on labor corruption by the

for equal efforts TO smoke out

AFL-CIO President George

labor's position in this way:
The important thing Is
that we have demonstrated
that we are reluctant to throw
people out Of the house OF la

that We do it n the full knowl-
edge that it presents dangers to

We have done here this week.
Mr. Meany then told the
Federation it must stick to its

Generally speaking. he said,
forward positions in defense
against Russia should be
manned mostly by local troops.
But this does not suggest that
United states forces should be

he added.
Specialization could reduce

military fields. he continued,
but money saved in one area

others.
Foresees No Budget Cut
He foresaw no cut In the
American defense budget next
year, although indicating the
administration may hope for
some savings In the future.
Mr.. Dulles devoted much Of
his news conference to elah0-

President and Prime Minister

free world allies. He said allied
leaders must convince their
weaker partners that the free
world Is strong. that 1t will use

Although 1t has been obvious
for some years that greater CO.

He blamed Congress for some

their costs and effectiveness.
The two most economical Of
these, Mr.. Bird indicated, In,
volve q high dam at River

call for building a high dam
at that location at the out
set, a smaller one on Bank

and Martinsburg, w. Va, next,
and finally q big dam near
Springfield, w. Va, on the

respectively. Among them the
structures would cost q total
of sl36 million. They would
meet consumption demands be-
yond the year 2l00.
BY constructing near Mill
vile, Va. on the Shenandoah
River a dam OF even bigger
capacity than River Bend, and
using 1t to augment River
Bend. the need for building
the other four dams suggested
, In plan one would be obviated
until after 2i00 A. d. The cost.
however. would be greater by
$22 million.
Another Combination
Plan 3 submitted by Mr..
Bird purely as possibilities
would provide a lower dam at
River Bend and construction
OF eight other relatively small
dams at various intervals over
the decades and scattered all
over the watershed. The cost
would be about SOS million to
do the same approximate job as
the first two plans.
The fourth possibility would
require building no less than
II medium dams - none OF
them at River Bend-at widely
scattered locations throughout
the watershed. The cost Of
these would total about 1897
million.

Meeting Of the Chesapeake Sec
ton Of the American Water
Works Association at the Sher-

Commissioner. welcomed the

Early Action Advised
A key point in Mr.. Birds
talk was the need for action
soon to acquire land for dams
and reservoirs in the Potomac
Valley.
IF we allow presumption OF
the best sites by our own un-
planned and unregulated
growth. we shall be accused by
our grandchildren Of placing
the seed Of destruction in the
plant that nourished them.
Mr.. Bird warned.
He referred approvingly to
some recent advice given by
Brig. Gen. Thomas A. Lane,

Arlington Commonwealth's
Attorney william j. Hassan
said today that he has found
no evidence Of crime or ANY
illegality" In the reassessment
boards expenditures.
County Board member Ralph
Kaul has said that J. Maynard

on q rival slate. was overpaid
for his services on the reassess-
ment board.
After a lengthy hearing Mon
day, the county hoard-hy a
3 to 2 vote along political lines
Mr.. Magruder of
any irregularities. The two
minority members. Mr.. Kaul
and David Krupsaw, have taken
the position that the hearing
was q whitewash.
Hassen's Conclusion
Today. Mr.. HaSsan In q pre-
pared statement. went over the
controversy point BY point and
concluded:
"a complete review Of the
allegations and the sworn testi-
mony does not reveal evidence
Of crime or any evidence Of any
illegality. and at this time there
would be nothing 10 support any
action or to justify the institu-
ton Of any action by the COM
monwealths attorney within the
framework Of his duties and re-
sponsibilities."
A major point at issue Il
whether Mr.. Magruder was
justified in drawing overtime
pay while serving on q $40 per
diem basis.
On the basis of sworn testi-
mony, Mr.. Hassan said, Mr.
Magruder's submission Of

basis based on an hourly rate
Is in full accord with the custom
and usage established by the
county and approved and paid
for by the county board"
