Land Donor Fighting
Plan for Expressway
In Northwest D. C.
One of the donors of the Glo
ver-Archbold Parkway has re
tained attorneys to prevent the
District from building an ex
press highway through the park.
Mrs. Anne Archbold, who with
Charles C. Glover donated a
major portion of the park to
the city, has instruced Attorneys
Hugh Obear and Grant Wiprud
to fight the plan. The attorneys
appeared before the Committee
of One Hundred on the Federal
City yesterday to begin the fight.
| Mrs. Archbold, in a letter to
the group, said the land was
given to the District in 1924 for
park purposes and “for no
j other.”
Sees Breach of Faith.
Mr. Wiprud said Mrs. Arch
| bold considered the plan to build
an express highway through the
narrow park a breach of faith.
He said she would have no ob
jections to a meandering road
through the park similar to the
roads through Rock Creek Park,
however.
The Committee of One Hun
dred, headed by C. Melvin
Sharpe, listened to discussion
of the controversy then adopted
a resolution condemning the
plan to construct the highway.
It also suggested that Foxhall
road be widened to help handle
traffic in that area. The park
way lies between Foxhall road
and Wisconsin avenue.
The District's highway plan
calls for construction of a high
way to be known as Arizona ave
nue Parkway through the park.
The tract is a narrow valley
through which Foundry Branch
flows.
Pact Signed in 1948.
John Nolen, jr., planning di
rector for the National Capital
Planning Commission, said the
Arizona Parkway has been on
paper for many years. In 1948,
the District and the National
Park Service signed an agree
ment calling for construction of
the road.
This agreement followed pas
sage of a bill by Congress author
izing construction of the road
and the naming of it after Ari
zona. Mrs. Archbold and Charles
C. Glover, jr., both protested the
move at the time.
Mr. Wiprud said Mrs. Arch
bold intended to resume fighting
the plan. She feels that such a
highway would destroy the park.
Her letter said she felt con
struction of the highway would
constitute misuse of the prop
erty and entitle her to ‘‘the aid
| of the courts in restoring the
property to its proper use.”
Bridge Also Planned.
The District wants the high
way built as a connection be
tween far Northwest Washing
ton and Key Bridge.
Another complication In the
problem is that the Planning
Commission is thinking about a
new bridge across the Potomac
River to be constructed at a
point where Arizona Parkway
would be the main tie-in with
Northwest Washington.
Concerning the location of the
proposed bridge. Commissioner
Samuel Spencer said the Com- \
missioners planned to consider j
it soon. The Planning Commis- I
sion has not approved the E l
street location advocated by the '
District Highway Department.
Mr. Spencer was a guest at j
the meeting of the Committee '
of One Hundred yesterday.
Appreciation of Aid
During Flood Voiced
By Dutch Chaplain
Appreciation of American aid
to Holland during the flood dis
! aster in February of this year
was voiced yesterday by a Dutch
chaplain visiting here.
‘‘We are told many times and
many things about your six
point program of chaplaincy.”
Chaplain R. H. M. Verhoeven,
said in the office of the Air
Force Chief of Chaplains Charles
I. Carpenter yesterday.
‘‘One of them is the humani
; tarian service. The practice of
[ that point is clearly shown, es
! pecially to us in the Nether
lands. on the occasion of the
j terrible flood disaster over a
i great part of our country. On
your initiative, the chaplaincy
of the Air Force has organized
and collected money for the
flood victims. The generous re
sult of that collecting was
$26,000.”
Chaplain Verhoeven and an
other Dutch chaplain, H. G. Y.
Van Straelen, are among 17 for
eign Chiefs of Chaplains from
overseas and two more from
Canada visiting the United
States.
They have been guests of the
Air Force chaplaincy and have
visited bases at Sampson, N. Y.;
Langley, Va.; Eglin, Fla., and
Keesler, Miss.
\
They arrived here last week
and will leave for home on
Wednesday. The chiefs of chap
lains are from Denmark, Nor
way, Holland, Belgium, France,
Portugal, Italy, England and
Canada.
As a mark of appreciation for
the hospitality shown them, the
Dutch chaplains presented Air
Force Chief of Chaplains Car
penter with two dolls, dressed in
the native costume of the Neth
erlands.
The Protestant chaplains at
tended a dinner in the Hotel
Statler last night as guests of the
Protestant General Commission
on Chaplains. The Catholic
chaplains were guests of the Rt.
Rev. Msgr. John K. Cartwright,
rector of St. Matthew's Catholic
Cathedral, at the Cathedral rec
tory.
Society of Natives Urges
Rent Confrol Till May, '54
The Society of Natives last
night urged the extension of
rent control here to April 30,
1954.
The resolution was sponsored
by Miss Etta Taggart, a Wash
ington lawyer.
James Toomey was elected
president of the society. Other
officers elected were Frank
Gumell, Mrs. Dorothy Hervey
and Mrs. Blanche Young, vice
presidents: Mrs. Susan Kuhn,
corresponding secretary; Walter
Lyddane, recording secretary;
Miss Taggart, historian, and
Fred Umhau, treasurer.
John Weber, retiring presi
dent, conducted the meeting
In the Mayflower Hotel.
