Water Supply Ample

Because of what Joseph T. SINCE

ment of Geology, Mines and Water
Resources terms much writing
about water resources and the UNI

water resources that have been
aroused, he has prepared a six

A portion of the report is given

Maryland exceeds 40 inches. The
land area is 1887 square miles.

overfills the groundwater reser-

Most intensely concentrated use
of water is in Baltimore City where
consumption in 1854 was 62 billion

He declared there was only one
way by which adequate supplies
of surface water can be made
available for irrigation and that is
to impound the required quantity
in reservoirs when the stream flow
is high and water is running to
waste.
Average annual stream flow is
equivalent to more than l6 inches
over the entire watershed of a
stream whereas the needs are about
8 inches for the acreage to be ir-
rigated. Problem is an economic
problem of the cost of storing the
water and not one of inadequacy

Senate Cloakroom
By ]. GLENN BEALL
United States Senator from
Maryland

If some cartoonist can find a
way to add a "fifty-mission look"
to his traditional drawing of a
Senator's hat, I'll be the first to
volunteer to be caricatured.
The expression fifty mission
look first came into widespread
usage to describe the look of air
mems headgear after it had been
worn on numerous flights, but in
broader sense, the phrase could
now be applied quite aptly to the
general appearance of several of
us in the Maryland delegation to
Congress.
As veterans of almost continuous
hassles surrounding the Free
States airfields, we are indeed de-
veloping a sort of battle-worn look
of our own. But we still intend to
win.
Three Airports
Our longest mission has been the
six-year task of obtaining ade-
quate service for Friendship Inter-
national Airport
More recently, another squabble
developed surrounding the pro-
posed site for an airfield for the
United States Naval Academy.
And almost as if our aviation
problems were determined to fol-
low the superstition that troubles
come in threes, the old College
Park airport got into the act by
being mentioned as a possible To-
cation for the new Smithsonian air
museum.
Friendship Ready and Willing
The Friendship controversy,
which has lasted the longest, is
also the most bitter.
The field is one of the seven in
stallations in the entire nation
where large, jet airliners can be
accommodated safely, it is ready
and willing to take its rightful
place as an international air-hub
for the Baltimore-Washington area,
and it is being eyed eagerly as a
possible major terminal by nu-
merouS far-sighted airlines.
Burke Costly and Unsafe
Despite Friendships numerous
advantages, however, certain
clique in the Executive Depart
ment seems determined to overlook
it in favor of plan to construct
a S5O,OOOOOO air facility at Burke,
Virginia
The main argument advanced by
the Burke advocates is that an air
port there would save fifteen to
twenty minutes of ground-travel
time to and from the Capital.
l, for one, refuse TO admit that
quarter of an hour can justify
multi-million dollar expenditure
for an airfield which would only
add to the crowded traffic already
in the skies over Washington.
