B—4 GRANT TODIELSS | PARKWAY PROJET Northern Virginia Problems Will Be Studied Tonight | in Arlington. 1 1 s Seriously Il HOLLYWOOD ALARMED OVER CONDITION OF PICKFORD. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star, ARLINGTON, Va,, September 25.—A solution of the problems facing proper | development of Northern Virginia will be discussed at a dinner that will be held tonight, at the Army and Navy Country Club, by Lieut. Col. U. §. Grant, 3d, executive officer of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission. The list of guests contains the names of many officials and others who are interested in the Northern Virginia sec- tio | Two things are to be discussed. One is the planning problem and the other is the Virginia part of the George Wash- ington Memorial Parkway project. In connection with the former there will be an attempt made to find out just what the people of Northern Vir- ginia want. Officials of the Natlonal Capital Park and Planning Commission are aware of the fact that the people of Virginia resent any interference by the Federal Government in the administra- | tion of their affairs, it was said, and are | not attempting to interfere, but r: to offer their assistance in’ the development of the section. The Ball planning and zoning act,| which was passed by the last Virginia | General Assembly and which failed to| become_effective through loss of rati- cation by the several jurisdictions af-| fected, will be discussed and an effort made to see whether it may be made workable through amendment. | The commission desires to get some- | thing started in Virginia’s portion of the George Washington Memorial Park- way and Col. Grant believes that the best way of accomplishing this is for | the Virginia and Federal officials to at- tempt an understanding.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md,, September 25 —The investigation by Prince Georges County police into the shooting of Alem K. Marr is leading to the same con. clusion as was reached by the sheriff office—that the man was killed acci-|¥ dentally by children playing with a shotgun—it was learned today. The police started their investigation at the request of State’s Attorney Alan Bowie after a coroner's jury had re- jected thjs theory and returned a verdict that the man was shot by persons other than the children of George McKinzie, caretaker of the Glebe Gun Club, in whose house the body was found. Police yesterday traced the man’s movements from the time he left Marl- boro Friday morning until he reached McKinzie's home that afternoon. He was shot early the next morning. Joseph McKinzie, who is about 7 years cld, demonstrated his ability to break and load a heavy shotgun several times yesterday at the request of police. The officers say he described ‘the shooting to them yesterday. Although admitting _their probe petited to the same conclusion reached September 25 (N.A. | by the sherifl’s office, police are not yet willing to close the case and will con- tinue their investigation today.
