The
Rambler
Revisits
Historic BeIoir
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

ny OEOhGE AENNEDI
The Rambler went along
this week when Levitt g.
Sons, Inc, gave a preview
to the press of the houses it
will build on the 2,400 acres
of the former w. E. Wood
ward estate, Belair.
Belair is about Is miles
from Washington and the
main entrance gate, which
has been locked for years,
is on Defense highway, the
old Route so to Annapolis.
Few of the thousands who
have motored through Bel
airs acres on their way to
the bay or the Eastern
Shore have been aware of
it.
Just after you pass the
turmoil to the Bowie race
track and cross over the
spur line of the PennSylva-
mia Railroad, Route so goes
through a wooded area with
a hedge of evergreenS on
each side. That is Belair.
Few of those aware of its
existence have seen the big
house. It is screened by the
woods.
The Rambler traipsed
through the seven sample
houses and he will say that
Levitt provides a lot of
house for the money.
The term "Levittown" has
gone into the American Ian
guage. The first was started
on Long Island right after
the war. The second was
built in Pennsylvania, near
Philadelphia. The third is
in New Jersey. This will be
the fourth.

Restoration Asked
Of Other District
Budget Requests

The Washington Police De-
partment's appeal for funds to
raise its authorized strength to
5000 was backed today by the
Citizens Advisory Council.
This Endorsement was in
cluded in council support of a
number of budget restoration
requests by city department
heads.
The Budget Office, in propos-
ing a 1886 million spending
program for the fiscal year be-
ginning next July l, cut re-
quests by department heads by
nearly $20.2 million. The Com
missionerS have received res
toration appeals totaling $3.8
million, along with new spend
ing requests amounting to
1905, 900 from IA departments.
/
Figures Go to d. C. Heads
The advisory council at its
meeting backed restoration re-
quests totaling $2,972, 900.
These spending recommenda-
tions now go to the Commits
sioners, who will send their
proposed budget to the White
House for submission to Con-
greSs in January.
The council voted support for
the police departments appeal
for about 81 million to add 266
patrolmen to the force. The
Budget Office had recommended
enough money to add only 100
men on a nine-month basis.
The Office anticipated that it
would take three months for
recruitment. The council also
indorsed the departments
restoration request for funds to
add 10 men to the Accident
Investigation Unit.
There are now 1T vacancies

positions are being filled by
having men work on their days

School Funds Backed
The councils budget action
also included support for resto-
ration of school funds totaling
close to $526,000 mainly to hire
81 additional elementary school
teachers, As junior high
teachers and IA secondary
school collnSelors.
Other items backed by the
advisory group included $780,
600 for the Recreation Depart
ment to construct q swimming
pool in the city's far Northeast
lares.
Also itadOrsed by the council
was the Department of Cor
I lrections restoration appeal for
$250.000 to construct an in
dustrial arts building at the
new Youth Correction Center:
and about $130.000 for public

NEVER MET MIR. Wood
ward; would have liked to.
It was not long after that
his tragic death was in the
news. His wife killed him
with a shotgun blast, think
ing he was a burglar.
That's how I happened to
get an exclusive interview
with Nashua at the paddock
gate. He had already
earned $4,000 in his first
year of racing.
Yesterday Alex Polett, a
vice president of Levitt, took
us up to the big house. 1t
was built in 1850 by Samuel
Ogle, a Colonial Governor OF
Maryland, and is a perfect
example of the symmetry OF
the great Maryland houses
of that day.
Now it is an empty shell.
The mortgage company
which will handle the paper
on the Levitt homes is oc-
cupying it. The ceilings are
peeling and temporary par
titions have divided the
great hall. In front sod was
being removed for a parking
space.
The great avenue of tulip
poplars, all with boles 6 feet
in diameter, still approaches
the house. When William
E. Woodward, ST., would ar
rive from New York in the
1920S, he would be met at
Bowie by a high coach and
four with outriders which
would convey him up this
lane.
I gathered that the Levitt
company doesn't know what
to do with the house; would
rather it wasn't there.
Certainly 4,500 families
comfortably housed will
amount to more happiness
than the big house ever could
provide, but this is galloping
socialism.

THIS LEVITTOWN will be
a community of 4,500 houses.
But what interested the
Rambler was revisiting the
big house and finding out
what is going to happen to
it.
He will never forget the
guided tour he was given
through the place in Decem-
her, 1854.
He wanted to work up a
full-page story with pictures
on the place for The Sunda!
Star.
He called the New York
Office of w. E. Woodward, jr.,
a young man of about IS
who had recently inherited
the estate from his father.
The ServitorS of great
wealth he contacted were
typically cold to the propo-
Sition. That was something
that would have to be taken
up with Mr.. woodward, they
said. .
Well, Mr.. woodward got
to his Office about II, called
right back, and / will al1
ways remember his cheerful
friendliness.
I'm be delighted" he said.
II will telephone the care
taker and have you shown
through the place. You will
find three interesting things
at Belair. The first is the
house, which is one of the
best Colonial houses in
Maryland. The second is the
herd of purebred shorthorn
cattle. And the third is one
of the best two-year-old
thoroughbreds."
I remember my excitement
in asking:
"Is Nashua out there?"
"He is" said Mr.. Wood

Nixon Supported
By Plain Dealer

CLEVELAND. Sept. 10 (AP)
The Cleveland Plain Dealer
today threw its support to Vice
President Nixon, the Republic
can nominee, in his race for
President against Senator Ken
needy of Massachusetts.
In an editorial prepared for
Page One Of Sundays editions
the newspaper said Democrats
and Republicans alike want q
strong. free and prosperous
America in a peaceful world.
1.-THE question to be decided
by voters is which man is bet
ter qualified to lead the United
States toward these detectives. "
1t added. 1.-THE Plain Dealers
choice is MIR. Nixon" MAJ
The newspaper, which fol-
lows a politically independent
editorial policy, supported Pres
ident Eisenhower in the 1856
campaign.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1960-09-11
INTERPRETIVE REPORT

Seasonal factors usually in
crease unemployment sharply
in November, December, Janu-
airy and February.
Republican analysts antici-
pate good timing on several
important economic barometers
in addition to unemployment.
The steel industry lately has
been in the doldrums, with
production down to about half
of capacity. One reason for
slowness In steel is that users
have been buying the basic
metal cautiously and living on
inventories.
Turning Point to Come
But eventually inventories
will decline so lar that steer
purchasing will have to in
crease, squirting the mills to
step up production. This turn
ing point may be reached dur
ing the campaign.
Auto manufacturers, who use
Ia lot Of steel. also are expected
to speed up production of 1861
models as election day ap-
proacheS.
With steel, autos and several
other basic industries operat-
ing in high gear, the economy
should be humming in October
whether or not the pickup
is temporary.
! Administration economists do
not concede that the Nations
general prosperity is superficial.
Most of them maintain that
the economy is in good shape
to- continue registering steady
gains - without experiencing
either a boom or q recession.

economy tends to look rela-

the hidden foundations are
strong or weak.
Senator Kennedy faces q
difficult task in trying to prove
that good times are an illu-
sion, that Republican policies
threaten to cause a recession
in 1861.
One Fares III, Another Well
The job situation illustrates
Senator Kennedy's troubles
and Vice President Nixon's
good fortune.
Nearly 3.8 million workers
were unemployed last month.
With adjustments to compen-
safe for seasonal factors, that
equals So per cent Of the labor
force-a high rate for sup
posedly prosperous times.
Suppose the economy during
the next few months moves
along without any basic gains
or losses, leaving the seasonally
adjusted unemployment rate at
So per cent. Although the
fundamental economic picture
in that case would be I'M
changed the number of I'M
employed workers would de-
crease to 3.5 million in Sep
tember and 3.3 million in
October.
Stress Percentage Rate
Senator Kennedy probably
would talk a lot about the So
per cent rate, contrasting it to
rates around 3 per cent in ear
lier normal" periods. He
would call the SO per cent rate
evidence Of a recession.
Mr.. Nixon probably would
play down the percentage rate
and emphasize instead that
the number of unemployed
workers had declined far below
4 million from levels in excess
of 5 million during some
months of the 1858 recession
It might be difficult for SEN
ator Kennedy to explain subtle
theories about seaso1ality, and
to make the point that 3.3 mil
lion unemployed in October
would be equivalent to more
than S million next winter.

Failure Of the Women's

have cost the District Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs a
$500 award, it appeared to-

The details were disclosed
as controversy continued over
the clubs recent resignation

with two other member
groups.
The plan was proposed
early in November as a club
project to be entered in the

Contest of the General Fed
Grafton.
One hundred per cent par
ticipation of eligible clubs
automatically would have
put the District in line for
a $500 prize next June. This
amount will be given to
every State Federation in
which all clubs enter the con-
test and file reports on their
projects.
Mrs. Mildred White Wells,
contest director, confirmed
the fact that all eligible clubs
in the District had formally
entered the contest by the
November IA deadline, ex-
cept the Women's City Club.
Plan Approved
The club repeatedly voted
to enter the contest at its
regular membership meet
ing the first Wednesday in
November and then enthusi-
astically approved a sugges-
ton that its project be do
nation of $3.50 to buy a po-
lice dog to be used in help
