WeIder's Spark
Sets Shop Afire

Fire yesterday damaged an
automobile and the roof of the
BIB Welding Co., Inc, on Lee
highway near Merrifield in
Fairfax County.
Fire officials said the fire
apparently broke out when a
welder's spark touched off gas
oline fumes in the shop. The
fire damaged the rear of a
sports car, and melted tar on
the roof of the shop.
Frank Burkholder, 43, owner
of the firm, was given first aid
for minor burns on his hands
and face, suffered when he
tried to put out the fire.
Mr.. Burkholder yesterday
said damage, including the car,
would total about $4,000, coy

Despite the unanimity of

He accused Congress and Mr..
Broyhill of responsibility for

ing that they should have got

Noting that the Government

mortal Parkway, Mr.. Kaul said,

tween carrying commuters on

Mr.. Brown retorted:
Il don't see any point in
making meaningless speeches.
If the Federal Government pays
95 per cent of the cost I don't
see how it is abdicating its re-
sponSibilities. The proposal is
feasible and we can get legis-
lation this session. The traffic
is piling up and this may be a
way of breaking the log jam. "

The Arlington County Board
yesterday declared it is unal-
terably opposed to a new six
lane thoroughfare which the
State is proposing as a supple
ment to Shirley highway.
II don't want these wizards
sitting around and dreaming up
300 or 500 foot corridors when
there is no place to put them, u
said member Herbert Brown.
While urging that efforts to
develop a new corridor through

board appealed to the State to

self with the Bureau of Public
Roads and Representative Broy-
hill in their highway dispute
with Virginia.
Fenwick'S View
The mounting controversy
further was intensified as State
Senator Charles Fenwick issued
a statement questioning the
feasibility of expanding the
four-lane route without con-
structing another paralleling
thoroughfare.
Virginia highway officials
have stated that in their opin-
ion to add two lanes to the ex-
isting Shirley highway from
Route z to the District would
in certain areas reduce the four
lanes to two during construc-
ton, creating a traffic bottle
neck" Mr.. Fenwick said.
For this res SON Virginia
would prefer the construction
OF the additional route so that
traffic could be handled before
adding the two lanes to Shirley
with its construction bottle
neck. Can the citizens of
Northern Virginia afford to
have Shirley highway ajacent
to che mixing bowls reduced
from four to two lanes during
construction"
A bill which Mr.. Broyhill now
is sponsoring in Congress would
authorize the Federal Govern
ment to pay 95 per cent of the
cost of adding two or more
lanes to Shirley between the
Pentagon and Route 7 provided
that Virginia agrees to assume
responsibility for this section of
the overcrowded highway.
