for Congress to have to auth

purge" him from the Virginia
General Assembly.
In speech before some 200
friends and supporters at a cam

side at a number of city political
leaders who he said were behind
the campaign of Albert A. Smoot.
his opponent in the July 8 Dem

The incumbent renewed "inte-
grationist" charges against his
opposition and said a church

Smoot actually encompasses

goal of an integrationist."
Administration Backer
Mr.. ThomSon's assault on
Senator Boothe was no surprise
since the two stood on opposite
sides of the States school segre-
CATION program. Mr.. Thomson
supported the entire administra-
ton program to preserve segre-
cation and Mr.. Boothe Endorsed
a locally administered pupil

Supreme Court decision. Mr..
Smoot in his campaign has
urged the same approach as
Senator Boothe.

tinue to clear all bridge projects
through the National Capital

executive agencies. just as it
does now. But Congress would
not come into the picture until
the city sought actual appro-
priations to build.
| In a prepared statement on
the Constitution avenue project.
Gen. Lane implied it is an I'M

added element of confusion-for
Congress to get into details of
bridge locations. He noted that

Asks Consideration
His statement suggested that
the Senate District Committee
consider granting to the Com
missioners an authority similar
to that enjoyed by all State
highway commissions to build
such bridges as may be required
/. and to negotiate with ad-
jacent States on interstate
bridges, with the concurrence of

Gen. Lane omitted this part of
his general statement from his
testimony yesterday, however
and there was no discussion at
all on the matter.
4 Later. he told reporters he
passed over the matter because
the Districts lawyers believe it
may not even be necessary for
the city to seek a specific au-
thority from Congress. Corpora

determining whether the Federal
Highway Act contains sufficient
authority for the city to deal
with States and the Federal Bu-

is checking other angles.
