In his petition Mr.. Chalk
did not indicate how much the
proposals could be expected to
add to the company's annual
gross operating revenue, which
in its first year amounted to
slightly more than $25.6 mil
lion. He estimated later, how
ever. that the addition would
lie between 100000 and $780,
900 annually.
About half of the company's
patrons now pay cash fares,
the transit head estimated.
In the year ended last Au-
gust the company carried 176,-
COL 500 passengers. While this
was some 100000 or IL per
cent fewer than Capital Trans
it's last year, the drop was
much less marked than Capital
Transit experienced in its final
several years.
Mr.. Chalk said he hopes this
relatively favorable trend will
continue. But he noted that
for January through March
patronage Jagged sufficiently to
reduce net income $310,500
from the level of the cores
ponding months last year.
For its first year the Chalk
firm earned a net income of
slightly more than $500. 900.
1t has paid one dividend of
100000.
Hopes for 81 Million
The transit head said he
hopes the company will net ST.
million this year.
The District transit system
has had 10 fare increases in the
last rs years. In 1888 it had a
l0-cent cash fare, a 81 weekly
pass, tokens at four for 80
cents, and a three-cent school
fare.
The weekly pass was dropped
in 1854, when permits were in
troduced. School fares were
made 7l2 cents in 1855.
Tokens we're abandoned tenn
porarily in l947 but restored a
year later. For token-users,
Mr.. Chalk'S proposal of a fiat
20-cent cash fare would mean
a fare increase of a penny a
ride, or about five per cent.
The proposed 10-cent school
fare, half the adult cash fare,
is the maximum allowed by
law.

NAT0 Chiefs
Favor Doubled
Europe Force

PARIS. April l6 tH1.-NATo's
defense ministers agreed unan-
imously today that Western
ground strength In Europe
must be doubled and their
forces equipped with arms
that can deliver nuclear war
heads against a Communist at
tack.
Speaking In succession, the
ministers from the North At
lantic treaty countries approved
in principle the report sub
mitted by NATo's supreme
commander In Europe. United
States Gen. Lauris Norstad. He
said he needed at least % to
30 ground divisions In Europe
and at present has only about
half that number.
Persons attending the closed
meeting said some ministers
expressed doubt the money
could be found to give Gen.
Norstad what he wants. But
all gave their unanimous back
ing to the report.
Conference Next Month
The recommendations 60 to
the NATO foreign ministers
conference in Copenhagen next
month. II approved there. It
will be up to the Is individual
governments to carry them out.
Considerable opposition back
home was anticipated. since the
popular trend today is toward a
slackening Of the arms race with
Russia. NATO's goal for years
has been 80 divisions.
Gen. Norstad also recon-
mended that the NATO force
be trained in the use Of double
purpose weapons. particularly
rockets. equipped with conven-
tional warheads but which
could be converted to nuclear
weapons in the event Of an at
tack.
United States Defense Secre-
tary Neil McElroy assured the
Ministers that the United
States would furnish the neces-
sary nuclear grepower If Con-
gresS provides the funds. The
United States is now barred by
law from giving its allies nu-
clear warheads but plans to
stockpile them in Europe for
quick use in time of war.
Second Day of Talks
Today was the second day of
the three-day conference OF
Defense Ministers, called to
check up on the implementa-
ton of the directiveS worked
out by President Eisenhower
and the other NATO govern
ment heads at their summit
conference last December.
The Defense Ministers also
approved in principle plans by
seven Of the European mem
bers of the alliance to CO.
ordinate their development and
production Of weapons. The
seven are Britain. France, West
Germany, Italy. Belgium, the
Netherlands and Luxembourg.

Modern Devices
Boost Interest in
Language Study
BY the Associated Press

A revolution in the teaching
OF modern languages is under
way in United States schools
as a result of new mechanical
and electronic devices.
Announcing this today. the
United States ONCE of Educa-
ton said language laboratories
designed to help students learn
and speak foreign languages
more rapidly have doubled in
number in the last two years.
A study released today re-
ports that more than 200 COL
leges and universities and ap-
proximately so high schools
have special rooms for Ian
guage instruction.
Most Of these laboratories.
the study said. are equipped
with semisoundproof booths
where individual students listen
to tape recorded lessons
through earphones. At care-
fully spaced pauses on the
tape. students may speak into
a microphone to record imita-
tons and answer questions.
Later they play back the re-
cordlng and evaluate their own
responses.
Photographs. movies and
other Institutional aids also
are used.
The study said teachers who
participated in the survey ex-
pressed approval of the new
approach. 1t can enable in
structors to teach a greater
number Of students and also
provides what some teachers
consider a more stimulating
approach to language than the
old methods emphasizing gram
mar and translation.
