Stadium Site Fund
Request Denied
$I.7MiIIion
Gfunt Sought
To Enlarge It

The House Appropriations
Committee refused today 10
grant a e1.2 million request for
as acres Of land the national
Park Service would like 10 have
for the new stadium site.
Noting that $50 acres Of Cow
ernment-owned land already
are available. the COMMITTEES
said Il saw no need for the
extra ground. located across
East Capitol street from the
National Guard Armory behind
some temporary Government
buildings.
Involved In the picture is an
apparent difference Of opinion
between National Park Service
Director Conrad l.. With and
the Armory board as to the
best precise stadium location.
Most Desirable" Tag
The board, which Is to con-
struct the stadium, favors the
grassy hollow Of land ringed
by Independence and Constitu-
ton avenues beside the Ana
costa River. This site Is
labeled most desirable" by
consultants whose recommen-
dations should be substantially
followed. according to the sta
dunn bill which President Ei-
senhower must yet sign.
But some Park Service ON.
cials believe the stadium would
be better set on the land, in..
Guiding the as acres asked By
Mr.. Wirth, across from the
Armory. Nothing In the bill
would prevent this.
The committee sees no
reason why q site cannot be
selected which win ohyiate the
necessity Of acquiring add.
tional land" the budget
makers report said. however.

zone Of the Disadvantages
given in the study for an all
ternate site involving the land
in question was the additional
real estate cost Of privately
owned land.
"The committee agrees with
the sponsors Of the stadium
legislation that the project
should not be q burden upon
the United States Treasury or
the taxpayers Of the country"
House committeeman said
any new costs involving the
stadium must be borne by the

eminent.
Rejection Of the bid followed
by one day final congressional
clearance Of authorization to
build the 50.000-seat arena.

In the transportation field. the
gathering was informed. One

oficials pointed out. Another
81 billion for highways would

said.
Because Of its nature and

William Z. Finley, director Of

Paul c. Watt, director Of the

But Mr.. Finley and Mr.. Watt
emphasized that there would be
