The letter, addressed to Mr..

II am writing you to seek

which the Commission Of Fine

Importance. For reasons which
have never been fully explained,
the design Of projects com
templated by the Redevelop-
ment Land Agency are not re-
quired to be referred to the
Commission Of Fine Arts for
advice on the design, although
redevelopment plans are regu-
larly submitted to the National
Capital Planning Commission, y
"The Commission of Fine
Arts believes that the projects
Of the Redevelopment Land
Agency will affect the appear
ance Of the city of Washington
in a most important way. and
1t is vital that designs of struc-
lures in the central redeveloped
areas should be in harmony
with the character of WASH
ington as the Nations Capital"
Waterfront Cited
Mr.. Finley went on to say
that a major case in point is
the Maine avenue waterfront.
Because Of its location. the
waterfront will create a very
strong first impression upon
visitors entering the Capital
from all over the world, and
the design of buildings in this
location certainly should be
compatible with the dignity of
design of other structures in
the Nations Capital"
Later, Mr.. Finley explained
that his agency does not want
to receive all building plans,
but only to advise on major
projects. In addition to the
waterfront Mr.. Finley said he
had in mind such major items
as the setting" of the pro-
posed Tenth street Mall.

The
Rambler
&. Writes.
About a Poet
BY GEORGE KENNEDY

Alexis st. Leger Leger was
born in the French islands
of the Lesser Antilles in 1889.
He could not have been
more Ffench-as Kipling,
who was born in India, could
not have been more British.
He was of a family that
had lived in Martinique and
Guadeloupe and Hispaniola
for generations. They might
have arrived before 1920,
the first date in North
American history.
During a period of Carib- 4,
bean unrest, they lived in
New Orleans. They gave
three sons and three ships to
the Confederacy.
His was a family that al
ways sent their sons to Paris
for their education.
Some came back. Alexis
st. Leger Leger did not.
So far and further in this
account the Rambler is in
debted to a foreword by
Archibald MacLeish, former
Librarian of Congress.
Leger went with the dip
lomatic service and was sent
to China.
In a letter to MacLeish
written years after the event,
he told of riding across the
Cobb Desert. Something said
by a lama interested him
when he started.
Man is born in the house,
but he dies in the desert"
.
THIS WAS an interesting
and lasting bit of cud for
this Occidental ruminant all
the way across the desert.
Mile after mile he explored
its romantic connotations. +
But when he arrived at
grazing land on the other
side it was explained to him
in Oriental matter of fact
ness. It was an old belief
that "a dying man must be
exposed outside the tent, so
as not to soil the dwelling
place Of the living"
Alexis st. Leger Leger went
as high as q civil servant
could in the French foreign
service. In 1910 he was sec
retary-general Of the French
Foreign Office.
Then. came the fall of
France.i Alexis st. Leger
Leger did not go along with
thes capitulation. He left
France. The Vichy govern
meiltR Cancelled his citizen |
ship.
He went to England, then
came to the United States
His suggestions were valued
by our State Department.
But Al during his career,
Alexis st. Leger Leger had
an alter ego. This was the
poet. He gave him the very
un-French name of st. John
Perses p name that is, Brit .
ishsor irish.
1t is mot Alexis st. Leger !
Leger who has been a resi-
dent Of Washington for
almost 20 years, it is Ste
John Perse. And it was ST.
John rerse who was awarded !
the Nobel Prize for literature
yesterday.

Arts Commission Asks
RedeveIopment Voice

The Federal Fine Arts Com
mission today asked for q voice
in deciding the appearance Of
major projects in the Districts
redevelopment areas.
This request. sent to the Com
missioners, comes a few days in
advance, Of the conference of
urban wal off1cials on
methods for speeding up the
city's urban renewal program.
The Commissioners took the
request from the Fine Arts
Commission under study.
In commenting on the letter,
signed by Chairman David E.
Finley, Commissioner Robert E.
Mclaughlin said that he saw
some merit" in the suggestion,
but emphasized that he did not
want to approve the proposal
If 1t would further slow down
the redevelopment effort.
Scanned In Senate
The city's redevelopment pro-
gram is under study by the staff
of the Senate District Commit
tee, which plans to hold hear
ings early next year. The Fed
eral City Council has agrred to
a request by the House District
Committee to carry out an in
dependent study of the contro-
versial subject.
The Fine Arts Commission
and the District Commissioners
have clashed in the past over
the role Of the Federal agency
in the appearance of construc-
ton projects.
In line with an opinion from
the office Of the Attorney Gen.
eral, the Commissioners earlier
this year agreed to extend the
agency's advisory voice to all
construction projects in Old
Georgetown. The Commits
sioners' position had been that
the city should ask advice from
the Federal commission only
on construction involving his
toric buildings in Georgetown.
The Federal agency has q
stronger say in controlling the
appearance of buildings that
face certain Government monu-
mental areas, including the
Capitol Grounds and the White
House. This authority, under
the Shipstead-Luce Act, re-
quires the Commissioners to
take action on building permits

Old Homes Sought
For Large Families
NCHA Approves
Conversion to
Public Housing
By GEORGE WILSON
Star Stan Writer

Washington today opens the
door to q new public housing
program, hoping to find the
way out for 1,948 large families
who cannot find a decent place
to live.
The program calls for con-
verting some of the old but
solid homes in the District into
pulic housing units for these
large families, who have been
on the National Capital Hous-
ing Authority's waiting list for
years. A large family-in
h houSing g parlance - includes
nine or more persons.
The authority staff long has
been on the threshold of the
conversion program. Yester-
day the board members them
selves gave the go-ahead.
We're going to have to- do a
lot in the field Of rehabilitation
to meet the need for housing
large families" said Housing
Authority Chairman Robert e.
Mclaughlin in indorSing the
new approach.
Housing large families 'is the
most pressing single need from
q welfare standpoint" said
Welfare Director Gerard M.
Shea, also an authority board
member.
Old Homes Checked
"It's worth a try" said Ne
vile Miller, board member and
chairman of the Redevelopment
Land Agency. The RIA itself
has been having difiiculty hous-
ing large families displaced by
urban renewals.
The city'S launching Of the
conversion effort follows an
announcement October II by
Public Housing Administrator
Bruce Savage that his staff was
making spot checks of some of
the old homes in Northwest to
test the feasibility of the ap-
proach.
In a talk before the Poto.
mac Chapter of the National
Association Of Housing and Re-
development OfficialS, Mr..
Savage said conversion of pri.
vate homes would take away
the institutional look of pub
lie housing projects and pro-
vide quarters at minimum
cost. But he emphasized con.
version was only part of the
answer" Of meeting the hous-
ing needs Of the l96Os.
William r. Simpson, ir., act
ing executive director of WASH
ington'S public housing author
ity. agreed that conversion
would not solve completely the
problems of housing large
families. He gave these rea-
sons for trying out the idea:
. There is no indication SUD-
ply and demand will come in
balance. As of September 30.
there were l,948 large families
waiting for public housing units
OF four, five and six bedrooms.
But there are only 1000 of
such units in Washington and
the turnover in them is almost
nil. The housing authority
plans to build only ITO units of
those sizes within the next
three years.
. Sites for new public hous-
ing units are becoming increas-
ingly hard to find.
. Families with incomes low
enough to qualify for public
housing are steadily getting
bigger. The average family size
10 years ago in public housing
projects was SO persons. To-
day it is 4.8 persons.
. Highway construction and
Slum clearance are lengthening
the public housing waiting list.
. Stepped-up code enforce
ment by the city is reducing the
supply OF low-rent housing.
