Hunnun Is Called
Author of Bill
ToCurb Renewal

William E. Finley, director Of
the National Capital Planning
Commission, asserted in a radio
broadcast yesterday that Will
liam T. Hannah. an attorney,
is the real author of legislation
to restrict urban renewal activ-
tiles in Washington.
Mr.. Finley and Mr.. Hannah
discussed the proposed Colum-
bia Plaza urban renewal project
in Foggy Bottom on Radio Sta
ton WWDC's District Round
Table.
Mr.. Hannah has bitterly op-
posed any new urban renewal
projects until 10 per. cent of
Southwest Washington rede-
velopment is completed. This is
the aim of a bill on which hear
ings are being held now in the
House.
Mr.. Finley said Mr.. Hannah
wrote the legislation, sponsored
by Representative Rabaut, Dem
ocrat of Michigan. Mr.. Han
nan did not deny the charge,
but replied that he is not a
Congressman and the legisla-
ton was introduced by Mr..
Rabaut.
Mr.. Hannah said the pro-
posed Columbia Plaza project
is not a legal use of redevelop-
ment powers and that the area
is certain to be rebuilt by pri-
vate investors who already
have considerable holdings in
the eight-acre area.
Mr.. Finley answered that he
wants to see the large land
owners in the area become the
redevelopers, but that he thinks
it will be necessary for the
project to be publicly spon-
sered in order to close streets
and provide a unified develop
ment of the area.

3 RooseveIts to Follow
On Viruses' Evolution

of the 1850 Roosevelt expedition
will be with still cameras.
Part of the trip, which for
the elder Roosevelt will last
until July 4, will include con-
tacting those who were con-
nected with the 1909 safari.
Many Still Alive
Before leaving New York by
air last night for a pre-safari
business trip to Europe. Mr..
Roosevelt said it is surprising
how many of these people are
still alive" He said he has al
ready contacted five of them,
including a news service re-
porter who covered "TR's"
safari and one expedition
member.
The trip is something to
which Mr.. Roosevelt has looked
forward since he was a small
boy.
He had wanted to go with
his father, but his education
and later business career in
terfered. Then Mr.. RooSevelt's
father died while serving as
a World War II Army major
in Alaska in 1943.
The trip has been in the
making for about a year. With
young Kermit graduating from
Harvard this year, prior to ad-
mission to Columbia University
Law School, Mr.. Roosevelt de-
cided this was the time.
Staying behind on Nantucket
Island during the safari will
be Mrs. Roosevelt and the
couples younger children.
Anne. 7, and Mark, 5.
The latter part of the
African trip will not be all
pleasure. Mr.. Roosevelt expects,
as his grandfather did before
him, to sample the political
climate of Africa in visits to
countries where Gulf has busi-
ness interests.
And out of the trip will come
a book, the modern version,
perhaps. of the volume Theo-
dore Roosevelt subtitled: AN
Account of the African Wan
derings of an American Hunter
Naturalist"

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
What Your Letters Cost You
~ SYLVIA PORTER

During the last six weeks I've
received four letters from an
executive of an industrial cor
poration commenting in detail
and with varying degrees of
acidity on some of my recent
reports. I've Just made a rough
calculation that each of his
letters to me cost his company
at least Sand perhaps triple
that if he's as expensive an ex-
ecutive as suspect he is.
In this period I've answered
each of his letters with a short
thank you but I think
you're-wrong cordially" Sue
cinct as my answeres have
been, I've Just estimated that
each has cost me a minimum
of So and maybe twice as
much.
The average cost of an av-
erage business letter today has
hit an all-time high of $1.83,
according to a new breakdown
of business letter expenses by
the Dartnell Office Admins
tration Service of Chicago.
This is Sc per cent more than
that same business letter cost
in 1858.
Modest Estimate

statistic is, l think it's modest
for most business Offices. II
