A Southwest liquor dealer to-

his proposal to move to 612

Morris Silverman said his
store at 500 Seventh street S.W

and this prohibition against
other uses had to be removed.
Both the Farmers and Fish
Markets-in terms of time
are landmarks. But they are
landmarks of the past, which
largely have outlived their use
fitness to the city. This was
the conclusion of city officials,
concurred in by Congress.
They will make way for these
Improvements:
/. Completion Of the South
west freeway, which will run
along the line of F street S.W.
through the Farmers Market.
2. Constructio nof a Wash
ington Channel bridge to cno-
meet the freeway with the
Fourteenth. street bridges over
the Potomac.
8. Realignment of Maine
avenue. in an arc northward,
to make more Waterfront space
available for new uses under
the Southwest redevelopment
plan. While this realignment
is under construction, Maine
avenue traffic will be routed
temporarily through the pres
ent Fish Market area.
1859 Target
The District intends OF de-
molish the markets by October
1859 in order to push ahead
with the expressway programs
In approving the razing,
Congress cited an extensive
District study which concluded
that the Farmers Market over
the years has pulled further
and further away from its orig
inal purpoSe-to provide space
for Virginia and Maryland
farmers who wanted a place
to sell the produce they raised
Instead, the report said, it has
become "of negligible import
ance" to the city, and that no
specific replacement for it is
needed in the Southwest.
AS to the Fish Market. Con-
gresS noted in a report that
space will be provided under
the redevelopment plan for new
restaurants which will retain
the Seafood and waterfront
character which so long has
been with that area.

Seek 1000 Acres
The bill would authorize
acquisition of an additional
1000 acres to augment exist
ing park property. A provision
IN the companion measure
passed by the Senate last year
gives assurance that the park
development would not inter-
fere with other development of
the Potomac's water resources
such as storage dams and
reservoirs.
The Marylander said that he
intends to reintroduce the bill
on the first day of the next con.

sistance again of Senator Beall.
Republican Of Maryland, who
introduced the companion
measure in the current session.
Pointing out that the Interior
Committee now has a full rec

One objection can prevent
Speaker Rayburn from calling

Of Iowa, objected.
The Speaker wants permits

permit a 40-minute debate on

handed the House on a take
it-or-leave-it basis, barring
amendments.
To get unanimous consent to
this tactic, Democratic leaders
let Representative Martin, mi

sets, Gull through a list of 81
bills awaiting House action. Mr..
Martin approved 10 of them
late yesterday.
Just before the House ad-

The

Remarkable Cleric
By GEORGE KENNEDY


The Rambler was swept
into the Interfaith Day

activities yesterday.
He was guest at a lunch
con at the willard at which
Interfaith awards were pre-
sented to Attorney General
Rogers, Daniel W. Bell, presi-
dent of the American Secu-
rity and Trust Co.; George
Jessel of stage, screen, radio
and television, and Rocky
Marciano, former heavy
weight champion.
He did not get to the Inter-
faith baseball game at Grit
fifth Stadium last night to
see the Washington Senators
beat the Detroit Tigers, 3 to /.
He was writing this during
the game.
1t. occurred to him that
this annual jamboree spon-
sored by Almas Temple, the
Knights of Columbus and
the members of B'nai Birth
might not have been pos
sible, even at this late date,
If it had not been for the
work Of a man who died last
week.
The man was Arson Phelps
Stokes, one of the canons
of Washington Cathedral,
who retired 10 years ago.
In a letter to The Star
yesterday, the Rev. DR..
Albert Joseph Mccartney,
emeritus minister of the Ma
tional Presbyterian Church,
(the Eisenhower church,,
told how Canon Stokes was
the organizing genius" Of
the Committee on Religious
Life in the Nations Capital
"a committee composed of
Protestant, Catholic and
Jewish clergymen.

AS HE HAD nine children
and liked to entertain, he
needed a large house in the
country. So he built Shadow
brook, a great stone struc-
ture that dominated one of
the Berkshire hills above
Lenox, Mass, and dYarfed
the efforts of other mil
lionaireS. 1t had 100 rooms.
Cleveland Amory, who
coined Proper BoStonianS,"
tells this story in his book,
THE Last Resorts" When
the future canon was an
undergraduate at Yale in the
class of 1896, he telegraphed
his mother that he was COM
ing up with some '96 men for
the week end. Perhaps the
telegraph company dropped
the apoStrophe. At any rate
his mother became alarmed
and promptly wired back,
Many guests here already.

Men who knew him say
that all this fascinating
worldlineSS of his background
was unimportant.
In the summers of his
retirement he lived in the
structure that had been the
dairy of Shadowbrook, which
became a Jesuit novitiate.
Much of the writing of
his major work, Church
and State in the United
States" was done in what
had been the icehouSe of
the estate.
He lived to see his son and
nameSake become Episcopal

Association. This group repre-
sents 81 independent business
men.
Mr.. Multer issued the report
with the approval of seven
other members of the commit
tee.
Attack on Chalk
This majority sentiment re-
jected a still-earlier report on
local sightseeing written by
Committee Chairman Patman,
Democrat of Texas. The Pat
man report attacked D. C.
Transit President o. Roy Chalk
for monopolistic practices
against his smaller competitors.
The Multer report disputed
these findings and said, in eff
feet, Congress was meddling in
matters subject to other Fed
eral and District regulatory
agencies.
Mr.. Multer announced to-
day, after a fifth meeting of
committee members without
the chairman's consent, that
sessions would be resumed on
September Is.
Like those preceding it, this
will be an unofficial
trump session." Chairman
Patman declared. He said, how
ever, he would consider filing
the Multer report today with
the House clerk. 1t will explain
the views of the majority of
members, he stressed, but still
will not qualify as committee
action.
Mr.. Swan maintained that
Mr.. Multer had clouded the
real issues of the committees

fog of words" The Multer re-
port chose to ignore charges

robbed" him of his concession
at the Stratford Hotel by pay
ing S per cent more in commits
sionS. The contract loss sliced
$500 from Mr.. Swann's total
annual revenue of $4,000, he
said.
Sightseeing association mem
bers also objected to Mr.. Chalks
assignment of street statesmen
to solicit business in front of
hotels where other sightseeing
companies have established Of
fees.
Chester M. Atwood, president
of Atwood Transport Lines,
maintained the Multer report
made a mockery of the pur-
poses of the Small Business
Committee-namely, to aid
small business.
Reply by Burroughs
For example, Mr.. Multer
does not answer or even discuss
my charge that D. c. Transit
has used its monopoly profits and
tax exemption to grant rate re-
auctions which have cost me at
least $4,000 worth of orders"
Major target of the Multer
report, Henry Burroughs, presi-
dent of the Gray Line, Inc, said
he resented being singled out as
the principal complainant
against D. c. Transit. The Null
ter report totally ignored COM
plants of the association mem
berS representing the bulk of
sightseeing operators in town,
he said.

ANSON PHELPS STOKES

ANSON PHELPS STOKES
was a very unusual man
but no one would gather
that from reading the
obituaries. The stories did
not mention that he was a
tall man with a singularly
long rectangular face and
that he always had not only
a mustache but also a spade
beard. And they did not
mention that he was prob
ably the wealthiest Ameri-
can ever to take Holy Orders.
While a child he had in
herited SIS million from his
grandfather. That had be-
came Sc million by the time
he was 26, and in that year
he was given another IS
million by his father.
But these sums hardly
suggest the life he gave up
on entering the church. The
Episcopalian Stokes, who
merely had millions, lived
the life of the social leaders
of their day, in contrast with
the auSterity of the Baptist
Rockefellers who had more
than a billion.
His father, Arson Phelps
Stokes who had founded the
Phelps Dodge Corp, one of
the worlds great copper con-
Germs, and then the Phelps
Stokes bank, had a large
town house on Madison ave-
nue. on Murray Hill near
]. P. Morgan's home. He
had a large suburban place,
"the Brick House" at Moro
ton, Conn. He had ocean,
going yachts that called for
large crews, the Clytie, the
Mermaid and the Sea Fox.
