A drive to spur passage Of a
bill lifting the road building
freeze west of Twelfth street
was begun yesterday by the
Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission.
The agency instructed Will
liam ]. Stevens and j. Newton
Brewer, jr., commission chair
man and vice chairman, re-
spectively. to maintain close
contact with Capitol Hill, daily
If necessary, to get the measure
through Congress.
The planners agreed yester-
day to throw all their support
behind the bill after formally
scuttling a two-month-old pro-
posal for a STA million free
way along the Potomac River
Palisades in Montgomery
County. The controversial
highway was planned as the fl
nal leg of Interstate Route 10
s from Pooks Hill into the Dis
trict.
Maryland Senators Beall, a
Republican. and Brewster, a
Democrat, introduced the bill
yesterday which would kill the
present prohibition on all ma
jor road construction west Of
Twelfth street. The ban expires
July /, 1865.
Key to Road Plans
I'VE are never going to get
anywhere with plans for a road
through western Montgomery
County until we get that freeze
lifted" Mr.. Brewer said.
Designed principally as a tool
to kill earlier plans for a Wis
consin avenue corridor to bring
Interstate 70-S into the Dis
trict, the freeze also has
Stymied the plotting of all
parallel alternative routes.
Maryland planners cannot get
District highway officials to
designate a connection link
because of the bodybuilding
ban west of Twelfth street.
During its brief life, the al
ternate Palisades route was de-
nounced by waves of opposition
from business and residential
interests attacking it as among
other things, a needless dupi-
cation of the George Washing

Officials Of the University Of

blast yesterday from q Prince
Georges County Commissioner
who said that If the college

for everything depended upon
the position in which the slip

girl was to be married within
