speak, attended the session.
Mr.. Broyhill added that he
is preparing legislation off,

nation, Washington Interna-

ised he will be in Congress next

He pointed to a decision for
construction of duplex housing

such Federal encroachment
But he praised officials who
worked on the selection of the

That is, the players in the

Legal SnarI
Continues in
S.W. Transfer
RIA Still Must Puy
Taxes on Lund
1t Won't Use
BY GEORGE BEvERIDGE
star star Writer


District and Federal officials
said today they were uncertain
about future efforts to iron out
a complex legal snarl which is
preventing the transfer of land
to public agencies in the South
west for highways and ofice
buildings.
Involved is land bought by the
Redevelopment Land Agency
and intended to be resold to
the District for the Southwest
freeway and to the General
Services Administration for
new Federal Office buildings.
Transfer Held Up
The land now has been &C,
CURED and officials are anxious
to take it of RLA'S hands. The
land transfer is held UP, how
ever, by a Housing and Home
Finance Agency ruling which
requires the GSA and the Dis
trict to sign covenants on use
of the land-which certain Of
flcials feel they are not per-
mitted to do under present law.
A provision to Strengthen cut
the Snarl was considered by
Congress but failed as part of
the omnibus housing bill killed
by the House.
Meanwhile, RIA officials say
they are stuck with payments
of thousands of dollars a year
for taxes and interest on money
used to buy the land-respon-
sibilitieS that would be lifted
when the land is transferred.
OfiiciaI Is Hopeful
One District official said he
hoped an agreement can be
worked out with RIA for con-
struction to go ahead on the
Ifreeway even though RIA re-
tains ownership of the land-in
THE hope that Congress will
clear the transfer snarl early
next year. Such an arrange
Iment already has been worked
out, he said, for construction of
the eastern part of the free
way-already under way be-
tween South Capitol and Fourth
streets S.W.
Another possibility, officials
said, is that HHFA might mod
lily its ruling to permit the
transfer to go ahead immedi-
ately. The HHFA, however, was
understood to feel that the
matter should be cleared up by
congress.

Inside, men behind a
counter were busy answering
teleph o n es and checking
records to be sure that only
old customers were getting
midfield seats.
The wall behind them was
decorated with a row of
framed drawings Of faces of
Indians and in front Of the
counter was a bright bronze
casting of a hand upright in
front Of a Hopi tapestry Of
the four seasons.
1t was a tribal fetish that
called for veneration. Letters

Chief Hazard
Where specifically does the menace lie? You've prob
ably heard warnings recently but want to spell
out the dangers involved so that parents may know
the answers when this new problem comes up as it
will in thousands Of homes this year.
The chief hazard lies in the simple fact that practically
anyone can go out and buy the materials for a home
made rocket, complete with fuel that explodes!
The casing, or body, is fashioned from cardboard
cylinder Of some kind, any standard aluminium pipe
even a length of baIsa wood.
And what's far more to the point, the youngsters
get the propelants used by the big rocket
panies but they can obtain some darned good sub
stitutes
Explosive mixtures can be concocted from everyday
household materials, plus chemicals which readily
