to the planning commissions
program.
The Commissioners new
policy opposing long-term
urban renewal controls was
made known in a letter reject
ing a redevelopment plan for
the North Capitol-East renewal
project.
Review Cited
The Commissioners want the
period of enforcement short
ened to coincide with the "ex-
ecution stage" of project.
1T is unfortunate that We
could not obtain the concur
renee of the Board of Com
missioners on this greatly i'm
proved plan. since the document
was reviewed by, and presum-
ably received the approval of,
all appropriate District agen-
cies prior to. planning COM
mission approval" Mr.. Finley
told Mr.. Tobriner in a letter
yesterday.
NCPC was the third agency to
express disappointment over the
Commissioners plan to shorten
the effective period of controls.
The District will be commit
ting a fatal error" if it aban-
Cons controls altogether, Phil A.
Doyle Redevelopment Land
Agency executive director, said
prior to the Commissioners
announcement of their decision.
Last week, officials of the
Urban Renewal Administration
the Federal agency which sup
plies funds for urban renewal
operations, indicated the city's
eligibility for such funds would
be doubtful if enforcement of
standard were not continued
after a project was completed
The Commissioners position
is that once renewal work i.
properly completed, there's nc
need to have District agencies
enforce details spelled out in
urban renewal plans.
In a letter July 81 to Mrs,
James H. Rowe. jr.. chairman
of the planning commission,
Commissioner Tobriner said:
Dual Standards
Although the Commissioners
generally endorse requiring
higher standards for the reha-
bilitation of structures during
project execution, continuation
of such standards beyond this
point would complicate admin
istration and freeze develop
ment of the area for a long
period of time.

Alcoholics Need Help

ONE should not lose sight of the dis
ease which perhaps affects more
Americans than any other. This disease
is alcoholism and it is estimated that
approximately million Americans are
afflicted by it today.
We are not attempting to invade the
social habits, or the personal liberties,
or anyone We are attempting to point
out that alcoholism is disease which
is sometimes not recognized for its
actual qualities, which are often quite
deadly and which sometimes result in
death and destruction Of human life
Experts estimate that it takes many
years before most alcoholics actually
fall victim to the disease. But once they
have succumbed, they become tragic
victims Of a dangerous, and often I'M
recognized disease and usually even
fail, themselves, to appreciate what is
happening to them.
Signs of the threat of alcoholism are
noticeable when one begins to crave a
periodic drink, or regular drinks each
day, or when one becomes nervous with
out drink. Many people are we'll along
the road to alcoholism when they be-
gin drinking i'm the morning and this
should be closely watched
Alcoholism probably causes more
time lost from work, more reckless driv-
ing, more accidental and untimely
deaths, more home accidents and in
jurles, than any other disease. Alco-
holism is increasing in the United
States.
There is help available, if a friend is
able to get the alcoholic to contact re-
liable branch of the Alcoholics Anony-
NOUS. Seek help ~ while there is still

Heat On Conservatives

that they appeal to some people who are
not urged to religious faith by other
means. The evangelists we have known
have been deeply religious men, be-
lieving the Christian principles, but
using different approach. They are
not to be discredited for they reached
many people, hitherto untouched.
We are sure there would be no fright
ists', if there were no "leftists". The
difficulty is to put a tag on the meaning
of cleft" and fright" Both profess to
have the same underlying religious
principles, n amely, the love of God,
and/or salvation through the Savior,
Jesus Christ. The difference appears in
methods and scope. Certainly, neither
cleft" or fright" are atheists, which is
the religion Of the Communists.
To us the Christian religion means
personal salvation through faith and
belief. A. Christian life is governed by
Christian principles. Christianity deals
with the spirit and the soul. Material,
political and social matters are mani
festations of Christianity, and in re-
cent years rather poor manifestations
These problems will be resolved when
true Christian principles, as we under
stand them, are applied. We need not
discredit right or left" if they will

Disarmament Treacherous

plan.
Even if a genuine and ade-
quately controlled reduction in
nuclear and conventional arms
is achieved, there remain the
UNNECESSARILY more difficult-to-
control problems of chemical or
psychological warfare.
1t is conceivable that inspec-
ton systems could be worked
out to monitor the manufacture,
movement, storage, and assem-
bly, of nuclear devices. But
chemical and-or biological ter
rors can be fabricated in count
less Laboratories throughout the
length and breadth of every ma
ton, including the USSR. Inspec-
ton and control over all such
laboratories and their output
would be virtually impossible.
And finally, there is the ques-
ton of whether the American
people are willing to turn the
military forces of the world to
an organization in which the
United States has only one voice
out Of 1O4.
This becomes a more critical
question in light Of the U. S..
proposal that the International
Court of Justice be given COM
pulsory jurisdiction in deciding
international disputes. Here in
effect, would be a repeal Of the
Connally amendment, and the
placing of our national fate in
the hands of countries which
may or may not share the
American sense of international
justice.
Disarmament is a dream
which some day may be rea-
lized. But it must not be allow
