completed architectural plans
for conversion and pending
electrical plans would be put
in the hands of bidders shortly.
This could be done before the
District Board Of zoning Ad-
justment acts on the Press
Building owners request for a
coming variance to put in offices.
The board expects to act
by mid-June, at its first execu-
tive session after a June IL
hearing.
A variance is required be-
cause offices would create a
greater density than now
exists inside the building. Also,
since Congress originally al
lowed the building to exceed
the city'S height limit, any
change in use must be cleared
by the local board.
Legislation Pending
Representative XVI, Republi-
can Of Iowa, one of the inter-
ested Congressman, has pro-
tested that such change must
be cleared by Congress, not by
the board. because of the
original congressional author
ization.
Legislation directing the
District Commissioners to rent
or lease the Capitol as a the
alter has been introduced by
Mr.. XVI and Representatives
Widnall, Republican of New
Jersey, and Multer, Democrat
of New York, and Senator
Beall, Republican of Maryland.
Mr.. Blumenthal's offer in
cluded a promise to renovate
the building, to install high
speed automatic elevators and
to guarantee the stockholders
of the National Press Club
Corp. about 81 million in CASH
over and above the mortgage
indebtedness.
Some n per cent of the
corporation is vested In the
National Press Club.

Falls Church Refuses
Porent's Tuition Plea

The Falls Church School
Board last night turned down
a white parents request to pay
the. full tuition for his son to
attend a Fairfax County school
rather than one In the city.
The board has been paying
the full cost of tuition for Negro
children attending county
schools because there is none
for Negroes In the city, but the
policy was changed last month.
Henceforth, the city will con-
tinue to pay the full tuition
only for Negro children already
enrolled in county schools.
Lewis p. Jones, the white
parent. asked permission of the
board to pay a $3.50 tuition fee
since, he argued, the board has
been paying the full cost for
Negro children. He noted that
under the States tuition grant
law. transfer students are en-
titled to grants of up to $275.
paid for by the State and the
locality.
; In rejecting Mr.. Jones re-
quest, Board Chairman j.
Rober Wollenber said that
under the revised policy,
adopted last month. only the
State-local tuition grants will
be paid for Negro children en-
rolling for the first time and
white children.
Approximately rs Sabotage
Negroes live in the city and
four currently attend formerly
all-white city schools. Most of
the remainder attend county
schools.

BuiIdingHeight
Limit Rejected
In Alexandra
BY JERRY KLINE
Star staff Writer

A controversial proposal tc
limit the height Of buildings ir
the historic district Of Alex.
andria was defeated last night
by the City Council which, in
stead. called for a broad study
Of construction regulations.
Under city law, the proposed
ordinance apparently may moi
be reconsidered by the council
within q year. 1t would have
placed a 62-foot height limit
on buildings in the "Old and
Historic Alexandria District,
including the main thorough
fare, Washington street. The
proposal had sharply divided
businessmen and old town resi-
dents.
The council also entered q
growing dispute involving the
school board and school budget
and accepted q proposal for a
meeting between city and school
officials.
Mayor Frank E. Mann, who
suggested the joint meeting
said the discussion will cover
"the conduct Of their School
board meetings, their method
Of handling the minutes (oi
closed metings) and their
budget"
He suggested that the par
Elephants include himself, City
Manager Albert M. Hair, IT.,
School Board Chairman Cor
man Ridgely. City Attorney v.
Floyd williams and the next
school superintendent, John C.
Albohm.
Closed Meetings Scored
The board has been criticized
for its refusal to release the
minutes Of closed meetings de-
spite an apparent conflict with
an opinion by Virginia Attorney
General Robert Y. Button.
Councilman John K. Pickens,
who last year vigorously at
tackled the 1962-63 school bud
get said last night the board
lis showing a very cooperative
attitude this year, especially in
relation to the budget" The
new budget may be released by
the council next Tuesday.
The city's building height
controversy arose in January
after Gilman Robert v. New
announced plans to construct
a high-rise structure next to
his historic Lloyd House at
220 North Washington street.
Decision Delayed
Since then another high-rise
office building on North Wash
ington street has been APP
proved by the Architectural
Board Of Review, but action on
Mr.. News plan was postponed
during the dispute over the
62-foot restriction.
T. Edward Braswell. presi-
dent Of the Old Town Civic
Association, and Attorney
James M. Thomson, represent
ing the businessmen and build
ers, supported the motion for
q general study.
The council asked the COM
mission to prepare a prelim-
mary report by March rs.
