some Of the roles that make
Mrs. Eleanor Lee Templeman
one of the busiest women in
Northern Virginia.
And If the historian part
Of her life follows close on

it's because she finds herself
a leader in what she views
as almost an explosion Of

dria residents in the last
year have taken a sudden,
proud look at their past,
resulting in new research
and increased concern for

She attributes the devel-
opment to three causes:
First. the Yorktown festi-
val called attention to early
Virginia history. and indi-
rectly. to the events Of later
years.
Suburbla Threat
Then, frequent stories Of
the loss or threatened loss Of
historic landmarks stiHnu-
lated wide concern that an
onrushing suburbia would
steamroller over historic sites.
And the school systems
abetted the movement as new
teachers sought resource ma
terial. only to find gaps in
the fund Of historical fact on
Northern Virginia. Mrs. Tenn
pleman noted that local his

the third and seventh grades
in Virginia schools.

More Cuts Expected
The biggest problem is to get
spending back into line quickly,
but it now appears that that
won't come about before late
September or early October.
Even manpower cuts take long
periods to be reflected in ex-
penditures because the individ-
uals fred are entitled to sep.
aration pay, etc. Procurement
reductions do not show up in
the spending for much longer
periods.
Thereforep with the spending
still flying high, more cuts in

Plane With 81
.Lunds in Spite
Of Blown Tire

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. II
R.-A four-engined passenger
plane with 81 persons aboard
landed safely here today with
one Of its giant tires in ribbons
from a blowout that occurred
as it left Idlewild Airport. New
York.
The United AR Lines Oct
came down smoothly into a
brisk wind at San Francisco
International Airport on a run
way lined with eight FIRE trucks
which had been ready for
hours. A large crowd had
gathered to watch the drama.
The pilot. Capt. Clyde Par
lette, SO. Of San Carlos, Calf. :,
brought his big airliner quickly
to q halt. He turned it around
and TAXED back to the airport.
Routine Flight, He Says
ut was just a routine fight, /"
said Capt. Parlette, a veteran
Of 20 years with UAL and 5000
hours Of flight time. That's
why we have two tires and two
tubes on each side
But he showed signs Of strain
and wore q short stubble Of
beard which he hadn't bothered
to shave OF before landing.
He said he told the passen-
gers about the blown-out tire
when the plane was over Sac
ramento, about 70 miles away.
He said he had felt the tire was
out Of line on takeoif and had
noticed q vibration while re-
tracing the landing gear.
Surprised at show
After delivering his Sc pas
sengers and four other crewmen
safely at $685. pm, Pacific Day
light Tint (6:35 pm, Eastern
Daylight Time, Capt. Parlette
seemed surprised that airport
ofiicials had made such q
show" Of the landing.
James HERS, OF Morristown,
NJ, one of the passengers,
said: There was no alarm when
Capt. Parlette said our right
inboard tire under the wing
was gone and warned us not to
be alarmed If we saw firefight-
ing equipment on the field"
The damaged tire. pieces Of
which were found on the run
way at Idlewild, could not be
inspected in flight.
Capt. Parlette circled the
landing tower when he arrived
so observers on the ground
could look for damage. They
saw the big tire was cracked,
torn and one part was fiaupinQ.

Mansfield Sees Change
In Russia, Red Chino

GREAT FALLS. Mont. Aug.
II (R. - Senator Mansfield.
Democrat Of Montana, said to-
might that major changes TAX
ing place behind the Iron and
Bamboo Curtains might offer
an opportunity ito begin the
long ascent to durable peace"
In such q situation. he said,
1t is "indefensible" for the
State Department to place OBJ
stacles in the way Of reporters
seeking to gather legitimate
news from inside Communist
China.
In an address prepared for
delivery before the Montana
State Press association, Sena-
tor Mansfield, a member Of the
Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee. said:
Changes are taking place
within the Soviet bloc which
promise q greater national in
dependence from MOSCOW for
the satellites than has hereto
fore been the case.
Even within the Soviet
Union. there are apparently in
ternal pressures at work which
may impel that country toward
q more rational approach to
the rest Of the world"
Senator Mansfield said the
Far East may well. be enter
ing into q period Of major
transition due to obscure pres
sures in China" as well as de-
velopments in the Japanese
economy.
He said that, even If the
State Department were to 60
ahead with an indicated modi-
fication of its restrictions on
American news coverage inside
Red China, the issue would be
much larger than whether "a
handful Of reporters" would be
allowed to 60.
He argued that the Nations
press must have the same in
dependence in foreign policy as
1t has in domestic matters and
not be used as an instrument
of State Department policy.
Foreign Obstacles Bad Enough
ut is bad enough. as you
well know, when other govern
ments place obstacles in the
path Of legitimate news gather
ing abroad" he said. 1T Is in
defensible when those obstacles
arise from policies and actions
of our own Government"
Senator Mansfield praised the
recent Eisenhower-Dulles policy
of expanding commercial and
other contacts with Commu-
mist Poland. saying it was an
improvement over "the pattern
Of sympathetic words and bold
words but no action that was
followed in Hungary"
He said greater independence !
in Eastern Europe was essential
to peace on that continent,
Senator Mansfield reiterated
previous statements that Amer |
lean foreign policy must be |
shifted away from one based |
largely on excessive fear Of the |
Soviet Union.
1T is time to recognize that |
If there are dangers to freedom |
in the theology Of communism,
there are even greater dangers
to communism in the doctrines
Of liberty" he said.
Foreign policy, II It is to
serve fully the interests Of this
country, must be based less on
fear and more on faith"
