The old warrants have since
turned up in the files at South

Vinson was released last Febru-
airy, however York County
court officials had misplaced
a record Of the outstanding
warrants and notified the hos

pending. Vinson was therefore
returned to the Jurisdiction of
the Fairfax County Juvenile

He was an out-patient at the

Declaring that construction

Board yesterday rejected pleas
that 1t make a massive attempt
to obstruct the expressway.
Chairman Ernest wit told
angrily complaining citizens
that the only practical policy
remaining to Arlington is nego-

the highway will cause.
Board Member Ralph Kaul
noted that the board always
has fought to keep Route Sc
entirely out of Arlington but
that it has been unsuccessful.
He said that a sudden, last
minute blast against the high
way would be ''highly irrespon-

it would jeopardize chances of
persuading the State to make
changes which will save homes.

Virginia authorities yester-

Another suspect in the Au-

D. c. Transit System, Inc,

that the former should be

What transforms q change In

Public Utilities Commission. It
has since surrendered jurisdic-
ton over D. c. Transit's affairs
to the new area commission.
Mr.. Ison's statement came in
response to a query about the
status Of the commitment. It
was learned from James H.
Flanagan, a vice president and
controller Of D. c. Tranist, that
the company has no plans to
buy any new buses this year or
next beyond the rs due to be
delivered in October. These
have nothing to do with the
200-bus commitment. They are
part Of the 165 buses the area
commission has required the
company to buy to replace
abandoned streetcar service.
Mr.. Ison said that the COM
missions policy for all bus COM
panies in the area Is to encour-
age them to acquire enough
air. conditioned equipment to
provide all air-conditioned
buses for the base" schedules.
These are runs which operate
all day and at night.

ira non-air-conditioned buses
are utilized, this would pro-
vide about one air-conditioned
bus out Of four in service, ac-
cording to Charles w. Over
house, chief engineer at the
commission.
HWe frankly feel this policy
Is consistent with keeping the
fare as low as possible" Mr..
Ison said.
The District commission in
granting D. c. Transit q fare
increase in March, 1850, said
that it was conditioning the
granting of O more favorable

relieve the company Of its priol
commitment to buy the zoe
buses. It did leave open the
question Of when the 200 buses
should be acquired. It said the
les buses would have to be on
hand prior to conversion.
A few days later, the COM
pany moved unsuccessfully to
withdraw its petition before the
District body. The company
then petitioned the new area
commission to handle the con-
version problems. In July, the
District commission agreed to
transfer the conversion matter
to the new area commission.
The latter allowed the COM
pany to delay the full acquisi-
ton of the 165 buses to the
end Of 1862. but said 1t was
studying the question of re-
placing the older buses.

ever had to face up to any

Old men with long boards

entire city, it seems, swerv-

wheels, narrowly missing
dozens Of walkers in the
course of a five-minute ride.
If there is a speed limit here,
it Is a well-kept secret. Yet
people tell you Paris drivers
are outdone elsewhere in Eu-

changed is the postwar pace.

roar Of traffic pounds and
snorts and huns, and the

not correct.
For here you begin to sus-

the pace. The Americans, in
contrast, seem quiet, sub
dued and a bit awed by the
bumper-to-bumper flood Of
cars which have leaped from
the Pandora's Box first
opened in Detroit.
PARIS HAS changed below
ground, too, not just in the
streets.
Walk down the steps into
any of the Metro stations
and the posters will show
you this. Gone are the bleak
