Like the man who built q
boat in his basement, the Fed
eral Aviation Agency has q
problem.
The chassis of the massive
mobile lounge to be used at
Dulles International Airport,
soon due for delivery from the
Chrysler Corp, in Detroit to
the Budd Co. in Philadelphia
for final assembly, is so big and
heavy 1t can't pass Michigan's
current road restrictions.
The 90-paSsenger vehicle, in
its final form, will be- 81 feet
long, Is feet wide and IT'S feet
high. BY comparison, the aver
age tractor trailer rolling
through Washington is so feet
long, 8 feet wide and IL to IL
feet high.
A Michigan State highway
official told The Star that a
permit for moving the chassis
had been issued some time ago,
but was revoked because of
snow, freezing temperatures
and highway load restrictions
during the winter months.
A Chrysler official said he
anticipates mo trouble" In
transporting the giant chassis
when the load restrictions are
lifted with better weather.
Mating" of the chassis and
body will be done at the Budd.
Co. in Philadelphia. After
testing comes still another
problem - moving the COM
pleted vehicle down the high
ways from Philadelphia TO
Washington.
There are reports IL might
even arrive by barge.

ONE OF THE remarkable
developments Of recent years
Is film so sensitive, or fast
as the photographers call 1t,
that pictures can be made in
almost any light.
AS for the rest, you proba-
bly, saw 1t and have your own
ideas.
Now I realize why the
press doesn't look good. 1t
takes a great deal of what
theater people call pres
ence" to be the one recog-
nized or the one who is
successful in asking the
question. And that doesn't
mean that the question will
be good,
The Rambler had no in
tention of asking a question.
He has little Jump left. Old
men have weak hams, as
Hamlet said. But he did wave
to Mrs. r.
When he got home she
thanked him for it. But in
quiry developed that she was
looking at someone on the
other side of the room.

On Area Plan
BY GILBERT GINTBLE
Star Staff Writer

The two top officials named
by President Kennedy to the
National Capital Transporta-
tion Agency were assured of
quick confirmation after a SEN
ate District Committee hearing
today.
Chirman Bible said the mem
bers of the committee want to
act fast so plans for develop
ment of a mass transportation
system here can move ahead
with top speed"
The two designated officials
are c. Darwin Stolzenbach, q
Montgomery County civic lead
er, who has been named to be
administrator of the agency,
and Joseph G. Matthews, named
to be deputy administrator.
Senator Bible said the only
reason their nominations were
not Immediately reported ia
vorably was that the Senate has
not officially received their
names from the White House.
The official documents are still
being procesSed.
But in effect" Senator Bible
told reporters, both of these
men have been approved by the
committee" The Senate must
confirm the nominations.
Senator Bible told Mr.. Stol-
zenbach his job is going to
be difficult" because of the
complexities of planning a re-
gional transportation system.
The main problem, the Senator
added, "boliS down to money"
Senator Sparkman, Demo-
crat of Alabama, who has been
conducting a hearing on met
ropolitan transportation needs
on a national scale, told the
District Committee I'VE ought
to have here in Washington
a mass transportation system
that will set an example for
this country"
Stanley B. Frosh, a member
of the Montgomery County
Council. testifying for Mr..
Stolzenbach, said the admins
traitor designate has worked
closely with the council in plan.
ming studies and that he will
do honor to the job"
Mr.. Frosh, questioned by SEN
ator Beall, Republican of Mary
land, about the five-year freeze
banning construction of a Wis
consin corridor link to Route
240 and a Glover Archbold
freeway, said he believes the
freeze is a hardship" for Mont
gomery County road planners.
During his testimony, Mr..
Stolzenbach said the freeze will
allow the agency ito do the kind
of regional Transportation PLAN
ming" Congress intended rather
than permit piecemeal planning
by the various local jurisdic-
tions within the Washington
region.
Mr.. Stolzenbach, who lives at
105l5 Meredith avenue, Ken
sington, has been a senior staff
of the Johns Hopkins
University's operations research
office for the past 10 years. He
is an economist and research
analyst.
Mr.. Matthews, who lives at
AIT Wake Forest drive, Alex
andria, has been an official
with the Association of Ameri-
can Railroads since 1857 and
formerly was with the South

Proposed Tax
On Cafe Meals
Says Budget Cuts
Make Exemption
Rise Possible
BY PAUL HOPE
Star staff Writer

@AAN4NIA4 SAJ4hJs wal 6Zs-\lOts :
Tawes said today changes will
be made in his proposed sales
tax on restaurant meals.
The Governor had proposed
that the sales tax be applied to
meals costing Is cents or more.
He said today at a press con-
ference, however, that the level
will be raised, possibly to ST..
Restaurant meals presently
are exempt from the sales tax.
There has been considerable
criticism of beginning the meal
tax at Is cents, which would
catch light lunches.
The tax on meals and lower
ing the starting point on other
purchases from 81 cents to Is
cents was recommended by the
Governor to finance a $9.1 mil
lion program of extra aid to
localities for education and
welfare programs.
Cites 81 Million Cut
The House Ways and Means
Committee has cut about 81
million from the Governors
proposed budget, and Gov.
Tawes said that with these cuts
his proposed tax on meals can
be raised about the 25-cent
level.
This week the Governor
handed the Legislature a sup
Elemental budget containing
about So million for programs
which were not in his original
budget. He said today this
would be financed from the
surplus which the State expects
to carry over at the end of the
next fiscal year.
Meanwhile, Gov. Tawes' $519
million budget began it's course
through the Legislature today,
bearing some heavy personnel
cuts made in committee.
At his weekly press confer
ence today, the Governor also
discussed these matters:
Political prestige-He said he
will be able to give a better an
Swer next week on the question
OF whether his political prestige
has been hurt in this legislative
session.

gong TO get much out of this

with the State Racing Com
mission after the session and
talk it over.
The answer to competition
from other States is to get
quality racing in Maryland"
In other legislative develop
ments:
JObless-The House voted to
accept q series of amendments
on a bill to tighten loopholes
in the jobless benefit program.
The watered-down bill now ap-
pears headed for a compromise
committee.

HE WAS NOTING with
amazement the appoint
ments in the room, the
number Of reporters and the
communications equipment.
The Presidential press con-
ferences certainly has grown
since the days Franklin D.
Roosevelt conducted them
with a wave of a cigarette
on a long holder at his desk
in the oval office in the
White House.
There was the occasion
when an obvious question
was asked by Bob Post Of the
New York Times. This was
in 1910 and the situation was
becoming more and more
obvious.
Bob asked the President
If he was going to run for a
third term. The President
ordered him to go into a
corner and put on a ounces
cap. Perhaps there were SO
reporters present, all stand
ing. The room could not
have held many more. Bob
was killed not long after. He
was in a plane on a bombing
mission over Western Europe
as q war correspondent.
Yesterday Joe Wills, of the
Senate Press Gallery, one Of
the managers of the show,
walked down the aisle an
nouncing that the attend
ance was 426-a record.
In addition to the number
Of reporters, pencils and
notebooks, the communica-
tions equipment was impress
sive. Two men on the stage
were operating two instru-
nents that resembled the
Gatling gun. The barrels
were more than 6 feet long
and mounted on tripods.
They were directional micro
phones. They were pointed
at the reporter asking ques-
tions.
There were more than go
men operating cameras and
sound equipment. There were
newsreel cameras with two
reels mounted above the
box. There were the tele-
vision cameras giving a live
report, audio and video, to
millions of homes. And there

raphers with small German

By Hal BoyIe

NEW YORK LR - Call us an old sentimentalist if you will, but we hate to see the decline and fall of cash.
 Cold hard cash has given way in importance to warm soft credit.
 Money is disappearing from public life. You hardly see it any more
 Remember when you were inn pressed by someone with a bulg ing wallet, you'd whistle and say, The has a role big enough to choke an ox"! Today the roll a real big shot carries would hard ly give hiccups to a mosquito.
 A man is no longer known by the company he keeps, but by the number of credit cards that keep him.
 Anyone who flashes a big wad of bills now is automatically put down as pitiful shoWoff, a .bookie or a counterfeiter.
 Sensible counterfeiters m t have quit making fake money years ago and turned to manu- featuring fake credit cards. That would seem to be the real mass market.
 The trend away from the pub lie use of money must have had other impacts on the criminal world.
 Veteran pickpocketS still filch hundreds of mems wallets each year in Manhattan, but it must be merely from force of habit or be- cause they are simply too old to learn a new trade. In most cases they could probably earn more by picking the gold from their own teeth.
 There was a time when the working man on payday would carefully hide his earnings in his socks so muggers couldn't rob him on the way home. Not any more He usually brings his paycheck.
The Nome nugget., 1961-03-06
Cold Hard Cash Has Given Way In
 Importance to Warm Soft Credit

-or what's left of it after all the deductions - home in his mouth, like a dog fetching the newspaper. He is no longer worth robbing.
 The favorite targets of muggers now are little old ladies. They re- tain an old-fashioned penchant for cash and often have a Wad of it stuffed somewhere in those huge baggage-sized pocketbooks they lug around.
 But the motto of practically every one else appears to be, "take the credit and let the cash go."
 Only bankers cling to money, as such, in large denominations. They still keep their vaults clut- tered with the big green stuff, but this may be merely out of re- spect for tradition, too.
 As space gets more valuable, they may have to buy money shredders to get rid of it, or force Congress to store it somewhere at government expense.
 Yes, money itself has become a nuisance. It has lost caste. It has been replaced by that new trinity of financial prestige-the checkbook, the installment plan and the credit card.
 Yet now and then we confess to notalgic feeling for the days when cold hard cash ruled the land.
 With ready money you knew exactly what it would do and how far it would go. But how about ready credit? Just what will it do, and how far will it go?
 Money was in style for a long time. It might come back-that's why we wish sometimes we had held on to some.
