speak about a general, county

'The burden of the editorial

to the contrary.

Road Plan Blocks Legion Zoning Plea

The County Council was put
in a legal bind last week by
the Maryland-National Capital
Park and Planning Commission.
Before the Council was a re-
quest to zone residential land at
Montrose I'd. and Rockville Pike
into light Commercial category.
Applicant for the 5.5-acre tract
was the Bethesda Chevy Chase
Post los, American Legion.
Also before the Council was
a recommendation by the Com

only half an acre of the tract
be used for commercial pur-
poses while reserving the re.
mainder for part of road in

On Apartment Crisis
Text Of Cahoon's Letter
To Democratic Officials

(The following is the text
of a personal letter of reply
by County Councilman
David L. Cahoon, addressed
to 10 Kensington- Wheaton
area Democratic precinct
chairmen, who signed a let
ter to the council last week,
deploring increased apart
ment house coming in their
neighborhoods. The editor
ial to which he refers was
published in the December
10 issue of The Sentinel.)
Dear Sirs:
II have received the commu-
nication dated December 10,
1859 addressed to the Montgom-
cry County Council by you as
the Democratic precinct chair
man of the Kensington-Wh
ton planning area. You express
yourself as being deeply con-
cerned about the trends in plan
ming and zoning for this area.
while / do not know the cir.
cumstances under which you
signed the petition, / can assure
you that the trends are not AS
indicated in your petition, nor
the attached editorial
"For the record: In the six
month period, the Planning
Board Staff has proposed 2183
apartment units in the area
not 1870 as stated in your petit
ton. The Board and Council de.
cisions have provided a poten-
tial of 1854 units-not 2S48 as
stated. This is an increase of
potential of 81 percent-not 300
percent as stated.
Changes made during a pub
lie hearing, examination, review,
assimilation of preliminary
plan by the Planning Board and
the Council, cannot be called a
trend for the future. No such
similar period of examination
and review is to occur in the
foreseeable future.
That the Kensington-Whea-
ton will remain essentially
single-family residential COM
is abundantly clear. The
area involved in changes con-
stitutes less than four-tenths of
one percent of the total acres
in this planning area. The net
change in the ratio Of apart
ments dwellings to total poten-
tial dwelling units in the whole
area is less than one percent.
"Of similar small proportion
are the net revisions made by
the combined efforts of the
Staff, Board and Coun-
Gil. In 1852 a coming plan was
for the Wheaton area
which provided for 2024 apart
ment units in the Wheaton area.

Food prices should be stable
in 1860 and help hold initiation
in check, according to Ralph w.
Burger, president and board
chairman of the Great Atlantic
and Pacafic Tea Company.
Abundant food supplies will
continue into the new year,
said Burger, "and there is
strong evidence that consumer
prices will be similar to or
slightly below the low levels
reached during 1852"
The nations leading food re.
taller also foresees an industry
wide leveling off in new store
openings, diversified stores in

course, none of us can afford

main modern and to replace old

During 1859, Arp opened
approximately 255 new stores.
Many Of these, he pointed out,
were designed to serve estab-
lished neighborhoods where Ill
older Arp stores were closed

The trouble was, Councilmen
found, that the interchange does
not appear anywhere on a defin-
tive master plan for the area.
Since this was the case, the

the land in reserve, it's legal

shops for food supplies that
will feed her family from three
to seven days and therefore is
inclined to prefer separate shop
ping expeditions for her food
needs and non-food purchases
so while one area shopping
seems here to stay, the idea of
buying everything under one
ceiling appears nearing the end
of its short life"
Giveaway schemes have about
run their course" in Burgers
opinion, because the cOnsum.
ing public realizes that there is
no pie in the sky and the ex-
pense Of such promotions ulti-
mately must be added to the
cost of doing business"
In reviewing the past decade,
Burger noted the sharp rise in
demand for convenience" foods,
including a revolution in frozen
items and ready mixes as well
as giant strides in the develop
ment Of pre-packaged merchan-
disc, particularly in meats and
fresh fruits and vegetables.
Increased demand for built
in maid service has been in al
most direct proportion to the
increase in take home pay of
the average family" he noted
"and with the prospects bright
for a continuation of personal
income increases, there Is every
reason to believe that conven-
fence foods will command more
and more shelf space"
The biggest news for consum-
ers during the past year, the
Arp official said, was the
marked decrease in food prices
at a time when the over all cost
Of living index was reaching an
all time high along with a rec
ord personal income. Burger
attributed much of the food
price index dip to lower retail
prices for coffee, meat, poul-
try and fresh produce.
Coffee prices dropped about
20 percent during 1859, and cur
rently are only about half of
the all time high prices of June,
1854. Another milestone in the
development of the industry, &C.
cording to Burger, is retail
ing's evolution in the field Of
human relations. Retailing,
particularly food retailing, has
emerged as promising career
for intelligent and ambitious
young people," Burger said.
Even in the absence of gov
ernmental pressures, the indus
try has purged itself of long
hours and low pay scales, and
today offers more incentives
than many other fields of en-
ployment."
AS Arp starts its second cen.
fury of catering to the food
needs of the American consum-
err Git was founded in 1881,
Burger pledged a continuation
of the company's 100-year-old
policy of placing top quality
and low prices above all other
considerations" Il firmly be.
lieve that we have an obliga-
ton to our customers to make
available to them the best pos
sible quality at the lowest pos
sible price and to strive con.
stantly to achieve economies of
distribution that will result In

said.

Commission.
There are other practical consid-
erations, however, that are even more
serious. Lafayette Square streets, for
example, already are among the most
trafnc-congested in the city; how sense
less to pour in still more cars. And what
about parking? Nowhere are parking
spaces in shorter supply. The Southwest
building undoubtedly would avoid these
community deficits. 1t would cost no
more. And it would become a positive
and greatly needed Stimulant to the lag
ging Southwest redevelopment program,
entirely consonant with redevelopment
plans calling for Federal building .at
the selected site.
The Madison Place property, under
this plan, would remain in Federal own
ership, available in later years for some
more suitable Federal use. In the mean
time, Congress can take longer look
at the proposal that the Belasco Thea
ter, the Dolly Madison House and the
Benjamin Tayloe House might be refur-
bished and made available on some in
term basis for civic, cultural and other
community activities.

For Orderly Expansion

Governmental authorities of the
neighboring Maryland and Virginia
counties have made a reasonable sug-
geStion to the Federal Government in
the interest of orderly growth of the
Washington Metropolitan Area. They
have adopted resolution urging Federal
building planners to consult fully with
local governing bodies before giving
serious consideration to further Federal
construction projects beyond the Dis
trict'S boundaries.
Offhand, it would seem unnecessary
for the outlying jurisdictions to request
procedure that ought to be routine as
a matter of courtesy. They have found
by sad experience, however, that some
Federal officials, in their eagerneSs to
latch on to attractive building sites out
side of Washington, have overlooked
courtesy. This oversight at times not
only has caused resentment but has
hampered the Government in securing
water, sewer and other public services.
The joint move by regional govern
mentS to insure against more mistakes
OF that kind was made through the
Washington Metropolitan Regional Con-
ference, composed of representatives of
all the counties and municipalities in
the Metropolitan Area. It followed in
the wake of rumors that Federal officials
are looking at various tracts along
the proposed circumferential highway
around Washington, with view to buy
ing them for future Government build
ing sites. 1t may well be that suitable
sites for such projects will be available
when the outer belt is completed few
years hence, but the impact of such
expansion should be weighed carefully
by both Federal and local officials-for
the mutual benefit of all Jurisdictions
concerned.

ToCIeor the Air

I have been reading about
local government officials eff
forts to reduce smog in the
Washington area. I would
like to suggest that a major
contributor to the hazy at
mosphere is the Kenilworth
dump. I do a good bit of fly
ing using the Washington
area as a base and find that
on returning to Washington
the haze and poor visibility
conditions exist in the Wash
ington area to a much higher
degree than areas north,
west and south of the city.
On these occasions fires at
the Kenilworth dump are
blanketing the northeast por-
tion of the city with dense
smoke.
Can't something be done
about getting rid of this
waste in a clean and scien-
tif1c manner?

The Southwest's S the Place

Belated though it is, the General
Services Administration proposal to build
triple court building in Southwest
Washington rather than smaller court
house east of Lafayette Square makes
so much sense that it should be well
coined by the entire community and
approved forthwith by Congress.
General Services Administrator
Floete, in his congressional testimony
this week, made a convincing case for
including the U. S. Tax Court in the
new building, along with the U. S. Court
OF Claims and the U. S. Court of Gus
toms and Patent Appeals The Tax Court
already has suffered severe attrition in
the Internal Revenue Service building,
and Is under strong pressure to vacate
entirely. Its space needs, therefore, are
no less drastic than those of the other
two courts and, by combining the three,
substantial savings can be realized. After
he made this point, however, we regret
that Mr.. Floete was not more emphatic
IN StreSSing the great advantages of such
a building in the Southwest as against
the Lafayette Park location.
AS it was, he noted that the build
. Ing would be tight squeeze" on the
. limited Madison Place site just east
. of Lafayette Square Such a building
. would occupy all the available ground
. and have to reach the maximum height
permitted by law in order to accommo-
. date It's required bulk. It is not surpris-
ing that Mr.. Floete is apprehensive that
such huge building might incur severe
objections from the National Capital
