's on
another show. Remember. for kids, the
instrument, the rhythm, the sounds were
brand-new. Older people liked hearing
them-but for them, 1t was nostalgia"
