reached last Friday when the

Mr.. Stone said the most severe
overcrowding is In the cottages

Joint Committee
Urges Sturt on
Planned Rood Link

A joint committee yesterday
reported to the Montgomery
County Council that construc-
ton of a parkway between River
road and Bradley boulevard
should proceed as planned.
The Little Falls branch park
way. the report stated, should
connect with Bradley boulevard
in Bethesda in the vicinity of
Glenbrook road. This connection
was bitterly protested last week
by the Glenbrook Home Owners
Association, whose spokesman
charged that traffic bypasslng
the Bethesda business district
would clog Glenbrook road west
of Edgemoor and deteriorate
nearby residential areas.
The controversy was aired
before the council last Tuesday
when officials of the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission outlined their
plans for the mile section
of the parkway. The two-'ane
leg, planned to tie in ultimately
with a proposed highway ex-
tending northwest from the Dis
trict. was designed to connect
with Glenbrook and Fairfax
roads on the north.
An alternate route, enthusi-
astically backed by the Glen
brook homeowners. would have
linked the parkway to the
southern terminus of Arlington
road. However, a county public
works department plan to
widen Arlington road where it
skirts the eastern edge Of resi-
dental Edgemoor, has also been
by area residents.
Mason A. Butcher, county d.
rector of public works. presented
the report today and said the
committee concluded that an
Arlington road connection, while
desirable, would cost so much
that at this time. it cannot be
justified"
The five-man committee was
composed of staff members Of
the planning commission and
the county public works de-
Ipartment. The committee also
declared that linking the park
way with Glenbrook road will,
lin our opinion. not add mate
rally to the traffic on Glenbrook
road"
The council. after hearing Mr..
Butcher estimate the cost of
Arlington road connection at
about 100000. indicated APP
prevail of the recommendation
but deferred a final vote until
next Tuesday. They were told
the Glenbrook tie-in would cos
$4,000.
One objection to the report
was voiced by Councilman j,
Grahame Walker, who declared
I'm still not convinced! The
situation nesdS more thought.
Council President Charles H
JamiSon commented that coun-
ell decisions are made with an
abundance Of precautions and
representations" He had ear
lier urged immediate action in
support of the Glenbrook road
link.

Senator Morse testified bel
tour yesterday of slum areas in
ington. The subcommittee is
drafting public housing legisla-
ton.
Senator Morse said Congress
has been doing a "wretched job
of slum clearance in the Dis
trict." He said Congress has a
moral obligation to provide ade-
quate housing as long as II
continues to throttle" self-gov-
eminent for the District.
Describing his tour yesterday
through slum areas, Senator
Morse said houses constructed
under our private enterprise sys-
tenn were worse than the ac-
commodations provided for his
hogs on his farm in Maryland.
He said one had only to walk
into public housing develop
ment to see the striking con-
trast between homes provided
by the Government and those
held by rent gougers.
? Says Needy are Exploited
The Senator said the needy of
Washington are entitled to rent
control and said they were being
exploited by selfish economic
interests.
Let Congress follow a course
TO protect the rights of big busi-
ness" he said. but prevent ex-
ploitation of the weak"
The Senator was asked to
testify by Senator Clark. Demo-
crat of Pennsylvania. who ac-
companied Senator Morse on the
Stun tour yesterday. Senator
Morse added in his testimony
that private enterprise will never
do the job filled by public housing
developments.
Meanwhile. Senator Morse and
his Senate District subcommlt-
tee colleagues were considering
what moves they should propose
to bolster the Districts public
assistance program.
The Oregon Senator, who has
been conducting an inquiry into
the welfare situation here, is on
record as considering the city's
present financial help to the
needy to be inadequate.
His conviction was strength
ened yesterday by his tour.
Proposed legislation to consol-
Iidate the District public assist
ance laws is undergoing re-
vision by city legal counsel fol
lresubmission to Congress. Need
for the legislation has been cited
by welfare officials for years, and
the proposal has been before two
previous Congresses.
Food Plan Clears 1O1
These developments came al
a time when the Commissioners
30-day emergency feeding plar
cleared l0l families yesterday
This brought the total numbei
of families to 425, representing
l,7l6 children. according to the
Public Assistance Division of the
Welfare Department.
Yesterday brought a call fol
creation of an adequate anc
full scale public welfare pro.
gram" to Senator Morse from
Family and Child Services o.
; Washington.
The family counseling agency
suggested these specific provi.
sions:
Adequate help to guarantee
families a subsistence.
Prompt help - no more
lengthy delays.
Realistic help, based on the
needs of families. rather thar
upon their capacities to fit pres.
ent restrictive policies"
i Previous Points Retained
I u was understood the con.
solidated public assistance Law
proposal would retain its pre-.
lvious major provisions designed
for better-balanced and more
uniform procedures than are
possible under the present sep.
arate acts. 1t still is under study
however. in the Corporation
CounSelS office.

Token for a Ride
1t. Francis H. Dunn of the
Metropolitan Police Depart

reau was telling of some Of
the problems of his office.
One is a woman taxi driver.
She picked up a man with
suitcases in front of the
MayfiOwer Hotel. He asked
her how long it took to get
to Union Station adding that
he had almost an hour be-
fore train time. She told
him he had plenty of time
and asked him if he would
like to see the Marine Corps
Two lima Memorial.
That sounded like a good
idea to him and she took
him over Memorial Bridge,
passed the monument and
came back via Fourteenth
street bridge. He was well
in time for his train but
somewhat indignant when
he was charged $3.50 for the
ride.
Because she took him
outside the District" the
lieutenant said, I'VE had no
control over what she
charged
On another occasion she
picked up seven girls in front
of the White House and
gave then a One-hOur sight
seeing tour, for which she
demanded 81 apiece. One
girl did not have 81 and the
driver magnanimOusly ac-
cepted S24.
"Again she had taken her
passengers outside the Dis
trict," said the lieutenant,
"but she was in outright
violation of the regulations
because she took seven pas
sengers in her cab. The limit
is six.
Revocation of a hacking
license calls for a hearing
and witnesses. By the time
1t came to our attention the
girls were back home in
Pennsylvania. The owner
of the taxi involved offered
to pay half their fare if they
would come back and testify
against the woman, but they
didn't come back"
Beware, she is still driving
q cab.
