All sides stood firm yesterday
in the international art contro-
versy of the year, which bids
fair to become the art contro-
versy of the decade and even
of the century.
In an atmosphere of charges
and denials of fraud probably
involving several million dollars
of art evaluation, the contro-
versy yesterday took in the
Canadian government, a prom
inent American art collector,
an association of leading New
York art dealers, the Internal
Revenue Service and the Gus
toms Bureau.
The collector is Walter P.
Chrysler, jr., son of the late
automobile manufacturer and
one-time resident of Warren
ton, Va. From his private col
lection, now in Provincetown
Mass, Mr.. Chrysler last sum-
mer exhibited a large show OF
paintings and sculpture under
the title, THE Controversial

President Kennedy confers

A Defense Department
spokesman said today thu
squadron of about IL F-4E
Phantom 2 fighters was or
dered to Key West on October
6. There, they are poised about
80 miles from Cuba.
The action came three days
after Undersecretary of State
George w. Ball told Congress
that eventually Cuba probably
will have Is to 80 of the most
modern Soviet-built jet fighters
which normally carry air-to-

being assembled, plus about SO
older jets.
The Pentagon spokesman re-
lated the buildup of missile
armed United States jets in
Southern Florida to this report
by Mr.. Ball of increasing MIG
strength in Cuba.
The movement of the Phan-
toms from Oceana Naval Air
Station near Norfolk, Va, to
Key West does not herald a
pattern, the spokesman said.
AS far as he knows, he said,
this was the only additional
unit sent to the area to re-
inforce United States forces
facing hostile Cuba. The United
States has powerful air and
fleet elerents based through
out the Caribbean area.

Tunnel Under
Lincoln Shrine
Is Cleared
Garfield Park
Route for Sc.
Freewuy Okuyed
BY CHARLES d. PIERCE
Star staff Writer

Agreement has been reached
between the National Park
Service and the District on
construction of an $18 million
tunnel and expressway under
Lincoln Memorial.
Engineer Commissioner Fred
erick ]. Clarke in announcing
the agreement on the Lincoln
Memorial project, also said yes
terday the Park Service has
now agreed to grant the Dis
trict a permit for construction
of the Southeast freeway
through part of Garfield Park.
Brig. Gen. Clarke said that
details of the Lincoln Memo
rial tunnel and the section of
the Inner Loop between the
Memorial and the Southwest
freeway at the Fourteenth
Street Bridge interchange have
been ironed out.
Work Split
He said that the Park Serv-
ice will build the section of
the freeway from the Lincoln
Memorial to Fifteenth street
and the District will construct
the connection to the Four
tenth Street Bridge inter-
change.
Construction Of this section
Of the freeway between thu
Lincoln Memorial and tn,
Fourteenth street interchang,
is not expected to begin for
year.
Thomas Airis, deputy direc
tor of the District Highway De
partment. said the department
is readying advertising for bid
for construction of a section
of the Southeast Freeway. /
will run from South Capito
street along Virginia avenue
S e. to Sixth street Sc.
Two Year Project
Mr.. Airs said the construc-
ton will take about two years
after the contract is let. Plans
call for this section of the
Southeast Freeway to tie into
a massive interchange at K and
Eleventh streets Sc, but Con-
gress has held up funds for
the interchange.
Granting of the permit for
building the Southeast Free
way through Garfield Park had
been delayed because the Park
Service wanted the Commits
sioners to condemn a block of
homes between Third, Fourth
and G streets and South Caro-
lima avenue Sc, as part OF the
replacement for the section of
Garfield Park needed for the
freeway.
The highway department has
asked for a little over one acre
of the 9.35-acre Garfield Park
which is bounded by New Jer-
sey, Third, Virginia and F Sc.
The District commended that
it could not legally purchase
the block requested by the
Park Service as a replacement
for the Garfield Park land
since the block is outside the
freeway right-of-way.
Gen. Clarke said the Park
Service agreed to use of part
of Garfield Park after the Dis
trict promised to find some le-
gal way of compensating the
Park Service for loss of this
land.

Bray Resigns
UOfD Post

DR.. Dale F. Bray, chairman
of the department of entomology
at the University of Delaware,
has announced the resignation
of DR.. Richard Darsie, Asso-
ciate Professor of entomology.
Darsie has served as liza
ison between University of Del
aware researchers and the State
Mosquito Control Division for
the past IL years.
He has accepted position as
malaria specialist with the A
gency for International Devel-
opment, a branch of the State
Department. Following a IL
week training course in Jamaica
and a six week orientation in
Washington, D. c., Darsie will
leave for a two year assign
ment in Nepal. AS part of his
duties, he will evaluate malaria
eradication programs in pro-
gress there and supply techni-
cal assistance and supervision
to the programs.
Darsie's work at the Uni
versity included testing mos
quitoes for resistance to insec-
ticides and investigating the
toxic effects of insecticides on
fish, wildlife and other marsh
insects. He has also carried
on taxonomic studies of mos
quitoes, and has investigated
parasites ofmany of Delaware's
birds and animals.
According to Bray, Darsie
has made significant contribu-
tions in these areas. He also
conducted studies in the biology
of mosquitoes to determine what
environmental factors influence
their development. From this
research certain natural, or
non-chemical methods of con-
troll were developed such as
impounding of water in salt
marshes. Bray says this has
