Capitol Hill Delegation
Protests Freewoy Plan

A citizens delegation from
Capitol Hill today asked Com
missioner Walter N. Tobriner
to take a stand against q free
way along Eleventh street Sc.
They asked him to launch a
detailed study Of merits of
locating the freeway along the
west bank of the Anacostia
River. This freeway will be the
East Leg of the Inner Loop.
Paul Beatley, president Of the
Capitol Hill Community Coun-
Gil, headed the delegation. Also
present were E. Fulton Bry-
lawski, and Peter Glickert, CO.
chairman of the East Washing
ton Committee for Transporta-
ton Coordination.
A main objection to the river
route had been that it would
take parkland. but there is no
real parkland there, Mr.. To-
briner was told. The citizens
said this route would be far less
costly than the Eleventh street
it could be constructed
sooner and quicker, and would
not diSplace families as the
Eleventh street route would do.
Mr.. Beatley said that al
though it has been stated that
it would take five years to re-
locate the highway along the
river route, six months is more
like it. A river route, he said,
would provide q beautiful river
side drive, not a "20-foot deep
ditch through the middle OF
town."
Concerning relocation of dis
placed low-income IA miles
along the Eleventh street route
Mr.. Glickert contended, "it's
not fair to push these people
around even If they are going
to be provided with gloriou;
public housing. It's not neces.
sary. It could be avoided"
Mr.. Tobriner told the mer
their arguments were "weighty,
but they were directed to the
wrong place. The matter is nov

priations subcommittee, he said

By PAUL HOPE

Maryland's new reapportion-
ment bill not only will give
metropolitan areas more repre-
sentation IN the General As
sembly, but will give them con-
troll Of the unit vote in future
Statewide primaries.
The controversial unit Sys-
tenn is tied directly 10 member

With the addition Of 10 new
House Of Delegates members
under the reapportionment bill
enacted Thursday, the four sub
urban counties and Baltimore
will control 80 Of the Ill unit
votes, or 50 per cent. They
now control 10 to l52, or 46 per
cent.
Under the unit system. each
county and each Of Baltimore's
six legislative districts has q
unit vote equal to the number
OF members 1t has in the Gen.
eral Assembly.
When the new reapportion-
ment plan goes into effect this
fall, the four suburban coun-
ties will have q total Of ~
unit votes and Baltimore city
will have IS.
Montgomery and Prince
Georges Counties. which now
have seven unit votes each (for

They both get four addition
House members under the re-
apportionment bill.
Baltimore County's unit
votes will increase from seven

more City's from ~ TO IS.
The changes will not have
any effect on this years pri-
maries which were held May

KEY TO OTHER ROADS
Hearing Set on Vital Mile

Several highly disputed in
terstate projects hinge on the
outcome Of a hearing to be
held tomorrow for a vital one
mile stretch of eeway in
Arlington County.
The hearing will be for a link
between Interstate Sc and the
proposed Three Sisters Bridge.
The link is to be called Inter
state 266. and win be built in
Spout Run Park.
This is the only hearing re-
quired by law before the State
Highway Commission can ap-
prove the project and submit 1t
for Federal approval. The hear
ing starts at 10:30 am. at
Arlington Courthouse.
ID. C. Controversy
Civic groups already have
opposed the Three Sisters
Bridge. The groups argue that
its completion would demand
construction Of a freeway
through Glover-Archbald Park.
The National Capital Plan
ming Commission also is invol-
we'd in a controversy over the
bridges approaches on the
District side. Civic groups have
complained that the ap-
proaches will permit heavy
traffic to be routed through
residential neighborhoods.
In Georgetown, civic groups
are opposing construction Of
the Potomac freeway. which
is to carry downstream traf-
fic for the bridge.
There is an additional fight
over approaches at the Vir-
ginia side Of the bridge. The
National Park Service is op-
posing proposals to build
ramps so traffic could come
off George Washington Me-
mortal parkway onto the free
way in Spout Run.
Aitken Cites Need
District Highway Director
Harold Aitken and Virginia
highway officials said the one
mile freeway through Spout
Run Is needed because:
The National Park Service
several years ago limited the
Theodore Roosevelt Bridge at
Constitution avenue to six
lanes. This was to cut down
the number Of cars using the
Lincoln Memorial area. and to
eliminate truck traffic.
The Roosevelt Bridge Is on
the main route Of Interstate
66. But truck traffic and the
cars which could not get
through the bottleneck at the
Roosevelt Bridge were to use
the Three Sisters Bridge,
Therefore, a one-mile con-
nection was to be built through
Spout Run to funnel trucks
and excess cars over the Three
Sisters Bridge and into the
Glover-Archbold Park area.
Mr.. Aitken and the Virginia
officials said around $4,000
vehicles q day would use Inter-
state 266 and the Three Sis
ters Bridge II they were ready
for use today.
BY 1875, an estimated SO, ,00C
vehicles q day will be using
both interstate routes anc
bridges.
Evening star., 1962-06-04

there was no objection to the
bill, Mr.. Tobriner said.
Asked Delay
Last fall, C. Darwin Stolzen-
bach. administrator of the Ma
tional Capital Transportation
Agency, came before the plan
ming commission in a widely
publicized move to postpone
work for one year on several
highway projects backed by
the District Commissioners.
The NCPC rejected Mr.. Stol-
zenbach's request. and later the
Budget Bureau also overruled
any postponements.
Since then a continuous
battle has been carried on by
civic groups in support Of the
postponements.
Two weeks ago, in q split
vote, two Com missioners s
changed their positions and
tried to block two Of the prof.
ects opposed by Mr.. Stolzen-
bach.
Several representatives Of
civic groups appeared TO back
the bill. The legislation would
in effect, make Mr.. Stolen
bach a voting member Of the
/, NCPC.
Hospital Fund
The House District subcom-
mittee. headed by Representa-
tive Dowdy, Democrat of Texas,
also heard testimony for q bill
to increase appropriations for
the Southeast hospital. as
The District Commissioners
objected to the bill. which
would allow the hospital to re-
ceive an extra $375,000 in Fed
eral funds.
Of this. the District would
have to pay back to the Fed
eral Treasury $4,000 of the
increase. The Commissioners
said that District taxpayers
already are committed to pay
an unfair share for hospitals
which will be used by out-of-
District residents.

New Atomic Sky Shot

HONOLULU, Oct. II (AP).-
The United States is wasting
no time trying to redeem its
slumping nuclear prestige by
scheduling another high~alti-
tude shot in the Pacific this
week end, just four days after
the latest failure.
A low-yield nuclear device

tons of INT is set to be touched
off at an expected height OF
20 to 80 miles near Johnston

missile.
But this time the vehicle
probably won't be a Thor, the
cause of four previous failures
in the 1862 Pacific nuclear
series.
Indications were that an
especially constructed booster
using the motor from a surface
to-surface Sergeant" missile
would loft the payload to its
firing altitude. The Sergeant
and a Nike-Hercules rocket are
being used for two of the an
ticipated three shots before the
test program ends. A Thor will
handle the third one.
