Ladies' Disagree

AS q member Of the Arling-
ton League of Women Voters,
I was surprised to read a let
ter by the president Of the
Fairfax League Of Women
Voters commencing Repre-
sentative Broyhill for his
promise to support reciprocal
trade legislation-a cause in
which he has not one iota OF
influence. His votes on foreign
trade matters have been too
inconsistent, among other
reasons.
In the Republican SD Con-
gress, Mr.. Broyhill voted
with protectionistS on excep-
tions to the principle Of re-
ciprocal trade agreements. He
also voted in favor Of giving
the Tariff Commission q Re-
publican majority Of 4-3, the
first basic change in its nom
political 3-3 membership
since 1t was established.
I do not agree with Senator
Byrd on some issues, but In
all fairness, II the league
wants to publicize any single
legislator in Virginia for sup
porting reciprocal trade legis-
lation, 1t should be the power
full Senator Byrd.

Canada 5 Direct Approach

During the past few years, American
cities have looked across the border to
the north with increasing envy at the
highly effective metro" government set
up to handle regional problems in the
Toronto area. Now, the Canadian capital
city, Ottawa, is drawing similar atten-
ton for It's pioneering attack on another
phase of the metropolitan growth prob
lem-the headaches caused by the solid,
uncontrolled sprawl Of urban develop
ment In the suburbs.
Ottawa has gone straight to the
heart of the matter with a simple
decision to halt urban sprawl in its
tracks. This is being accomplished by
government acquisition of huge green
belt" of publicly owned land, completely
surrounding the present built-up Ottawa
area, from which ordinary residential
and business enterprises will be perrna-
nently excluded. Eventually, the belt viii
contain $500 acres. Part of it will be a
5,O00-acre farm and experimental live
stock station-a use to which 1900 acres
of the belt already is devoted.
Ottawa's goals in this program are
largely economic. It hopes the green belt
will halt, or at least slow down, the ever
increasing demand for expensive public
services which all central cities are
called upon to provide for burgeoning
metro areas. At the same time, 1t will
provide break in the deadly monotony
of private developments, and inevitably
force more orderly growth of the sub
urbs-all benefits of which metro areas
everywhere are becoming acutely aware.
Ottawa's planners have talked about a
green belt for years, but it was removed
from the ivory-tower dream stage only
by edict of Canada's powerful Federal
government.
The Canadian experiment has spe-
cial interest here because Washington,
like Ottawa, is national capital. No
such drastic program ever is likely to be
effected in Washington, however, for our
area is much larger and infinitely more
complex politically. But 1t at least should
stimulate greater interest in other, less
drastic, moves already under way here
to preserve open spaces. And such far
reaching plan makes one wonder If our
Capital City Is not selling its potentials
too abort by setting its sights for the
future tPo low.

However, a great deal Of planning and
work and money necessarily must 60
into the making of successful EXPOSE
ton. The proposed site is not now avail
able--although the Pentagon has de-
cided TO abandon military flights from
the Anacostia reservation. And only an
act Of Congress is likely to dispossess
the Air Force and the Navy Of the
land they still occupy SO 1t is obviously
not too early to begin preliminary prep
arations, including the seeking Of legiS-
lation to Gust the military authorities
and make the site available for fair.
After that will come the big Job Of Or
ganizing the show and obtaining world
wide participation in 1t.
The undertaking, all in all, will be
difiicult and challenging one. We wish
the Board of Trade and the new Wash
ington International Exposition, Inc,
good luck in their venture.

Only Sincerity Needed

In his welcome announcement that
the Soviet Union is prepared to join the
Western powers in negotiating ban
on nuclear weapons testing, Premier
Khrushchev stressed that such talks
should aim at ending these tests "by all
states and for all time" BY contrast,
he pointed out, the pending British
American offer to suspend testing for
one year "has no significance because
this is exactly the time needed to pre-
pare the next SERIES"
In sense, Mr.. Khrushchev is cor
rect in minimizing the value Of one
year suspension at a time when the
United States has completed the current
phase of its major testing and when
Britain will have done so before the pro-
posed negotiations are scheduled to
begin on october 81. The fact remains,
however, that President Eisenhower and
Prime Minister Macmillan also proposed
an indefinite extension of the ban, on
q year-by-year basis, If certain other
reasonable conditions prevail. These
conditions are: ~ That an agreed in
Spection system is installed and working
effectively; (2) that satisfactory prog
ress is being made toward major and
substantial arms control measures"
Meeting the first condition is es-
sential, Of course. If test ban is to be
meaningful or acceptable to either side.
Fortunately, the prospects for such an
effective inspection system were bright
ened materially by the accord reached
by East-West scientists in the recent
Geneva technical negotiations Leaving
to the political authorities of the re-
spective governments the problem Of
agreeing on augmentation, the scien-
lists concluded that 1t is technically
feasible" to detect violations Of a testing
ban and recommended q worldwide
monitoring and control system for this
purpose. As for the second condition,
it is obvious that suspension Of tests
is not in itself measure of disarma-
ment or arms limitation. In principle,
however, 1t may be considered step
toward this objective-if there is Soviet
willingness to seek the satisfactory
progress" mentioned by the Western
spokesman.
In summary, 1t seems fair to assume
that the latest Khrushchev statement
although including some of his familiar
distortions about Western policy and
motives-brings little closer the pos
sibility of an East-West agreement on
ending the threat Of worldwide nuclear
holocaust. There should be universal
hope that the proposed October 81 nego-
tiations actually take place and that
they lead, not only to the end Of the
nuclear weapons testing but eventually,
even If indirectly, to the end of this
deadly competition in ornaments. For
"all states and for all time" this would
indeed be the greatest attainment.

Worlds Fair Here?

No Credit to Anybody

While signing legislation providing
for Government regulation of private
pension and welfare funds, President
Eisenhower has expressed some harsh
criticism of the measure for its Short
comings" 1t "does little else" he said,
than to establish precedent of Federal
responsibility in this area. To be effec-
tive, he concluded, 1t will require
extensive amendment" by another
Congress.
In brief, the bill requires the filing
of annual reports with the Secretary Of
Labor by all nom Government pension
and welfare plans, and making these
reports available to benef1ciarieS. PEN
altieS are provided for failing to file
accurately, or for not supplying the In
formation to beneflciaries. Among the
Presidents complaints, however, are that
the law requires only summary state
ments," that there is no provision for
uniform Interpretation Of the bilPS
technical terms, no investigatory or
enforcement powers given the Labor
Department and no provisions for deal
ing with "the most fragrant abuses, such
as embezzlement and kickbacks."
The affected pension and welfare
plans cover approximately IS million
working men and women. Total re-
sources in the funds are estimated at
more than $50 billion. While admins
tration Of some of these funds has been
above criticism, the shocking misuse
of others through INSTRUMENTATION,
embezzIement or application to evil
purposes was disclosed by the Mcclellan
Committee of the Senate. As conse-
uuence, the Senate passed regulatory
legislation by an $50 vote. 1t was only
after long delay, however, that the House
passed an even milder bill and the
measure reaching the President was
much closer to the House version.
Actually, the blame for this meas
ure's shortcomings and for Congress
failure to pass the Kennedy-Ives labor
reform bill may be widely distributed.
Employer organizations, as well as
powerful labor forces, fought both at
various stages. Neither political party,
nor the administration itself, has
grounds for boaSting about its courage
or performance If the interests of the
IS million workers have not been pro-
tected by the pension measure, neither
has the public welfare been served by
the bipartisan politicking which has sur
rounded all of this legislative area in
recent months.

The rationale behind Virginia's
massive resistance" program emerged
from Senator ByrdS speech on Saturday
at his annual picnic in Berryville.
Senator Byrd and the political or
ganization which he heads are lighting
a delaying action, playing for time
against enforcement of what they re-
gard as the Supreme Courts illegal"
school decision. The Virginia Senator
was frank in stating why time iswanted.
With reference to the court, he said:
I'VE know the Warren court is wrong.
It's terrible decision could be reversed.
It should be reversed. I hope 1t win be
reversed"
In other words, there is no sugges-
ton here, and there has never been any
pretense, that Virginia wants time to
prepare for compliance. The whole
purpose is to gain time in the hope that,
somehow, the decision will be reversed.
This, we believe, is vain hope. The
interests of Virginia, in the long run,
would be better served by It's political
leaders if they. were making reasonable
and sensible preparation for the inevi-
table. Senator Byrd said one thing,
however, which was both wise and
proper. II hope" he said, I'VE shall
avoid occasion for violence or rioting.
/ hope there will be no revival Of the
Ku Klux Khan or any similar organiza-
ton"
This, as Virginia prepares to open
its schools, is both sound and timely
.admonition.

Likes u. S. Exhibit

Americas contribution to
the Brussels Exposition has
been debated all the way
from, How much should
Congress appropriate for a
United States pavilion?" to
sale Of the controversial hot
dog at the pavilion lunch
counter" Everyone has
watched and listened with
great interest as solutions
for the many problems have
been worked out. Many peo-
pie have expressed their views
as to how the United States
pavilion should express the
American way Of life.
Through all the criticism /
wonder If those who have not
had the opportunity to visit
the fair have received a cor
rect idea as to the impress
sion the United States pa
vilion gives a visitor.
My first view Of the fair
was from the air, at night.
The United States pavilion
was a beautiful sight, glow
ing as though the soft yell
low light were escaping
through the fine. lacelike
construction Of the circular
wall. The next day ! entered
the pavilion to find a spa
cious, friendly atmosphere
prevailing. No doubt Amer
leans have read some strong
criticisms of the exhibits.
/ believe the average foreign
visitor found them to be
quite adequate since they
are supplemented by a fash
ion show, presentations at
the American Theater and a
short tour of the United
States via Circirama-a mo-
tion-picture travelogue pro-
jected on q 360-degree screen.
The sum Of these attractions
makes the United States pa
vilion perhaps the most pop
ular pavilion at the fair. My
personal opinion is that
America is certainly very
well represented.

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

If a wasp gets inside, in
stead of just singing you
on the neck and calling it a
day, never leave him where
he is.
Shuck the garment com.
pletely, no matter the COM
pany, and get him out Of
there. because he can sting
and sting again.
And each jab seems to
have the potency Of the last
jab.
Temp Jones once got a
wasp UP his left trouser leg,
and'stepped right out Of them
in the garden. much to the
horror of all beholders.
He was, however, quite
correct in his procedure.
The sooner a wasp is got
ten rid of, the better of it
and the prey will be.
Mild ammonia solution Is
the old standard. .at-
Flood the stung part, thus
alkalizing the skin surface.
Application of some stand
ard staining antiseptic comes
next, despite the fact that
the colorful applications are
not as popular or held in such
high repute as in the old
days.
We recall when a small boy
on our block was sliding down
the street on a scooter, we
believe it was called, when
he slid off, and scraped his
back from the waist to the
neck.
Application of a red stain
gave him all the appearance
of an Indian on the war path.
Memorandum: This same
small boy is now over s feet
6 inches, and is a member Of
the United States Marines.

The itching of some wasp
bites is a special thing.
Here nothing will do it ex-
cept time, but popular anes-
thetic applications may help,
depending upon the person
stung.
Some people, you know, are
very much more itchy than
others. Doctors say it has
something to do with their
"itch Threshold" whatever
that is.
If the pharmaceutical in
duStry can't keep the biters
and stingers off you, they may
be able to offer you some rem
edy to stop the itching, al
though Temp Jones says he
has never found one.
He has discovered some
that will help, but as for
stopping the itch altogether,
he says, only time and pa
thence will do that.

An article June 20, 1858, in
the Sunday Travel Section
stated that q pirate by the
name Of Capt. Charles VIII
son buried treasure on Chin
colleague Island, Va, about
l760 and was captured by
Capt. William Kidd. Kidd
was hanged as a pirate on
May %. 17ol. and now, after
doing research, I can say
that the so-called letter and
chart which this so-called
Pirate Wilson left to his
brother George in Charleston,
s. c.. do not exist in the
ONCE Of British Naval Rec
ords. So says the head Of the
historical section. and it does
not exist in the library Of this
office, so says a letter from
them dated July %, 1858.
They are at loss as to how
this information could have
been put in your paper. A
letter dated August 6, 1858,
also states that the letter and
chart do not exist in the
public records Office in Lon
don. Out Of the IS various
books on record dealing with
pirates. Capt. Wilson does
not rate mention in any one
Of them. I point out this in
formation to you for one
reason. Today. many people
have taken upon themselves
the hobby Of treasure hunt
ing and every time some ar
ticle comes along stating that
q certain treasure exists,
many a novice has spent his
last cent in trying to run it
down. My hobby has been to
prove or disprove that certain
treasures exist, and as Of now
I say there is no treasure on
Chincoteague Island. placed
there by Capt. Wilson, If he
ever did exist. I do say some
treasures are buried in this
country, and perhaps some
day you viii hear Of one Of
them being found.
