In Montgomery
BY GRACE BA,SSETT
star staff Writer

Representative Matthias, Re-
publican Of Maryland, today
urged . House appropriations
subcommittee to grant $500 900
IN Federal funds to help buy
827 acres Of parkland in Mont
gomery County.
The money would cover one
third Of the cost of stream
valley acquisitions Of Rock
Greek, Cabin John Creek and
Northwest Branch. The Mary
land National Capital Park and
Planning Commission would
put up $1.2 million.
The Congressman went be-
fore the executive session be-
cause House budget makers in
recent Congresses have cut
back drastically the Capper-
Cramton funding program,
under which the $500, 900 would
be appropriated.
Enlightened Formula"
"As a lifelong neighbor of
the. National Capital Area, II
became familiar with the
Capper-Cramton Act, which is
famous throughout the country
as an enlightened formula Of
regional cooperation toward
building what is really a metro
politan park system enjoyed by
visitors from all sections of
the United States" Mr.. Matthias
testified.
He stressed the pressing need
for parks and open spaces In
areas Of urban concentration
and suburban growth. The ma
tion has awakened to the need
for solutions to these problems
in an era Of population ex-
plosion, he maintained.
He also bore down on the
responsibility Of the Federal
Government to share costs here
because Of its dominance m
employment and real estate
holdings.
Contribute TwO-thirdS
More than SO per cent Of the
city'S Federal employees now |
live in the suburbs where the |
open space is being sought, he |
reminded committeeman. Yet
he noted that local agencies
develop and maintain the parks
after contributing two-thirds of
the initial acquisition price.
1T is my opinion that it Is
false economy to abandon this
program at a time when 1t is
only so per cent complete and
when the remainder is being
seriously threatened by SUBJ
division encroachment," Mr..
Matthias said.
The program, started in the
1930s, envisions broad strips Of
parkland on either side Of the
Potomac and its branches be-
tween Mount Vernon and Great

Broader School Bill
Church View
Is Reiterated
BySpeIImon
By DAVID S. BRODER
Star Staff Writer

star STAFF Writer
The Kennedy administration
told Congress today it is lab
solutely opposed" to broadening
its aid-to-education bill to in
clude private and parochial
schools.
At the same time Francis
Cardinal Spellman today reit-
Grated his opposition to any
Federal aid to education pro-
gram which excludes private
and church-related schools.
II am still opposed to any
program Of Federal aid that
would penalize a multitude, of
Americas children because
their parents choose to exer-
else their constitutional rights
to educate them in accordance
with their beliefs" he said in a
statement in New York.
A formal request today for
the House Education Subcom-
mittee to hear a representative
Of Cardinal Spellman testify
on the education bill was made
today by Representative Ze-
lenko, Democrat of New York.
Permission Expected
Mr.. zelenko wrote the sub
committee that Cardinal Spell
man had asked him last Sat-
urday to arrange for Lawrence
Cusack to testify as his repre-
sentative.
Subcommittee Chairman
Bailey, Democrat of West Vir-
ginia. said the request will be
considered in an executive ses-
sion of the subcommittee.
Others on the subcommittee in
dicated there was little doubt
the Cardinals representative
will be granted a hearing.
Secretary of Health, Educa-
ton and Welfare Ribicoff, ap-
pearing before the House sub
committee, said it would be
tragic to have the proposal for
grants to public schools bur-
dened with the controversy over
the constitutionality of paro-
chial school aid.
The church-state issue was
brought into the first House
hearing of the year on educa-
ton by Representative Ere
linghuysen, Republican of New
Jersey. He asked Mr.. Ribicoff
for the administrations stand
on broadening the bill to in
clude aid to non-public schools.
I'VE are absolutely opposed
to that" the Secretary replied.
I'm any form?" Mr.. Freling-
huySen asked.
Eyes. sir" Mr.. Ribicoff said.
Legal Opinion Awaited
The Secretary added that he
hoped to have a legal opinion
from his staff sometimes this
week on the constitutionality Of
long-term, low-interest loans to
private schools. Such loans are
being sought by Catholic
church leaders.
Cardinal Spellman, Arch
bishop Of the Roman Catholic
Archdiocese Of New York, in his
statement today, said:
1T Is not for me to say
whether there should be any
Federal aid to education. That
is a political and economic mat
ter to be decided by the Con-
gresS However. if the Con-
greSs decides there should be
Federal aid, then certainly any
legislation should conform to
the principles of social justice,
equal treatment and nondis-
elimination"
He said President Kennedy
is to be commended for his
interest in education and for
proposing a program of Federal
aid in the field of higher edu-
cation that is fair and equitable
to all students, all colleges and
all universities, the Associated
Press reported.
However, the Cardinal said,

Small Powers
Push u. n. for
Showdown
Trying to Learn
lfU. S. and Soviet
Can Fix Aqendo

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Mar. 13 (AP).-A showdown is
expected today or tomorrow on
whether the current session OF
the United Nations General As
sembly is going to be short and
sweet or long and bitter.
Some smaller-power delega-
tionS planned consultations
aimed at bringing out once and
for all whether the Soviet Un-
ion and the United States can
agree on what should be on the
agenda.
The prospect is that the 81
nation Steering Committee of
the 99-nation Assembly would
meet Wednesday or Thursday
to fix a closing date for the
session. which resumed last
Tuesday. There was talk of
closing on April 81 and leaving
all unfinished business over to
the 1861 regular session, which
starts September 10.
Neither the Steering Commit
tee, the Political Committee nor
the Special Political Committee
has met yet because delegates
have been waiting to see
whether the Americans and
the Russians could reach an
agreement.
80 Items Left Over
The agenda contains 80 items
left over from the first part OF
the current session. These in
clude such controversial issues
as Korean unification, U. N
membership for Mauritania and
Outer Mongolia and racial
troubles in South Africa.
The Americans want to put
OF until next fall all items ex-
cept disarmament, the Congo
Palestine refugee relief and
trusteeship and budgetary mat
ters-with the avowed aim of
easing the cold war and smooth
ing the way for East-West
negotiations.
Because the new Kennedy
administration has not yet for
mulated its disarmament policy,
they want to limit the disarma-
ment debate to the questions of
which countries should take
part in new arms talks and
when and where they should
begin.
The Russians in principle
want discussion of everything
on the agenda except Hungary,
Tibet and their own complaint
against United States recon-
naissance flights over or near
soviet territory.
Disarmament Principles
They have demanded that
the Assembly lay down basic
principles for a disarmament
treaty. But they have let it be
known that If they can agree
with the Americans and Brit
ish on the makeup Of q new
arms negotiating group and
the time and place for the ne
gotiations. they will drop their
demand for an Assembly deci-
sion on treaty principles.
They have asked the United
States to say when 1t will be
ready for new disarmament
talks-and have made it plain
that they want a date before
the Assembly's fall session.
There had been some hope
that progress toward agree.

gates who lunched with For
eign Minister Andrei A. Gro
myko Saturday-and presuma-
bly, were briefed on the Khru-
shehev-Thompson talk - said
afterward they still want the
Assembly to lay down disarma-
ment principles. Apparently
that also was still the Soviet
position.

proposed new charter? CD Sc
lection of nine candidates as
members of Charter Commits
sion.
What are the advantages in being
a home-rule charter city as against
the present general law city? The
answer is obvious. Only by grass
roots control of your local gov
eminent can you, as citizen, be
properly represented.
AS a recent case in point. the
local airlines operators recently
suggested to the City that &c per
gallon aviation gasoline tax be
levied for the purpose of maintain
ing and improving the local air
port In the absence of specific au-
tnorlty by state law, however. the
CITY could not legally collect such
a tax, even though those affected
were in favor. Under a home-rule
charter this could have been eff
fected.
Many cases of a similar nature
frequently arise, particularly as re-
CARDS special assessments against
those people specially benefited
by a certain public facility. In gen.
eral, this lack of authority tends
to distribute the burden of cost to
every taxpayer, whether benefited
or not, which may become quite
unfair in some instances.
Only by the exercise of your
constitutionally given right can you
do the things you want to do the
way you want to do them. Only by
the adoption of a home-rule char
ter, approved by you and contain
ing the things you want, can you
throw off the restrictive yoke of
government by remote control and
place 1t in the hands of your
elected local representatives where
it belongs.
