Council To Rule On
Proposed Site For
Shopping Center
Change in Zoning
Needed for Multi
Million Project

Rockville may get a null
ti-million dollar shopping
center proposed for a loca-
ton in the heart of the city.
The City Council will hold
a hearing Monday, May Is at
the Civic Center, on the re-
quest for rezoning 10 acres on
Hungerford DIR. from Industrial
to commercial.
A group of local business
men, headed by Matthew M.
Wittenstein, propose to con-
struct the Home Furnishing
Mart patterned somewhat after
the Atlanta Merchandise Mart,
wherein a builder or a retail
customer can, under one roof,
purchase an entire packaged
home or all of the equipment
which goes into a home.
The Rockville Planning Com,
mission met Thursday night
and discussed this application.
The staff of the Commission
opposed the change in coming
for the following reasons:
L. Added traffic on the By
pass would necessitate the con-
struction of another "by-pass.A

MT. WlttenSteln told the
Planning Commission that this
program has been underway for
over a year and that his group
is now prepared for immediate
construction of the first phase
totalling some $4,000 square
feet of gross floor area and
parking for 1880 automobiles.
He said that he fully believed
that the use of the ground as
outlined represents the highest
and best use in keeping with
the pattern of development OF
the surrounding property, and
has the support of leading busi-
ness men in downtown Rock
vile.
The initial program repre-
sents an investment of over
1914 million. A further invest
ment of 81 million Is projected
for additional construction in
the center of Rockville.

WANTED: MORE MUSCLE
COP. Chief Finding
Porty Lacks '|ndions'
BY MARY McGRORY
Star staff Writer

Tine problem that William E.
Miller has discovered in his
first six months as chairman
of the Republican National
Committee can be sim ply
stated. He is running a party
that doesn't really like politics
very much.
Eighty per cent of the people
who stayed home on election
day last year, his researchers
tell him, were Republicans. OF
the $4,000 polling places be-
tween Maryland and Maine,
only 5000. or 10 per cent. were
manned by loyal workers pass
ing out G. o. P. literature.
With candidates, it's the same
story. There are at least a
dozen Republicans who would,
If you asked them very nicely,
be willing to consent to be cam
didates for President next time.
But will they run for Governor
or for Congress? The suddenly
political former President
Eisenhower and Mr.. Miller.
spend a good deal of their time
asking them in vain.
What we need" says Mr..
Miller starkly, "is warm bodies"
The lean. sharp, dapper Con-
gresham from New York, who
looks a little like the late
Jimmy Walker. is just back
from a tour of his political
domain. 1t took him to SO
States and four regional meet
ings with Republican leaders of
so States.
Muscle Important
He told them that what the
Republican Party needs is not
"a new image" but more
muscle" He told them to start
in the precincts and work up.
I'VE get murdered in the big
cities" he said in an interview
in his elegant office at Repub-
lican national headquarters.
"Why should we lose the Polish
vote? 1t wasn't our party that
sold Poland down the river at
Teheran."
Everywhere he went, he
heard voices. In the South, they
said: Give us Goldwater and
we'll go somewhere" In the
North, they said: You take
Goldwater and we're dead
Others keened that Dwight D.
Eisenhower is the only great
Republican. Still others insisted
Richard Nixon is the man.
Need Local Candidates
Mr.. Miller cut through all
this talk with an acid reminder
that they would have to go
looking under a rock for a
Republican candidate for the
Presidency in 1864 if they didn't
win the 1862 elections. He says
the Republicans have a real
chance to take the House"
There is no sense in being
Goldwater or a Nixon or a
Rockefeller Republican at this
stage of the game" he says.
What we need are local candi-
dates"
He is hoping that the coming
elections will produce number
of new faces.
Il envy the Democrats their
HarrimanS, their Roosevelts,
their Lehmans and their Ken
nedys. They had all had a
lifetime of public service be-
hind them. Look at Lehman.
He ran for Lieutenant Cover
nor of New York. 1t paid Sc, 500
a year. Then he went on to be
Governor and Senator. Can
I get anyone to run for Lieu

Congress and New Problems
When Congress reconvenes,
Mr.. Miller will have fresh prob
lens and a whole set of new
voices to contend with. There
will be, for one thing. the "Ev
and Charlie" show, the weekly
televised press conference of

Sons Journey Traced

sons Journey Traced
Gov. Rockefeller's survey
traced his sons journey by
catamaran-a double : hulled
native raft-from the village of
AgatS to where he repeatedly
set off to swim to shore.
The Governor circled over
two single-engine planes and
numerous canoes painstakingly
searching the shoreline.
The Governor had planned
to take an active part in the
search yesterday but changed
his mind and established a
command post at the home of
District Commissioner E. Jan
sen. He Cancelled a flight to
Pirimapoen village on Cooks
Bay. the nearest shore to the
point at which Michael started
swimming, and a later trip to
a settlement on a nearby river.
The Governor said he wanted
to secure coordination Of the
hunt and indicated he didn't
want to interfere in the pro-
fessional search operations.
1,20O-Square-MiIe Hunt
He checked the steps taken
to date, including a 1900
square-mile hunt over the open
sea by an Australian Catalina
amphibian and private planes
and canoes of native groups
patrolling the shore for $50
miles northwest of Merauke.
He also appealed to Ameri-
can missionaries and a United
States graves registration unit
in the area to join in the hunt.
A spokesman for the Cover
nor said the natives had been
alerted to watch for Michael or
the two metal cans which he
had used as an improvised raft
to help him ashore.
The lack of word about the
cans, the spokesman said,
heightened hopes for the youth
because 1T means the boy
probably did not drift to sea.
Otherwise the cans would have
been picked up on radar or by
a passing ship"
Cans Would Float
DR.. Wasting said the cans
could not have sunk because
they were sealed.
DR.. Wasting was reluctant to

Michael. But he said he did
not think Michael should be-

cause the currents were sea-
ward and the shore 31z miles
away.

provide buoyancy.
DR.. Wassing said:
II watched quite a long time
"a half hour or so-until all ]
could see we're three dots. They
were Michael and the cans"
DR.. Wasting said Michael
might still be in the woods,
adding: HE knew the area

Catamaran Loaded
The Dutch explorer said they
left the village of Agats on
Saturday morning and planned
to sail down the coast to Am
mankai village on the Eilenden
River. He said their craft may
have been heavily loaded but
declared it was not danger
ously so.
DR.. Wasting said they were
not advised to postpone the
trip because Of heavy seas
despite the statement by the
Dutch administrative officer at
Agats that he had warned them
against making the journey.
DR.. Wassing said they
stopped first at the village of
Pen on the sea before sailing
on the Eilenden River. Near
the mouth of the river, he said,
they ran into choppy seas and
a strong current. Water
splashed into the hulls Of the
craft.
Natives Swan Ashore
The natives travelling with
them baled out but the waves
soon filled the bottom of the
hulls. The natives, he said,
