The 15,000-acre project, 35 miles
southwest of Washington, near the

typical of the 46 recreational land
use projects under development In 24
States.
The Chopawamsic area will be
administered by the National Capital

ministers parks in the District of Col
umbia. It is being developed primarily
for the use of the underprivileged of
the District of Columbia area, but will
be open to similar groups in Virginia.
Hall said one of the purposes of the
National Park Service's development of
the Chopawamsic area was to help
more than 100 families, many of which
have been on relief, in the project
area. Some are being helped through
the Resettlement Administration, to
move to more productive farm land,
while others have been given em
ployment in the recreation area de

Bandits Flee Without Loot
4s Tear Gns Floods Bank
By the Associated Press.
HALEDON. N. J., May 2».—Six ban
dits who attempted to hold up the
Haledon National Bank today were
driven from the bank without any loot
when one of the seven employes, lined
up before sawed-off shotguns, tripped
a lever which flooded the building with
tear gas.
The bandits, blinded by the gas
fumes, fled and made their escape In
an automobile which State police said
had been stolen only yesterday in ad
joining Bergen County.
There were four or five customers in
the bank in this suburb of Paterson
when the bandits entered.
Theodore Ellis, an assistant teller,
was the employe who set off the tear
gas while the bandits were covering
him and his co-workers with guns.
Less than half an hour later the
robbers' car was abandoned near the
intersection of Union - and Sherman
avenues. Persons living in the neigh
borhood said two men leaped from the
machine and fled on foot.
When the robbers entered the bank
one of them covered Marinus C. Tam
boer, former State Assemblyman and
president of the bank. He ordered
him to get into the rear of the bank.
The bandits forced Alice Rolando,
an employe, to open the door admit
ting them to the section of the bank
where the vault was, Tamboer said.
It was at this moment that the flood
of tear gas was let loose, and the ban
dits dashed from the bank, crying,
gasping and choking, without stopping
to seize any money, the president said.

PUBLIC TO DECIDE
Suggestions of Contributors
Will Determine Form
of Monument.
Fy the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE. May 29 —The Ritchie
Memorial Commission has decided to
let contributors to the memorial fund
determine the type of monument to
be established to the late Albert C.
Ritchie, Governor of Maryland for
15 years.
Col. Stuart S. Janney, chairman of
the commission, said “The people
should voice their views about the
form the memorial ought to take.”
“It should not be understood that
every individual's ideas can be carried
out,” he continued. "That would be
impossible. But there can hardly be
as many individual groups of Ideas
as there are individual subscriptions;
there will be a few groups of Ideas
and hundreds of individual views will
fall Into one of those groups. This
should be helpful In making the Anal
decision. The commission believes
that in extending the opportunity to
all Marylanders to subscribe to the
Ritchie Memorial It should also invite
the fullest and freest voicing of
opinions concerning its form.”
Col. Janney said no formal “cam
paign’’ was planned to raise the
money. He said he felt sure the
best response would come from a
simple announcement that the or
ganization had been set up and was
ready to receive funds. A number
of county chairmen to perfect their
own organizations have been ap
pointed. Those who have been named
include;
Washington County, W. D. Byron,
Williamsport; Frederick, Hammond
Cleary; Carroll County, D. Eugene
Walsh. Westminster; Howard, Edwin
Warfield, Jr., Woodbine; Prince
Georges, H. C. Byrd, College Park;
Charles, James W. Wills, La Plata;
St. Marys, A. F. King. Leonardtown;
Montgomery. E. Brooke Lee; Calvert.
