In the first decade of this
century the villages Of Lang
ley and LewinSville merged
into Mclean with the Salona
residence at its center. Nc
Lean has grown rapidly in
recent years and remains one
of the Washington regions
most desirable living areas.
Two of President Kennedy's
Cabinet members, for exam
pie, make their homes in Nc
Lean - Secretary of Interior
Stewart L. Udall and Attor-
ney General Robert F. Ken
nedy.
But the noble work of
President Kennedy apparent
ly is going, to be rendered
meaningless by a dream of
the staff of the Fairfax Coun-
ty Planning Commission. In
fact, the community of Nc
Lean is threatened with ex-
tinction. A member of the
planning commission, ap-
pearing recently before Nc
Lean Citizens Association
meeting, outlined the disturb
ing fate facing Mclean resi-
dents.
The planning staff pro-
poses to obtain l60-foot
rights of way for the entire
lengths of both Chain Bridge
road (Route 1913 from Chain
Bridge to Tysons Corner) and
Old Dominion drive (from
the Arlington County line to
Great Falls. 1t would desig-
nate both roads as primary,
calling for 4-lane divided
highways to be bounded by
strips of ground and service
roads on both sides of both
thoroughfares. Arlington bou-
levard, as it emerges from
Seven Corners into Fairfax
County, was pictured as the
model for Chain Bridge road
and Old Dominion drive.
Such a program, If effected,
would destroy Mclean as it
now exists and ruin plans of

In view of DR.. Dooley's

rifice which led to his recent

Virginia DOdd Good.
I have been encouraged. on
the whole, by President Ken
nedy's first month in office.
However, some of his recent
appointments have been ex-
tremely discouraging.
The President was wise to
name his brother, a proven
and capable investigator, as
Attorney General, but when
he begins to name college
roommates, neighborS at the
beach. and brothers-in-law
to strategic posts, he has
gone beyond the bound of
propriety and good sense.
Sargent Shriver may be a
capable businessman, but I
am sure he is not the best
qualified man in the country
to head the Peace Corps.

The welkin rings with &C.
static hosannas in praise of
the idea of a Peace Corps.
Incredible amounts of yard
age in the press are devoted
to answering every conceiv-
able question concerning this
proposed detachment of par
agons. Just one trifling de-
tail, however, seems to be
overlooked. Exactly what,
may I ask, are the members
of the Peace Corps actually
going to do in those fortu-
nate lands which are to be
uplifted by their presence?
The idea seems to be,
vaguely, that the Peace Corps
will teach the citizens of 9TH
er lands "how to live" Is it
possible that this notion is
seriously entertained? The
average American college or
university graduate is, with
out question, the most igno-
rant, illiterate, and inarticu-
late in the world. Having been
carried along thus far on the
shoulders of his parents,
his knowledge of "how to live"
scarcely includes sense enough
to know when to come in out
of the rain. He is in every
respect an intellectual infant.
I don't know about the citi
zens of other lands, but if
anyone suggested to me that
1 allow one of these half-wit$
to teach me "how to live" I
should consider the sugges-
ton a personal insult.

government in New Jersey
was entitled to spend public
funds to give bus services to
parochial school children.
1t would be wise for the
Congress to put the issue
Squarely up to the court in a
Federal school aid bill, either
an omnibus bill or a separate
measure. What the present
court will decide, no one can
say. The late Chief Justice
Charles Evans Hughes once
commented that the ConSti-
tuition is what the Supreme
Court says it is. And so it
has worked out, as in the
case of the 1854 public school
deSegregation deciSion-
which overturned decisions of
earlier courts.
Question of Best Course
The immediate question is:
Which is the best course for
Congress to pursue-along
with the President-to get
much needed aid to the
schools of this country, out
grown and underStaffed?
Virtually every one agrees
the aid is a real need. Most
of the Democratic leaders on
Capitol Hill now have come
to the conclusion that there
should be two meaSures-one
dealing primarily with the
public schools; the other
with the private schools, in
cluding church schools. There
remains, however, the ques-
tion whether, having put
through the bill for aid to
the public schools, a majority
of the Congress could be pre-
vailed upon to do justice to
the private and church
schools. Admittedly, it is un-
certain. 1t might be decided
by offering an amendment to
the public school bill. Or it
might be decided by present.
ing separate bill.
The National Catholic
Welfare Conference, in a
recent, statement, has said
that if the school aid bill
discriminates against the
children in private schools
providing no aid for them
it has no course except to
oppose the measure. This is
a serious threat, especially
when other possible factors
are considered. For example,
a threat to offer an amend
ment which would deny aid
to any area which has not
desegregated its public
schools. Further, there are
those who do not believe in
granting Federal funds which
may be used to pay teachers
salaries, on the ground that
this would give a Federal
administration control over
what is taught in the public
schools.
Unfortunately for school
aid, political interests also
are involved. There are those
who wish to see President
Kennedy embarrassed, as he
surely would be if school aid
fails at this session Of Con-
greSS, or see him embarrassed
if he should eventually sign
a bill containing aid to paro-
chial and private schools.
The responsibility for set
ting the issues rests squarely
on the shoulders of the Con-
gress. The President has said
he intends to fight for the
administration bill, but that
does not relieve Congress of
its duties and responsibilities.

THE POLITICAL MILL
JFK q Sitting Duck in School Fiqht
By GOULD LINCOLN

President Kennedy is the
sitting duck in this crossfire
over the school aid bill. It
is high time Congress as
Sumed its own responsibilities
when it comes to Federal aid
to Catholic schools, other
church schools and private
schools not run for private
gain. The President, during
the recent political campaign,
was under constant fire from
persons who charged that if
he were elected Chief Execu-
tive he would be under the
thumb of the Catholic
Church. He is in a cruel
position. He knows, presum-
ably, as do others, that there
is real justice in the PROPOSE
ton that the parochial
schools should share in the
Federal funds for more and
better schools and education
for the children of America.
Should he, at the present
time, agree to this really
just contention of Catholic
hierarchy, he would be i'm
mediately labelled by his
earlier critics as a tool of
the church.
Congress is an independ-
ent, separate branch of the
Government and so is the
Judicial branch. The Consti-
tuition places on Congress the
right and responsibility to
legiSlate. The President rec
ommends, but Congress has
the sole authority to initiate
and enact the laws-Subject
to a presidential veto, though
the Congress still has the
power to override such a veto
by a tWo-thrdS vote. There
is every reason why Congress
should tackle this question
of being fair to the church
and private schools in the
distribution of Federal aid.
Either it should do justice
to these schools and the
children who attend them in
an omnibus school bill, or
it should put through a sep
arate bill for public school
aid, and a separate bill for
aid to the church and private
schools.
Solution on Merits
This is not a new question
aid to parochial schools.
1t has been raised in Con-
gress many times during the
last half century, and even
before. 1t is one that should
be tackled and settled on its
merits. For years, the elec-
tion of a Catholic to be
President has been a bone of
contention. For the first time
the American people have
elected a Catholic President
and it is to be hoped that
no citizen of the United
States in the future will be
denied that office because of
his religious beliefs, or his
membership in any particu-
lar church.
President Kennedy has
taken the position that con-
stitutionally the question of
Federal aid to parochial and
private schools is not debat-
able, in opposing such aid in
the administration school
bill. 1t is not at all clear that
this question is not debat-
able, under the Constitution.
And since his original state
ment, President Kennedy ap-
pears to have qualified his
statement. The Suprem e
Court in a decision some
time ago held that a county

was regarded as an error in the

The early church fathers had

Most artists have merely ab-
