Lives Were Saved

1t has been said repeatedly by safety
authorities that If their efforts resulted
In the saving Of even one life, they would
feel rewarded. 1t was with feeling Of
great satisfaction, therefore, that the
National Safety Council announced a 3
per cent decline in the highway death
toll for 1857. Certainly the council and
the thousands Of State, county and city
officials allied in the Nationwide cam
paign to make driving safer share much
Of the credit for the improvement in the
traf1c record.
The 8 per cent drop in number Of
traffic fatalities meant that 1928 fewer
persons were killed on the highways last
year than in 1856, when 39628 men,
women and children died in automobile
accidents. The decline was all the more
notable because there were more auto
mobiles travelling last year on more miles
of highways than ever before. The
council attributed the decrease in deaths
to a combination of safety education,
carried on by many private organizations
and official agencies, and better enforce
ment of traffic laws. The results last
year justify even greater education and
enforcement efforts this year, for last
years death total of $500 still was
shockingly and needlessly high.

Hold 1t Up!

The House ought to shelve the con-
troversial Freedom Shrine bill. That
would be advisable, in view of the
mounting opposition to the proposal in
its present form.
Approval at this time would be
premature for several reasons:
Neither the Fine Arts Commission
nor the National Capital Planning Com
mission as yet has had an opportunity
to pass on the final design OF the So
called wall" Both agencies are still
waiting for specific drawings or models,
which would help to decide whether
Or not the project properly should be
placed at the Arlington end of the Mall
axis.
The National Freedom Shrine Foun-
dation itself is uncertain as to the Anal
design and magnitude of the monument.
Spokesman for the foundation, taking
cognizance of strong objections from
several sources to the originally planned
90 foot-high walled Enclosure adjacent
to Arlington National Cemetery, have
announced that the structure is being
scaled down." Certainly, before Con-
gresS gives an OK, the public is entitled
to know precisely what the foundation
proposes to erect.
It is by no~meanS certain that the
undertaking will be carried through to
completion, once 1t is started. Repre-
sentative Aspinall, sponsor of the meas
ure in the House, has said he would be
willing to amend the bin to prevent the
start of construction until at least IS
million of the ultimate goal, whatever
It is, has been raised by popular SUBJ
scription. The goal until recently was
$3.50 million. Mr.. AspinalI has said the
amount may be reduced to SIS million.
Either goal IS q lot of money 10 raise BY
soliciting pennies from school children.
It would be a serious mistake to start
building a monument on the Arlington
hillside until all the money needed to
complete it is in hand.
The Veterans of Foreign Wars has
raised point that needs most careful
consideration by Congress. The area
sought for the monument once was re-
served for future expansion Of Arlington
Cemetery. The time nears when that
expansion will be necessary. Any Free
dom Shrine would block 1t.
None Of these objections was con-
sidered by the Senate when it hastily
approved the legislation last August.
And the House should refuse to be
rushed into approving it until such
objections have been satisfactorily
answered.

Cities Are Not Museums

In his poetic, philosophic Summer
in Italy," Sean o'Faolin makes a point
that might. be soothing to the wounds
resulting from Route 240's projected in
vasion of Washington.
"CitieS," Mr.. O'Faolin writes of
Rome, one Of the worlds oldest and
greatest, "are not museums. On the
contrary, he goes on to explain, they are
living organisms. AS such, they are sub
ject to all the laws Of growth, including
the necessity to leave behind the pleas
ant things of youth in order to face the
singing realities Of maturity.
The notion that "cities are not
museums" may be small consolation for
those who are directly affected by the
blight" Of progress. Nevertheless, it is
a reality summed UP in unsteady visit
full words by Mr.. O'Faolin.

CoIIeqe Site Imposse

The surprising decision of the Board
of Visitors of the University of Virginia
to ignore public preference in the choice
of site for Northern Virginia Branch
of the university does not end the con-
troversy. Almost certainly the dispute
will be carried to the General Assembly,
which controls appropriations for such
projects. The continued impasse could
result in the shelving of the whole sub
ject until the next session of the Legis-
lature.
The university board has right, OF
course, to make It's own choice Of site
for a permanent home of the extension
college, now temporarily housed In an
old school house at Baileys Crossroads.
Since success of the undertaking will de-
pend on enrolment and popular sup
port, however, it is hard to understand
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-02-04

why the board insisted on q location
near Herndon that had been opposed by
nearly all governmental groups in near
by Virginia. The Herndon site was con-
sidered too far from the center of popu-
lation to attract students--to whom
Washington colleges are easier of ac-
cess.
All counties and cities represented
on the newly organized Board Of Control
for the branch college had favored the
Ravensworth site near Springfield, IN a
location convenient to students living
in most of the thickly populated por-
tons of Arlington and Fairfax Counties.
Apparently on the theory that half a
loaf is better than none, the Arlington
County Board has voted an eleventh.
hour agreement to the previously-d
approved Herndon site. But hope of
similar reversal of attitude by all juris-
dictions concerned is very slim. In fact,
there is talk now of inviting other uni
versities to build branch on the RAJ
vensworth site. Whether the area could
support two such colleges is uncertain,
however. What is certain is that the one
most conveniently located would have
the best chances Of having a full en-
r0llment.

Thow in Antorctico

Americans and Russians have Just
had dne time together at q sort Of
bottomS-up summit meeting, the sum-
NIT being near the South Pole, way down
under the world, at the main Soviet
scientific base in Antarctica. The two
groups, both working on projects con-
nected with the International Geophys-
ical Year, have found it easy to generate
spirit of good fellowship, and although
the temperature is exceedingly low in
that region, they have enjoyed a real
social thaw in the cold war. They have
exchanged toasts in vodka and cham
payne; they have shown each other Hol-
lywood-produced and Moscow-produced
movies; and they have parted, after
hours Of pleasant conversation, in q
spirit Of mutual respect and friendship,
without any apparent trace Of reciprocal
distrust.
Unfortunately, however, this partic-
ular kind of Soviet-American meeting,
with its agenda consisting Of little more
than simple acts of hospitality and So
ciability, is not In the same class with
the one sought by the Kremlin. For a
heads-of- governmen summit confer
ence calls for much more than friendly
talk and amiable gestures. 1t calls for
willingness by all parties concerned to
arrive at substantive agreements with
built-in safeguards against violations
and evasions-the sort Of willingness
that Nikita KhruShchev and his COL
leagues have thus far failed to display.
Still, as indicated at the South Polar
get-together, Russians in general are
as human as we are, and not less inclined
to want trustworthy peace in world
rid Of the poisons Of mutual suspicion
and fear. This feeling is widespread
: enough everywhere to encourage the
hope that Moscow's rulers will yet be
persuaded to make such peace plssible.

Critical Zoninq Decision

The District Zoning Commission
should consider with great care its
decision on the effective date Of the
city'S new coming code.
The commission already has de-
termined, behind closed doors, the de-
tailed form Of the new coming rules. II
is expected to disclose its decisions soon.
There is great uncertainty, however,
about their impact on private develop
ers who already have building projects
in various stages of reconstruction
planning. Will these projects automat-
ically be invalidated by the new rules?
Will additional building permits be
issued only on the basis Of the revised
coming? Will building permit applica-
tionS-already filed under existing zon-
ing-be processed according to the new
code, or the old one? In view of these
circumstances, it has been suggested
that a long, indefinite moratorium be
declared on the new codes effective
date. That, however, is dubious pro-
posal. If the new coming rules are
worthwhile, they should be enforced as
rapidly as practicable. If not, they
should not be adopted at all.
There are some developers, how
ever, who in good faith have proceeded
with the preparation of building plans
under existing coming regulations, and
1t is altogether possible that, in such
instances, requirement to comply with
the new rules would cause unreasonable
hardship and expense. These cases do
require special consideration. It maybe
that such hardships cannot be avoided
by fiat rule, and that they should
be considered on the basis Of their
individual circumstances and exceptions
be made on what the facts show.
There is no question that uncer-
tainty and confusion about the new
coming provisions have created Difficult
ties for the business community. That
may be unavoidable in revision of
coming. The important thing now, how
ever, is that these dif1icult questions be
resolved as quickly and as reasonably
as possible so that everyone will know
exactly where he stands.

Federal School Aid

County alone about SIS mil

Modern Secession

It is all very we'll for the

his henchmen to provide for
the closing Of public schools
in the event they are re-
quired to abide by the Con-
stitution of the United
States. Having lived of the
public trough for all these
years. they. can well afford
to use our tax money to send
their children Cor grandchil-
dren) to private schools. We
taxpayers don't have 1t so
easy.
I suggest that 1t is highly
possible that several thou
sand Of US taxpayers may
find 1t inconvenient to pay
our taxes II the Governor
and his henchmen insist
upon this modern version Of
secession. After all, most Of
US are citizens Of the United
States. and it is our impress
sion that the issue Of seces-
sion was settled at Appa-
mattox q long time ago; II
IL wasn't, let's settle it again.

Cautions Dulles

I should like to come to
Mr.. Hagerty's aid in this
growing controversy over his
recent television statement
concerning our foreign pol
icy. I am convinced that he
is not at fault If 1t appears
that he has taken one road
with regard to the proposed
summit meeting and Mr..
Dulles the opposite one.
Had Mr.. Dulles been more
alert before leaving for An
kara he would have asked
Mr.. Hagerty for a complete
and comprehensive briefing
and full instructions. down
to the minutest detail, in the
delicate matter Of the sum-
nit meeting. BY not asking
Mr.. Hagerty to brief him,
Mr.. Dulles has caused US to
lose face with our enemies.
our allies. to say nothing
about the so-called uncom-
mitted peoples who are still
perched upon a "wait-and-
see" fence.
While Mr.. Dulles careless
ness has caused little. If any
confusion or disturbance in
the minds Of people over here
because most Of US know
who runs the Nation-those
abroad might enormously ac-
quire the notion that Mr..
Dulles, and not Mr.. Hagerty,
is our Secretary Of State;
that Mr.. Dulles, and not Mr..
Haeerty, speaks for the Presi-
dent in matters Of foreign
policy. Mr.. Dulles should be
advised to exercise greater
caution in the future.
