better?" was the question
which q dozen of Montgom-
cry County's prominent plan
ners, architects and govern
ment officials sought to an
swer in a day-long conference
at the Indian Spring Country
Club last week.
Sponsored by the Suburban
Maryland Builders .Associa-
ton, the conference took the
form of a round-table discus
sion of planning policies and
programs in suburban Mary
land, with special emphasis on
future land development in
the face of population projec-
tons.
Phrases like urban sprawl,
satellite cities, open spaces,
transportation corridors and
density development got a
thorough working-over, as
panelists agreed that some al
tentative must be found to
"cancerous standardization"
More than 200 interested
citizens who attended the con-
ference heard Blair Lee III
call for new thoughts, vision
and imagination in planning
for the future development
of this area"
Preserve Open Space
There was general accord
thtt open space must be pre-
served and that "compensa-
tory higher density is corol-
larry" but opinions differed
over the amount of open
space and the degree of popu-
lation concentration desirable.
Dean A. M. Woodruff, chair
man of the National Capital
Regional Planning SSuncil
cited The Year 1000 Plan for
the area which calls for de-
velopment of cities of some
100000 population, much OF it
concentrated in tower apart
ments located along transpor-
tation corridors which are
separated by open space.
Latest plans developed for
this area by the Maryland

striking resemblance" to the
regional plan, said Arthur
Stellhorn, planning director
for the Commission.
New Zoning Concepts
1t was learned that new
concepts in coming to control
density have been under
scrutiny in both Prince

Not too long ago, mea sured bya
geological yardstick, couple of
peaks in western New Mexico blew
til cir juniper-tufted tops. They
made a mess out of the country
side for 20 miles this way and so
miles that way.
The lava that oozed down the
slopes, burning and staining black
the sagegreen valley floor, was not
pretty sight. Today, thousands Of
years later, it still is not pretty
sighr--but it is a sight to see.
Picture gigantic lake of boil
ing, blubbering molten rock. Sud-
denly, its incendiary ebullience is
petrified by the cool air and every
tortured twist and Writhinggnarl is
preserved in solid stone as blaCkaS
a noonless midnight.
That is what had happened here.
And as the lava cooled, gaseous
substances formed, within the flow,
creating blisters. These bhsters
popped ard caved in, pock-mark-
ing the lava bed with caves and
blowholeS.
Every cleft and crack IN this
ebony world invites exploration.

Monthly Progress Report

Under the Ander Son-Udall Pro-
gram, construction is under way on
five projects in the Tuba City-Kay-'
enta area and the contract ha s been
awarded for the construction of the
final link from Marsh Pass to
Kayenta. Another month should see
the completion of the projects in
the Marsh Pass area, which will
provide pavement all the wayfrom
Tuba City to within eight miles Of
Kayenta.
Two projects are under contract
in the Shiprock District of Route /.
One includes 18 miles OF road from
the end OF the pavement, near Red
Mesa, to Walker Greek. Progress
is good ard the pavement should be
in place this summer. The other
project includes three bridges, one
at Walker Greek, one at Laguna
Greek near Donnehorso, and one at
Church Rock Wash ca st of kayenta.
The contractor is moving in and 1t
is expected that these projects will
be completed this summer.
Under the regular program. the
first ten miles of road from Fort
Defiance to Navajo, New Mexico,
has been completed and accepted.
The placing of pavement on the re-
naming 81 miles is beginning and
should be in place by the first Of
August. This project includes thc
construction Of bridge + 0 s s
Todilto Wash at the south end of
Red Lake. A relocation of part Of
the Hunters Foint-Lupton Road
slowed up construction but pro-
gress is now good. Three projects
are under way in the LukaChukai-
Round Rock area but it is question:
albe whether paving will be in place
from Many Farms to Round Rock
or from Round Rock to Lukachukai
this summer.

Frozen Black Lake

narrow and precariouS path, fea-
ture which found favor with gang
of early Southwestern train-rob-
bers. They could defend 1t easily
and made it their home, in two log
cabins, between hold-ups.
Because of the many badmen
who sought refuge in this fore
boding land during the Wild West
days, the section became known
as malpais, "bad country"
The high mesas overlooking the
lava flow, reveal evidence OF pre-
historic occupancy. Zuni Indians
claim their ancestors lived in
pueblos close by. Trails grooved
and poll shed by mocassined feet
over the black rock verify the
claims. Some caves have yielded
pottery sherds and stone metates
of an even earlier habitation.
1t would seem this bleak world
of blackneSs, bli listers and blow
holes, would be undesirable to life,
either human or animal but this is
not SO. The lava flow exists as
curiosity and challenge to hu-
mans. To Wildlife, deer and big
horn sheep, it is a sanctuary. The
rattle snakes, horned toads and
mice who live here have absorbed
the coloring of the area.
Most impressive phenomenon of
the lava flow are the ice caves.
One of the largest, IA feet high
and so feet wide, is tucked away
in one end of spacious blowhole,
roughly Is feet below the surface.
The inside is lined with a tur-
quoise wallpaper of ice. This ice
is perpetual. Though the sun shines
into the cave during New Mexico's
hottest days, the ice never melts.
Ancient legends of the Navajo
Indians do not accept the scientific
conclusion that this black stain on
the surface of New Mexico is lava.
To them this is the blood of the
evil giants and the mOnStrouS
beasts who preyed upon their peo-
pie. The black blood flowed, not
when volcanoes erupted, but when
the Twin Gods of War slew the
giants and the beasts in combat
that shook the early, early South
west.

come to Gallup largely because
of her interest in the variety of
cultures represented in the area,
Weaver noted.

Commissioner Crow Speaks
On indian Problems


views on what needs to be done in
a given situation are sharply di-
vergent. Yet We always have to
consider the opinions, the pre-
conceptions and the prejudices of
all three or we have little chance
of sound and lasting success in our
undertakings. If we ignore the
wishes and wants of the Indians
and attempt merely to placate the
Congress or some segment OF the
non-Indian public, we are obvious
ly not doing the job that the Bur-
eau was set up to accomplish. If
we disregard the Congress, we
will, l can assure you, quicklyfin
ourselves in trouble and are most
likely to experience painful diff
ficulty in getting either the author
izing laws or the appropriated
funds which we feel are necessary
for beneficial Indian programs.
And if we overlook the general
public, we can easily subject our
selves to an intense and highly
charged barrage of criticism that
will make it almost impo ssible
for us to move effectively for
ward in our operations.
So we have to shape up our
policy decisions and conduct our
activities in kind of three-sided
goldfish boWl--if anyone can con-
ceive of such monstrOsity--and
we have to weigh and balance
and sometimes reconc lie the vary
ing points of view. And that brings
me to my third thought, which in
wolves the Importance of Commun-
ication. Precisely because our op-
erationS are SO complex and we
have to deal with so many diverse
shadings of opinion, there is, in my
judgment, no really good sub
stitute for exercising the old jaw
bone in resolving the more diff
cult dilemmaS and perpleXities
that face us in Indian affairs. Com
munication is the most effective
caralyst we have for harmcnizing

because it afforded me an almost

cerned in the field of Indian af-

And now let me turn from these
rather general considerations to
some more specific topics which
| believe are the outstanding items
of conc ern nowadays to Indian peo-
pie throughout the country. AS

The United States agency

The story, from a CORE
Spondent on board, said the
purpose of the cruise is to per-

operations with surface vessels.
The Soviet news agency Tass
relayed the story. The CORE
spondent described the sub
marine as having "a snub nose.
recalling somewhat the nose of
conventional transport planes,
and a small elastic tail like
the tail fin of a big sturgeon"
Although the crew say their
submarine is big one, this is
so only relatively speaking" the
reporter wrote. The overall
dimensions of the sub. just like
those in any other submarine
vessel, are limited and the de-
signers did a fine job in solving
the difficult task of examining
into a small space the reactors,
the shielding and the various
gear needed to convert nuclear
energy into mechanical"
The reporter said the crew %
completely shielded from atomic
