Citing Problems
BY JAMES G. DEANE
Star stan Writer

Brig. Gen. Alvin C. yelling,
District Engineer Commissioner,
today said he feels the D. C.
Transit System will have to
supply much more thorough
details on its Seventh street
express carline proposal before
the District can consider the
plan seriously.
He cited a long list of prob
lens suggested by highway and
traffic officials in connection
with the proposal.
Gen. yelling today was
handed a report by Highway
Director John N. Robertson on
conferences held with transit
officials on the subject. His
comments followed,
o. Roy Chalk, transit presi-
dent, last week suggested that
the Seventh street carline be
converted to a rapid transit line
using tandem cars and with a
fenced-off right-of-way.
Small Time Saving Seen
Highway officials, Gen. Well
ing disclosed, have drawn from
transit officials an admission
that the proposed conversion,
as now contemplated, would
bring only a nominal" 12-l
minute saving in running time.
This, Gen. yelling said, must
be weighed against "all OF the
problems incident to the pro-
posal."
Transit officials. the Engi-
neer Commissioner said, con-
template only 10 stops on the
proposed line between Massa-
causetts avenue and the Dis
t.ict line.
Gen. yelling said the aver
ege speed on the line is now 10
miles per hour and the pro-
posed conversion would in
crease it only to Is miles per
hour. Counting a minute for
each stop, the 6-mile run would
require "a minutes. he said, or
only about IL minutes less than |
the present time.
Problems Cited
Among the problems cited by
Gen. yelling were:
The need for automatic sig
nal devices to control trafTlc
at the 10 crossings.
Coordination of these signals
with the signals on the numer-
Gus important streets crossing
the route.
Impeding of the present
crossf1owS Of both pedestrian
and vehicular traffic.
Elimination of U-turns.
Hampering of fire trucks.
Financing of street widening,
which Gen. yelling said would
have to be a minimum of 70
feet.
Coordination with new mass
transit proposals expected soon.
The North Seventh Street
Businessmen's Association al
ready has protested against the
Chalk plan in a letter to the
Commic~ioners, Gen. yelling
disclosed.

At the same time. the Labor
Departments Bureau of Labor
Statistics said that consumer
prices in Washington decreased

Lower food prices were pri-

Food prices dropped eight

U. S. Asking
Both Sides
ToCut Force
BY EARL II. VOSS
Star stan Writer

The United States has de-
vised a new plan to bring peace
to the Formosa Strait by re-
ducing-but not removing COM
pletely-military forces on both
the Nationalist-held offshore
islands and the nearby Red
Chinese mainland.
The State Department is
seeking Generalissimo Chang
Kai-shek's agreement to the
plan before 1t is formally
proposed to Red China at the
Warsaw talks.
Details of the new American
proposal were learned from
high-level diplomatic sources in
Washington.
These sources stressed that
a cease-flre, declared or UNI
declared, must precede the
proposed thinning out of forces
by both sides in the Formosa
Strait dispute.
Concept Of Dulles
Purpose of the plan, it was
explained, would be to bring
military strengths of both sides
below the provocative" level.
This proposal was said to be
the concept Secretary of State
Dulles had in mind yesterday
when he told the United Ma
tons General Assembly: I'VE
seek a prompt cease-fire and
equitable conditions which viii
eliminate provocations. -"
There would be no complete
demilitarization of the offshore
islands or the Red mainland.
Nationalist China would not be
asked to relinquiSh its Sover-
eighty over the Quemoys or
Matsu Island grouD.
Hope that Nationalist China
win accept the plan is strength
ened by indications it no longer
considers the offshore islands
! "springboard" for some flu
ture return to mainland China.
Seeks Eisenhower Pledge
President, Chang is under
stood to be insisting on a clear
public statement from Presi-
dent Eisenhower that the
United States intends to defend
the offshore islands in case the
Reds break the cease-fire.
Indications are Mr.. Eisen-
hover would be willing to give
such a commitment if there
were a ceasefire and an agree
ment by both Red and Nation
alist China to reduce their
forces in the FormoSa Strait
area below the level that could
be considered provocative"
Congress, however, m g h t
have to approve.
Presumably the reduced level
of military forces would be
about the strength at which
Nationalist and Red Chinese
governments held them in the
relatively quiet period in the
Formosa Strait from 1855 TO
