the Budget Bureau and the
President.
The group suggested a $141
million total price tag and the
borrowing of 1912 million. It
suggested a $30.5 million annual
Federal payment.
The first years installment
Of the program is already in
corporated in the proposed bud
get for the next fiscal year
starting July l. This. the city
is proposing to finance without
recourse to borrowing, and with
a SIS million Federal payment.
OF this. 50 million would come
from a backlog of So million
authorized in the last several
years but not appropriated by
Congress.
But the programs continual
ton after the next fiscal year
would be dependent on both the
borrowing authority and an in
creased Federal grant.
At present. the city does not
borrow for general funds pur-
poses. but borrowing is limited
to financing of highways and
sewer and water main construc-
ton. The proposed 500 million
loan would be a major innova-
ton.
80 Years to Repay
The borrowed money, &C
cording to the plans, would be
paid back over a period of 80
years. It would presumably
carry a nominal rate of interest.
Major construction allot-
mentS proposed by the Dunn
Committee and basically pre-
served in the official plans
were: Schools, $54 million;
storm sewers, $33 million;
public health, $10.3 million;
corrections. So million; welfare,
$4.5 million; fire department.
81 million; streets, IS million;
public library, IS million; rec
reation, $1.8 million. and civil
defense, $788,500.
The Dunn plan also included
a new West Municipal Center
Office Building taking up most
of an $18.7 million buildings
and grounds allotment.

Supt. Corning stressed that the

Pay "WOefulIx Low"
But I strongly urge that you
do not do that now--this is an

he failed to get with the
first ball. The pin-setting
device deScends again and,
through electronic memory,
resets the three pins it picked
up. The bowler bowls again.
This time, so far as the
machine is concerned, it
doesn't matter whether he
knocks them down or leaves
them standing. The sweep
ing bar pushes both standing
and toppled pins back onto
the belt and sets up 10 pins
for the next bowler.
Paul explained the econ
omy of the machines. They
are owned by American Ma
chine g. Foundry Co. The
going rate here for pin boys
is 10 cents a game, and that
is just the rental rate
charged by AMI. An elec-

"You don't understand"
Paul said. I'VE open at 8 in

felt there was enough question
about the cost factor to justify
holding up bridge construction
until the House acts on the
Senate-passed tunnel bill. He
has introduced a resolution
which would accomplish this.
Cites Tunnel Estimate
The Senator recalled that
last year the cost of a tunnel
was estimated at $25.5 million,
and that the estimate came
from 1.-The worlds greatest tun-
mel engineer, Ole Singstad."
District officials said they
had no quarrel with Mr.. Sing
stad's estimate for construction
of the tunnel itself. They OPP
posed the $25.5 million figure,
however, on grounds that ID
it provided for inadequate
approach roads and 90 it pro-
vided only four traffic lanes as
against six lanes on the bridge.
Mr.. O'Mahoney's statement
said another justification for
delaying the bridge was a re-
port of the State Departments
interest in the effect of the
bridge approaches on the new
State Department building at
Twenty-third and c streets
NV.
Charges ID. C. Rebuff
He said he understood the
State Department had asked
Interior Secretary Seaton for a
report on the bridges impact
because "the District Commits
sioners refuse to give the in
formation"
The Commissioners could not
be reached for comment on the
charge, but highway officials
said they understood District
conferences had been set with
the State Department on the
matter.
Mr.. Robertson, however, said
the bridge approaches would
not disturb the State Depart
ment layout in any respect"

Officials Surprised
City officials were caught
somewhat by surprise by the
Presidents announcement. The
announcement was included in
a message otherwise devoted to
national economic affairs.
Although the Budget Bureau
has been studying public works
legislation for some days, word
of the bureaus action had not
been expected until late this
week.

May Ask Hearing
On the basis Of past prac-
tice, the Commissioners prob
ably will ask for a hearing be-
fore q joint fiscal sub-commit-
tee of the Senate and House
District Committees, he said.
This hearing presumably will
be public, he added.
Oficials declined to disclose
the exact total Of either the
proposed spending or the sug-
gested Federal payment, or
other details Of the plan. Col.
yelling explained it was con-
sidered desirable to withhold
these details until they have
been presented to Congress.
However, with the partial dis
closure already made there APP
peared to be a possibility the
city heads would change their
minds on this question.
Col yelling, while stress
ing the necessity of maintain
ing proper relations with Con-
gress, said he felt the public
is entitled to be informed on
the plans.
The works plans, officials
have made plain, in general
closely follow a program pro-
posed last year by a 15-man

by the Commissioners to study
the works needs.

ON THE WAY OUT, he told
how this Nations Capital,
which had long been a duck
pin town (Small pins and
small balls), is experiencing a
renaissance of ten pins owing
to World War II arrivals and
the drama of big-ball bowling
on TV with pros, both men
and women, constantly maxi
ing strikes. And the auto
matte pin settlers, he said,
are making both games, duck
pins and ten pins, more
popular than ever before.
