Changes in
SW Projects
1000 Dwellings
Added; Greenwo,
And MoII Altered

The National Capital Plan
ming Commission today ap-
proved extensive changes in
the plan for development of
Southwest Area c.
The most important of the
changes provides for an in
crease in the number of DWELL
ing units from about $500 to
$500. Other changes include:
A slight change in the align
ment Of the proposed Tenth
Street Mall to make it per-
pendicular to Independence
avenue.
A provision in the Greenway,
east of Maine avenue, for a
number Of churches, recreation
facilities, a playhouse and other
non-proflt facilities.
Increasing the height limita-
ton on buildings in the Town
Plaza area from 80 to ITO feet.
The changes which permit
the construction of more dwell
ing units provide for between
300 and $50 town houses or
flats and a number Of elevator
apartment units in the area
north of M street.
South of M street, the
changes would provide for be-
tween $50 and 500 row houses
and walkup apartments.
John Searles, director of the
Redevelopment Land Agency,
said these changes approved by
the planning commission today
also would have to be approved
by the Housing and Home
Finance Agency. He said this
review and approval would re-
quire about As days.
Mr.. Searles emphasized that
these changes would not delay
start of construction on the
Town Center "a shopping
area and apartment complex
scheduled to begin the latter
part of this year. He said a
waiver already has been OBJ
tanned to go ahead on this
project despite the changes
now requested. The Town Gen.
ter and the apartments to be
built by the New York develop
ment firm Of Webb & Knapp
will be between I and M streets
and Third and Fourth streets.

A move to tighten nonresi-

A subcommittee headed by

The Broyhill measure would

Expects to

The Washington Board of
Trade-going metro-minded in

its name for the first time in
10 years.
Members will be asked at a
meeting October 20 to vote a
constitutional change to make
the group known henceforth as
the Metropolitan Washington
Board of Trade, to reflect its
expanding interest in area-wide
affairs.
The suggested change by the
boards directors was noted in
the organizations current
newsletter. It emphasized,
however. that the boards policy
will continue to be to refrain
from direct concern with local
matters in any part Of the
area.
Our interest is in problems
affecting the entire community
and large segments Of bust
ness" ~ it added. "This type of
program is in line with most
progressive large city cham
bers of commerce.
At the same time, the direc-
tors urged an expansion of ac-
tivities by the Metropolitan
Development Council, a loosely
formed regional group COM
posed of IA chambers of COM
merce in the area.
Noting that Washington is
the "fastest-growing" metro
area in the country. the direc-
tors expressed special interest
in the areas fiscal problems
in providing facilities of a re-

lots, in general, not less than
half an acre in size.
This drew a sharp attack
from Commissioner Donald E.
Gingery. a Montgomery County
developer.
"The premise on which you're
starting" he told the planners,
sis ridiculous.
1.-THE truth of the matter is
that if you waste land and
cram people in central, urban
areas, you're in trouble"
Mr., Gingery said his objec-
lions were linked significantly
with another major provision
of the plan-construction of
two impounding dams on head
waters of Rock Greek.
Proposals which have ad-
vanced little beyond the plan
ming stage would locate the
dams on two Rock Creek
branches north of the Rock
ville-Norbeck road.
The dams and the 600 acres
Of water impounding areas they
would require are tied in with
another major proposal IN the
plan. This is the proposed res
ervation Of $500 acres of park
land, including a large regional
park and parks bordering
branches Of Rock Creek
Although the dams would be
financed by Federal funds, the
land they would require, Mr..
Gingery said. must be pur-
chased by the county and
might cost millions of dollars.
j. Newton Brewer, jr., vice
chairman of the commission,
defended the plan.

to build these dams or we will

The action came after the
four-member board was dead
locked in a % tie. The court
appointed tie-breaker, Howard
Duncan, had to be summoned
by the sheriff to break the i'm
pasSe.
The effect of the supervisors
action is to appropriate for the
remaining three-quarters of the
fiscal year, beginning today, the
balance of $678,703 for public
schools. and an additional
$116,088 to pay for State and

Junior Village, the Districts
bullying home for homeless
children. recorded a higher
daily average population in Au-
gust than at any time in the
institutions history, the We'll
fare Departments monthly
statistical report showed today.
The 419 children housed at
Junior Village during August
represented a Is per cent in
crease over the daily average
population in the children's
cottages in August, 1858, and
a So per cent increase over the
daily average in August, 1857.
Further Crowding Seen
There is every indication the
situation will get worse before
it gets better. Welfare Direc-
tor Gerard M. Shea said the
institution set another new
record September II, when it
held 442 children.
Junior Villages capacity is
supposed to be 241.
Part of the trouble, Mr.. Shea
noted. is the difficulty of get
ting the children out of the
institution once they are adj
mitted. In August, 1858, 80
children were admitted and SO
discharged. But in August,
1859, los were admitted and
only 10 discharged.
District budget officers have
recognized the overcrowding to
the point of recommending in
the fiscal 1861 budget the addi-
ton Of three cottages which
would increase the capacity by
100 beds.
Foster Homes Needed
They also have given some
recognition to the companion
problem Of foster homes. Mr..
Shea said about 100 children
