The withdrawal of the Kalo-

the effort to rejuvenate the
IAdams-Morgan neighborhood is
akin to "a small child throw
ing a tantrum because he
can't have his way" Donald D.
Gartenhaus, chairman of the

mittee. said yesterday.
Mr.. Gartenhaus said with
out the delaying tactics of the
Kalorama Citizens Association
in our organization. we can do
nothing but travel faster and
succeed in our goals sooner"
The association withdrew
from the ms-Morgan COM
mittee. which is planning how
the neighborhood should be re-
newed. The committee voted
to work under the urban re-
newal program with the under
standing the emphasis shall be
on rehabilitating existing struc-
lures rather than wholesale
clearance.
The Kalorama group while on
the planning committee I'M
successfully fought to exclude

by Calvert street, Connecticut

from the urban renewal project
area. In withdrawing last
week, the Kalorama leaders
said they did not have adequate
representation on the Adams

Yu|e Stars to Twinkle
In F Street Canopy

A glittering Christmas canopy
of stars and garlands is planned
for downtown F street by a
committee of the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association.
The decorations will extend
along F street from Ninth to
Fifteenth street NV. and will
include 80 9-foot high illumi-
mated stars on strands strung
across the busy shopping thor
oughfare, according to Oscar I.
Dodek, president of the asso-
citation.
Mr.. Dodek said the canopy
effect will be formed by three
strands Of gold and silver
aluminium foil tanning out to-
ward the sidewalks from each
side of the Illuminated stars.
First for City
E. A. Pritchard, executive
vice president of the associa-
ton, said this will be the first
time such decorations have
been strung over a downtown
Washington street. The only
comparable projects in the past
were in 1923 and 1884, when
lights were strung along Penn
sylvania avenue NV. for
Shriners conventions, he said.
Mr.. Dodek said that the cost

The commissioner observed
that Mr.. Stromberg was seek
ing to substitute the cumula-
tive experience of the COM
mission and its staff for his
own. But Mr.. Stromberg said
he is merely seeking to spot
light information and to assist
the commission in reaching a
proper result.
Mr.. Stromberg recommended
that the transit company re-
duce current figures for acct
dents and damages to arrest
the growth of the reserve fund.
But he made it clear that he
would approach any reduction
very gradually.
He suggested the reserve
fund might be cut by 500, 900
annually and take eight years
to work of, but he would re-
view this every couple of years
to see how things are going.

Job Decline
Viewed With
Alarm Here

The Districts employment
director said today a drop in
employment last month might
be the beginning of a very
serious situation"
Fred Hetzel, director of the
United States Employment
Service here, said jobs dropped
by 2,100 in october.
Employment that month was
estimated at 715,200. Final fig
ures for September showed
7l7,300 jobs, sharp decline
from the earlier estimate Of
49, 900.
Employment has been de-
Ginning for three months. July's
jobs numbered 100000. In
August there were 719.200.
Mr.. Hetzel is particularly
disturbed because Of 1900 jobs
lost in october were In the con-
struction field. There is always
some decline in october con-
struction, but not often this
much, he said.
Ordinarily, a good-weather
October such as the one just
past would show only slight
decline in construction jobs.
Next to government" Mr..
Hetzel said, construction is
one of the most important or,
perhaps, the most important
indicator of area conditions"
Area employment in october
of 1859 was 100000, showing
effects of last years steel
strike.

Parking Fee
UrgedforU.S
Employees

The head of the Districts
Motor Vehicle Agency said last
night that Federal Government
employees should be made to pay
reasonable rates" for their
free permit-only parking spaces.
William Heath, director of
the parking agency, said the
Government should then use
the income derived from en-
ploye parking to provide needed
additional parking facilities.
In a talk sponsored by the
National Capital Planning Com
mission and the National Cap
ital Regional Planning Coun-
Gil, Mr.. Heath noted that there
are $4,000 Government spaces
and $1,000 Federal employees
who drive their cars to work.
Government employees, he said,
use 60 per cent of the city's
total $4,000 parking spaces
available. - -- ''
eft is my opinion that a pro-
gram could be developed by the
Federal Government wherein
there would be no subsidy but
a reasonable amount Of parking
coud be provided for Federal
employees at reasonable rates, "
Mr.. Heath said,
He said there are many ways
the Government could work out
the program and suggested
leasing Government lots to pri-
vate operators.
Mr.. Heath said later that he
would not be surprised" If the
current Budget Bureau, study
of Federal parking needs comes
up with the recommendation
that Government employees be
charged for their free parking
space.

Olde Georgetown-at least
part of its out to get itself
a new waterfront.
The same spirit which turned
old tenementS into row houses

lis building up around an effort
to push industry off the
Georgetown waterfront.
Miss Elizabeth Young, pres
ident of the Georgetown Citi-
zens Association, which is
spearheading the drive, says
industry may be all right in
its place but that place just
isn't Georgetown.
Our overall objective" she
said, lis to make Georgetown

civic and official forces.

Donald F. Bozarth, chief of the

is taking an inventory of the
buildings on the Georgetown

But Miss Young made 1t clear
the new waterfront should be
by the product of the people
themselves. 1--WE don't want
