The States chief executive re-
ported that highway engineers
say roads carrying 1000 or more
vehicles a day should be four
lane divided highways.
Fairfax County has eight
understood primary roads that
At in this category. The two
lane turnpike is by far the most
eligible.
Little River turnpike is one Of
Virginia's shortest primary roads.
1t stretches a shade over 10 miles
from the Alexandria city limits
at Lincolnia to beyond the town
of Fairfax.
It's Importance is best meas
ured by the roads 1t connects
not by its length.
At the Alexandria city limits,
the turnpike crosses Shirley
highway. At its western end. the
turnpike Joins Route 29-2ll.
Busy Artery
Thus, it is an important link
In through traffic to and from
the Washington area. Gasoline
trucks use it to reach the storage
depots at Alexandria. Milk trucks
use it each morning to reach the
Washington and Alexandria dair-
les. It carries apple trucks from
Frederick County. poultry from
Rockingham County. furniture
from Galax, cattle from the
States western farms-to men
ton just a few.
Passenger traffic has increased
with the coming of new subdivi-
sions in Fairfax County. The
same development has brought
w-moving cement and gravel
trucks.
When the Virginia State High
way Department took its most
recent traffic count, 1924 We
hicles were travelling over the
turnpike every "a hours between
Annandale and Fairfax. That's
more than three times the de-
sired load Gov. Stanley spoke Of.
Between Alexandria and AMMAN
dale, the count came to Hist
vehicles a day.
The counts were for the fiscal
year that ended last June 80.
A new count hasn't been taken
yet, but its a safe bet the travel
rate is much higher by now con-
sidering the way Fairfax County
refuses to stop growing.
The volume of turnpike traffic
is even more startling when
compared with travel statistics
Of wider, better known highways
In the county.
It is nearly as much as daily
travel on busy U. S. ! from
Alexandria to Gum Springs The
latest count for that stretch Of

S4.5 Billion
Aid Bill Wins
Senate Approval

The Senate approved a $4.5 bill
lion foreign aid bill after beating
down a series of efforts to slash
it and sent the measure to confer
ence.
The amount was some $40 mil
lion more than the House voted,
but about $40O million under the
$40 billion originally asked by the
Eisenhower Administration. The
bill limits the amount that may be
spent on mutual security programs,
and the battle to push it through
Congress may be fought all over
again when the bill actually appro-
priating funds comes up for action.
The vote was 50 to o. In favor
of it were 27 Democrats and the
same number of Republicans. OPP
posed were 13 Democrats and IL
Republicans.
Two Key Votes
Two key votes on proposed
amendments foretold the final &C.

"Archie Moore Is
My Pigeon" Says
Ezzard Charles

Tacoma, Wash, July 23-"Moore
is my pigeon; l can beat him every
time out" Ezzard Charles boosted
here recently.
Charles was here for a 10 round
encounter with Pat McMurty, but
seemed more interested in his de-
mand for rematches with Moore
and Tommy Hurricane" Jackson,
who whipped him twice, both times
by decision.
He said that because of previous
wins over Moore, he has "just as
good a claim as Archie "to the title
vacated by Rocky Marciano. Char
les defeated Moore times in sue
cession, the last an eight-round
knockout victory.
Regarding Jackson, Charles said
he lost the two bouts to the pranc-
ing New Yorker unnecessarily.
81 kept trying to get set to land
a knockout punch in my two fights
with Jackson, instead of just box
ing him and waiting for the right
spot" he explained. Before l
knew it, the 10 rounds were over
and he was the winner both times"

DETERMINING RANGE conditions
by comparing the difference in height
Of grasses growing within the outside
pricklypear clumps. At the U. S. Range
Livestock Experiment Station at Miles
City it's been found that on ranges in
good condition there is little difference
in the height of the grass within and
outside pricklypear clumpS. AS the con.
dition of the range becomes poorer. the
difference in height gets greater. When
the difference in height is less than 20
per cent the range can be considered in
good condition Difference greater than
20 per cent indicate a poor range The
observations are based on the fact that
animals will not usually Craze on grass
which is protected by pricklypear.

antlbodies that come into the body in
milk or other foods pass through the

Defective Driver
Is Cause Of Most

The most frequent defect in

who adds, the same situation ex-,
lists again this year!o
Some 143,773 motor vehicles
We're involved in traffic accidents
during the first six months of
1856 but a very small percent
age of them appeared to have
mechanical defects, the local A
AA leader says.
But more than half of the
drivers of the involved vehicles,
violated one or more traffic laws
at the time of the accident.
1T seems that many Ohio dri-
vers do not know the laws and
hence cannot obey them.
I'VE suggest that all drivers
obtain copies of the, digest of
Ohios traffic laws and take the
time to study them carefully.
Such a study may keep them out

Corn Picker Gets
Blame For Major
Farm Accidents

When autumn leaves start to
fall prematurely, their trouble
spots may be showing.
Spotted, discolored leaves are
the most noticeable symptoms of
tree diseases such as leaf blight,
rust fungi and black spot. These
and similar ailments have reach
ed the epidemic stage in many
sections of the country due to
heavy summer rainfall favorable
to fungous growth.
While not serious in the early
stages, leaf infections weaken
their victims and will cause pro-
gressively more damage year af-
ter year if the condition isn't COR
rected.
Home owners, therefore, are
advised to check fallen leaves for
disease symptoms. When spots
are spotted, the leaves should be
burned Immediately.
Don't save spotted leaves for
mulch piles. That could be like
building a Pandora's box of po-
tential tree ailments.
To restore disease-weakened
trees to the strength they need
to face the rigors of winter, feed
ing with a tree food high in nj
trogen content is recommended.
The health-giving meal should be
followed by several fungicide
sprays in the early spring.
