own land.
Neville Miller, RIA chair
man, asked Mrs. Ellis:
do you want to lease your
own land?"
"Yes, sir" Mrs. Ellis replied.
Mrs. Ellis, widow of Cy Ellis,
longtime waterfront restau-
rant proprietor, explained she
thought the real purpose Of
today's hearing should be Ito
find out whether there is a
legal priority for displaced
waterfront businesses or
whether the intent of Congress
is to be set aside" She added:
1T seems to me that the
statutory priority holders
should have been considered
first before others not indig-
enous to the waterfront were
brought in. This plan does
not come anywhere near pro-
viding the parking that is
needed. A hundred cars are
nothing for one restaurant"
81 Displaced
Today's informal hearing was
held to receive comments from
as many of the approximately
81 diSplacees as wished to be
heard on a redevelopment plan
prepared by a nonprofit citi-
zens' group known as Wash
ington Channel Waterfront,
Inc.
Oppose Single Developer
Its program would permit in
dividual leasing of tracts Of
land to diSplaceeS and opposes
reconstruction of the mile-long
channel embankment area by
a single developer.
The conSultant groups plan
was disclosed two months ago
and since then has been under
consideration by priority hold
ers and RIA, which invited to-
days comments and sugges-
tions."

WE SHOULD FOLLOW NoRwAYS EXAMPLE
WITH TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS on the rise in

WITH TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS on the rise in this Island,
perhaps some thought ought to be given to
drive. Those who hate change, either because they are afraid
Of ii, or because they do not want the trouble to work at it.
viii argue long and loud that things are fine just as they are
and should not be disturbed. ALI that is well and good, but
the accidents not only continue, but are on the rise.
TWAS HEARTENINC news that Norway is abandon
ing its hftlhand drive after some 200 years. All things consid-
cred, this change did not come about because that nation
wanted to ape anybody else. The answer lies in the need for
a change, since the right hand drive is full Of problems and
posslplnueS for error and accident. So
IN CASE here the need is even greater than else
where. We purchase practically all our cars from the main
land, and all these care are built for the left-hand drive. With
the steering wheel on the left Of the car, the driver of the
vehicle passes other on-coming cars on the LEFT, in aright-hand
drive system. This places the driver in an excellent position
to see the distance between his car and the on-coming car.
Also, with the steering wheel on the left the driver has a more
complete view Of the road ahead of him because he is literally
in the center Of the road With the left-hand drive the driver
IS on the edge Of the road nearest the shoulder, or gutter, which
places hin at decided disadvantage.
ANY CHANGE should come only after enough time has
been granted, and the motoring public given an opportunity
to be heard and to participate in trial periods.
LEFT-HAND DRIVE will not solve all our accident
problems in one swift stroke, but it will 60 a long way IN re-
ducing these accidents and in saving life and limb.

Star Staff Writer

The Civil Service Commits
sion says its review of the Gov
ernment's merit promotion
program shows that no major
policy changes are needed.
The commission declared,
however, that improvements
could be made in some areas.
1t acknowledged that Federal
employees often do not have
full confidence" in promotion
programs in which agencies do
not advertise job vacancies.
The csc did not make it
mandatory on agencies to ad-
vertise all job vacancies and
promotion opportunities. but
urged that such information be
disseminated as widely as pos
sible through bulletin boards,
notices and other means.
Incidentally. employe leaders
feel the CSC has not gone far
enough in their regard and that
agencies should be required to
advertise all personnel vacan-
cies in order that employees can
apply for the promotions in
volved.
The commission also clarified
situations under which normal
competitive promotion plans
can be ignored. 1t said such
promotions on a non-competi-
tive basis are justified wher
done properly In the case OF
employees assigned to under
study" jobs, employees assigned
to another position with the
understanding that 1t will be
upgraded later, greater work re-
sponsibility and duties, and Sc
lection Of persons Of superior
ability to be trained for higher
grade work.
However, the commission
said these planned manage.
ment actions" in promotion
often have been taken without
the knowledge of personnel Of
ficials and have resulted II
complaints of favoritism. 1

Some Promotion Programs Found

competitive promotions under

to them as career promo
tions" to distinguish them from

Also, the commission ordered
elimination of designation of

nation.
In addition, the csc stressed
that in filling some Of the top
Jobs, agencies are justified in

some instances. even though
1T is entirely proper that most

be filled by promotion from

In conclusion, the csc called

that employees will be better
