Baltimore Files Appeal
o Hold Ore Rate Edge

BALTIMORE. Jan. % Dr.
Baltimore began another round
yesterday in its fight against
sharing it's ore rate advantage
with other cities.
The target is an Interstate
Commerce Commission ruling of
last year. Involved is import ore
freight rates.
The ices split decision would
allow Philadelphia to keep
freight rates on ore going to
Midwestern plants at a level
equal to Baltimore's. The ruling
also would allow New York rail-
roads to reduce their rates to
the same level as Baltimore's de-
spite Baltimore's shorter mileage
to steel centers.
Baltimore interests are appeal
ling to Federal Court to reverse
the ICC decision. The Federal
Court panel includes Judges r,
Dorsey Watkins. w. Calvin Ches-
nut and Morris A. Soper.
Judge Watkins last October
granted an order staying the ICC
decision until an appeal could be
heard.
The 80-year-old freight rate
Idifferential on ores was set UP
partially because of Baltimore's
closer proximity to Midwestern
steel centers and has been largely
responsible for Baltimore becom-
ing the largest import ore center
in the Nation.
Baltimore interests appealing
the decision hold that the ICC
acted illegally in their ruling
because they based it upon COM
Ipetitive or commercial consider
atoms rather than transporta-
ton facts.
The city, local railroads, the
Association Of Commerce. the
Maryland Port Authority and
many port trade groups are join
ing in the appeal.
New York. Philadelphia and
Boston interests and the ice
were to argue against the appeal

RICHMOND, Jan. % Dr.
The Virginia Supreme Court yes

order allowing a telephone COM
lpany to pass on to its customers
certain taxes imposed by the
City Of Newport News.
In q l2-page opinion, the high
court upheld the commission
ruling but made one major modi-
fication.
Newport News had appealed
from a commission order amend
ing a rate schedule of the Cllesa-
peake & Potomac Telephone Co.
of Virginia. The commission had
ordered that when a political
subdivision imposed on q COM
pany a license tax or franchise
flee. such taxes and fees could
be billed to exchange customers
receiving service within that
locality.
i However, the commissioner
Eorder had specified that this
1could be done IL the aggregate
amount "of such taxes and fees
exceeds one-half Of / per cent
OF the aggregate bills" of GUS
toners for the exchange service
The supreme court, in ar
opinion written by Justice Archi-

Operation to Pad Hip Joint
Hailed as Relief for Arthritis

and stitched at the bottom.
After several months the skin
turns to a form of cartilage.
The doctors plan to keep Mr..
Shotwell, a farmer. in traction
for four weeks. Afterwards he
will gradually be allowed to use
crutches for movement although
it will probably be several months
before he can use his hip fully.
Hitherto. this same condition
has been treated with the use
of plastic, sponge-like material
for a lining or, sometimes, the
head of the femur bone has
been replaced with a metal cup.
This new type of surgery. it
was emphasized, must still stand
the test of time.

the State Department to come

for a long time.
Skin was taken from Mr.. Shot,
wells abdomen and his femur

the expectation that in several
months it will provide painless

Gov. Stanley will speak Feb

the no-integration legislation
was passed by the General As
sembly last September.
Some experts have argued the
legislation-and particularly the
law to cut off State funds to
localities which begin integra-
tion-had a bad psychological
effect on prospective bond buy
ers. Gov. Stanley, however, has
said repeatedly the bonds are
as strong. legally and financially,
as If the legislative changes had
not been made.
The New York trip grew out
Of a meeting here between the
Governor and Virginia invest

Governor had called the meeting

were faced with high interest
proposals on prospective bond
issues.

BOBBING IN BAY

NORFOLK, Nov. 8 (P).
About 500 three-ton rolls
OF newsprint, previously

ping has been warned of

of the Rappahannock River
while being towed to Tren-
ton, N. j., by the tug Lila
Haden.
When the tug reported
the sinking the Coast Guard

found but warnings that
they might be loose in the
Bay were distributed to
shipping interests.
A Coast Guard patrol
boat from Crisf1eld, Md,

For Huge Tract
Asked in NV.
Planners Approve
New Project in
Initial Action
BY GRACE BASSETT

Plans for a sparkling new
central city in the Nations
Capital were approved today.
They would convert 915
acres of the slum- saddled
northwest into neat and airy
home and shopping area. Wide
boulevards, ample parks. schools
and other community facilities
would be combined with busi-
ness centers to hold prosperous
Washingtonians close to the
heart of the District.
This Northwest section is
bounded by U street and Florida
avenue on the north. Union
Station on the east, K street
and Massachusetts, avenue on
the south, and Fourteenth
street on the west.

and the Redevelopment Land
Agency through the past year.
John Remon, chairman of
the joint NCPC-RLA commit
tee in charge, handed the draft
today to the commission.
Mr.. Remon asked for "tenta-
tive approval as a basis for
review" The NCPC voted this
approval unanimously at 11:4O
am.
Chairman Harland M. Bar
tholomew commented that it
was a great pleasure to work
on a project of this scope with
out pressure for hasty deci-
sions."
Now, the plan will be pre-
sented to the Housing anG
Home Finance Agency.
HHFA Administrator Albert
F. Coles comment, as well as
suggestions from home owners.
businessmen, citizen groups
and other governmental agen-
cies will be solicited, Mr..
Remon said.
Will Be Master Plan
The plan that survives this
scrutiny will be the master
urban renewal program for
the northwest, similar to re-
newal already underway in the
southwest. 1t will obligate
Uncle Sam to share equally
with District taxpayers the cost
of improving the tract.
Twenty-Five spectators filled
all the seats in the NCPC con-
ference room this morning to
listen to Charles Conrad. chief
staff planner for the program,
show pictures and charts ex-
planning changes proposed for
the area. His exhibit was filled
with color pictures Of alley
junkyards, children forced for
lack of park space to play in
the streets, and monotonouS
blocks of dingy row houses,
characteristic of many neigh
borhoods.
The plan would change the
face of the area in these ma
jor ways:

just east of First street along
the general line of Florida ave-
nue. would be the proposed
Inner loop" a major bypass
for swift traffic. The express
way was shifted from a location
between Third and Fourth
streets to consolidate industries
east of First street.
Grass Plots Planned
Massachusetts avenue would
be f1anked by series of tri-
angular grass plots, dressing it
up as the scenic entrance to the
Northwest neighborhood from
the Capitol.
About 10 acres of present
streets would be converted to
park strips, residential BLOCKS
