Bridge Issue
Near Windup

Congress may complete action
early this week on a bill making
way for appropriation Of funds
to build the Jones Point Bridge.
The House-passed the measure,
now on the Senate calendar, may
be called up for a vote on the
floor tomorrow.
Approved unanimously by the
Senate District Committee, the
bill would transfer from the In
terror Department to the Com
merce Departments Bureau of
Public Roads the job of bridge
construction.
AS soon as this bill becomes
law. as its proponents anticipate.
lit would unlock the door which
so far has blocked appropriations
on both sides of Capitol Hill.
Two different funds were
knocked out of appropriation
bills because of the transfer
measure. From the Interior De-
Ipartment appropriation bill the
item of $13.8 million was deleted
because the measure transferring
jurisdiction from Interior to
Commerce Departments was
pending.
An item of 100000 deleted by
the House from the second sup
Elemental appropriation bill and
restored by the Senate was elm
mated from the measure by
House Senate conference yes
terday. This money was to pur-
chase land on the Maryland
shore on which to seat that end
of the Potomac River span.
Two possibilities for appro-
priation of these two different
funds are foreseen by friends
of the bridge. They could 'oe

Arlington Will Build
New Disposal Stotion

Arlington officials yesterday
took the final step toward COM
plete primary treatment Of
county sewage and the first step
toward providing secondary
treatment facilities.
The County Board authorized
spending of $31. 449 for construc-
ton of a sewage ejector station
in RoSslyn near Key Bridge.
A. T. Lundberg, county man
ager, said the station will enable
Arlington to give primary treat
ment to the last "five-tenths of
I per cent" of sewage before it
is dumped into the Potomac
River.
The board also authorized pur-
chase of two tracts of land at
South Glebe road and South
Eads street which will be used
to house secondary sewage treat
ment facilities in the future.
The tracts are across South
Glebe road from the primary
treatment facilities.
Arlington now has no Sec
Iondary treatment facilities. 1t
has been estimated that the
county can build facilities for
1913 million to give secondary
treatment up to the year 1885.
No funds are available for this
construction now.
Special Election Asked
The board also requested the
Arlington Circuit Court to order
"a special election on a proposed

Smith Chides Virginions
For 81 Repub|iconism
By ALEX R. PRESTON
star stan Correspondent

FREDERICKSBURG, Va, May
12.-Representative Smith, in
accepting denomination at the
9th District Democratic Con-
vention today reprimanded Vir-
ginians for having put the State
in the Eisenhower column four
years ago and pleaded for their
return to the Democratic Party.
In another action, the conven-
ton recommended that the Vir-
GINA delegates to Chicago work
for the nomination of Adlai Ste
venson for President and for
mer Gov. John S. Battle of Char
lottesville for Vice President.
Also approved was a resolu-
ton that took strong slap at
the Supreme Court for its school
segregation decision and stated
that the court "as presently con-
stituted cannot be relied upon to
exercise any self restraint" in
matters dealing with States
rights"
The 73-year-old Mr.. Smith
was nominated by State Sena-
tor Robert Y. Button of Gull
pepper.
Gave u. s. Thomas jefferson
In response, Mr.. Smith re-
called that his district of 20
counties and two cities furnished
the nation Thomas jefferson,
founder of the Democratic Party.
II remember the 1923 Presi-
dental campaign and more re-
Gently the 1852 campaign when
this state was in the Republican
column" Mr.. Smith said. I'D
like to express not only the hope
but the advice that in the coming
campaign we all return to the
'honored house of our fathers. "
He reminded his Democratic
audience that after Herbert Hoo
ver's election in 1928 there en-
sued four years of the greatest
and NEST disheartening depres-
sion we've ever SEEN"
Then he came closer to the real
issue that divided Virginia Dem
locrats four years ago when Sem
Iator Byrd, head of the state par
ty organization and other leaders
declined to indorse Mr.. Steven
son.
I'm 1852 and under great
lprovocation which l shared to
some degree" Mr.. Smith said,
Virginia again found itself in
the Republican column. Business,
labor and industry have enjoyed
unparalleled prosperity but the
farmer has suffered the greatest
depression since the last Re-
publican administration"
President Assailed
Mr.. Smith said President
Eisenhower, had repudiated and
forgotten" his 1852 campaign
promises to safeguard State
rights"

YUCOSLAYIA WILL SIDE WITH

ments reached during the Yugo-

Russia.
Would Admit Red China
The communique on relations
between the two governments ex-
pressed their agreement that ID
Communist China should be ad-
mitted to the United Nations, (2)
that Germany should be united
through negotiation rather than
the elections which the West has
advocated, and Cd that Formosa
should be handed over to Red
China.
It also said both governments
looked forward to future personal
contacts between them.
Khukov's statement came after
Tito had awarded him Yugoslav-
las highest decoration, the Order
of Freedom, for his World War II
command of Soviet armed forces
which Tito said led to "the liberia
ton of Yugoslavia from the Fas-
cist invaders"
