mySJllying aspect Is the pres
ence Of huge morning glory
type horns, about 5 feet long,
on the walls Of the D-shaped
rooms.
Speculation ran all the way
from a reservoir or ammunition
storage area for a gun emplace-
ment to an experimental lab
oratory for underground sound
wave transmissions.
This latter theory was adj
vanced by Don Moore, an engi-
neer with the Chesapeake g.
Potomac Telephone Co. Mr..
Moore recalled that the late
DR.. ]. Harris Rogers Of Hyatts-
vile. had conducted expert
ments in long-wave transmits
sion underground.
l
The structure is of compare
lively recent vintage because
electrical conduits are imbedded
in its concrete walls and cell
ings. The mysterious horns are
fastened to the curved walls Of
the rooms.
Brig. Gen. Manus McClosky.
USA (retired), of 1000 Cathe-
dral avenue NV, was a major
in charge of artillery at the post
in 1916. He said he was aware
Of DR.. Rogers experiments but
did not have any knowledge of
the structure.
Joseph McSurdy. a retired
technician, remembered the site
in 1924 as containing only a
series of gullies.
There was a 3-foot concrete
wall there" he said. I'VE used
to sit on it. That was the place
where we got our fishing worms.
We never did know what the
wall was for"
The discovery came about
when construction workers
broke a water main. While ex-
cavating to make repairs they
came across the concrete roof
of the building only about /
foot beneath the soil.
The Army continued the ex-
cavation down the side of the
structure and came to a door
way about Is feet below
ground. This led into the
middle room of the three-story
structure.

Seeks Qualification
The Government said it
wished to pose the question as
to whether immunity granted
by law embraces 'monopoliza-
ton acquired by coercion or ex-
Customary means"
The brief declared:
"The issue whether a CO.
operative retains its immunity

power, even if-unlike here
lawfully acquired, to forestall
competition, presents q question

can actions appeared to be ma
neuvers in a war of nerves be-
tween Mr.. Gromyko and the
Western ministers to force a
break in the present stale
mated debate and come to
grips with the Berlin problem.
This is one issue about which
some action will have to be
taken here if Western terms
for a summit meeting are to be
met.
Mr.. KhruShchev's apparent
eagerneSs to get to the summit
is about the only effective bar
gaining weapon the West has
in negotiating to ease the Ber-
lin situation.
Mr.. Khrushchev's separate
peace treaty threat is the same
weapon turned around. 1t is
a way Of saying that unless the
West agrees to a summit ses-
sion Russia will go through with
its plan to treat East Germany
as a sovereign state with con-
troll over allied supply lines to
West Berlin. That could pro-
duce an extremely dangerous
situation which the Western
powers are anxious to avoid.
Still in Same Deadlock
The conference ended its Sec
'ond full week In exactly the
same deadlock in which it fin
ished the first with Mr.. Gro
myko insisting that a German
settlement must begin with a
peace treaty and the Western
ministers arguing that reunifi-
cation must come first.
