HighDan
At Seneca
Hearing Set

County residents and others
In the suburban Washington
area will get chance to have
their say on the proposed loca-
ton of an S4-foot high dam at
Seneca at a public hearing
June 1.
The hearing, to be held at 8
pm. in the Departmental Audi
torium, Constitution ave. and
18th st. NV, in Washington,
has been called by the Army
Corps of Engineers which is
proposing the Seneca dam as
one of nine to handle future
flood control and water needs
in the Potomac River Basin.
Opposition to the Seneca site
has been almost as strong in
some quarters as it was to an
original Corps of Engineers
suggestion that the high dam
be built just four miles down.
stream, at River Bend.
Both Virginia's Sen. Harry F.
Byrd and Maryland's Sixth Dis
trict Congressman Charles McC.
Matthias came out strongly
against the Seneca location this
week.
Byrd expressed general oppo-
to dams anywhere in this area,
adding he felt building them on
high. ground above Harpers
Ferry, w. Va, would provide
enough water to meet the
Washington areas needs.
Matthias indicated he would
ask Secretary of the Interior
Stewart L. Udall for a full re.
view of the Seneca site pro-
posal.
A spokesman for the National
Rural Electrical Cooperative
has also criticized selection of
the Seneca location over River
Bend, but conceded that having
it at Seneca is preferable to hav-
ing no high dam in the Wash
ington area at all.
One of the strongest individ-
ual protests came from Gilbert
Guide, Republican candidate for
the State Senate. Guide said:
"The Army Engineers offer
OF a substitute proposal of a
high level dam at Seneca, rather
than at River Bend, is, in short,
an offer to trade a few miles of
the C&O Canal and some acre
age of land for what still con-
stitutes an inferior solution to
the multiple problems of the
Potomac River BASIN"
The proposed reservoir at
Seneca is the largest in the
Corps of Engineers plan and
would contain about a half of
the total storage in the nine
dams.
1t would flood $50 acres of
land in Montgomery County,
completely inundate the town
of Seneca and extend 81 miles
northwest to Brunswick, Md.

On Renewal
Plan OK'd

A Chicago firm was hired
Tuesday by the Rockville
City Council to launch a
major study that will help
mould the shape of the city's
urban renewal program.
Real Estate Research Corp,
of Chicago, will study, analyze
and interpret the competitive
retail forces in the Washington
area and recommend the role
Rockville business should play
in the District area market
place.
Out of the $500 study is ex-
pected to come decision on what
kind of business should be en-
couraged to set up shop in the
proposed seven.block urban re-
newal area in the heart of Rock
vile. The study is expected to
take 80 days.
The area Is bounded by Jef-
fersOn ST., Hungerford dr.,
Middle la, a short section of
N. Washington ST., and q
small section of East Mont
gomery ave. The deprecated
section Of East Montgomery
from Perry st. to Park ave. Is
included In the area to be re-
built.
The firm will make recon-
mendations concerning type and
character of the redevelopment
use or uses for which land Is
best suited.
In addition, subsoil conditions,
retail establishments, office and
commercial space will be scruti-
nized and recommendations for
the best use under Rockville's
IndSler pan.
The study will be sufficiently
detailed to include recommend
ed rentals, parking areas and
will identify types of retail
establishments by product.
Under the city renewal
schedule the study contracted
for Monday will play an Inn
pOrtant role. After IL Is COM
pIeted, a preliminary plan
will be formulated and public
hearings will be held.
Under the present timetable,
actual land acquisition and raz-
ing of buildings will not begin
for about II months.

Park Area

Rockville will add 81.8 acres
to its park and recreation areas
if its application to purchase
four areas in the city is ap-
proved by the Federal Govern
ment.
Twenty per cent of the cost
of acquisition will be borne by
the government. The four areas
span the city, from Avery rd.
in the area of the Civic Center
to the interchange at Routes %
and 70.
Areas near Woodley Gardens
and West Rockville Elementary
School are included. Tennis
courts, baseball diamonds and
other kinds of playing fields
are planned. One area now had
an artificial pond which will oe
part of the recreational facility.
The Mayor and Council Mon
day overrode objections by
Rockville Little Theatre and ex-
pressed willingness to permit
the American Repertory Thea
tire to use the Civic Center Au-
ditorium from July 8 to August
18 for the production six plays
by a professional group.
Final objections to the use of
the auditorium because of wear
and tear on the theatrical equip
ment and the method and
amount of payment were re-
moved after Herb Rogers, rep
resenting the American Roper
tory Theatre, offered to replace
any equipment broken or worn
out during the season.
Rental was agreed on at IL

todial charges), which ever was
greater. Leighton Dudley, of
the Civic Center Commission,
expressed willingness to let the
auditorium to the group during
the two months of the year
when it is least used, July and
August.
Other commitments for the
use of the facility, few in num-
Der, have been held in allegiance
pending this decision. The rep
ertory group expects to produce
Street Car Named Desire" and
"Antigone" among others. One
play will be a hitherto unpro-
duced one. Actual signing OF
the contract now rests on the
advice of the city's legal staff
who are studying the articles of
Incorporation and spelling out
specific details.
Charles Prettyman, appearing
for a developer. petitioned the
Mayor and Council to recon

map for the Anderson Tract,
annexed by the city several
weeks ago. The 400-acre tract,
adjacent to the Board of Educa-
ton property at North Wash

a site for the Montgomery Jun
ior College.
Prettyman asked for a six
months extension pending a
study and submission of Zon.

city. He received the assurance
of the city that the usual one
year wait for reconsideration
of a request for rezoning would
not apply in this case since
Rockville was the petitioner for
the zoning map originally.

ticipate on a voluntary basis
in whatever efforts the Nation
al Mediation Board may wish
to make to settle the strike.
But we do not thereby waive
our right to strike and cannot
be legally compelled to do so. !"
The TWA settlement, agreed on
Thursday morning after round
the-clock negotiation sessions
here with Secretary Goldberg,
was received with expressions
of complete disapproval by
union officials at Pan Ameri-
can and Eastern. In addition,
it threatened to blow up for
TWA as well. Two of the TWA
negotiators, Harry O'Brien and
Joe SuSkiewich, sent kilograms
to all eight TWA union coun-
ellis calling the settlement a
complete sellout."
The agreement, a result of
Government proposals minutes
before an earlier strike dead
line Tuesday, had appeared to
settle the main question.
The heart Of the dispute has
been how to reduce the four
man cockpit crews of jet liners
three pilots and an en-
gineer-to three men. Two
would be pilots and the third
seat is in dispute.
VIII Vote on Formula
The TWA formula, which is
to be voted on by the company's
engineers within q week or 10
days, gives the engineers pref
erence for the third seat after
pilot training supplied by the
line.
But the pact also proposed q
procedure looking toward even
tual merger Of the 5000 organ
lied engineers with the power
fun l4.000-member Air Line
Pilots Association. This became
the principal objection of the
Eastern and Pan American en-
gineers. They. like most of the
smaller unions membership,
fear for their future If they are
NEEDED with the pilots, who
would outnumber them nearly
three to one.
The TWA pact also would
end a requirement that a flight
engineer must possess a me-
chanic's license. The engineers
want to keep this requirement.

Relates Incidents
Mrs. MCGUIRE told the jury
that Martin, 26, of the 1400
block of Saratoga avenue NE,
had moved to a hotel when he
was 16 or II after their mother
discontinued housekeeping.
The sister said she had tried
to keep in touch with Martin.
In her testimony, she related
a number of incidents that she
considered represented strange
and unusual behavior by her
brother.
Mrs. MCGUIRE said that Mar
tin. as a teen-ager, used to tell
her a fortune-teller had pre-
dicted he would be run over by
a car at 81. She said he used to
tease her about it.
Martin was not hit by a car
his sister testified, but he was
shot when he was 81. After
ward, she said. Martin, who
had been withdrawn" be-
came even more so.

Senator Mansfield predicted
that If the controversy were
voted on, each branch would

I'm so doing, however, we
would each have placed the

Presidents
Statement
On Strike

This is the teIt of PreSi-
! dent Kennedy'S statement on
the flight engineers strike.
The statement tDdS issued at
the White House Press office
fire hours after the l0alkout
began.
The TWA settlement demon
strates that the strikes on East
ern and Pan American airlines
are unnecessary. The course
was plainly open to all flight
engineer chapters for a sensible
and equitable resolution of the
issues in dispute. The good Of
fices Of the Government were
and are fully available. as they
were in the TWA dispute, tc
assist in such a resolution. Such
a proffer was made last night
by the National Mediation
Board. 1t is most regrettable
that this offer was spurned by
the flight engineers.
The way is still open for a
sensible solution without the in
jury, both to the parties and
the public, inherent in the pres
.ent course Of action. To persist
in the strike course would be
the height of responsibility on
the part Of the Flight Engineers
International Association and
on the part Of the Eastern and
Pan American chapters. 1t is a
course clearly destructive to the
best interests Of the member
ship of the Flight Engineers In
ternational Association.
Good judgment and even a
concern for the pub
lie interest require prompt ter
Of the strikes, so that
collective bargaining
and effective mediation can re-
suit in an equitable solution, as
was provided in the TWA agree
ment,
I hope that good sense will
prevail even at this late hour.
F, 1t goes without saying that
all court orders issued in con-
aection with this dispute must
be obeyed,
