While today's appropriation
committee action did not di-
rectly affect the Montgomery
controversy, it hits hard at the
extension in Fairfax County.
Further Study Needed
About a month ago, the Plan
ming Commission informed the
Senate committee that further
study was needed on plans for
the stretch between Great Falls
and Cabin John. AS quickly as
possible. the planners said, they
would study the possibility of
having the road only as a two
lane route for that limited por-
ton, instead of four lanes as con-
templated.
At that same time, however,
Planning Commission Chairman
Harland Bartholomew pleaded
with the Senators not to cut land
acquisition funds in view of the
restudy.
He said that because of grow
ing economic pressure" for pri-
waite development in that area
his commission believes it is
necessary to make a commitment
this coming year with county
and State governments and pri-
vate landowners for the parkway
if it is ever to be accomplished
at reasonable costs. 1t would be
unfortunate to fail at this time to
complete this parkway when the
original objective is so close at
hand"

Youth Council
Backs Ban on
Teen Lettering
Offers Regional Plan
To Aid City Heads in
Delinquency FIGHT

The Commissioners Youth
Council today Endorsed a police
proposal for a District crack
down on teen-age lettering.
The youth group unanimously
backed a proposed regulation
empowering police to arrest
youngsters under 10 found lott
ering between 10 pm. and 6 am.
in public places.
On other matters. the coun-
Gil:
Backed the proposed addition
of a second Juvenile Court judge.
Heard that an experimental
child guidance team will be set
up in the public school system
next fall to work with so-called
"incorrigibles" on the verge Of
custer.
Offered help to the Commits
sioners in combating juvenile
delinquency on a regional basis.
Not a Curfew
Police Capt. John T. Ryan of
the Youth Aid Division, told
the council the anti-loitering
power which the Police Depart
ment is seeking is not a curfew.
He said police would be unable
to enforce a curfew.
He said the exact wording of
the regulation will be up to the
city's legal officers.
The language proposed by the
Police Department not only af-
fectS juveniles. but also makes it
a violation for a parent to per-
NIT youngsters to loiter. The
department is proposing a $500
fine or 80 days in jail as the
penalty.
DR.. c. Herbert Marshall. a
council member, suggested the
council urge the Commissioners
to consider establishing a similar
lettering ban affecting adults.
This was voted down.
The council was told that city
officials have agreed to provide
a pSychiatrist. psychologist and
two social workers for the ex-
perimental team which is to be-
gin working with school problem
children next fall.
To Seek Funds
] School Supt. Hobart M. Corn
ing said funds for a permanent
team will be requested in the
1889 budget.
Welfare Director Gerard M.
Shea suggested the action on the
regional anti-delinquency move.
He predicted that within 10 or
is years Washington suburbs
viii have delinquency problems
similar to those in the District.
4 Mr.. Shea reported that youth
leaders plan to meet next fall on
the problem of juvenile gangs in
the District. He said police at
a meeting at Anacostia High
School said about 25 gangs are
now active, chiefly east of the
Anacostia River.
Area boards working with Tie
Youth Council have been asked
TO set up gang committees to
work on the problem. Mr.. Shea

the House has voted in the big
Interior Department appropria-
ton bill for Washington area
parks and parkways.
Specifically, the Senate unit
rejected SIS million fol- land
acquisition for the parkway be-
tween Great Falls and the pro-
posed Cabin John Bridge in
Fairfax. and SIG million for
land from the District line to
Fort Washington in Prince
Georges.
Calls for Review
In a terse comment. the COM
mittee noted that the parkway
was begun under the Capper-
Cramton Act in 1880. In view
of recent land development, it
said. 1.-The desirability and need
for the extension of the parkway
into these areas should be re-
viewed by the appropriate leg
islative committees"
The committee left only about
$l.3 million of the park and
parkway money voted by the
House. 1t covered $4,000 to
permit land acquisition to be
completed for the parkway in
Montgomery County: 1918. 900
Tor extending several stream
valley parks in nearby MARYLAND
and 81 million for nine parks
in the District.
Other Developments
In other related developments
on the parkway:
/ /. The Fairfax Board of Coun-
ty Supervisors yesterday agreed
to stick by a previous commit
ment to contribute to the park
way land acquisition costs be-
tween Cabin John and Great
Falls. Under the Capper-
Cramton Act. the Federal Gov
eminent puts up half the cost
and the county and State in
Ivolved each put up one-fourth.
A number of citizens of the
Fairfax area have attempted
TO block the local funds.
2. The National Capital Plan
ning Commission orrow
morning will give citizens a
chance to propose alternate
routes to the parkway location
beyond the District line in Mont
gomery County. In response to
objections TO the currently
planned route. it was disclosed.
Chairman Murray of the SEN
ate Interior Committee has OBJ
tanned a pledge from the Park
Service not TO proceed with con-
struction OF this road portion
until the citizens get their day
in court.
Federal park officials already
have funds in hand to begin the
Maryland portion, and work was
expected to get under way al
most Immediately.
Many of the protests, from
conservation and naturalist
groups. have urged a route fur
ther away from the Potomac and
adjoining park lands than is
proposed.
Two More Routes Drafted
John Nolan. jr.. Planning
Commission director. said that
in response to the opposition his
staff has drafted two feasible"
routes farther east. One runs
on the Macarthur boulevard

Learns from Friend
A friend Of Johnny's went to
camp last year. and came home
with a glowing report.
So Mrs. johnson went TO the
social agency that had arranged
for little Billy to. go TO camp,
to see about camps for her boy,
too.
She planned to pay for the
entire camping period.
Social workers who went over
her budget with her soon real
lied that Mrs. johnson could not
afford to pay regular camping
fees for her son. But they de-
scribed the camp his friend Billy
had attended without charge in
Prince William Forest Park, Va
a camp that Johnny might be
able to attend, too, through gifts
to The Evening Star Summer

Mrs. johnson was delighted
and asked that Johnny 90 10

WHEN AHE WEE AINU Uc-
gan the Rambler recognized
the presiding officer. He was
John T. Gibbs, an old aquaint-
ance. John Gibbs was on the
New York World. When that
was sold he went to work for
the New York State Conserva-
ton Commission and became
the commiSsioner-no small

Mr.. Gibbs was with the
Office of War Information
when the Rambler last met
him at a party. Memory is
hazy as to the exact location,
an apartment in the Dor
chester House comes to mind.
But what broke that party
up is just like yesterday. The

older. His straight black hair

The

Watches Some
Men After Work
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

The other day at 10 am.
the Rambler attended a meet
ing of Forty Plus.
This is the organization
which has been very success
full in breaking through the
age barrier-in getting jobs for
its members, all of whom are
over 40.
The Rambler was handed a
copy of the bulletin mailed
to employers. The heading
was: There is No Substitute
for Experience"
This was the June issue.
Applicants were identified only
by number and a line of type.
One under the last category
read: "3247-Public Relations,
Congressional Liaison-For-
mer member White House
staff. Active in passage Of
legislation. Represented large
international firm. Fluent
French, fair Spanish, widely
travelled" Age was not men,
toned.
1t was explained that when
Inquiry is made about "3247"
or any of the other numbers
in the bulletin, a letter giving
the mans name and a longer
resume of his experience is
sent to the prospective en-
ployer. The members do all
the clerical work. Active
members are those looking
for a job. When they get a
job, most drop out; some stay
on as associate members be-
cause they fear the job will
be temporary.
