Immediate action on q pro-

termination housing order fol
Washington was urged today
by the District Citizens Council
Tilford Dudley, council chair
man, said recommendation
prepared by the council repre-
sent a general consensus of the
differing views of the city's legal
office and a special lawyers
committee headed by Joseph L.
lRauh.
One Of the major changes
lin the proposed compromise
is that it would ban housing
discrimination based on race
and color only.
Previous Measures
The m measures previously
drafted by the corporation
counSel's office and the Rauh
committee had proposed ban
ming discrimination on race
and color as well as on religion
and national origin.
Mr.. Dudley explained that
when the Commissioners an
nounced last March that there
was justification for issuing a
fair housing order, they did so
on the grounds that racial dis
elimination in housing resulted
in "a danger" to the COM
munity.
Mr.. Dudley said that the
Commissioners did not include
in the finding a statement that
the community was endangered
because Of discrimination based
on religion or national origin.
Recommendation
The recommendation of the
Citizens Council, top advisory
group to the District Com
missionerS, said:
"The community leaders seem
to be ready psychologically for
the order but time viii be
needed to inform the public of
the specific terms and proce-
dures and conduct the educa-
tional campaign needed to
obtain popular understanding
and compliance.
"This win be difficult in the
confusion and concentration of
interest customary during the
Christmas and New Year sea-
sons.
I'VE therefore recommend
that the Commissioners issue
heir regulation forthwith, max
ing it effective on the 18th
day after the adjournment of
the present session of Congress,
and that the educational cam
paign be commenced immedi-
ately."
The recommendation was

eral approval by the Commits
sioners and sent to the Bureau
of the Budget.
Two Drafts Sent
Actually. it was learned to-
day, two alternative drafts were
sent to the Budget Bureau from
the District Building. One is
the version now being circulated
by the Bureau of the Budget to
the affected agencies and is
the one the Commissioners pre-
ferred at that time.
The second draft was based
on a plan proposed by the Fed
eral City Council, which would
have given the Commissioners
more authority over urban re-
newal. but would have kept the
RIA board.
Mr.. Tobriner said today that
II am not convinced 1t would be
desirable to abolish the RIA
board.
However, ] do believe that
the RIA board should be who'll
ly appointed by the District
Commissioners and responsible
to the Commissioners"
At present, three Of the ap-
pointments to the five-man
RIA board are made by the
Commissioners. The other two
appointments are made by the
President.
Brig. Gen. Clarke said that
he believes that "in the long
rum it would be better not to
have the RIA in the chain of
command. I supported the re-
organization order because it
has administrative simplicity"
Would Back TObriner
However, the general indi-
Gated that he would be willing
to support Mr.. Tobriner's posi-
ton on the RIA board.
The third District Commis-
sioner, John B. Duncan, was
testifying today before a con-
greSsional committee and was
not Immediately available for
comment.
The District Commissioners
are expected to take q formal
position on the reorganization
order soon, after considering
objections which have been
made by the NCPC and the
RIA to the Budget Bureau.
The reorganization order
must be submitted by President
Kennedy to Congress before
June /, the expiration date of
the Reorganization Act of l949.
If a reorganization plan is
submitted by the deadline, it
would go into effect automati-
cally unless a simple majority
Of either the House or the
Senate disapproved it.

in a letter to Harold Seidman,

The Virginia Highway De-

The Federal Bureau Of Public
Evening star., 1963-05-03

Roads has requested the study,
in an attempt to settle the
fierce dispute over the proposed
Three Sisters Bridge.
Use Of Park Opposed
Opponents Of the bridge on
both sides Of the Potomac
River have complained that 1t
encroaches precious park prop
erty. In the District earlier
proposals called for the bridge
TO be part Of the intermediate
loop. which would go through
the Glover-Archbold Park.
In Virginia the freeway ap-
proaches TO the bridge would
use Spout Run parkway for
about one mile.
The new alternate would be
farther east. at a point where
Interstate Route 66 sweeps close
to the river before going
through the Rosslyn area to
reach the Theodore Roosevelt
Bridge site.
The new location would give
less service TO Arlington County
residents. because they would
not be able TO use II TO reach
locations In western areas OF
the District or MONTGOMERY
County. officials studying the
proposal said.
Design Complications
The latest proposal also
would present complicated en-
gineering and design problems.
because a cramped interchange
would be near the river.
The Virginia Highway De-
partment is building an eight
lane freeway through Arling-
ton County TO the bridge site.
which up TO now has Decn the
Three Sisters Bridge. The de-
partment would have TO buy
additional right OF way and
conduct more design studies
before the different bridge pro-
posals are judged.
Another proposal under study
calls for changing the angle OF
the Three Sisters Bridge so II
would not point directly toward
over.Archbold Park.

-. . Rides
The General
By JOHN MeKELWAY

With a vague notion Of
stealing the General, The
Rambler moved into Alex
andria around 2 pm, slipped
past an unidentified band
playing "76 Trombones" and
a crowd of gentlemen who
appeared to be either rail-
road or city officials, and
boarded the train at Union
Station.
The General had wheezed
into Alexandra after taking
water near the city. The
ancient locomotive, stolen
for about eight hours dur
ing the Civil War by some
Yankees, arrived under
sponsorship Of the Rich
mond, Fredericksburg and
Potomac Railroad and the
City Of Alexandria's Civil
War Centennial Committee.
He (the GeneraD was pull

equally ancient coach. He
CThe Rambler) sat down
hard on a stiff seat. There
was a potbellied stove in
the rear. Some literature,
passed out by the sponsors
of the ride, noted, however,
that she (the coach) had
only been retired since 1853.
After some 40 people or so
had climbed aboard, we
moved off up the tracks in
the direction of washington.

tured later. Seven we're

escaped from prison.

Bribe in Savings-Loan Talk

Snow Hill law office was rented
to First Continental Savings q
Loan Association because the
Eastern Shore needed a source
of capital. The law offices were
never occupied. The witness
said he agreed to cancel the
lease after Edlin paid him four
months rent in August. 1861.
Il had seen their statement
Of operationS-they had a beau
tiful statement :" he said.
After trying to obtain a Federal
savings and loan association for
the area, he testified, he turned
to Edlin and Mr.. Robinson.
Branch Made Difficult
Mr.. johnson said that 5000 a
month was a fair price for a
modern, five-room, air-condi-
toned building on Main street.
A regulatory bill had Just been
passed in Maryland which
would go into effect in June,
1861, he stated. This would
make the establishment of a
new branch as difficult as
establishing a new association,
he said. Consequently they
hurried the lease through in
May. 1861. -..
Mr.. johnson told the court
room that Edlin Cancelled the
lease agreement because he
could not get competent help
and the location was too remote
for convenience.
Earlier in the day, the Gov
cross-examined Harry
Adelberg, who had testified that
Mr.. johnson had done legal
work for Edlin.
Mr.. Adelberg. who keeps an
office with Mr.. Johnson's name
on the door but admitted that
the Congressman had no desk
there, testified that Mr.. John
son had spent some time" in
the office going over 305 mort
cages for a Southern Maryland
