Shelters Urged
In New Homes

Bomb shelters should be in
cluded in plans for new home
construction. a group Of archi-
tects from Montgomery and
Prince Georges Counties were
advised yesterday.
. The plea was made by George
Rothrock. official Of the Federal
Civil Defense Administration,
during a luncheon meeting of
the Potomac Valley Chapter of
Maryland of the American
Institute of Architects.
Speaking at the Colesville
road Hot Shoppe in Silver
Spring, Mr.. Rothrock said it
would be cheaper to provide the
shelters when the houses are
built rather than to wait until
after they are finished. Initial
installation. he said. would cost
about $500 compared to about
81 900 afterward.
The speaker pointed out that
attack by enemy bombers might
mean two to six hours advance
warning and permit safe adj
vance evacuation of Washington
and the suburbs. He added,
however, that the Russians now
are believe dto have intercon-
tinental ballistic missiles and
also might be able to shell in
land cities from submarines, with
only 10 to Commute warnings
being possible.
Mr.. Rothrock told the archi-
tects that most European coun-
tries now require bomb shelters
in new construction. He said
Sweden is an outstanding
example.

Protests Indicate Defeat
Of Andrews Field Plan

An avalanche of protests made
clear today that the administra-

to open Andrews Air Force Base
TO commercial aircraft as we'll as

= With powerful opposition
aroused in both political parties
at the Capitol, the Air Force was
reported ready to throw its full
weight against the proposal sub
mitted Tuesday by Secretary of
Commerce Weeks.
Air Secretary Quarles was out

Gated his department soon will
re-state its objections to a COM
bination of civilian and military
activity at the key base in Prince
Georges County. Md. The Air
Force criticized a similar pro-
posal several years ago.
Secretary Weeks made the An
drews proposal to the Senate
Commerce Committee headed by
Senator Magnuson, Democrat Of
Washington.
Rebuffed by Magnuson
Chairman Magnuson rebuffed
him in a statement yesterday,
protesting that Mr.. Weeks de-
partment calmly disregards a
committee warning against a
public airport authority for the
Washington area. The Senator
said the government should pay
for a new airport because it is
responsible for crowding at
National.
Secretary Weeks said an au-
thority should be appointed to
handle any construction neces-
sary and to supervise operations
on National Airport and a Sec
ond airport established here for
commercial aviation. If Congress
respects the Andrews plan, Sec

Senator Butler charged New
Deal spenders' on the Senate
Commerce Committee had tried
to coerce Secretary Weeks into
forcing the establishment of a
second airport. against wishes
of both Maryland and Virginia
He said the unnamed Senators
had yielded to pressure from the

itself issued a statement object
ing to commercial flights at An

new airport at Burke.
Representative Landlord COM

all this last summer" At that
time. he said. it was agreed the
mingling of commercial planes
with fast military Jets would
create a highly hazardous situa-
ton for residents of the area, as
well as for as for aircraft and
its personnel.
He said commercialization of
Andrews would be an ''extrava-
CANT waste of public funds. .
Senator Butler took a similar
stand.
alta Fears Delay
The Alta said creation of a
public authority at this time
would delay construction of a
facility sorely needed because
National is operating at capac-
ity. 1t said If there must be an
authority. it can be appointed
after construction begins at
Burke, or even after the project
is completed.
Senator Magnuson said his
committee is taking no part in
the selection of a specific site
but wants prompt action for a
second airport before crowded
conditions at National cause a
disaster.
Citizens groups opposed to An
drews have scheduled number
of meetings, during which new
protests will be adopted or old
ones reiterated.

Keith Funston, president of the
New York Stock Exchange. said
yesterday the recent "unparal-
leled growth" of American cor

heavily on borrowing. He sale
the growth has been achieved
by paying too little attention tc

piling up debt, to what could be-
come unhealthy levels"
More of the expansion, he said
should be through issuance OF
new stocks-instead of through
new debts.
Mr.. Funston told meeting Of

ing for every 81 they raised b.
new stock issues.
He said exchange research

should be at least 1912 million
