Tuberculin Testing
OF School Children
Aids In Eradication

Little Susan. a grade school
student. lined up with her class
mates to get tuberculin test,
a simple skin test which tells
whether or not TB germs have
invaded the body. Susan got her
test. Then two days Later she
lined up again to have the test
read. Susan had a positive re
action, TB germs had entered
her body, although it didn' t
mean that she had active TB.
A chest x-ray and other tests
would determine it.
Susan's x-ray showed that she
didn't have TB. But where had
she picked up the germs?
The next step was to test her
family in the hope of finding
the hidden case Of tuberculosis
spreading the germs.
Susan'S mother, father and
grandmother all had positive tu-
berculin test reactions. X-rays
and other tests showed the faith
er had light case OF active dis
ease; the mother, a moderately
advanced TB. and the grand
mother, a far advanced tuber-
culosis. None Of them knew
they were sick.
All three responded well to
drug treatment and are now at
home and returned to normal
living. They are thankful for the
simple tuberculin test given SUI
san at school which led to the
discovery If the disease before
it was too late for a cure.
In some communities. tubercu-
lin testing of school children is
an important part Of the drive
to eradicate TB in this country
# your child brings home a con.
sent card for a tuberculin test
sign it. It can't do any harm
and it may turn out to be 3
lifesaver.

thrown from Federal financing
to District financing. he said.
Harold Aitken, District high
way director, suggested a
compromise.
The Senator's might insert
language in their appropria-
tons bill to have the District
wait until November before
proceeding with the Three Sis
tiers bridge. If the transit
program does not conflict with
the bridge, then the District
could be permitted to proceed.
he said.
Senator Case, Republican of
New Jersey, asked Mr.. Whitton
whether interstate funds could
be used for rapid transit rights
of-way in the middle Of high
ways. Mr.. Whitton said that it
could not. Rapid transit COM
panies should pay for their
own rights-of-way, he said.
The National Capital Trans
portation Agency's request for
poStponements will have wide
spread effects on the Districts
program, Mr.. Aitken explained.
The District is now 20 per cent
behind in its schedule, and the
Transportation Agency's post
ponements would cause much
unemployment in the construc-
ton industry in 1865, he said.

Star staff Writer

The Senate District Appro-
priations subcommittee wa S
asked yesterday to clarity the
intent of Congress on whether
highway construction should be
postponed for transit planning.
Engineer Commissioner Fred
erick j. Clarke told Senator
MCGEE, Democrat of Wyoming,
that statements by different
Congressional groups have left
the District highway program
in confusion.
General Clarke asked the
Senators to approve the $780,
900 appropriation for the Three
Sisters bridge which was grant
ed by the House Appropriations
Committee. A House District
subcommittee. headed by Rep
reSentative Whitener, Demo-
crat Of North Carolina, has
asked for the project to be
postponed until Congress acts
on a transit development pro-
gram next January.
IF the committee turns the
bridge down, then we will know
the intent of Congress-" Gen.
nraI Clarke said
Senator MCGEE asked whe-
Their a delay of a few months
while the transit program is
developed would seriously hurt
the highway program.
General Clarke said that the
delay would be much moNa
than a few months. The delay
will stretch to three to five
years, he said.
Depends on District
Commissioner Walter N. To-
briner told the subcommittee
that the Commissioners were
united in agreeing that the Dis
trict should not heed requests
for poStponements because
rapid transit planners are COM
plotting transit development
programs.
He said that he and Com
missioner Duncan favored post
ponement of three highway
projects only because of the re-

location problem and because
an alternate route was possible.
Rex Whitton, administrator
of the Federal Bureau Of Pub
lie Roads, made a surprise ap-
pearance before the committee.
Mr.. Whitton said that the bu-
reau would review the Districts
interstate system for a cost
estimate for Congress in 1866.
If the tortuous District plan
ming process has resulted in
any key elements being blocked,
the projects will have to be
taken from the interstate sys-
tenn, he said. The system calls
for matching nine Federal dol
lars for each District dollar.
After his appearance, Mr..
Whitton explained that Federal
funds could not be used for
spur lines. The interstate prof.
ects already approved for the
District will have to connect to
another interstate route to
qualify for the large Federal
subsidy.
Interstate projects in the
-
District would be able to quail
ify for the 90-10 system if the
Southwest Freeway was con-
nected to the AnacoStia Free
way. However, the entire in
terState financing program,
about 500 million, is in con-
fusion because of the National
Park Services withdrawal from
the Three Sisters project, Mr..
Whitton said.
General Clarke said the bu-
reau and the District have
been trying to talk the Park
Service into reconsidering its
refusal to allow an interstate
route in Spout Run Park.
Compromise Suggested
The Spout Run and Three
Sisters route is part of a pack
age compromise to keep traffic
away from the Lincoln Me-
mortal, General Clarke said. If
Three Sisters is dropped, then
financing for the $16.2 million
Theodore Roosevelt Bridge is

fat accompli, part of a bridge
which will have to be finished.
ITO get 80 per cent Federal
financing for the Potomac
Freeway it wants to build, the
District has got to connect it
to an Interstate system which
accommodates trucks. So it
proposes to link it to a new
bridge and then spoil our resi-
Dental areas by ramming
heavy truck traffic through.
This is expedfency rather than
planning. It is a thinly yelled
attempt to bail the District out
of paying for the Potomac
Freeway."
Seeks Balanced System
Arlington advocates tina t
nothing be done regarding the
Three Sisters Bridge until the
transportation agency this fall
presents recommendations for
a balanced transit system for
the whole Washington area.
Mr.. Richards said that if the
agency concludes that the
bridge is necessary. Arlington
will accept the fact that the
Spout Run Parkway will have
to serve as the Virginia egress
from it.
But we still will fight to
keep trucks off the parkway.
If District highway officials
think they have problems try
ing to jam a road through
er-Archibald Park, just
wait until they run into the
buzz-saw we will turn loose
over here. We intend to fight
for every inch of our park
lands" he warned.

WESTMINSTER

WESTMINSTER. Nd. Aug.
II (AP). - The police out
numbered the pickets today
when fntegrationists launched q
drive against segregated res
taurant service.
Forty-seven State troopers
and seven city policemen kept
a close watch on the dozen or
so restaurants in this town. the
seat Of Carroll County, and
home at Western Maryland
College.
None of the 18 demonstrators
was arrested, but two hecklers
were picked up by police.
A segregationist group, known
as the Fighting American Ma
tionals, also picketed. Its actiV-
tiles also were peaceful.
The integrationists, working
in six-member teams, sought
and were offered service at sew
eral previously segregated res
taurants. In some Of the eating
places. however, they left after
the treSpass law was read to
them, and then picketed the
establishments briefly.
The Segregationists were
members of the Baltimore
chapter of the Congress of
Racial Equality.
In Cambridge, meanwhile, Is
to 20 pickets, mostly Negroes,
picketed the Airpax Electronics
Co., the Eastern Shore Public
Service Co.. the Chesapeake &
Potomac Telephone Co., and a
market, the Colonial store.
They carried sign charging dis
criminatory employment prac-
tees.

Coost Guard Sailing ShipDue Today;
Kennedy to Visit Cadets Wednesday

A sailing ship of the type
which cruised the sealanes
more than 100 years ago will
dock at the Navy Yard this
afternoon for a three-day visit
to Washington.
The vessel is the Coast
Guard training bark Eagle,
Americas only full-sized
squarerigger. and one of the
few such ships in the world.
The l,816-ton Eagle will be
berthed at Pier 2 in the Navy
Yard where citizens may visit
her between 100 and 6 pm.
Wednesday. She was expected
to arrive at about 3 pm. today.
President Kennedy will visit
the Eagle Wednesday morning
when 100 of the $50 Coast
Guard cadets aboard will man
the lofty yards of the sailing
ship in a colorful ceremony
honoring the President. He will
inspect the vessel after ad-
dressing the cadets.
The Eagle is en- route to her
home port at New London,
Conn. from European train
ing cruise. This will be the first
time she has visited here and
the first time President Ken
nedy has been aboard. The last
Presidential visit to the ship
was by former President Tru-
man in 1852 in New London.
The Eagles schedule calls
for her to depart from Wash
ington Thursday and sail to
Yorktown. Va. where she will
be tied up opposite the USS
Savannah, an atomic-powered
ship.
The Coast Guard acquired
the Eagle from Germany in
1916. Known as the Horst
Vessel under the German flag,
the ship was built by the Ger
man Navy in 1886 as a training
vessel to accommodate 900
cadets. 1t was operated as a
school ship until the early part
Of World War II. During the
war. she was chiefly used in
the Baltic, transferring supplies
and passengers between East
PruSsian ports and Germany
proper.
Her masts support 1880
square feet of sail. She is
equipped with a TAO horse
power auxiliary Diesel engine
for use in emergency. Her
speed is 10 knots.

The District of Columbia was
accused yesterday of plotting
to spoil fine residential areas
of Arlington so it can get Fed
eral highway funds for itself.
Thomas Richards, vice-chair-
man of the Arlington County
Board, also charged that Dis
trict highway officials are try
ing to hoodwink Congress into
making sure the Three Sisters
Island Bridge is built whether
it is needed or not.
He said there are indications
that the November report of
the National Capital Trans
portation Agency will show
that the metropolitan area can
do very well without the pro-
posed span across the Potomac.
Arlington is concerned be-
cause present plans provide for
construction of a truck route
from the bridge through the
Spout Run Parkway which il
bordered by some of the
county'S most attractive homes
The District this week will
continue efforts to persuade a
Senate subcommittee to ap-
prove another 100000 alloca-
ton for the bridge.
Charges "Ruse"
The District has had $780,
900 IN planning money for a
full year and hasn't touched
a cent of it" Mr.. Richards said.
This latest request for another
is a ruse whereby it
hopes to begin the elementary
phases Of construction before
the transportation report is re-
leased. Then it can confront
Congress and Virginia with a
