Methodists Plan Home
For Aged in Alexandra

The Methodist Church in
tends to start construction of
a $750,000 home for the aged
in Alexandria within a year.
The 125-room structure will
be built on a 31a acre tract
near Seminary road and Beau
regard street.
The land, which the church
values at more than $4,000,
was donated this week by B. M.
Smith, Arlington real estate
man and prominent Methodist
layman.
A new church possibly, will
be established nearby sometime
after the home is completed in
1861.
Mr.. Smith has indicated he
will give another 312 acre tract
to permit construction of the
church.
DR.. Bernard S. Via, super
intendent of the Methodist
Home for the Aged in Rich

new building will contain a Is

other 100 rooms will be for
residents.
DR.. Via said the home will be
open to all people, but that
preference will be given initially
to MethodistS.
Those entering will be asked
to pay the costs of their care
in so far as they are able.

said yesterday:
What I said at Marquette
University was essentially what
have been saying and have
been quoted accurately as say
ing for many years. In essence,
my view is that we are not
doing enough in science educa-
ton and that as a result of the
present situation the Russians
will surpass us in science by
1870.
IF we begin now to work
very hard in science education,
we can regain the lead later on.
If we do not begin now-and in
a big way-the Russian Com
munists will shape the world
OF the year 1000.
II have the full confidence
that once the American peo-
pie fully realize the dangers
