Ground Broken
For Apartments

Ofticials of Webb & Knapp,
Inc, today broke ground at
Sixth and M streets S.W., for
two luxury apartment houses, a
$3.5 million project that dupli-
Gates the firms two buildings
under construction at M and
Third streets in the southwest
redevelopment area.
The buildings started today
are scheduled to be completed
in a year. Each will contain
1913 units in nine stories.
The twin buildings on Third
street are scheduled for occu-
pancy by January. Blake Con-
struction Co., Inc, is the
builder.

eral aid. In 1857 the District
estimated 1855 million in high
way projects would qualify
under the interstate program.
Now the total estimate has
been increased to $3.50 million.
This indicates just how i'm
portant Federal aid is to the
city's road plans.
In the next few years the
concentration of construction
in the District will be on the
south leg Of the inner loop.
Next fall the new Four
teenth street bridge will be
open. The Channel Bridge and
the Twelfth street expressway,
which will handle northbound
traffic crossing from Virginia

freeway and then across the
new Channel and Fourteenth
street bridges.
"a Ninth street express
way, similar to the one
now under construction at
Twelfth street, may be ready
for outbound traffic some
time in 1869
The Southwest freeway will
be open to traffic all the way
from the Fourteenth street
bridges to First street S.W. in
the fall of 1862. This will pro-
vide a direct route to the Capt.
tol Hill area.
Eventually the center leg of
the inner loop will carry traffic
across the central part of the
city, with a tunnel proposed
under the Mall. The center leg

planned to get under way in
1865.
The timetable also is tenta-
tive on construction of the in
ner loops north leg. This will
run from about Florida avenue
and K street NE. over to
Twenty first street and Mas
sachusetts avenue NV. High
way officials say work may get
started on it in 1866.
The north legs route follows
Florida avenue and then
curves across the city at about
T street. finally tying in with
the west leg at Twenty first
street NV.
An extension Of the north
leg eastward generally follow
ing Florida avenue and Ben
ming road to Twenty-sixth
street NE, also is part of the
long-range plans. Construc-
ton is hoped for in 1866 or
1867.
On the other side of the city,
traffic will move along the west
leg of the inner loop from
Twenty first street and Mas
sachusetts avenue to Twenty
seventh and K streets NV.
The date for construction of
this portion of the belt is un-
certain. Oficials, however,
say, it probably will be done
in about 10 years.
Parkway Leg
The remaining link in the
loop will be constructed by the
National Park Service. This
portion, from the Tidal Basin
area, around the Lincoln Me-
mortal grounds to approaches
to the Theodore Roosevelt
Bridge, is considered a park
way and will not be open to
truck trafiic.
Included in the park service
plans is a tunnel to funnel the
heavy commuter traffic beneath
the Lincoln Memorial grounds.

Fifteenth street will be i'm

near Florida avenue and First
street NV. and with the South
west freeway at First street
S.W.
However, highway officials
have found George ]. Stewart,
Architect of the Capitol, cool
to the proposal for the center
leg tunnel. The question is how
close the access ramps should
be to the Capitol itself. Because
this question has not been re-
solved, the exact route for the
center leg has not yet been de-
trimmed.
Southeast Leg by '66
Rounding out the south leg
of the inner loop will be the
Southeast freeway, continuing
from South Capitol street along
Virginia avenue to a large in
terchange planned for Eleventh
street Sc. The Southeast free
way is scheduled for completion
by late 1865, or early 1865.
A new Eleventh street bridge
will be completed about the
same time.
The huge Eleventh street in
terchange, to serve traffic for
both the new Anacostia River
bridge and the Sousa Bridge at
Pennsylvania avenue, also will
be built by late 1865 or early
1866.
Meanwhile, Improvements are
being made to South Capitol
street, with an underpass now
being built at M street. M street
also is to be widened from
Eleventh street Sc. all the way
to Maine avenue S.W.
Shooting northWard from
the Eleventh street interchange
will be the east leg of the
inner loop. This stretch will
carry traffic along Eleventh
street to about Florida avenue
and K street NE.
Tentative Timetable
In that vicinity the east leg
will connect with a proposed
third route to Baltimore and
will also lead into the north
leg of the inner loop. Work

pressway, with some elevated
sections, and will var in width
from six to eight lanes.
The loop will carry traffic
around the congested city core
and allow smooth distribution
of traffic headed for various
points within the core.
Funds Awaited
Part of this long-awaited
inner loop now is under con-
Struction. The first section,
most of the Southwest freeway,
will be open for traf11c in late
1862.
The rest of the inner loop is
awaiting availability Of funds
before construction can pro-
coed. Highway officials, how
ever, hope most of the loop will
be completed in about 10 years.
Whenever District highway
officials discuss their timetable
for road construction, they
hedge what they have to say
with a big "if."
Most of the Districts plans
rest on a foundation Of Federal
highway aid for interstate
roads. These Federal funds
were recently cut back. Con-
gress soon will restudy the en-
tire Federal program and de-
termine the amounts of funds
each State and the District will
be allowed in the coming years.
Under the program, the Fed
eral Government pays 80 per
cent of the interstate roads
cost. Funds already have been
obligated or earmarked for
such interstate projects as the
Southwest freeway, the Poto-
mac River bridges and some
other road Improvements. The
District pays the remaining 10
per cent.
$40 Million Obligated
Since the Federal interstate
program got under way in 1857,
the District has obligated about
$40 million under the program.
It expects to obligate an addi-
tional $25 million by next
June.

lyle j. Lancaster, said they see
no need for a Federal investi-
cation of slot machines in
Maryland.
Mr.. Lankford said he could
see little difference in playing
slot machines and "going to
the race track and betting 50
on a horse"
Felt No Pressure
Mr.. Lankford said that in
his "12 to IA years in Mary
land politics." he has never
felt pressure one way or an
other from any slot machine
interests"
The statement was made in
answer to a question about his
reaction to a recent charge by
Maryland Democratic Treas
urer David Hume that slot ma
chimes are the biggest single
influence in Maryland politics. "
Mr.. Lancaster said that slot
machines are purely a local
matter" for the people OF
Southern Maryland.
A referendum to limit to IS
the number of slot machines
owned by one person or placed
in any one establishment is on
the ballot November 8 in
Charles County, one Of the four
Southern Maryland counties
where slot machines are legal,
Contributions Unknown
Both candidates said that, to
their knowledge. they have not
received campaign contributions
from slot machine interests but
probably would accept such
contributions if no strings were
attached.
Both said they have seen nc
evidence of slot machines being
imported into Maryland in vio-
lation of Federal laws.
In a discussion of the pro-
posed Potomac River compact
Mr.. Lancaster called Mr.. Lank-
ford q "habitual fence sitter
who puts a finger up to see
which way the wind is blowing
before he takes a stand.
Mr.. Lancaster has taken q
strong stand against the pro.
posed Maryland Virginia com.
pact, but Mr.. Lankford has saiC
he will be guided by the vote oi
the 5th district in the November
8 referendum on the campact
He refused yesterday to say how
he planned to cast his OWE
ballot on the compact.
Inclusion Of Bay
Mr.. Lancaster said the pro.
posed compact is a "giveaway,
because Virginia 'is giving
nothing" He reiterated his
position that the two States
should have a compact covering
the Chesapeake Bay in addition
