to 81 million.
In this first statement to the
Commissioners on costs, the
Redevelopment Land Agency
said gross expenditures on the
project were estimated at $685.
762, 900, of which an estimated
$12.658.000 would be recovered
subsequently through sales oil
land to redevelopers.
\ The project would take five
or more years to complete.
Up to Commissioners
A renewal plan for the 223-
acre area has been approved
by the National Capital Plan
ming Commission but its fate
must await a decision by the
Commissioners. They have
raised questions as to the pri-
GRITTY the project should have
in relation to other renewal
undertakings.

u. S. Action
On Job Bios

District Commissioner Wal
ter N. Tobriner emphatically
supports a move by the Federal
Government to sever relations
with training schools and en-
ployment agencies which prac-
tice racial discrimination.
Mr.. Tobriner, president of the
Board of Commissioners, said
yesterday he was strongly in
favor" of the request to the
Civil Service Commission by
the Presidents Committee on
Equal Employment Opportu-
mites that referral or training
relations between Federal agen-
cies and schools which diScrim-
mate be banned.
II believe such action will
put teeth in a policy where at
tempts at voluntary agreement
failed" said Mr.. Tohriner.
The board president, who last
August attempted to persuade
business schools here to end
. restrictive racial admissions
/. policies, said that once the
) Civil Service Commission COM
plies with the request by the
Presidents committee, he will
determine what steps should
be taken at the District level
to implement the policy.
In his letter last August to
private business schools, Mr..
Tobriner said the Commission
ers had received reports of "a
growing feeling of tension and
unrest among minority groups
because Of discrimination by
various private business schools.
Hobart Taylor, jr., executive
vice chairman Of the Presi-
dents Committee on Equal EN-
ployment Opportunities. ha S
said that the Civil Service Com
mission has agreed to comply
with the committees request.
Under the regulations sought
by the committee. each Fed
eral a agency and department
would be required to discon-
tinue recruiting visits, accept
ing referral from or authoriz-
ing training at any private
school or any private employ
ment agency or other training
source which engages in racial
discrimination.

trict projects or services.
A District renewal spokesman
said the Commissioners prob
ably will make no decision on
whether to go ahead with the
dams-Morgan project until
after the public hearing on
North Capitol-Wes is COM
pleted.
First priority among the two
is held by the North Capitol
West project. District Engineer
Commissioner Frederick j.
Clarke has indicated. 1t is
roughly bounded by North
Capitol street and New York,
New Jersey and Massachusetts,
avenues NV. This area is to
be largely cleared and redevel-
oped with public housing and
dwellings for families of moder-
ate income.
An RIA spokesman said that
standing alone, the Adams
Morgan undertaking probably
would not require the District
TO put up any cash, and that
its contribution of 81 million
could be met by credit for Dis
trict-financed work done with
in the Adams-Morgan area.
But it is not expected that
both areas could be renewed
without the District obtaining
an appropriation from Con-
gress so that an undeter-
mined amount of cash could
be provided by the District
Government.
RIA has not completed a
financial plan for the North
Capitol-West area that would
estimate the total cost and the
amount of financial aid needed
from Federal and District
sources.
2O% for Clearance
The Adams-Morgan renewal
plan calls for purchase and
clearance of more than 20 per
cent Of the land area and sale
of much Of this acreage to
redevelopers.
The remainder Of the proper
ties could be acquired unless
owners voluntarily conform
them to the plans require

According to the Lieutenant,
If everything goes as planned,
-" this will be the first such
team In the United States" 20.
SSgt. John Wright, who first
initiated the idea of the team,
said that he and Lieutenant
Holm had been contemplating
the forming of an endurance
team long before the 50-mile
walk fad was started by Pre-
sident Kennedy.
"What we have In mind,
Wright said, sis program
which will be very much like
what they have In the Neither
lands. There they hold interna-
tonal meets once-a-year with
six to 10 thousand militarypeo-
pie taking part. The meets are
sponsored by the king of Hol-
land. The winning team receives
trophy"
Wright added, 1--WE don't ex-
pect to run off to Holland next
year, but if we develop enough
interest in the program and get
the amount of people we need :
you never can tell what will
happen"
The team Wright refers to
consists of 81 men, the amount
required to put a team into
competition.
AS for the team 1t self, Wright
and Holm are the only members
so far, but they have had a
number of calls regarding the
team.
"We may not even get full
team" Lieutenant Holm said,
''but it's a lot better than a
bunch of guys going out on a
highway trying to walk SOmiles
without training or supervis-
ion : doing it our way, a man
will be able to do so miles
after he has had the proper
training"
Both Wright and Lieutenant
Holm are members of the l607th
Air Base Group. They have
asked that anyone interested in
the team attend the first meet
ing, Wednesday, Mar. 70 al
s pm. in the testing room OF

Check Tax Status,
Marshall Warns

John w. Marshall, local tax
assessor collector, o d y re-
peated a warning his office has
issued several times in the past
few years.
He advised any prospective
purchaser of property within
the Palmer school district or
the city of Palmer to first check
the tax status of the property
at the tax office.
Everyone is entitled to such
information, and it is readily
available" Marshall said.
He explained that a simple
check will prevent a purchaser
from being surprised later with
a bill for back taxes against
the property, which he is COM
PEELED to pay to prevent the
property from being sold. Mar
shall said that this applied to
items Of personal property as

A farewell testimonial was

new school buildings, as need
in other areas might be greater.
Carter called attention to the
Attorney Generals decision on
July is in which he informed
the Commissioner of Education
that Ownership of stateoper-
ated school must be conveyed
by the state to the local school
district as soon as possible after
incorporation. The transfer of
direct administration of these
schools should be made short
ly after incorporation prior to
the beginning of the next fiscal
year and as quickly as is con-
sistent with continuity of oper-
alton and efficient manage
ment.
A second opinion dated July
Is states that the Department
of Education must transfer the
school to the o Il political
subdivision so that such politi-
cal subdivision may carry out
its function of providing, oper-
ating and maintaining schools.
The department has no author
ity to continue maintaining and
insuring such school buildings
after the formation of a newly
organized borough or city. If
a brief period is necessary for
the details of the transfer to be
arranged, use agreement
must be executed, whereby the
political subdivision assumes
the m a or responsibilities of
ownership including costs of
maintenance and insurance.
These two decisions point out
that the Department of Educa-
ton will Immediately turn over
the state-operated schoOlS TO
the borough, Carter said. Capt.
tai outlay for new construction
will then be spread throughout
the borough on some basis of
priority that has yet to be es-
tablished. The superintendent
said that the administrative
staff of the Palmer schools is
not we'll acquainted with the
rural schools of the Matanuska-
Susitna valleys, but it is known
that some are not in what can
be considered first class condi-
ton.

Election Is Last Chance For
Palmer 10 Improve Schools

This is the last fall that Pal
mer Independent School Dis
trict patrons can determine
whether or not to improve
their own local schools, super
intendent R. c. Carter pointed
out this week.
Hereafter, the question will
concern a much wider geogra-
phical area and the school bud
get must be divided through
out this area" he said.
Under present laws, existing
school districts will be able to
sell bonds through the calen-
dar year, Carter stated. How
ever, after formation of the
borough assembly and until
The frontiersman., 1963-09-19

the borough assembly takes
over the operation of the
schools, the selling of the bonds
would have to be done with
the consent of the assembly. If
the borough school should i'm
mediately assume the respon-
sibility of operating h e
schools, Carter said, it is likely
that the bonds could not be
sold at all, since the borough
assembly will n o t represent
the same group of voters that
passed on the bonds. The cleo
torate of the Palmer school dis
trict would then have to wait
their turn in line to get any
