Steel Crisis

The time schedule for con-
struction projects at three Ar
lington elementary schools has
hit a snag because of the steel

The school board last night
deferred action on bids after
learning that the lowest offers
were about twice that of budget
estimates.
For one project, a new heating
system at Marshall, the three
bids submitted ranged from
$43,50O to $54,825. The budget
estimate was $4,000.

said, whether these rulings af-
feet the balance of interest be-
tween the accused and the pub
lie. If they favor the accused
over the public or the public
over the accused, we will recon-
mend changes"
Police and prosecutors nave
commended that both the accused
and the public suffer by the
court-conceived requirements to
rush the prisoner before a COM
uniting magistrate. On the one
hand, they argue, the accused
is not held long enough for
police to determine whether he

hand, it is contended, police are
unable to question him about
his accompliceS or have him re-
construct his crime before the
compliments.
In other action, the council:

committee, under the chairman
ship of District Corrections
Director Donald Clemmer to
determine what type of con-
hnement and treatment is most
likely to result in the rehabilita-

Mr.. Hart said the group would
study the relative merits of
treatment at the Federal mar

at a penal institution or at a
not yet established narcotics

lead to recommendations for
more facilities.

The District Council of Law
Enforcement is going into court
decisions narrowing the time
police can hold a prisoner before
arraignment.
The question arose most re-
Gently in the case of Clarence
Watson, whose conviction of the
murder of Alice Taggart at
tScott's Hotel was set aside by
the United States Court of APP
Ipeals on the grounds that police
should have taken Watson for
arraignment at 9 am.
Since his written confession
was made after 9 am, the court
ruled it out.
The prosecutions request for
a rehearing in the Watson case,
or a Qualification Of the courts
decision was denied. At this
point, both police and prosecu-
tors say, they are not sure what
constitutes unreasonable de-

how far police can go in their
investigation without running
the risk Of the case being thrown
out of court.

|Workmen' Spa
Law Signed

District employers face i'm
mediate increases in cost under
the Workmen's Compensation
Law liberalizing the national
Longshoremen's and Harbor-
workers Act. The President
signed the measure yesterday.
The act raises the maximum
weekly benefits from $35 to $54
and the minimum from $12 to
$18. In addition, the waiting
period is reduced from seven to
three days, and there are other
more liberal features in the new
law.
The District workmen's COM
pensation program is tied to the
Longshoremen's Act ecause
years ago House and Senate
conferees could not agree on
the terms of the proposed Dis
trlct statute.
District employer groups had
been fighting for years for a
separate District law, so that the
rates here could be determined
solely on conditions in this area,
rather than being affected by
those on the East and West
Coasts and in the Gulf and Lake
regions.
The House District Committee
recently reported a separate Dis
trict bill but it was withdrawn
from House consideration be-
cause of opposition from labor
and other groups.
President Eisenhower also
signed yesterday a measure that
would permit more lawsuits to
be handled in the Municipal
Court instead Of in the United
States District Court for the
District of Columbia.
This bill would permit the
certiflcation from the Fedora
Court to the Municipal Court Of
casese where the award would
not exceed $4,000. The present
limit is $1,000.

Cooperation Urged
On Airport Problem
Senators Seek
AirIines' and
Agencies Aid

The Senate Appropriations
Committee today was preparing
letters to Government officials
and commercial airlines urging
full cooperation in trying out
one or more of the suggested
alternatives to the construction
of a $50-million second airport
for Washington at Burke in
Fairfax County, Va.
The letters are being sent
under the name of Chairman
Hayden. Democrat of Arizona.
A restudy of the whole prob.
lem of the overcrowded WASH
ington airport was ordered a
few days ago when the commit
tee held up action until next
January on the request of the
Commerce Department and
President Eisenhower for a grant
Iof $34.7 million to reactivate the
Burke airport project.
Senator Holland, Democrat of
Florida, named chairman of the
special inquiry group, said it was
his earnest hope that by next
January decisions could be
reached on one or more of the
suggested alternatives so the
committee would be in position
to make a sound report as to
what should be done.
Friendship Trial Urged
One of the key alternatives Is
the use of Friendship Interna-
Itional Airport, 10 miles this side
of Baltimore.
Senior Holland said letters
were being sent to the Civil
Aeronautics Administration and
the airlines urging their Coop
Grafton in making a trial of the
use of Friendship.
Senator Holland said that
while he had voted against an
appropriation now to reopen the
Burke proposal he was not yet
committed either for or against
4 it. He said he felt it was neces-
Sary to explore the alternatives.
1t was announced today that
members of the Appropriations
Committee serving with him on
the special subcommittee are
Democratic Senators Magnuson
of Washington, who also is
chairman of the Senate Inter-
state and Foreign Commerce
Committee which has demanded
action on the Burke project and
Stennis of Mississippi, and Re-
publican Senators Smith of
Maine and Potter of Michigan.
Senator Holland said the spe-
cial committee would hold hear
ingS and conferences before the
next Congress meets in January.
The time of the hearings has not
yet been set.
Alternatives Suggested
Suggested alternatives to the
building of the Burke Airport
on which about 81 million has
been spent for acquisition of
land, include the following:
Removal from the Washington
Airport of the Military Air Trans
port Services; removal of the
Boiling Field and the Anacostia
Air Station from the Potomac
River area opposite the Washing
ton Airport, and possibility of the
use OF a portion of the Andrews
Field Air Base for commercial
airline flights.
He asked for a considered
judgment devoid of emotion"
on the part of everyone. He said
he hoped that by January a
course could be charted that
would avoid another six years de-
lay. Everyone familiar with the
problem, he said, knows that
there must be enlarged facilities
to handle the mounting air traf-
flc in Washington.
He said there must be change
in the "obdurate attitude" here
Itofore displayed by officials Of
the Government agencies and the
commercial airlines against try
\ ing out some of the possible al.
derivatives.
