Democrat of South Carolina
and chairman Of the House
District Committee, said "it is
going to take both modern
highways and a rapid transit
system to handle the daily
traffic coming into the Dis
trict."
Mr.. Mcmillan said it was his
pleasure to serve as vice chair
man with Senator Bible on the
Joint Committee, and indicated
he would like to hold joint
hearings on the transit legis-
lation.
Joint hearings started today
on the proposals to increase
the Federal payment to the
District. This and other con-
gressional matters will delay
hearings until July or later on
the transit proposals. spokes-
men for the committees said.
The presidential recommenda-
ton for enabling legislation
for the transit agency would
grant very unusual and very
sweeping powers. The legisla-
ton would give the agency all
authorization needed to COM
plete its 10-year transit de-
veiopment program, calling for
a 98-mile rail transit system.

Rezoning Stayed

The Falls Church City Coun-
Gil deferred action last night
on two proposals to rezone
residential property for apart
ments and one for business use
until an overall review of the
city's land use plan is COM
pleted next fall.
The key rezoning applica-
ton, involving over five acres
of the Chanel property on
West Broad street, called for a
81 million, ll5-unit luxury
apartment development.
The council members gener-
ally agreed that while they did
not oppose the apartment plan
itself, its impact could have a
detrimental effect on adjacent
residential properties.
The deferred second apart
ment proposal was for IL units
on property at Little Falls
street and the Washington &

one for business rezoning of q

gressmen said today.
And chairmen of both the

gional rail transit system.

The
Rambler
Makes
A Confession
BY JOHN McKELWAY

The Rambler felt ridicu-
lous.
He had been strolling up
Fourteenth street towards
the District Building when
he decided to go over and
have a closer look at that
memorial, in the middle of
the block, across from the
Department of Commerce.
The fountain had been
turned off but there was
water in the pool, still and
colorless and a bit brackish.
In the stone surrounding
the fountain, he reads:
"185O-To the Memory of
Oscar S. Straus-1926."
The Rambler looked off in
the distance and tried to re-
member who. in the world
Oscar S. Straus was. Moth
ing happened. Was he a
Secretary of Labor or some
thing? Was it possible The
Rambler could be standing
besides a substantial memo
rial to someone he had
never heard Of? Yes.
Two words-"Author" and
Diplomat" - both cut into
the fountain did not help.
1t was apparent that the
writings of oscar S. Straus
had not been called to The
Rambler's attention; he had
also missed the gentleman's
accomplishments in the dip
lomatic field.
He moved over to inspect
the statuary on either side

RaiI-Auto Conflict Nearino
Critical Test in Congress

last fall asked for S1.4 million
in local matching funds for the
bridge and Potomac Freeway.
Because the projects now are
eligible for 80 per cent match
ing funds, the $1.4 million local
authorization would give all
congressional approval needed
for complete financing.
The House Appropriations
Committee on several occasions
has voted local matching funds
for the bridge and freeway, in
Guiding 100000 last year. Total
funds appropriated for the
bridge are $3.3 million, and the
local one-tenth and federal
nine-tenths proposed for this
year ($2.5 million would COM
plete financing.
Closed Sessions First
Any transit system requiring
10 years to complete should
Clearly indicate" to taxpayers
that freeways for which funds
previously were appropriated
should be continued, Mr..
hatcher said.
The highway program must
be carried on with "any and all
proposals" for a rapid transit
system, he added.
The executive session hear
ings for District officials should
continue for around two weeks.
Then the public will be per-
mitted to testify at several open
sessions. which should come late
in June. spokesman for the ap-
preparations subcommittee said.
The promise to consider
transit recommendations by
President Kennedy when the
highway budget was reviewed
is considered significant.
Congress has not voted ena-
bling legislation or passed ap-
preparations for the transit
system. 1t is unusual for an
appropriations subcommittee to
consider cutting an authorized
program in favor of a program
that has not been approved.
The statements by Mr.. hatcher
are a reflection of President
Kennedy putting his weight be-
hind the transit proposals.
Bible Comments

Nevada and chairman of the
Senate District Committee. said
the presidential recommended
tions provide a working base

and. hopefully, action on the
