Joined the enlarged one-package fund,
but Red Cross participation has been
regarded as essential to full public
support of the plan. The pressure on
various health-fund organizations to sign
up for the combined campaign next fall
is sure to increase, as result of the Red
Cross step.
Under the new arrangement, the Red
Cross will team up with the Chest
agencies in an area wide drive for an
expanded goal, designed to cover the
needs of all members of the fund AS has
been the practice in other cities where
united funds are operating, the Red Cross
will be permitted to continue it's annual
membership campaigns and to solicit
special funds for victims of unforeseen
disasters, such as floods or hurricanes.
All regular money-raising activities,
however, will be co-ordinated with the

Such teamwork, we are convinced,
will benefit all the agencies concerned.
And it will be welcomed by contributors
who have become fed up with the
repetitious and often overlapping appeals

More Travel at Less Cost

Two American tranS-Ocean airlineS-
Pan American World Always and Trans
World AirlineS-have announced plans to
petition for lower Atlantic fares. Their
proposals have been placed before a traf-
flc conference of the International Air
Transport Association meeting in Cannes
this week and will require ratification of
that body as we'll as of the Civil Aero
nauticS Board. The proposals differ, as
these two airlineS usually do in their
competitive relationship. Foreign trans
Atlantic carriers = also competitive =
oppose lower rate schedules as they have
done in the past. But there is merit
in the principle OF lowering fares to en-
courage mass travel-and it is almost
inevitable that it will happen eventually
In one form or another
Pan Americans plan, in brief, con-
templates thrift class air service to
supplement present first class and tourist
flights. Luxury, but not safety, would be
sacrificed in fitting planes to carry larger
payloadS without the frills and extras
now provided. TWA approaches the OBJ
jective from different direction-a Is
day round trip package calculated to
conform to the conventional American
two-week vacation. The bargain. in
terms of new low rate, would be avail
able throughout the year on present
tourist service flights
1t is not necessary to pass judgment
on the relative merits of the two plans
In order to indorse the basic idea of
bringing transatlantic travel within
reach of more people. Tourists, either
Americans in Europe or Europeans in
America, mean much more than an ex-
change of currency in their travels. 1t
is more than mere idealism to believe
they mean also an exchange of informa-
ton and understandings the long run
of greater potential value than the money
involved.

A Community Need

Citizens of Southeast Washington
and adjacent Maryland communities are
showing commendable determination to
provide for a serious need in their area
a community hospital. They hope,
through combination of private enter
prise and Federal subsidy, to build a mod
ern hospital in location convenient to
all Of the Southeast and Southern Prince
Georges residents.
Funds already have been contributed
toward the project by individuals, busi-
ness firms and civic and trade organiza-
tons. To this building fund will be added
any money available under the amended
District Hospital Center Act and the Ma
tional Hill-Burton Act. Both acts author
lie Federal funds for hospital construc-
ton on a matching basis. Thus, while
the Southeast undertaking has long way
to go, 1t merits wholehearted public
support. - i

Conden1ninq a Home

1t seems to us that the agitation
against the Court of Appeals decision in
the case of the condemnation of Mrs.
Mayme j. Riley's home is going off on an
irrelevant tangent
Mrs. Riley bought her home in 1851.
The cost, with Improvements she made,
was about $4,000. Three years later it
was seized and then condemned for ST 900
about $4,000 less than Mrs. Riley's total
COST The only pertinent question is
whether the $1,000 award represented the
fair market value of the home.
Appellate Judges Prettyman and
Miller did not pass specifically on this
question. Instead, they set the condem-
nation judgment aside and sent the case
back to the District Court for further
proceedings including a new trial if
necessary They pointed out, however,
that the Government appraisers, in fixing
the value of Mrs. Riley'S home, had dis
regarded the private sale in 1851 of a
comparable adjoining home for $4,000;
had referred to comparable sales" of
other houses without any explanation,
and had testified concerning reproduction
NOoV WACAAO0O CAPAdIIdOlOIl VI OuPROI
data. In these circumstances, the
appellate court said, Mrs. Rileys request
for new trial in the District Court
should not have been denied without "a
searching scrutiny (of) an award so
much less than her purchase price
The Department of Justice is being
urged to seek review of this decision by
the full bench of the Court of Appeals
And in this connection it is being said
that the Riley decision, if it stands, will
increase the difficulty and the cost of the
Southwest redevelopment project. This
may be true, but it seems to us that it is
an irrelevant consideration.
If the Department of Justice thinks
that the appellate decision, as a matter
of law, was erroneous, then, of course, it
would be justified in asking for a rehear-
ing by the full bench. But this should
turn on the question of whether the
Government, in taking Mrs. RileyS home,
was prepared to pay her its fair value No
agency of the Government should be in
the business of trying to pay a home
owner less than fair value merely because
a higher condemnation award might
boost the cost of some redevelopment
program.

Clearing the Highways

Congress is near final approval of a
long-term and much-needed program for
moderniZation of the Nations highway
system. With Senate passage of its bill,
the project now goes to conference with
the House. Fortunately, however, despite
differences between the House and Senate
legislation. there appears to be adequate
room for compromise, and leadership in
both branches and both parties is united
in the determination to get the big job
under way this year.
major part of the program
contemplates the building of 40,0O0-mile
interstate system that would link vir-
tually every large and medium sized city
across the continent. Construction would
be spread over Is years and would be
financed by Federal grants totalling about
S25 billion-a sum to be raised primarily
through new and increased highway-uSer
taxes. The formula to be used in
apportioning the grants represents the
principal difference between House and
Senate. The House favorS ALLEGATION on
basis of need, meaning in this instance
the actual mileage of eXpreSSway to be
built in each State in order to create a
really effective network The Senate
adheres to the present Federal aid formula
which weights each States share on a
basis of population, area and existing
rural road mileage. One suggested
compromise, appearing to have merit,
would start the program on the Senate
terms but would shift it later to guarantee
that important links in the network
would not be left unfinished in sparsely
populated States.
The need for modernization and
extension of the national highway system
has become clear in recent years The
rapid increase in the country's population,
the development of new industries and
the shifting of others have made the road
network inadequate in many areas and
dangerously overloaded in Others For
defense reasons, as we'll as for economic
and safety considerations, a building
program of this kind has become
essential. Federal and State expenditures
may exceed $50 billion before the job is
finished, but it is difficult to imagine a
public works undertaking that could
promise greater return to the national
welfare.
