John C. Metzler, the super

Can you think Of any?"
Mr.. Metzler's answer was:
THE romance has gone
out of war.
In 1921 when the I'm

we had only newspapers and
magazines.

coverage of radio and tele-

Southern Route Asked

Fairfax County officials have
asked for a southern access
route on the grounds that the
county would get more use out
of such a road.
Mrs. Anne wilkins, chairman
of the Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors, also has protested
that use of the parkway for
an access road would ruin the
estate country.
The Northern Virginia COM
mission also moved last. night
to set UP a regional park au-
thority. A resolution providing
for establishment of the au-
thority has been prepared by
the commission and will be sent
to the local governing bodies
for action.

.Virginians Hit Plan
For ChantiIIy Route
Truffie's Impact
On Estates in
Fuirfux Feared

Northern Virginia ofiicials
are lining up for a strong fight
against using George Washing
ton Memorial parkway as an
access route to the Chantilly
airport.
The Northern Virginia Plan
ming Commission last night
called for a meeting with ofi-
cials from localities and the
State Highway Department to
discuss approach roads.
Civil Aeronautics Admins
tration officials repeatedly favor
an access road using the park
way to a point above the pro-
posed Cabin John Bridge and
then cutting across country TO
the airport.
This proposal drew sharp
criticism last night.
Charles c. Robinson. execu-
tive director of the planning
commission, said that "a lot Of
people are concerned that the
CAA, the Bureau Of Public
Roads and the National Park
Service may have reached an
agreement among themselves"
to extend the parkway to Great
Falls and use it as an access
to the airport.
Use As EXpresSway Hit
"A parkway is one thing, but
an access expressway is an
other" said Mr.. Robinson. He
said it would have a major
impact" on that part of north
east Fairfax county which now
is large estate area.
Mr.. Robinson read a letter
from Harland Bartholomew.
chairman of the National Cap
ltal Planning Commission, in
which the chairman said it
had been his personal assump-
ton that traffic from Chantilly
to Washington would use the
new Route So"
II believe a majority Of
members of this commission
were of this same opinion, and
this new proposal raises quite
a number of questions not here
tofore considered" Mr.. Bar
tholomew said.
William Moss, chairman of
the Northern Virginia COM
mission, said the commissions
highway co-ordinating commit
tee has gone on record against
using the parkway.
Mr.. Moss said the commit
tee met with CAA officials re-
Gently and were told that it is
definite the access road will
come out the north end of the
airport.

Has Compromise
On 18th St. Spun
BY GRACE BASSETT
Star Stan Writer

Representative Broyhill. Re-
publican of Virginia, today pro-
posed a compromise to free the
Fourteenth Street Bridge bill
from a year-long conference
dispute.
The legislation has been kept
under wraps since last session
by confereeS divided over a
fixed or draw span.
Spurred by congressional pas
sage Monday of a separate
Constitution avenue bridge, Mr.
Broyhill. a conferee, said he
would draft new language fol
the Fourteenth street span next
week.
He will ask for a fixed span,
favored in the original Senate
version. But to satisfy cham
pions of the draw span, he will
suggest a requirement for
minimum clearance between the
river low-water mark and the
superstructure of at least that
of the Constitution avenue
bridge.
House Approved Draw
The House last year approved
a Fourteenth street draw
mainly at the insistence OF
Representative Smith, Demo.
crat of Virginia.
Mr.. Smith, also a conferee
has not said he will abandon
the draw. But his acceptance
OF a fixed Constitution avenue
structure Monday indicated hi
would be willing to take a SINH.
lar position on the sister Pc.
tomac span.
II navigation is going TO bt
stunted all along the river, HI
said yesterday, he didn't know
what he could do about it.
A clearance on the Furteenti
street span equal to the up
stream bridge, just approved
would be about 80 feet. high
enough for most river traffic
now operating along the Po'
tomac.
Mr.. Broyhill said he would
draft the compromise propose
next week. Then he wants Il
circulate it among the six con.
ferees without having a forma
Injecting. They could approve
the language in this way with.
out going to the trouble of {
separate session at time wher
pressed by increasing congress
sional business.
Would Like to Wait
Mr.. Broyhill added he woulC
like to wait for the President
signature on the Constitution
avenue bridge bill, before sub
hitting any agreement on tn,
other span to the House or t,
the Senate.

neither physics nor chemistry courses, and mathematics and phys it's courses for BO0.OOO students are being conducted by teachers whose training has been in other fields.
 What to do about this grave prob ier1? Government, and industry are ~orking to provide scholarships, grants and the like to promote sci snce education and research. One major chemical firm, Chas. Pfizer & Cc., Inc, has pointed out the need for more science students in it's an nual report to it's 19,000 stockhold- CTS. Others also are participating in programs to stimulate science edu- cation.
 However, most of the basic work to eliminate this problem will have % be done on the community level-- ait board of education meetings, where school eurricula are decided, in bond issue votes, where academic facilities are decided, and in the home itself, wherever parental ad- vice can help youngster decide his future.
 Science is in danger in the United States, and it will remain in danger until we produce more scientists.
