hackers of the bill-shall be

AS originally drafted, the bill
would outlaw multi-stock COM
panies. An amendment put on
yesterday by the House Ways
and Means Committee would
allow the multi-stock COM
panies in existence and in op-
Grafton as Of January /, 1861,
to continue in business.
Il am unalterably opposed to
any amendment to the bill, and
I shall continue this position
unless instructed to the con-
trary by the commission" said
Richard Case, chairman of the
commission which drafted the
bill.
The commission will meet
here tomorrow to go over the
list of amendments.
Time for Inspection
The powerful Ways and
Means Committee agreed to
hold the bill until next week
to give the commission time
to look over the amendments
before the bill comes up for
a vote on the House floor.
Delegate Blair Lee, III,
Democrat of Montgomery, had
planned to put on an amend
ment to tax savings and loan
associations, but after the
committee got through with
its amendments he changed
his mind. He said the bill al
ready is in enough trouble"
without tacking on another
amendment.

Cigar Box
Isn'tu Safe,
Suit Says

1t makes a difference, ac-
cording to two suits filed in
Municipal Court, whether a
man keeps money in q steel
safe or a cigar box or q beer
cooler.
Both suits were filed by the
Nation Wide Check Corp. of
5207 Wisconsin avenue NV.
The firm is in the money order
business.
In the first suit, the COM
pany alleges it contracted with
Charles Gotkin, a grocer, for
him to sell the firms money
orders at his store, 343 Thir-
teenth street Sc.
A term Of the contract, ac-
cording to the suit, provided
that Mr.. Gotkin would be liable
to the company for any lost
funds unless the money was
taken by an armed robber or
from a steel safe.
The store was burglarized last
July, the suit said. and $458.42
in money order receipts taken
from a beer cooler beneath the
cash register.
In the second suit, the COM
pany alleges it made the same
type Of arrangement with Ben
Peltin, who operates a grocery
at HOO w street NV.
Mr.. Peltin's store, the COM
pany said. was broken into last
May and $305.27 in money order
payments taken from a cigar
box under the front counter.
The company's attorney,
Jacob Sheeskin, said both
grocers refused to compensate
the firm for the lost money.
This, the Nation Wide firm
claims, was breach of contract.
The company is asking for
$458.42 and costs from Mr..
Gotkin and $305.27 and costs
from Mr.. Peltin.

Culture Center Bill
Put Off Inn Spared
Keurns Yields
After Compoign
By Water Gate

Representative Kearns, Re-
publican, of Pennsylvania, has
agreed to hold in allegiance his
bill to expand the National
Cultural Center site in Foggy
Bottom.
He made the promise in a
letter to Mrs. Marjory Hen
bricks, president of the Water
Gate Inn. The restaurant
would be demolished by the
expansion of the site.
This victory for Mrs. Hen
bricks was the result of a con-
centrated effort through Feb
ruary to gain support for her
view that the Water Gate
should remain "as is" until the
Cultural Center becomes an
actuality. She sent out on
February 10 a duplicated Dear
Fellow American" letter stat
ing her case. Readers we're
urged to write, wire or phone
members of Congress and the
Cultural Center Commission.
She also wrote to Mr.. Kearns
on February 3, saying, II am
truly shocked to learn that a
Representative from Pennsyl-
vania has fathered House Bill
988 because if your bill passes.
my automatically decorated
Pennsylvania Dutch restaurant
may be destroyed"
Plaza Planned
The property at the juncture
of F street with the Rock Greek
parkway in Foggy Bottom is on
the spot where a granite plaza
with a center fountain is
planned in the proposed center.
| Mr.. KearnS' bill, introduced
at the request Of the Cultural
Center Commission, called for
expansion of the center prop
erty to F street on the north
west. The land is needed to
encompass the SIS million CEN
ter envisioned by Architect Ed
ward Durrell Stone.
Representative Kearns as
sured Mrs. Hendricks that he
found her arguments very per-
Suasive. A restaurant, the cul-
mination of the owners private
enterprise for 80 years, and
the means of livelihood for 90
employees, should not be de-
Stroyed until the Government
needs the land so that con-
struction can begin, Mr.. Kearns
said. The private commission
currently'S engaged in a fund
drive to finance the first stage
Of the center.
II Sponsors Fearful
The KearnS decision is a blow
to center sponsors, however,
who feel solicitations will be
damaged unless all the land
for the center is acquired.
Mr.. Kearns geared the time
for a new decision on bill ac-
tion to President Kennedy's
review of center plans. The
President is to make two ap-
pointments to the board Of
trustees.
r epre sentative Thompson,
Democrat of New Jersey, an
original sponsor of the center
authorization, said this week
that the planning for the arts
center had been very badly
mishandled." Although Mr..
Thompson is close to President
Kennedy and has had numer-
Gus conferences with him about
legislative matters, the New
Jersey Democrat said he had
not nor did he plan to discuss
the center with the President.
They've got to get some peo-
pie on that board who can run
it and stop making a social
affair out of it," Mr.. Thompson
said. He added that he favored
the Foggy Bottom site as au-
thorized by Congress and would
not support expansion.
The $75 million design was
beautiful but grandiose" to
Mr.. Thompson. He saw no
reason for spending that much
money.
The Senate sponsor of the
center authorization was Sem
ator Fullbright, Democrat Of
Arkansas.

BUT THEY FORGAVE
him. The Welsh are a friend
ly lot until they get into a
fight - and they appreciate
any interest in st. David.
And, fortunately, they were
not wearing leeks.
The truth is ION the au-
thority of the Encyclopaedia
Britannica), st. David only
converted about half Of
Wales.
st. David's in Pembroke, to
which he moved the seat of
his ecclesiastical government,
is still the cathedral city Of
Wales.
It is thought he was born
and died in Wales and lived
almost the full length of the
sixth century. He was active
in South Wales but never
penetrated further north
than the region of Powys.
John Wesley did much
better. But to this day, there
are 10000 persons about 200
miles from London who can't
speak English. They speak
Welsh.
Never run down the Welsh.
A low character named Pistol
tried it in Shakespeare's
Henry ""
Never mock the leek.
For countless generations
the Welsh wore a leek in
their cap on st. David's Day.
A very Objectionable custom.
Never question it. Ancient
Pistol said to Capt. Fluellan:
Hence! I am qualmish at
the smell of leek."
And Fluellan, after beating
Pistol about the head, said:
IF you can mock a leek,
you can eat a leek."
And Pistol ate it.
Recently we have had a
treat on TV. The British
Broadcasting Co.'S produc-
ton of the King Henry Series
has been imported on tape
and shown locally by WTTG
IS.
Shakespeare wrote at the
end, or shortly after, the 18th
Century, the century of the
great change, the Reforma-
ton.

tions-in this case not Chris

Foggy Bottom
Plaza Design
Project Requires
Matching Funds
From District
BY GEORGE WILSON
Star Staff Writer

|
The design of luxury apart
ment development for Foggy
Bottom was approved today by
the National Capital Planning
Commission.
Known as Columbia Plaza,
the project will be built after
the land for it is assembled
under the urban renewal pro-
gram. The complex of a hotel
and apartments will provide
1900 living units in the heart
of the city on the eight acres
bounded by Twenty third
street, Virginia avenue. West
Leg of the Inner Loop and E
street NV.
A syndicate headed by James
F. Salkeld, salesman for the
Shannon g. Luchs real estate
firm, will build the project at
an estimated cost of $25 mil
lion.
The planning commission
approval is the first of two
major actions required to bring
the plan into being. The Sec
ond required action is approval
by the District Commissioners.
Legal Questions
Brig. Gen. Frederick j.
Clarke. District Engineer Com
missioner, although indorsing
the Columbia Plaza concept.
said the Commissioners have
several legal questions to re-
solve before they can approve
the proposal.
Gen. Clarke said the hotel,
proposed to be 100 feet high, is
80 feet above the standard
maximum and will require an
exception. He also said there
are some problems in the Dis
trict'S coming up with the
required matching funds.
Under the urban renewal law,
the District must put up one
third of the net cost of assem-
bling and clearing the land. ]
However. there is a possibility ;
the District can provide its ,
share by donating the old ,
Toner School at 1924 F street |
NV.
The school is estimated to be
worth $315,000. This is Just :
about what the District is ex- =.
pected to have to contribute to 4.
the urban renewal project. The
question is whether the District
can donate the school under the /
urban renewal law to the Re- I
development Land Agency, l
which will buy up the property q
for the Columbia Plaza develop 9
ment. 4
Suggests Solution
John r. Searles, jr., execu- \
tive director Of the RIA, Of d
fered way out Of this dilemma a
at today's meeting. He said c
RIA could buy the school from y
the District. thereby giving the
city the money it needs for
matching. Gen. Clarke said he
would take up the idea with u
District legal aides. -
Arthur H. Keyes, jr., archi- v
tect of Columbia Plaza, said his y
design was unusual in that 1t 6
provides a large courtyard in E
the heart Of the city and park n
ing for $500 cars under the $
apartment houses. He esti- i
mated the project would take =
two years to build. n
Here are the basic features
Of the Columbia Plaza design: a
Three apartment houses and !.
serpentine structure contain /
ing a CoCal OF SUO unlCS. n
A 400-room hotel designed to >
be a focal point 100 feet high .
in the project area.
A series Of shops under 4,
arcades and other commercial :
space totlaing 10000 square !
feet. .
A circular swimming pool
80 feet in diameter. Y
Mr.. KeyeS said the rents on :
the apartments, ranging in size I
from efficiencies to two-bed- v
room units. probably would ?
start at about 500 a month. :
The whole project takes UP
about 40 per cent Of the total
land area.
