Wondrous Digging

A magical thing is happening IN
Manhattan. The Consolidated Edison
Company is installing a power conduit
under Fifth Avenue without tearing up
the pavement or interfering with traffic
in any way. The feat is being accom-
plished with a new machine called a
horizontal bore. Operating Is feet I'M
derground, the device Is drilling a long
tunnel and laying pipe e feet in diam
eter) in a manner that can be neither
seen nor heard by sidewalk Superintend-
ents. AS for the autos, buses and trucks
on the surface, they just keep rolling
on, unhampered by the subterranean
digging.
This has all the earmarks Of be-
nef1cently revolutionary development.
At any rate, according to engineers as
ISOLATED with Consolidated Edison, the
new machine will almost certainly come
to be used everywhere for such projects
as conduit installations and perhaps
even for repair work on sewer lines. The
prospect is happy one. Although 1t is
not going to do away with every type
of street excavation, it promises to ease
the lot of exasperated, detour- maddened
urban motorists. All hail to the inven-
tors of the thing.

Leaving No Doubt

Results of the latest nationwide
election in Japan may be accepted with
great satisfaction in our own country
and in the community Of free nations.
For the third time within a year, the
Japanese electorate has registered a de-
cisive approval of the conservative and
pro-WeStern policies of Premier Kishi
and his Liberal-Democrati Party. With
half the seats in the 250-member House
of Councillors at stake, the voters as
sured Mr.. Kishi of continuing majority
in the upper chamber of the Diet In
earlier elections, the Liberal Democrats
won control of the House Of Representa-
tives by wide margin and similarly OF
the state and local governments.
The latest voting was decisively
clear-cut test for the Kishi policies. The
Premier asked election Of his party's
candidates as an Endorsement Of his
policy of flrmness toward Communist
China and of friendship toward the
United States. The Socialists and Com
munists campaigned, in turn, on plat
form of scrapping Japan's military ALI
ance with the United States and adopt
ing position of "neutralism" in world
affairs. Faced with these choices, the
voters have left no doubt about their
preference.

Tox-Exempt Tuition

Since the Government is
so eager to attract as many
students as possible to scien-
tif1c fields, engineering, ETC.,
why wouldn't it be reasonable
to allow income tax deduc-
lions for all money spent by
parents for the college edu-
cation of students interested
in such careers? Or better
still. deductions for all money
spent on higher education.
This, I believe, would help
families of moderate incomes
to send a son or daughter to
college where he could re-
ceive the best instruction in
his field.
Our eldest child Can honor

least one child in college for
the next IL years. The cost
is appalling.
This plan would obviously
not require any appropria-
ton. and l doubt whether it
would throw the national
economy off balance.

there was no abridgment Of freedom Of

presumably will take the case to the
Supreme Court. 1t seems unlikely, how
ever, that the high court will reverse
the Court Of Appeals, for such ruling

Fairfax Taxes

Who can better determine
what the people want in serv-
ices desired than the people
themselves?
The citizens in Fairfax
overwhelmingly voiced oppo-
sition to any tax increase and
opposed increased expendi-
lures labeled for so-called
necessary county services.
Completely ignoring the citi-
zens' wishes and demands,
the county supervisors passed
a Ascent tax increase May
Is, bringing the personal and
real property tax to $3.75.
Apparently most of the
board consider the county
and school administrators
better qualified to determine
the peoples desires and wants
than the people themselves.
The supervisors are supposed
to be representatives Of the
citizens and not pigeons of
the administrators.
This November let us elect
supervisors who will truly
represent the people-super-
visors who will respond and
act according to the wishes
of their people.

Full Time Compoiqninq

Time may tell that the 1860 presi-
dental campaign will be one Of the
longest on record-at least full two
years. For both parties, the election
results in November, 1858, provided
reason to begin the politicking which
will lead to the White House in Janu-
airy, 1861. In fact, so early and so busy
has been some of the preliminary ma
neuvering that there is risk of a certain
measure of public boredom as potential
candidates seek to strike attractive
positions.

Passport Denial

It seems to us that the Court OF
Appeals was abundantly justified in re-
fuSing to order the State Department
to issue a passport to William Worthy,
jr., former newsman.
Worthy had passport in 1855 and
1857, which was not valid for travel to
certain areas, including Red China and
Hungary. He went to those countries
anyhow, and when his passport expired
the State Department refused to renew
it. This refusal was based on Worthy's
unwillingness to state that he would
abide by similar restrictions in the new
passport.

Time to Produce!

Six weeks ago today representatives
Of the steel industry and its labor force
met in New York City to open negotia-
tions on new contract. On that same
day, May S, President Eisenhower told
news conference that the Government
and the public at large were looking to
these negotiators "for some good sense
and some wisdom real business labor
craftsmanship" If these qualities were
not displayed, he added, in the long run
the Government cannot stand still and
do nothing"
Up to now, there has been no public
evidence of the slightest progress in the
negotiations. If there has been states
manShip," it has been kept secret behind
the closed doors of the negotiating ses-
SionS and obScured in a barrage Of let
tiers back and forth, publicity handouts,
paid advertisements and various other
devices for special pleading. Even the
mechanics of keeping the negotiations
going have been subject of controversy
by letter-between the two bargaining
teams.
Mr. Eisenhower did not make clear
to his news conference what Govern
ment action might be taken, or exactly
at what point Emphasizing that he is
not yet intervening formally, Director
Joseph F. Finnegan Of the Federal Medi-
alton and Cancellation Service arranged
to see President David Mcdonald of the
Steelworkers Union here yesterday and
to have similar meeting with Chair
man Roger Blough Of the United States
Steel Corporation next Monday. Mean
while, time is running short.
Two weeks from today, at midnight
on June 80, the present three-year con-
tract expires. BY the middle Of next
week, If a strike seems the only sure
result of these unproductive negotia-
z lions, the industry will begin the "cool-
ing down" procedure essential to closing
its plants without damage. AS usual, OF
course, a strike offers no benefit that
could not be attained by genuine bar
gaining on both sides and would be
costly in the first instance to industry,
labor and the economy as whole. 1t is
time indeed for the good sense, wisdom
and craftsmanship that the President
mentioned.

Mr.. ChoIk's MonoroI

One thing which must be said about
o. Roy Chalk'S transit proposals Is that
they're not timid. In fact, they seem
to get holder and less inhibited by the
day.
Not long ago, MIR. Chalk was fight
ing for relatively prosaic improvement
the exclusive use Of curb lanes on
downtown streets for his D. C. Transit
System buses Next he came up with
a super -duper rail line down Seventh
street. Now, with a Senate committee
room as the stage, he has unveiled the
piece de resistance-a $3.50 million, 116-
mile-long monorail system which Mr..
Chalk says he wants to build to cover
the metro region, from Laurel to Chan
tilly and from Rockville to Andrews Air
Force Base
We can't imagine anyone wanting
to stand in the way Of such splendid
system This is far more ambitious than
the 80 miles or so Of rail transit that
will be proposed next month by the
long delayed Mass Transportation Sur
vey report and, by Mr.. Chalk's prelimi-
nary figuring, is only about half as ex-
penSive. What concerns us about Mr..
Chalk's idea, however, is the same thing
that concerns us about the Transporta-
ton Survey recommendation: Where Is
all that money coming from?
Mr. Chalk says he has financing
plan which he will disclose later If there
is public support for his idea. Just
when he chooses to do this is, OF course,
his business. But until he does, no one
can be expected to take his monorail
brain child very seriously.

Naming New Airport

Before a mistake is made
in naming the new airport at
Chantilly-by calling it either
the Dulles International Air
port or the Chantilly - it
seems we should consider the
longtime effects both in
ternational and psychologist
cali of such names.
A ersonal name espe-
cially a political name, the
bearer of which is soon for
gotten-appears inappropri-
ate to coming generations
unless the name has an ex-
tended meaning, as does la
Guardia," which seems to
indicate that it is guarding
New York.
The name "Chantilly" is so
firmly implanted in American
minds as that of a French
city-because of Chantilly
lace-that there would I'M
doubtedly be endless ques-
tionings regarding the reason
for giving a French name to
an airport serving our Ma
tons Capital.
Therefore, I wish to sug-
gest a name that would COM
memorate John Foster Dulles
land of which he would be
proud, I know, a name that
would also complement that
of another great airport serv-
ing this district, the Friend
ship at Baltimore, and a
name that would have uni
verSal meaning. 1t is simply
Peace. Further. since inter-
national airports are called
"gatewayS." this one could be
called "The Peace Gateway"
at Virginia Field.
An appropriate statue
might be erected there, and
every incoming and departing
traveller would be reminded of
the ideal for which we stand.

Boys Clubs Doomed

The Police Boys Clubs
have been devastated in one
short year by the wither-
ing blasts Of the red-hot
advocates Of forcible mix
ing of the races.
These misguided zealots,
in their ignorance Of hui
man nature and the wish
of the majority to be left
alone to choose their asso-
ciates. have succeeded in
closing (unwittingly we
hope) five of the clubs, so
that now only two remain.
Prior to the uncalled-for at
tacks by these ardent pro-
ponents of compulsory race
mixing, there were seven
clubs with 10000 colored boy
members and 5000 white boy
members. These boys we're
happy with their clubs and
were not the least interested
in racial mixing; but since
the meddleSome adults have
loused up the situation, only
two clubs remain, with a
total membership Of 1900.
Thanks to the manner in
which racial pressure groups
have badgered the police and
the D. c. Commissioners,
the police are no longer
permitted to solicit donations
to the clubs, and it is only
a matter of time when the
boys will have nowhere but
the streets to play and per-
haps increase our rising
crime rate. Is this what the
advocates of racial mixing
want? Let us hope for the
sake of our Nations future
they wake up and learn
some common sense.

Missing Bomber Crew

/ read with considerable
interest The Star story about
the discovery of the bomber
plane in the Libyan desert,
and the mystery" of the
missing crew. However, I
don't think there is any mys-
terry. During the war, I was
stationed in Iran. Shortly
after we arrived. early in
1913, an officer and an en-
listed man. on a trip by jeep,
took a short cut of the road
across the desert. When they
were not heard from in "a
hours. search parties were Or
ganized and they were found
dead in the desert. After that
the Army issued strict regu-
lations for desert travel, and
in the remaining 21a years I
was in Iran, we never lost
another man to the desert.
AS your story points out, it
is not likely that the entire
crew bailed out, and the
plane made a safe landing by
itself. Since no bodies were
found in the plane, appar-
emily no one was killed in the
landing. Since the plane is
almost intact, the bodies
were not removed by thiev-
ing nomads. because they
would also have taken what
ever else they could from the
plane.
The members of the crew
were airmen, not ground SOL
diers. While some airmen
were given training in jungle
survival. I doubt that they
were given training in desert
survival. The crew probably
underestimate the desert.
That is why they did not take
the bottles Of water from the
cabin. which I assume were
not Of the canteen type that
is clipped to the belt. The
crew likely started out on foot
and they were soon swallowed
up by the desert. That seems
to me the tragic but obvious
solution to the mystery"
Arniel Kirshbaum,
