Traffic Plan
Weak Points
Are Scored

District officials today were
told by a national traffic safety
expert that there are five major
weak points in the city's acct
dent prevention program.
The report by George Grotz,
National Safety Council re-
gional director, emphasized,
however, that Washington last
year topped a national average
on overall safety achievement.
This information was in.
cluded in an analysis by Mr..
Grotz of the strengths and
weaknesses of the city's pro-
gram, as compared to 10 other
cities with a population of more
than 100000.
Mr.. Grotz. speaking to q
meeting of District traffic off,
cials and citizens in the District
Building, said that Washington
last year ranked 14th among
the 20 cities. Throughout the
Nation. the city's overall pro-
gram was about 20 per cent
better than the average. But
he listed these weaknesses:
/. Failure to make effective
use of traffic accident data for
enforcement, safety engineering
and public education.
2. A low arrest rate on acci-
dents causing personal injuries
and traffic deaths.
| 10. A need to increase driver
education and training pro-
grams in the schools. -
4. A weakness in the setup
flor pooling safety information
and achievements for a more
defective public education pro-
lgram.
5. A need to strengthen pub
lie support for the safety pro-
] gram,

hower's soil bank, which was
authorized in 1856. Harold
Titus, writing in Field and
Stream, points out that while
Izaak Walton Leagues and
other conservation groups
had been setting aside 10
acres here and 40 acres there
to provide natural cover for
the nesting birds, the soil
bank in South Dakota alone
retired IA million acres from
cultivation.
South Dakota's pheasant
census showed a one-third
increase in 1857; a two-thirds
increase in 1858. All indica-
tons are that there has been
another increase in the
pheasant population of the
Prairie States Except North
Dakota) this year.
The season is longer and
the bag limits larger.
Increased cultivation dur
ing World War II and since
has left plenty of food in
the fields for pheasants. The
rolling combines and the
mechanical corn picker have
a way of leaving plenty of
grain for birds. But they
must have cover to hatch
their chicks in the spring,
and the soil bank has pro-
vided this.

TV Shows Planned
On Metro Transit .
D. c. to Outline
Need for New
Area System

Two half hour television
shows are being prepared to
bring Wasnington's 'transpor-
tation problems and recon-
mended solutions to a mass
audience.
Plans for the telecasts were
disclosed last night at a meet
ing of the steering committee
of the Washington Metropoli-
tan Regional Conference.
The television shows are be-
ing prepared by Truman j.
Keesey Of the District Govern
ment to show the need for the
$2.5 billion system of highways
and rapid rail and bus lines
recommended in the Mass
Transportation Survey.
A report submitted to the
steering committee by the con-
ference transportation commit
tee also urged conference mem
bers collectively and individ-
ually (to) continue to press for
congressional approval of and
consent to the transit regula-
tory compact"
Congress Didn't Act
The compact would provide
an authority to regulate and
administer a metropolitan area
transportation system. Virginia
and Maryland have approved
compact legislation but Con-
gresS failed in the session Just
concluded to authorize District
participation.
The conference, an organiza-
ton composed of officials and
political leaders from the area,
is expected to expand its eff
forts on behalf of a regional
transportation system as soon
as a paid, full-time executive
secretary is selected.
The steering committee voted
last night to start screening
candidates for the job. Qualifi-
cations of applicants will be
studied by a subcommittee
headed by District Commits
sioner Robert Mclaughlin. The
job will pay starting salary
Of $500 per year.
Jobs Are Budgeted
Mr.. Mclaughlin said several
applications have been received.
The executive secretary's Job
as well as position for a clerk

years budget.
The cost will be paid by the

The steering committee also
approved a plan to explain the
mass transportation survey at
public hearings. The four-step
program, together with a report
on water supply and pollution
abatement, will be presented to
the full conference on Octo-

Land Needed
IF our population could grow
to 3 million, we would continue
to have the same hopeless
situation" he said. TITS land,
not people or wealth, which we
need to demand respect"
Mr.. Fowler proposed that Vir-
GINA surrender about Asst
square miles to the new state, I"
and that Maryland give up 1929
square miles Of its present
holdings in the Washington
area. Combined with the pres
ent District. this would make
an area 849.l miles in size
presumably covering Alexan-
dria, Arlington and most of
Fairfax. Montgomery and
Prince Georges Counties.
Mr.. Fowler said these. land
areas were based on 1858 esti-
mates of the Metropolitan
Area" and that possibly the
size should be extended to cover
urban growth since then.
AS to the peculiar status of
the Nations Capital as a Fed
eral district, Mr.. Fowler argued
that the historic reasons for
being under the exclusive con-
troll of Congress no longer
exist.
