He Helped Shape
The Big Triangle
BY ROBERT ]. LEWIS

Many men in Washington
have been at the vortex Of
history and have helped
guide its course.
One Of them is energetic,
78-year-old Charles Schu-
veldt Dewey, whose grand
father was a law partner Of
Edwin Stanton, Abraham
Lincoln's Secretary of War.
Mr.. Dewey is a vigorous,
quick-moving, rarified Wash
ingtonian who chain-smokes,
paints, has a chateau in
France, speaks several Ian
guages. Among other dis
tinctionS, he is the only hon.
orary director for life of the
Bank of Poland.
His chance to shape the
future of Washington came
just IS years ago.
He had come here in 1924
to be Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury under Andrew
Mellon.
In 1925, Congress passed a
sweeping public buildings act.
1t provided for a huge con-
struction program to change
the face of Washington. In
charge of the work was to
be the Secretary of the
Treasury.
$50 Mr.. Mellon sent for
me-" Mr.. Dewey said today.
"'We've got to do some
thing about this he told me.
"'The whole thing is dumped
In our lap. We've got to be
set up with a plan. Give it
some thought"

ment Land Agency, yesterday
said the objective is to come
up with a combination Of low
cost private and public hous-
ing in the Northwest urban
renewal area bounded by North
Capitol street, Massachusetts,,
New Jersey and New York
avenues.
Under the scheme, urban re-
newal planners would design a
development for 1900 families
400 of them in public hous-
ing. The architecture would be
harmonious and the public
housing would be scattered
throughout the area rather
than restricted to one site.
Concept Endorsed
Francis x. Servaites, director
of the National Capital HouS-
ing Authority, endorsed this
concept of combining private
and public housing, declaring

ton and even a l,500-gallon
water tank, fits into a single

A Civil Defense official said
there are about 1000 emer-
gency hospitals in storage
around the United States. Fed
orally owned units for Wash
ington casualties are in storage
in Upper Marlboro, La Plata,
Leonardtown, Gaithersburg,
Poolesville and Annapolis, Md,
and in Occoquan, Fredericks-
burg and Manassas, Va. The
State of Maryland owns 20
hospitals of its own and stores
them in Sykesville.
Each 200-bed hospital costs
$4,000, but a State can buy
one for $4,000, with the Fed
eral Government matching the
funds. Prototypes of the Civil
Defense units were used by the
Army during the Korean
action.

To Launch
Tunnel Job

District highway officials
have made another attempt to
get the stalled Lincoln Memo
rial tunnel job under way.
The $18 million project, which
includes related highway
improvement work, has been
snagged for months on the ques-
ton Of how it will be financed.
Harold L. Aitken, District
highway director, has told the
Bureau of Public Roads it is
essential that a Federal aid
plan of some type be worked
out.
In a letter to John Hanson,
division engineer of the Bureau
of Public Roads, Mr.. Aitken
listed a number Of Federal fl
nancing possibilities for con-
sideration.
Detailed plans for the traffic
underpass and the related road
jobs were revealed by the
National Park Service last Sep
TENDER. But, because Of the
financing problem, no further
progress has been made.
The tunnel would be part of
the city's inner loop freeway
link between the Fourteenth
Street Bridge area and the ap-
iproach roads to the Theodore
Roosevelt Bridge.

Budget Cuts
HeIdHurmfuI
To Schools

DR.. c. Taylor Whittier. Mont
gomery County superintendent
of schools, declared yesterday
that the county councils cut
in the school budget would Sc
riously hamper some programs
beginning next fall.
According to school board
figures. its 1862 budget request
for S67 million was reduced by
SIS million.
Some of the cuts" Mr..
Whittier said, "were particu-
larly unfortunate, such as those
in our new curriculum and re-
search programs. I expect to
ask for several transfers be-
tween the budget items. which
the board has authority to
grant"
Another school official,
Board President Harold F.
Breimyer, also criticized the
council for secrecy in dealing
with the school budget.
THE county council" he
said, acted on the items bud
geted item by item without
revealing the details to either
the public or the board. When
the board asked for a restora-
ton Of three items in the OPP
Grating budget. small in costs,
but key to its program, the
request was denied"
He suggested that future cuts
should be discussed with the
board and other public groups
in advance Of council action.

Such information then could
be weighed by courts in decid-
ing whether to jail offenders,

The bill, to be introduced by
Senator Hruska, Republican Of
Nebraska, grew from a study
of Federal penitentiaries by the
Senate Judiciary Committee.
Building Program Urged
The penitentiaries subcom-
mittee also urged the Attorney
General to develop a long-range
building program to handle the
increasing number of Federal
prisoners and to help devise a
uniform sentencing procedure
Of Federal courts. The need for
a new Federal mental inStitu-
ton was deemed critical by the
subcommittee.
The Hruska bill would set up

law for those over Is and

this week, are aimed at moving
400 boys at the school into
more adequate quarters.
The Senator found boys
ranging in age from IL to 10
living in a school building very
like a barn. One end Of the
school building was locked off
from use because it had badly
deteriorated through sheer age.

His idea for temporary COM

But the real hope for a
school replacement lay in his
proposal to authorize con-
struction of a new one. 1t would

Senator said, the Federal re-

Transfer Legality In Doubt
Some relief could come By
transferring juveniles out Of the
school, but the constitutionality
of such shifts has been under
a cloud for years.
The law clearly authorizes
transfers. But U. S. Distric

the National Capital Planning
Commission, said the project
will be "WaShington'S first
full-fledged attempt" to build
low-cost husing in an urban
renewal area.
He said the housing probably
would be three and four-story
walkups, with two-bedroom
units renting for about $50 a
month. He said the hope is
to work out cooperative owner
ship so families will have an
equity in their homes.
Mr.. Searles said the RIA in
tends to contract with one firm
to lay out the whole neighbor-
hood, even to submitting SAM
pie designs for the buildings.
The planning commission also
will work on the plan.
Wide Interest Seen
Mr.. Searles said the RIA
has every reason to believe
there would be plenty Of build
ers interested in the project"
He said the RIA for the pri-
vate housing will "try out for
size" such Federal financial
aids as the section 220, 221 and
elderly housing programs. All
these programs make it easier
for the builder to get mortgage
money for his project.
The RIA is roughing out its
plans for the Northwest project
in the belief its application for
Federal urban renewal funds
for this purpose soon will be
approved. The Kennedy Ad-
ministration already is on
record as declaring the Federal
Government should provide
more help for public housing
and for those families caught
in the economic no-man's land
between private and public
housing.
Also, the RIA is under in
creaSing pressure to build some
low and middle income hous-
ing in urban renewal areas. So
far, luxury apartments and
town houses have dominated
the urban renewal redevelop-
ment scene.
