This cannot be, however, he declared, unless the people of Virginia and Mary- land look far into the future in their planning and work out some harmon- ious system of co-operation With the National Capital Park and Planning Commission. Judge Smith told of efforts on his | part to form a semi-official body, com- prising representatives from Arlington and Fairfax Counties and Alexandria, | for ccntact with the National Capital |Park and Planning Commission, and | this, he said, is necessary if Virginia is to play its part in this co-operative move. “I would like to see an organiza- | zation that I cculd turn to to find out |what the people want and what is best for this rapidly developing area.” | Ball Bill Flayed.
