Split in the Ranks

In brief report on governmental
deficiencies in Prince Georges County,
William ]. AvrutiS and James F. Vance
cogently state the case for home-rule
charter. To the extent that their effort
reflects mounting public interest in the
charter movement, it is good thing.
The fact is, however, that broadly
based citizen organization already is in
being to work for voter approval Of
charter commission in the general cleo
lions year from now. And instead Of
joining this group, Mr.. Avrutis and Mr..
Vance intend to mount an entirely sep
arate drive Of their own, which evidently
will compete with the existing organiza-
ton for leadership.
Nothing, Of course, could be more
pleasing to the entrenched political
champions Of the status quo in Prince
Georges. They were able to beat back
the advocates of charter reform in
county referendum last November by
the paper-thin margin Of 81 votes. A
major factor in that victory was dis
sension in the ranks of the charteriteS.
Some of the county organizations which
could have been most effective at the
polls lost heart for the fight. The voters
were confused. And so the chance to
modernize local government in Prince
Georges went by the boards.
1t would be foolhardy for charter
ties to repeat the mistake.

peoples everywhere. But this overSim-
plifies the nature of our times and the
task of dealing with potential and actual
oppreSSorS or aggressors. In the event
of something like a new Hungarian
uprising, for example, how could the
U. N. strike against the Soviet Union
without inviting a nuclear and thermo-
nuclear holocaust?
Clearly, though God and history
may be on his side when he talks of
1886, the Emperor of Ethiopia is on
unSound ground when he compares
that age to the times we live in now.
They are simply not the same, and
so we must deal with them differently
having in mind the fearSome nature
of atomic-hydrogen weapons and what
could be the result Of an about war
with them.

Another Spy

It has to be expected that the
Russians, by one means or another,
will be able to recruit spies in the
United States. But they seem to be
overriding it at the National Security
Agency.
Belatedly, through The Star, the
public learns that sergeant stationed
there killed himself last July after he
had sold out to the Kremlin. And to
compound the outrage, a Pentagon
spokesman says a record Of petty
thievery and immoral conduct" was
turned up by an investigation after
the sergeant sought transfer to civilian
status. The thing that bugs US is why
after?
Most writer's refer to this outfit
as the "super-Secret" National Security
Agency. What taught On its security"
record it ought to be called the sieve
like Department Of Insecurity.

Air Riqhts

In approving a Third street route
for the center leg of the inner loop
freeway, the Commissioners have made
the obviously correct choice. Severe
problems, especially those involving
churches north Of Massachusetts, ave-
nue., still must be worked out. But
similar problems could not have been
avoided by shift Of location without
abandoning the entire concept of this
urgently needed road.
1t is a happy coincidence that the
Commissioners simultaneously have d.
rected the Highway Department to de-
velop legislation authorizing the use Of
"air rights" over freewayS For the CEN
ter leg, cutting through the heart Of
the city, is an ideal example of the
type of road over which air space could
be effectively and imaginatively used
for a variety Of structures. To some
degree, at least, this relatively untested
concept might become valuable means
of offsetting the heavy toll in land
which modern highways remove from
city tax rolls.
To be sure, number Of questions
remain to be answered. How much of
the freewayS, for example, should be
covered? What are "air rights" worth?
To whom should they be given? What
are the most suitable uses-and which
are clearly unSuitable2 Who makes the
decisions?
These, however, are the kind of
questions that arise when any new pub
lie program is approached. Certainly
the answers should not be left to the
highway experts alone. The prob
lems-and more Importantly the poten-
tial benefits-are sufficiently great for
the Commissioners to bring such agen-
cies as the National Capital Planning
Commission and the National Capital
Downtown Committee into the picture
at once.

Hard to Live With

The most recent "crisis" in the
difficult business Of peacefully coexist-
ing with the Russians seems to have
blown over At least the United States
military convoy, held up by the Rus
SLAMS for two days, finally has been
permitted to proceed to West Berlin.
And the apprehensions raised by this
strange performance appear to have
subsidized.
1t Is hard to understand why the
Russians would provoke an incident Of
this sort. For unless they are engaged
in haraSSment for haraSSment'S sake,
the autobahn affair makes no sense
from the point of view of the Kremlin
or anyone else. Such an incident can
only serve in the international arena
to make its small contribution toward
poisoning the East-WeSt climate at
time when Mr.. Khrushchev seems to
be trying to relax tensions and improve
relations. But where is the logic2 Per-
haps Winston Churchill came as close
as possible to an answer when he
commented in 1899 that Russia sis
riddle wrapped in mystery inside an
enigma"
There is nothing uncertain, how
ever, about the effect of this sort Of
thing in the United States. Although
the stopping Of convoy is Of no real
Importance, it is precisely the kind of
incident which inflames public Senti-
ment and feeds that deep distrust of
the Russian Communists which has
developed with plenty of reason over
the years.
The immediate result is two-fold.
The President as he strives for more
normal relationship with the Soviet
Union is weakened on the domestic
political front. And this, in turn, adds
significantly to the problem Of achiev-
ing better living arrangement be-
tween Washington and Moscow. If the
Russians really want detente, which
Of course may not be the case, they
should understand that this is def
nitely the wrong way to go about
getting it.

More Bad News

The bad news from London, which
could use turn for the better, con-
tinueS to go badly. That insular area
known as Club Row where gentlemen
long have barricaded themselves against
the erosion of Empire, international
crises, domestic scandals and, perhaps
most ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS in deep
trouble.
First the Royal Automobile Club
violates Clubland's anti-worldlinesS code
by putting up sign which lights up
at night-an ugly beacon certain to
attract undesirables to the carefully
unilluminated row. To most Of the
others-White'S, Boobies, the Garrick,
the Savile, Beefsteak and Athenaeum
this is high treason.
But even more shocking is the re-
port, on good authority Of a Times
journalist, that a woman recently was
seen slipping tea in the library of the
Carlton Club, once likened in its con-
servatism to "a ducal mansion with
the Duke lying dead upstairs"
All this is most depressing, and
would be more so, but for the encour-
aging reaction of one doughty member
who allegedly sputtered: by George,
If a woman came into the backgam-
mon room, she'd be stoned"

100 Years Ago

George Armstrong Custer,
the boy general with the long,
golden curls (which he had
shorn with horse-clippers be-
fore setting out for his last
stand" at Little Big Horn,
was swinging q saber for the
Union in nearby Virginia q
century ago. Long Hair"
as the Indians called him, was
a newly minted West Pointer,
shining with spit-and-polish,
when the Civil War got under
way. Gen. Winfield Scott
gave him his first assign
ment, that Of carrying dis
patches to Gen. Mcdowell,
who was preparing for the
first battle of Bull Run. Gus
ter did some fighting there
with the 5th Cavalry; then
he became aide de-camp to
Phil" Sheridan, and later
served in that capacity for
Mcclellan. His rise was rapid.
His dashing ways got him q
generals star before Gettys-
burg. In that conflict his out
fit gave Gen. Wade Hamp-
tons cavalry a bad time, and
he added to his laurelS by
pursuing Lees retreating
army. Since Gettysburg, Lees
army of Northern Virginia
and Meade's Army Of the Po-
tomac had seen little action,
except for occasional small
scale raids and cavalry
clashes. One of these occur

Fair Redistrictinq

1t was reporte d in your
news columns that Is Mary
land State senators would
vote against a rediStricting
plan devised by the Mary
land Citizens Committee for
Fair Congressional RI dis
tricting.
I doubt very much If this
would be the case, If Gov.
Tawes chose to support the
plan. Most Of the Sena-
tors listed are from the East
ern Shore, the Governors
own stamping grounds. If he
should say, Lets give the
people of Maryland a good
rediStricting law, and this
looks like a good plan," I am
sure they would rally around
him as they have done before
on so many other issues.
1t is more significant to
note that the other 16 Sena-
tors would probably vote for
the plan. Just a wee bit of
leadership from the Cover
nor at this point might con-
vert two of the others, thus
