state highway allotment. OFF,
Gals estimated the proposed
increase would provide about
SITS million in Federal funds
for fiscal 1861, with recent
planning based on a hoped-for
$24.6 million.
Calling on Congress to bolster
the sagging Federal highway
fund, Montgomery County
Manager M. L. Reese told q.
press conference yesterday thaE
a sharp decrease in State allo-
cations would be serious, but
he added that the gas tax in
crease would soften the blow"
He said Maryland funds,
under a cutback, might be obli-
gated to pay for large highway
projects already under contract,
projects the State has antici-
pated financing with 80 per cent
Federal funds matched with 10
per cent in State funds.
Two Projects Cited
He cited two county road
projects-the $575,000 River
road Improvement and the
$3.50, 900 Arson street project
as possibly feeling the effects
of a cutback.
And Carl Wannen, controller
for the Maryland State Roads
Commission, agreed there will
have to be some re-evaluation
of project priorities. However,
he said, the State may be able
to go ahead with some inter-
state projects. if Congress
and/or the Federal Bureau of
Public Roads devises some way
to keep the Federal highway
fund from going into the red
in the future.
He said the money that would
be provided under the commit
tee recommendations would
force about a one-fourth cut
back in federally supported
projects in the State for the
next two years.
F. A. Davis, chief engineer of
the Virginia State Highway
Department, said the proposed
tax increase would permit the
State to "go ahead with our
program about as planned,
though it would mean some
showdown"
However he said his depart
ment had planned to give pri-
ority to construction Of the
Washington circumferent ial
and Interstate Route

the immediate vacinity Of
Washington wouldn't suffer"

1T WAS DELIGHTFUL.

IT WAS ELIG HTFUL.
First he walked on the sunny
side of the street "rich as
Rockefeller"
When that got too hot
and it did-he crossed the
sidewalk and walked in the
shade. The temperature was
SO.
It wasn't a matter of mad
dogs and Englishmen" as
Noel Coward once said about
the perils of the tropics
he knew that at any time
he could duck into air-condi-
toned comfort.
He thought he could. But
when he entered the Raleigh
lobby he found that it was
conditioned by fans.
That was all right for the
nonce. He sat down and
looked at the clock. He had
a half hour to wait.
The contrast in the guests
was something to remember.
A handsome middle aged
man was in front of the
phone booths talking to his
wife who was probably not
much his junior.
However, her picture could
have been something extra
special on the cover of Vogue.
1t was a good silhouette. She
was wearing a peach-colored
ensemble of a modern light
weight FABRIC. Inc jacket was
over her arm.
Then a fat-not plump
woman in a salmon blouse
and blue shorts crossed the
lobby.
He waited 10 minutes. Then
the heat drove him into the
hotels Lamp Post Corner.
That was air conditioned.
Mrs. r arrived and we
went to a nearby restaurant.
Good dinner. Good time. AS
we departed the night seemed
very hot. That parked car
was a long way away.
We hailed a cab. AS it
drew to the curb we noticed
the name on the door, "a. A.
Antonelli."

sconced in the tonneau, the

House Group
Pledges Study
Court
Two More Judges
On Juvenile Bench
To Be Considered

Two ranking House District
Committee members today in
dicated they would press for
passage Of legislation to add
two judges to the District Juve-
nile Court bench.
Chairman Mcmillan, Demo-
crat of South Carolina, during
a home rule hearing. asked
Benjamin M. McKelway. editor
of The Star, what pending leg
islation he considered most i'm
portant to the city.
II would consider it a great
misfortune If this session were
to close withoute action on a
bill for additional judges in
Juvenile Court. Mr.. McKelway
said. II don't know where any
opposition to it lies"
He said he believed the Dis
trict Committee would per-
form a service by reporting the
bill. particularly since the
House committee "has done so
much for law enforcement for
this city"
Study Is Promised
Mr.. Mcmillan assured him
that members will consider the
problem. He was joined by
Representative Loser. Demo-
crat of Tennessee, who said, lit
is a tragedy that we don't have
a sufficient number of juvenile
judges"
The Senate early in the Ses-
sion passed a bill to increase
the. number Of juvenile court
judges from one to three.
A House District Subcommit-
tee began holding hearings on
the creating Of new Juvenile
Court judges late last month.
At that time, most subcom-
mittee members seemed to
favor additional judges.
Work Load Rises
The Juvenile Court recently
disclosed that, during the past
fiscal year, the number of cases
coming to its attention had
increased by 20 per cent. The
cases involved 8 per cent more
juveniles.
Also during the past fiscal
year the court handled % per
cent more cases involving aid
to dependent children whose
parents were not supporting
them.
Since 1949, when legislation
to increase the number of Jul
venile Court judges was first
proposed, the number Of nom
support cases has jumped from
1853 to 1885.
Under legislation passed in
1851, the Juvenile Court acts
as guardian to children in the
District born out of wedlock.
The court has handled 5000
such cases.
The juvenile population of
the District has increased by
nearly $4,000 since June. 1850.

ects still wouldn't be provided.
The House Way and Means
Committee, by a 1879 vote,
agreed to the tax increase yes
terday, breaking a deadlock on
meeting the fund crisis in the
Nations interstate road system.
The increase would be in effect
from next month until July,
1861.
Other Fund Sources
The committee also agreed
to recommend that half of the
10 per cent excise tax on
automobiles and two-thirds of
the current 8 per cent levy on
automotive parts be trans
ferred to the highway trust
fund for the period July /,
1861, to July /, 1864. The total
diversion is expected to be SIS
billion.
Chairman Mills, Democrat of
Arkansas. announced the Ways
and Means Committee plans to
investigate the ways in which
the Federal appointments are
spent. The Federal Govern
ment supplies 80 per cent of
the money. the States 10 per
cent.
Mr.. Mills said only that an
investigation had become nee
esSary because of information
brought to the committees at
tention and because of the
large sums of money involved.
Other members of the COM
mittee have reported hearing
stories of shakedowns, kick
backs and other misdeeds
which, if proved, could add up
to scandals. They have not
identified publicly where these
things are reported to have oc-
Cured.
Approval Seen
Yesterdays decision is still
subject to approval by the
House Public Works Commit
tee, but indications are this APP
proval will be Forthcoming.
The proposal, according to
committee m m b ers, would
make possible a Federal allo-
cation Of $1.8 billion to the
States for fiscal 1861. The
committee estimates alloca-
tons Of 50 billion and $2.2
billion for fiscal 1862 and 1868,
respectively.
District officials, seeing an
end to delays in major projects
in the city, said, however, that
the District would lose $7.9I
expected for construc-
ton work in the fiscal year
ending July, 1861. The loss for
the next fiscal year would be
about $2.1 million.
About $18 million in con-
struction contracts have been
held back because of uncer-
tainty over the Districts inter-
