They could have danced all
night. And even though it
was a Monday, they almost
did.
The occasion was a din
ner-dance given by the Ven
zuelan Ambassador and Sc
nora de Gonzalez at their
embassy last night in honor
Of the Chief of Protocol and
Mrs. Wiley Buchanan.
1t was as official as could
be. but very gay and few
people looked at the clock.
In fact, Devron and his
orchestra provided continu-
GUS music until well past 2
am, as guests twirled in the
emhassy's drawing room,
temporarily converted into
q ballroOrn
The hostess and the guest
Of honor couldn't have pro-
vided a more attractive con-
trast. Both are pretty and
petite, with delicate features,
but Georgina Gonzalez has
jet black hair with dark eyes.
while Ruth Buchanan is very
blonde and blue-eyed.
The hostess - one of
Washington's best dressed"
wore a dress of lemon sat,
in covered with matching
lace, fashioned shorter in
front and falling into a
small train in the back. Mrs.
Buchanan's dress by
Fontana, her favorite de-
signer was white and spark
ling with brilliants. With it
she wore ruby and diamond
jewels.
And incidentally, it was a
very special day for the Blu
chanans. as it marked the
18th anniversary of the day
their engagement was an
nounced.
TAKING HONORS also in
the clothes department were
several from the Spanish
embassy - the Countess of
Motrico in a green satin
Dior; Sonora Enrique DOM
inguez-Passier in a dazzling
Balenciaga Of pale gold
colored peau de sole fashion,
ed with a harem skirt; and
Senorita Pillar de Aldasoro
getting a big rush in her
lovely. bright green. short
evening dress by Rodriguez.
The evening began with
formal dinner for about 40
persons - among them the
Ambassador of Italy and Sig
noria Brosio, the British Am
bassador and Lady Caccia
the German Ambassador ane
Mme.. Krekeler. Austria's

story parking garage in Silver
Spring were revealed yesterday
by the Montgomery County
Department Of Public Works.
Public Works Director Mason
Butcher said the garage would
have about 9 acres of parking.

million, Mr.. Butcher said.
The garage would be the first
built by the county under its
parking lot program in Bethesda,
Silver Spring. Wheaton and
Montgomery Hills.
The garage would take virtu-
ally the entire block bounded by
Ellsworth drive, Cedar street.
Pershing drive and Fenton

titles to all but five lots needed.
Entrance to the ground floor
would be. of Ellsworth. Entrance
to the second and third levels

The use Of Andrews Air Force
Base popped back into Washing
toms stagnant second airport
picture today.
In a letter to James T. Pyle,
administrator Of Civil Aero
Inautics, Representative Norblad,
Republican Of OREGON. proposed
that the Andrews facility be
moved to the new field author
lied recently by the House
Armed Service Committee for
the Navy near Annapolis.
This. Mr.. Norblad said, would
open Andrews to civil use.
His letter asked that the CAA
explore with the Department of
Defense. the possibility of using
Andrews Field for this purpose. "
Funds Allotted for Airfield
AS a member Of the Armed
Services Committee. Mr.. Norblad
pointed out that within the past
few weeks (the committee) au-
thorized the expenditure Of $3.2
million for an airfield to be
known as Towers Field, to be
constructed between Washington
and Annapolis.
While this is primarily to
replace Anacostia and as a train
ing f1eld for the Naval Academy
students. it would certainly APP
pear to me to be of adequate size
to handle the military planes
now at Andrews"
Mr.. Norblad said the ultimate
cost Of the new Navy project is
expected to be about $50 million.
Congress last year rejected the
Towers Field proposal and its
suggested location at Davidson
vile. Md.
The use of Andrews was the
primary proposal by the CAA
after its prolonged study over a
second airport. It has since re-
peated the suggestion, but an in
dignant Air Force merely pointed
to the still-growing facility near
camp Springs. Md, and cited

McKe|din Threat
Against Resort
Ship Renewed
BY GENE GOODWIN
star Stan Correspondent

LA PLATA, Md. June S.
Charles County officials today
: were faced with a second threat
from Gov. McKeldin that the
Maryland Legislature may ere
examine" laws allowing slot ma
chimes and liquor by the drink
In the county.
The threat CAME on the heels
Of the county's refusal yes
terday to rescind a liquor
license issued for use on a
Potomac River luxury ship,
moored about Is miles south Of
Washington.
Owners Of the ship, however
said they have no present plans
for requesting slot machine
licenses from the county.
Earlier, it had been reported
that about 200 machines were to
be installed on the vessel.
Attacked by Both States
This report, plus disclosure
that a liquor license had been
issued for the ship. earned it
the title Of floating casino and
brought public attacks from Gov.
McKeldin Of Maryland and Gov.
Stanley Of Virginia.
Gov. McKeldin, in a new at
tack today. charged county off,
cials with a selfish disregard
Of good neighborly relations.
Mr.. McKeldin said the Charles
County officials have. to put
it mildly. strange sense Of JUS
tice and a distorted aptitude for
legal reasoning"
Certainly" he said, there
can be no requirement for this
liquor license based on public
convenience since it is intended
not primarily for Maryland citi-
Gems to whom the issuing on
Gals should be responsible, but
for those Of Virginia. where
the sale Of liquor by the drink
Is prohibited by law"
Then he dropped the threat:

e. . when a county's affairs are
administered in the manner
which creates unnecessary inter-

essary. I believe. for the State
to re-examine the laws which
make possible such selfish dis
regard Of good neighborly re-
lations through the arbitrary
acts Of a single county"
Legislator to Act
Neither ! nor, I am sure, the
responsible members of the Gen.
eral Assembly will let this serious
matter rest on the action of
those in Charles County who ap-
pear to lack a sense Of official
responsibility where the good
name of the State and that of
their county are concerned"
In Baltimore, Delegate Maurice
Cardin, Democrat of Baltimore,
said he had called a meeting of
his House Intergovernmental
Cooperation Committee June
IL in Baltimore to begin an in
vestigation Of the matter.
Delegate Cardin had threat
ened to do so last week II Charles
County officials did not grant
Gov. McKeldin's request not to
license the boat.
At yesterdays hearing there
we're no protests against the
liquor license application for the
floating restaurant and bar.
Owners of the 220-foot lux
ury ship COLCHESTER plan to keep
it moored to a pier OF the Vir-

Just north Of Quantico.
Virginia does not permit sale
of liquor by the drink or slot
machines. but the ship would be
in Charles County. Nd, since
Maryland owns the Potomac
River up to the Virginia shore.
Joint Meeting Held
Because Of letters Gov. Nc
Keldin wrote last week to Charles
County officials protesting any
issuance Of licenses enabling the
ship to sell mixed drinks and
install slot machines, the Dem

missioners held a Joint meet
ing yesterday with the county
liquor board. which is appointed
by the commissioners.
After two closed-door confer
ences. the commissioners and the

The Sanitary Commission was
urged TO withhold selection OF a
site for the plant pending con-
sultation with the council and
the Maryland-Nationa Capital

called for public hearings during
