Alexandra May Take
Disputed Plat for Project

A long standing squabble be-
tween the Alexandria Redevelop-
ment and Housing Authority and
Safeway Stores over a piece of
land near a low-cost housing
project appeared near an end to-
day.
The Housing Authority has
recommended to the City Coun-
Gil that the city acquire the
property bounded by First. North
Alfred, Montgomery and North
Patrick streets for extension OF
the Negro housing project.
The block originally was
planned in the project, but was
withdrawn after Safeway filed a
suit to prevent the city from ac-
quiring the portion which the
grocery chain owns. The with
drawal eliminated 46 housing
units. Only 148 Of q planned
1874 units were built.
ACTON on the housing Au-
thority's request was postponed
last night after John Y. Kerr,
executive director Of the au-
thority, asked a delay pending
completion of negotiations with
Safeway for acquisition of the
land. The Council recently
turned down a request by Safe
way for commercial coming for
part Of the property.
Curb on Solicitors
The Council asked the city at
torney to draw an ordinance
regulating door-to-door sales
men. The action was taken
after former Mayor Marshall j.
