Troubleh encountered in the

the Washington area we're re-
ported today to threaten delay
in the work by two or three
months beyond the target date
Of next october.
Additional funds my also be
needed. The sum of $400, 900
has been appropriated so far for
the survey.
These developments were re-
ported at a Joint meeting of the
National Capital Planning Com
mission and the National Capital

In discussion IL was again
urged that a sketch Of current
and projected highways serving
the area show a highway down
Rock Greek Park.

Donald E. Gingery Of Chevy
Chase. a member OF the regional
council. said the Rock Creek
highway had been held practical
from a nengineering standpoint.
He added that he abhorred hid

cause they are unpopular"
He said he believed the high
way would save millions Of dol
lars. Referring TO a sketch of
various highways in the area.
Mr.. Gingery said. I'VE have got

1t was brought out that the Dis

Mr.. Owen and Thomas Vint,

Permits Interchange
The owen report said this
would require little or no prop
erty from Potomac Plaza and
would leave GNU intact. In adj
dition, planning commission
staff men argued, it would
permit the loop expressway to
connect with K street west Of
Washington Circle in a full
traffic interchange. One of their
complaints of the District plan
lis that its route, passing through
Washington Circle, would not
permit an east-west underpaSs

Gen. Lane, in a dissenting re.
port to the Owen committee pro.

route was suggested by the city's
lconsultants as the most feasible
after highly detailed and ex-
lpensive studies.
For that reason, he argued,
if the planning commission isn't
happy with the present route. it
should ask the District to rehire
the consultants for a study that
might take six months.

sented to the planners justified

Psychopathic Clinic. which ex-
amines persons referred from

He told the so District offi-
Gals. members of traffic safety

DR.. Canty said the clinic rec

DR.. CAVITY said problem driv-

Our Inougurotions
Just Kept Growing
BY JACK JONAS

The no-left-turn sign is up
on Pennsylvania avenue at
West Executive avenue, and
the East Capitol street en-
trance to the Capitol is
barred.
The inaugural ball commit
tees are busy scanning guest
lists and Congressman are
being pestered for tickets in
the stands. But don't blame
Thomas Jefferson. the first
man to be inaugurated Pres
ident in ceremonies at Wash
ington. He didn't start it.
There were no bleachers, no
parades, no elaborate prepare
tions or ceremonies for that
first Inauguration here March
4, 1901.
jefferson, a man of demo-
cratic tastes, walked the short
distance from Conrad's Board
ing House to the Capitol. The
ceremonies were in the Sem
ate Chamberlain a small
place. One thousand people
watched.
The President-elect, sworn
in by Chief Justice Marshall,
delivered his inaugural adj
dress, then walked back to
his lodging-where, at dinner
time, he took his accustomed
seat at the foot of the long
table which accommodated
the 80 boarders.
Jefferson's voice was so low
when he gave his address
that few were able to hear
him. There was, therefore,
a heavy sale of the National
Intelligencer outside the Cap
itol when the ceremonies
broke up. Jefferson earlier
had given copy of his speech
to his good friend, Samuel
Harrison Smith, Intelligencer
editor.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-12-13

SINCE WE CAN'T blame all
this hoopla on Jefferson, how
about Monroe?
He was the first President
to brave the outdoors for the
inauguration here. The orig
inal Inauguration - that of
George Washington in New
York-had been an open-air
affair, but Monroe'S was the
first open-air event of its kind
in the new Federal City.
Tickets for seats at the in
auguration in 1917 were as
hard to come by as tickets to
the inaugural ball of 1856.
Everybody and his brother
wanted one, and everybody,
obviously, couldn't crowd into
the tiny Senate chamber.
The biggest argument was
between the Senate and the
House. The Senate said it
ought to have more tickets to
hand around because it was
more important than the
House. The House would never
admit this, and anyway there
were more Representatives
than Senators, they said, to
give out tickets, and more
ticketlesS friends to be made
unhappy.
Both chambers leaped joy
fully at the idea Of going out
doors, where there was room
for everybody.
And so a platform was put
up under the Capitol's unfin-
iShed portico. There, on a
balmy March 4, Monroe made
his address to the biggest
gathering which had up to
then attended an Inaugural
ton.

fathers apparently weren't as
rugged as history tries to con-
vince us they were. Because
four years later they were
right back inside for Mon
roe's second inaugural. The
reason: 1t was a snowy,
blustery day.
Apparently the real wing
dings got under way with
JackSon'S inaugural in 1929.
That was the first to be held
at the East Portico OF the
Capitol. Shortly before it
took place, Daniel Webster
wrote:
Il never saw such a crowd.
Persons have come five hun
bred miles to see General
Jackson. and they really seem
to think that the country is
rescued from some dreadful
danger"
There we're 10000 on hand
for that inaugural at the
Capitol. Afterward, there
was an impromptu parade.
when Gen. Jackson
mounted his horse and began
the ride TO the White House,
the throng surged up Penn
Sylvsnia avenue behind him,
pushing and showing. vying to
be among the first inside the
White House.
From then, on it's become
bigger and bigger.
