The concern Of Representa-

was that the bill was reported
to the floor in both houses
without a hearing.
II legislation fails to clear

1t calls for acceleration of
that portion Of the national

tense highways in a 40-mile

Mr.. Broyhill reported. is TO
promote more rapid dispersal
Of the population in event Of
enemy attack and TO provide
the road network necessary for
the proper functioning of the
new Chantilly Airport"
The spokesman said the Sen

next couple of days, probably
by Senator Byrd. Democrat Of
Virginia.
Meanwhile. improvement Of

county before planning public
service facilities for the Chan

officials after Chairman Anne
wilkins said planning for sewer
service. roads and coming in the
area should be a cooperative
undertaking with the local ju-
risdiction. The airport site Is
partly in Fairfax County and
partly in Loudoun County.
Mrs. wilkins said that the
report to the President recon-
mending the Chantilly site
calls for construction of q
sewage treatment plant which
would discharge into a stream
flowing north into the Potomac
River above the District water
supply.
Seeks Proper Zoning
There is no excuse for put
ting the treatment plant on
the north side of the airport
where it might contribute to
pollution of the water supply"
she said.
Proper coming for the area
around the airport could be
worked out on a cooperative
basis. Mrs. wilkins stated. She
said that the Doolittle report
on airports made a few years
ago recommended certain zon-
ing restrictions in approach
zones,
