Project Involves

District officials have decid-
ed it would be too expensive
to eliminate a 90 foot highway
hump over the railroad tracks
to improve the appearance Of
the proposed Tenth Street Mall.
1t would involve q tunnel for
the Pennsylvania tracks, the
cost of which would be tex
brilliantly high" the Commis-
sioners said in o letter to the
Redevelopment Land Agency.
1t was reported that it would
cost 100000 Just for q study
on how much it would cost to
relocate the electrical lines and
equipment.
When the design for the mall
was revealed last month, mem
bers of the Federal Fine Arts
Commission praised the over
all plan but were critical Of
the highway hump.
Later, Redevelopment Land
Agency officials asked the
Commissioners to seek money
from Congress to tunnel the
tracks at the new mall, which
| is to run between 1ndepend-
ence avenue and the new Maine
avenue S.W. John r. Searles,
jr., executive director Of the
RIA, suggested that the Com
misSioners and his agency make
a joint appearance to request
the money.
A preliminary cost study,
however, showed that the bill
for the project would be too
high. In the letter to RIA, the
Commissioners said:
Although the Commission
ers agree that dropping the
tracks to eliminate the hump
at the Mall would improve the
appearance, our preliminary in
vestigation reveals that the cost
would be exorbitantly high"

ulationS and report back to
him.
A Government attorney in
the General Accounting Office,
in answer to a query, reported
that the rule is based on the
theory a Government witness
is acting IN his official ca
pacity" in teStifying, while a
defense witness goes to court
as a private party"
Time Loss Cited
Mr.. McGrath said that even
when a Government custodian
of records is asked to testify
in his official capacity on be-
half of a defendant, he loses
leave time.
The ruling works a hardship
in Juvenile Court, since a law
prohibits all witness fees. This
means witnesses lose leave and
get no compensation.
The rule also applies in Mu-
nicipal Court, where defense
witnesses lose leave time and
are paid only on the ability of
the defendant. If the defendant
is a pauper, under law the
witness would be paid rs cents
a day under a 1901 rule.
All witnesses fare better in
District Court. They are paid
81 a day plus mileage costs.
