$119 Million Sought
For Area Projects
Funds Budgeted
For Bridge, GA,
State Department

President Eisenhower today
requested supplemental appro-
priations totaling nearly $l19
million to build a Jones Point
Bridge. extend the State De-
partment building and erect q
Central Intelligence Agency
headquarters at Langley.
Also included in the request
is $150,000 to meet expenses of
the District Auditorium Com
mission from October 25, 1855
(the date of its first meeting),
to January 81, 1857 when its
final report is duel.
Mr.. Eisenhower asked that the
funds for the building projects
be provided during the fiscal
year beginning next July /.
Estimated Construction Costs
The funds specified represent
the full estimated construction
costs on each of the three prof.
ects. The breakdown:
Jones Point Bridge $l4,325,.
900 to build the span proper, in
lcluding bascule-type draw Sec
ton and some 100000 for land
acquisitions. Cost of the ap.
proaches will be borne by Mary
land and Virginia. Maintenance
and operations costs have yet to
be worked out among the District
and the two States. Another
pending bill calls for naming the
bridge in honor of Woodrow VIII
son.
State Department extension
$55.6 million for an addition to
the present structure in the area
bounded by Twenty-first, Twen-
ty-third, C and D streets NV,
The completed single building
is designed to accommodate all
department personnel now scat
tered among 20 buildings in the
Washington area. The Interna-
tional Cooperation Agency may
possibly be housed there, as well.
$40 Million for CHA
CHA Headquarters-$49 million
for the structure itself as well
as sufficient money to extend
George Washington Memorial
Parkway to points near the site
in Virginia.
/ The White House specified
that the Jones Point Bridge ap-
preparation should be tagged to
the Commerce Department. Leg
islation accomplishing this is at
the White House now awaiting
presidential action.
The CHA appropriation may
well run into opposition on Cap
itol Hill. Though area planning
agencies finally have agreed with
CHA on the Langley site, die
hard DIRECTORS are expected to
try to block the actual appro-
priation when hearings are held.
The sums requested were part
of a $186 million total asked by
the President to meet supple
mental needs of several agencies
during fiscal 1857.
