While the Delaware Dunes"
and adjacent areas have increased
in popularity each year, much of
the anticipated increase in 1860
use Is based on marked improve
ment in facilities, plus the fact
that, despite these favorable
changes, a moderate fee schedule
has been retained.
The 1860 season, which will open
May rs, will continue through La
Dor Day according to the schedule
recently released by the State
Highway Department, which ad-
ministers the areas.
Inasmuch as the Key Box Road
campgrounds, mile south of Dew

will be permitted this year, all i'm

this site. Former campgrounds at
Indian River Inlet are now closed;
however the trailer park on the
north side of Indian River Inlet
remains open.
The Key Box Road Area has been

Assuring. Our Allies

The applause which greeted Senator
JohnSon's address before the NATO par
liamentary conference in Paris should
be echoed in our own country. For the
Vice PreSident-elect made it clear to our
allies, and to all others in the world,
that American foreign policy is not
plaything Of partisan politics in the
United States and that the choice Of
new administration here does not imply
any reputation of our support "for the
instruments Of mutual strength in
Western Europe" If there were nuances
in the Johnson speech indicating some
differences in details Of President-elect
Kennedy's approach to NATO affairs, or
even to the broader aspects of our con-
duct abroad, there were none to indicate
a lessening Of American participation.
AS practical matter, he was correct in
saying that the voice Of isolation has
been stilled (long ago. in this country.
It was gracious and effective, also,
for Mr.. Johnson to pay particular trib-
ute to President Eisenhower and the
latter's great service to NATO and to
the strength Of Western Europe. The
members of the Atlantic alliance know
we'll of this service and its Endorsement
from a spokesman of new administra-
ton should foreclose any doubts about
continuity Of our foreign policy.

June, after twenty-six years Of distin-
guished service as the great president
OF Howard University.
Many pleasant things were said to
and about him by numerous spokesman.
But as warm as were the tributes paid
to him, the greatest tribute of all was
to his country. That tribute was paid
by DR.. johnson in a response which held
the undivided attention of his audience
for an hour and twenty minutes by a
display Of eloquence that has made him
one Of the most effective speakers of
his generation. He found many things

To Protect the Putuxent

Plans being made to safeguard the
Patuxent River from a sewage-and-silt
threat Of the sort that has plagued
the Potomac are very timely, in view
Of the prospects of future residential
and commercial development in the
Patuxent watershed. Urgency of pre-
ventive measures has been accentuated
by recent construction activity, includ-
ing notably the Levitt subdivision prof.
ect near Belair, Maryland.
The sewage-disposal and water
supply problems Of the Patuxent basin
were discussed at recent meeting of
subcommittee of the Maryland Legisla-
tive Council. An engineers report
predicting that the population of the
area would approximate $4,000 by the
year 1000 was followed by a reminder
that rapid growth already has begun
at Belair, where a 16,000-person COM
munity is being built. Robert Mcleod,
chief engineer of the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission, warned
that "some sort of public control of the
operation, not just the building, of
sewage systems Of the private developers
will be essential" He is right.

Empty Till at the u. N.

Secretary General Dag Hammar-
skiold has used justifiably grave Ian
guage in warning that the United
Nations is moving toward a financial
crisis that could wreck all present efforts
to establish law, order and genuine in
dependence in the chaos-ridden Congo.
The danger is very real, and If it
is to be surmounted, member countries
will have to act promptly in paying
assessed contributions now in arrears,
and they must also provide large
additional funds for emergency under
takingS. Otherwise, as Mr.. Hammar-
skiold has told the General Assembly's
Financial Committee, the treasury will
: be virtually empty" by the end of next
month, and the U. N. will be obliged to
begin withdrawing from its Congolese
operations.
What makes the situation partic-
ularly difficult is that the Soviet Union
has fatty refused to contribute single
ruble to the U. MS efforts in the Congo,
and all the satellite lands have followed
suit. The reason for such misery nonco-
operation, of course, is that the Kremlin
wants the U. N. mission to fail, thus
opening the way for inf1ltration and
subversion Of sort well designed to
pull the country within the Communist
orbit.
AS a result of all this, the bulk Of
the Congolese bill Is being borne by the
Western powers, and the general view
seems to be that half or more Of the
total will have to be paid by the United
States If the U. N. is to maintain its
military force in the Congo and make
Roadway with its program Of civilian
aid. The exact cost Of these combined
policing and economic operations has
not yet been off1cially reported, but it
has been estimated at well over $500
million for the first year.
Mr.. HammarSjkeld has commented
effectively on this burden. AS he has
put it. ut may be felt by members
that the cost of peace is high, but indeed
what is it in comparison to the cost
for the preparation for war-not to
speak about war itself?" And in that
connection he is certainly right in
declaring that every vacuum needs to
be filled. If no steps are taken by the
United Nations to fill, under its nag,
the vacuum that exists today in the
Congo, it will inexorably be filled in
other ways as presSures become ire
sistible.'" - .--.-,. ......-...
These somber words make sense.
Clearly, If the U. N. is obliged to quit
the Congo for want of funds, the great
powers-especially Russia and our own
country-will head for the vacuum, and
the movement could lead to a major
war. Mr.. Hammarsjkold's warning is
not exaggerated.

wrong with the world into which he was
born, some seventy years ago, the i'm
poverished son Of slaves. He recited
without rancor some of his own adven-
lures in overcoming handicaps imposed
by events and attitudes springing from
ancient roots.
His spoken tribute to his country
was his conclusion that the better things
he has seen could have happened only
in the United States. The unspoken
tribute to his country was the general
recognition, as manifested by the oc-
casion itself, of the value Of DR.. John
sons life and the worthiness Of its
accomplishments

of providing proper access to
the stadium. the Armory and
the East Capitol Sire e t
Bridge, all located right to-
gether. There is no such &C
cess now existing nor con-
templated. The only means
of reaching this strategic
point from the West is along
narrow city streets, which is
Objectionable both to resi-
dents and to motorists, and

4. The north bank Of the
Anacostia River is now an
eyesore. The river route
would transform this unused
and ugly area into a pleasant

as the George Washington
parkway and the Rock Greek
parkway. This leg could be
a real asset to our city rather
than a mere necessary evil,
destroying homes and dis
rupting people.

would endanger historic Lin

Emancipation Statue. An
other unnecessary victim

which is now being restored.
A large proportion of the
homes west of Eleventh

attractive town houses. This

Qualification

Your story on the Quaker

1.-THE Quakers came here at
the call of a committee Of
20 persons. including William
r. Martin. Mr.. Martin was
fred from his Capitol Hill

leads sent letters to high
school boys telling them they
could avoid military service
by claiming to be. directors.
"One witness referred to
Mr.. Martin as a young
Friend implying kindly that
Mr.. Martin. who is in his
early 20s, may also have been
an i'm petuous one. Most
Quakers are conservative"
Elsewhere it was stated
that about 500 Friends are
participating in the vigils."
A total Of 1,073 Friends
participated in the vigil and
there were 900 IN the vigil
line at one time.
The letter, sent to both
boys and girls, did not coun-
sci evasion of the draft as
implied in The Star article.
Rather 1t raised the moral
question Of participation in
war. It challenged the young
people to consider their own
position and raised the posi-
bility Of alternative service.

device, and elected into sep

Major interests are in the
radiation measurer. It con-
tains two ionization cham
bers, each containing a gas
and a window in front to let
the radiation enter. Radiation
entering either chamber ion
ICES the gas inside. BY record
ing the measured changes in
the conductiyity of the gas,
one can tell how intense is
the radiation entering the
chamber. One of the cham
bers is sensitive only to ex-
IRENE ultraviolet radiation
and the other is sensitive
only to X-rays from the sun.
The chambers are designed
for an operative lifetime Of
one year. Both are mounted
so that the sun energies only

The Capitol Hill Commu-

ates your recent editorial.
Impact of Freeways."
We do not oppose the
planned freeway system, be-
cause it will better serve the
entire Metropolitan Area. The
Hardship and dismay" Of
some of us should not obstruct
orderly progress. However,
every known individual, bust
ness, and institution in our
area, whether directly af-
fected or not. is opposed to
the presently planned route of
the east leg of the inner loop
along either the east or west
side of Eleventh street Sc
and NE.
The Council proposes an
alternate route running down
Virginia avenue Sc. to the
Anacostia River, along the
North bank of the river, under
the Stadium approaches, and
the connecting to the North
leg of the loop at the pres
emily planned juncture.
Our reasons are these:
/. Approximately 10000
people will be displaced by
the present plan. Only a small
fraction of them would be
disrupted by the river route,
because the land is, for the
most part. undeveloped park
land.
2. The staggering cost Of
acquiring the land would
largely be eliminated. as the
Government already owns the
river area. Improvements
now existing along Eleventh
street would continue to pro-
duce for the city real estate
and income taxes.

An unnamed, deep-diving
sphere designed to operate
at depths Of more than eight
miles-an almost totally un-
known region-has been de-
signed by the U. S. Naval
Ordnance Laboratory.
1t is intended to carry re-
cording instruments into the
deepest ocean voids. to oper-
ate them automatically. and
to return them after days,
hours or weeks on the bot
tom. A full-scale test of the
entire device recently was
conducted off Nassau in the
Bahamas when laboratory
scientists and technicians
dropped the apparatus a
mile-and-a-half deep into
the ocean and successfully
retrieved it. The laboratory
will begin using the device
to make electromagnetic ra-
diation measurements on
ocean bottoms later this year.
Designed prim arily to
make magnetic, electromag-
netic and acoustic measure
mentS, according to a Navy
report. the apparatus also
can be used for underwater
photography, bottom sampl-
ing and deep ocean current
measurements. It has the
advantage Of eliminating al
together the human element
from its deep dives. It can
stay on the bottom. at any
depth. for a period limited
only by the capacity Of It's
recording equipment. Weight
is no problem. Almost any
heavy equipment can be low
cred and raised by the same
technique.
Has Nerve Center
Nerve center of the ap-
paratus is a sphere 80 inches
in diameter made of inch
thick steel. This holds the
sensing devices, recorders
and batteries. Attached to
the sphere are antennas and
under them an anchor re-
lease mechanism and a con-
crete anchor. Above the
sphere is a rubber. gasoline
filled f1otation bag, equipped
with a small radio trans
mitter.
When the complete system
is dropped from a ships side,
the anchor carries it to the
bottom. At a preset time, a
clock mechanism in the
anchor release fires an ex-
plosive coupling, severing the
anchor from the rest of the
system and allowing the
flotation bag to pull it to the
surface. Once free of the
water, the radio on top of
the bag begins sending out a
signal to the monitoring
stations. Recovery vessels
receive this signal and re-
trieve the device.
