Vast Growth
Forecast for
North Virginia
Study Sees Census
Of ~ to z Million
By the Year 1000
BY DANA BULLEN
Star Stan Writer

Regional planners think
Northern Virginia's population.
may reach the million mark
by the year 1000.
In a report released today by
the Northern Virginia Regional
Planning and Economic Devel-
opment Commission, Consultant
Jerome P. Pickard forecasts a.
population of 895,000 by 1870,
IL million by 1880 and IT mil
lion to 2 million by the end
Of the century.
The report is the result of
six months Of study by Mr..
Pickard. research director of
Hammer & Co. Associates Of
Washington, and the commits
sion'S staff. 1t is the first Sec
ton of a regional master plan
being prepared by the COM
mission.
Federal Projects Noted
Mr.. Picard said today the
population growth during 1861
1870 will be perhaps $4,000
greater than the increases of
the last decade.
Certainly the need for high
ways. schools, utilities and all
forms of public investment will
also increase"
He said a major factor in
the growth will be the location
of new Federal facilities in the
region. New facilities will in
clude the CIA headquarters,
Dulles international Airport,
new roads and, possibly, a lit
tie Pentagon for the Navy, he
said.
THE impact of new Federal
facilities expected during 1860
1870 will be parallel to the
effect of the new Federal install
lations. including the Pentagon,
built in Northern Virginia dur
ing l940-l950," said Mr.. Picard. |
1900 Square Miles Covered
The report, seen by planners
as a regional preview Of the |
1860 census. discusses popula-
ton, housing. family income,
employment and urban devel-
opment during 1950-59 and
then looks into the future.
The study area includes Ar
lington, Fairfax, Loudoun and
Prince William Counties and
the cities Of Alexandria and
Falls Church-covering over
1900 square miles.
The expected population in
crease, which would make
Northern Virginia as heavily
populated in the year 1000 as
the entire Washington Metro
politan Area was in 1855, is
expected to result from an
Irresistible tide of develop
ment" that the planners say is
inevitably coming"
In 1859, according to the
study, there we're 900 peo-
pie in Northern Virginia. With
only 33 per cent of the total
land area of Virginia, Northern
Virginia contained, in 1859, IS
per cent of the States popula-
ton.
Development Traced
The years until 1870, the
planners say, should see the
following developments:
Alexandria, which increased
from a population of 65,225 in
1850 to 90,350 in 1859, should
reach a population of 10000
in 1870. The rate of growth
was 38.5 per cent during 1850
1859 and should be % per cent
during 1959-70.
Arlington, which rose from
135,449 in 1850 to 170,150 in
1859. is expected to increase to
10000 by 1870. The rate of
growth was 25.6 per cent for
1950-59 and should be IL per
cent for 1959-70.
Fairfax County, which
swelled from 95,119 in 1850 to
$4,000 in 1859, should reach

Bond Rise
Called
InMlessoge
By GARNETT d. HORNER
Star star Writer


President Eisenhower told
Congress today it is "impera-
tive" to remove the ~ per
cent interest rate ceiling on
long-term Government bonds.
The President asserted that
failure Of Congress to take such
action last year has driven the
Treasury's short-term borrow
ing costs "to the highest levels
in several decades"
A 1918 law limits to AZ per
cent the interest that may be
paid on Government bonds
with a maturity date of i've
years or more. There Is no
limit on the interest rate for
shorter term bonds.
The Treasury says it is un-
able to sell long-term bonds at
the ~ per cent rate, and must
rely on short-term borrowing.
Sends Special Message
The latest Treasury bills,
with a 13-week maturity, sold
at an average yield of 4.59 per
cent. At the same time. a "a
week issue drew a rate of 1889
per cent. A record high of
5000 per cent was reached last
week.
Mr.. Eisenhower's special
message, his first of this year,
was one of the shortest he has
ever sent to the Capitol. It
renewed plea he made unsuc-
cessfully last year. He urged
then that the interest rate
ceiling be removed entirely.
giving the administration full
responsibility for managing
the Government debt at the
best terms it could obtain
Because Of objections by
many members of Congress to
high and rising interest
charges, Congress last year did
not approve ceiling-removal &C
ton.
Text of Message
The text of today's message
follows:
"As I said in my state-of-
the-Union message, the Treas
ury is being prevented from
taking debt management ac-
tions that are fully consistent
with the public interest because
of the artificial interest rate
ceiling on new Treasury medi-
um-term and long-term issues.
In a special message to the
Congress on June 8, 1859, I
urged the removal of this
restriction on flexible
debt management.
Congressional inaction on
that request has resulted in a
much more rapid increase in
short-term debt than would
otherwise have occurred. AS a
result. short-term Treasury
borrowing costs have risen to
the highest levels in several
decades and the ability of debt
management to operate in a
manner consistent with sound
of sustained economic
growth has been seriously un-
dermined.
Il deem it imperative, there
fore, that this restrictive CELL
ing be removed. I am asking
the Secretary of the Treasury
to transmit to the Congress
proposed legislation designed to
attain this objective"

johnson Group
May Head Off
Liberal Move
Supporters Weigh
Asking Vote Of
Confidence First
By J. A. OTEARY
Star stan Writer

Supporters of Senate Demo-
cratic Leader johnson may
move in the party conference
late this afternoon to author
ize him to continue to appoint
Policy Committee members.
If this proposal is adopted,
it would be equivalent to a
vote of confidence in the ma
jority leader, who has been
under attack by liberal Demo-
Gratis for exercising too much
power.
This resolution, If offered,
would head of the move by
Senator Gore of Tennessee to
enlarge the Policy Committee
and have it elected by the
party conference.
In advance of the conference,
Informed sources said a sub
stantial majority Of the 65
Democratic Senators would vote
against any change in confer
ence procedure unless Senator
johnson decides to offer some
concession to the liberals in the
interest Of party harmony. An
equally reliable source said
there were no indications the
leadership was considering such
a compromise.
Meanwhile. the policy COM
mittees Of both parties met
separately to discuss legis-
lation the Senate should con-
slider in the next few weeks.
The Democratic policy group
decides what bills will be
taken up first. The Democratic
school construction bill, calling
for 81 billion over two years,
and a clean election bill, regu-
lating campaign expenditures,
appear to be slated for early
consideration.
Democrats Debate
The Democrats aired their
differences over how party pol
icy should be made during more
than an hour of sharp debate
in the Senate yesterday.
Some Of the Democrats de-
plored washing the party linen
in public, while others gloried
in the debate as further proof
of the ability Of Democrats to
disagree and to assert their in
dividual views.
The debate was touched off
by Senator Gore, who wants
the policy committee to chart
party policy and not function
merely as a traffic policeman in
deciding when the Senate
should take up bills already
approved by legislative COM
mittees.
AS a first step, Senator Gore
has proposed that future va
cancies on the committee be
filled by election in the DEM
ocratic conference, and that
the committee be enlarged to
better represent all areas and
points of view. He insisted his
move does not arise out of any
hostility to Majority Leader
johnson, who now appoints the
committee membership.
MY esteem for him as a
man and leader has been stated
many times in many places. 3"
said Senator Gore. "He is the
ablest Democratic leader to
serve the Senate in my life
time"
Wants Policy Clarity
But Senator Gore said his
concern is that the Democratic
Party have an orderly way of
laying down party policy on
the important issues facing
Congress, so that the voters
may be able to distinguish be-
tween Democratic and Repub-
lican policy.
He made it clear that he
thought the Democratic leader
ship has gone too far in the
past in compromising with the
Eisenhower administration in

Campbell Hurt in Crash
With $4.5 Million Car

BONNEVILLE SALT FLATS.
Utah, Sept. l6 (AP) Donald
Campbell, British speed driver,
was injured and his 4,250-
horsepower auto, Bluebird II,
was badly damaged when the
car went out of control at 300
miles per hour this morning.
But Mr.. Campbell's injuries
did not appear serious and he
declared at a hospital that he
was ready to go again" in his
quest for a new auto speed
record.
Peter Carr, chief of the Blue
bird project, said extent of
damage to the $4.5 million
Bluebird was not known. He
said a decision as to whether an
attempt will be made to put
the car into racing shape for
another try this fall will await
further examination and con-
sultation, possibly later today,
Mr.. Campbell was taken to a
hospital in Tooele, Utah. about
100 miles east of the salt flats.
He was accompanied by his
wife, Tonia.
Mr.. Carr and Mr.. Campbell
had cuts on the side of the
head about the ear which re-
quired a number of stitches,
He also had cuts and bruises
on the elbow and knee. He
walked into the hospital from
a Utah highway patrol am
bulance, and did not appear to
have any broken bones. How
ever, he was given extensive
X-ray examinations.
Mr.. Carr said he was follow
ing Mr.. Campbell when he
crashed. but he did not see the
actual wreck and did not know
what happened.
Mr.. Campbell already had
completed one run over the l2-
mile course at about 800 miles
per hour and was making a
return run when the car veered
out Of control. 1t apparently
went into a spin, and hipped
over three times. Both wheels
on the left side were ripped of
There was no fire, although
fuel spilled about the wreckage.
Crash Unexplainable
Mechanics were unable to
explain the crash. They said
the car was in perfect condi-
ton when examined after COM
pleting the first run.
Observers at the nearest
check point said it appeared
the powerful a u t o was &C
celebrating at a tremendous rate
when it went out of control. II
so, it appeared the crash prob
ably was caused by the same
forces which resulted in the

Sex Offender Files Are Checked
For Clue to Slayer Of Child

year in Washington, police had
complaints of a total of Sc
cases.
Capt. Sullivan emphasized
that parents should never let
young children out by them
selves if they have to 60 far
from home, and should en-
courage them to walk back and
forth from school with a group
of children if possible.
"They should never take
rides with strangers" he said,
because that is one of the ways
perverts operate.
"They usually pull up in a
car and ask, DO you know
where so and so is?' The child
usually says no, and the man
says, Well, where do you live,
sonny? Fine, I was going there
anyway. Why don't you get
in the car and I'll take you
home
The last case in the District
that paralleied this one was in
April, 1857, when the nutilated
body of 8-year-old Valerie Lee
was found near the railroad
tracks in Northeast Washing
ton. Her rape-s!aying has never
been solved.
Capt. Sullivan said that to
his knowledge the / ee case is
the only other perversion- kill
ing of a child here that IS still
unSolved.
We've always been able to
solve these crimes. Our luck's
been good UP to now. Let's hope
1t stays that way" he said.
