on their urban renewal pro.
grams. the co-ordinator ap-
proach has been used"
He sees the co-ordinator as
the man giving overall direc-
ton to the city's urban re-
newal program, with the full
backing Of the governing body.
In the District, three inde-
pendent Federal agencies are
involved In urban renewal, the
National Capital Housing Au-
thority, National Capital Plan
ming Commission and Rede-
velopment Land Agency.
Sees Organizational Merit
There is q co-ordinating Of
flee within the District Gov
ernment. But its authority is
pretty much limited once the
RIA puts an urban renewal
plan into execution.
Col. Frederick ]. Clarke, the
District Commissioner in direct
charge Of urban renewal, said
yesterday he indorses the prin-
ciple Of some centralized au-
thority but is not convinced
that now is the time to push
for a reorganization.
Reorganization Sought
There is a great deal Of
merit on a purely organiza- =
tional basis" Col. Clarke said,
"m having one head who can
resolve basic conflicts as they
arise rather than settling them
through a compromises at the
conference table. Such conf
promises are naturally time
consuming"
He said the current urban
renewal setup is under study
by his department, adding
that the District Commission
ers ultimately must decide
whether to recommend legiS-
lation to redesign the ma
chinery.
The Senate District Com
mittee early next year, during
its investigation of Washing
toms urban renewal program,
will ask the District Commits
sioners about basic reorgani-
zation.
The House, too, has an in
terest in this question. A bill
sponsored by Representative
Democrat of Michi-
gan, who umpires the Districts
budget, would centralize urban
renewal authority with the
District Commissioners.
Despite strenuous opposition
by the Commissioners and the
Redevelopment Land Agency,
the bill this year passed the
House by nearly a 10-to-1
Evening star., 1960-09-25

margin. It died in committee
IN the Senate.
Also, the District League of
Women Voters studied the
urban renewal machinery and
recommended In May q basic
reorganization. There should
be established a single admin
istrative Office with authority
for the planning, direction and
implementation Of the urban
renewal program" the league
said.
Machinery Ineffective
Our machinery for directing
and implementing the urban
renewal program is self f-ob-
structing," the league said.
Delays have been caused, pri-
marlly, by the ineffectiveness
Of the urban renewal admin
istrative machinery. A piece
meal approach will not make
the needed difference"
AS it is now, the co-ordinator
Of the urban renewal program
Is an Army officer assigned to
the District, usually for three
years. The league objected to
this practice, declaring: THE
program to succeed must be
headed by an administrator
with definite authority and, be-
cause of the need for outstand-
ing ability and experience in
urban renewal and administra-
ton and the need for continui-
ty in office, the position should
only be filled by a civilian"
Col. Thomas K. Fullerton is
the present urban renewal CO.
ordinator. He agreed with the
league that centralized authori-
ty over the urban renewal pro-
gram was needed. The District.
Commissioners themselves have
not given an answer to the
league.

to view the country first

G.gJ Leroy, jr., a submarine

Travelling by car has given
the children a real opportu-

tenant on Gen. Jackson's
staff who came to Florida
to fight the Indians. The
property at first included
$40 acres just north of the
territorial capital.
1t. Call fell in love with
Mary Kirkham of Nashville,
whose mother disapproved of

Shooting the 4-pin spare
and the AZ are very similar
because they are both left-side
spares.
Both should be shot from
the right side of the lane. The
ball is released to the right Of
center and allowed to angle
across the lane and into the pin
or pins.
One slight difference between
the two spares comes in where
the ball hits the pins. For the
4-pin spare, the ball should
strike the pin solidly on the
right side.
For the At spare, the ball
should strike the 4 on the left
before also striking the 7 al
we illustrate. BY hitting both
pins with the ball, you make

I know you're practically
certain to convert the Al If
you hit the 4 on the right, just
