OFFICIALS INSPEC RECREATION AREA -:zz Party Makes Aerial Study of 8,000-Acre Plot in Quantico Section. An aerial survey of the projected recreation area, some 30 miles from ‘Washington, near Quantico, Va. on Chapawamsic Creek, was made yes- terday afternoon by C. Marshall Finnan, superintendent of the Na- tional Capital Parks; a group of In- terior Department officials; Henry I. Quinn, attorney, delegate to the Fed-' eration of Citizens' Associations and member of the Board of Education, and Miss Mary E. Coulson of the Washington Council of Social Agen- cies. The area is in Prince Willlam | and Stafford Counties. Taking off from the Naval Air Sta- tion at Anacostia shortly after 3:30 o'clock, the party flew over the area set aside for acquisition by Uncle Sam for boys’ and girls' camps and recreation and rest areas for mothers and children who are underprivileged. The aviators circled the area and flew across it, affording the officials a fine view of the project, to be de- veioped under President Roosevelt's submarginal lands program. The area will be about 8,000 acres, when com- pleted, but none of the land has yet passed into Federal ownership. Aloft, the officials looked at maps | and close-up photographs of the hilly | countryside, to gain a clearer view of | the project. but many of them hnrll been over it afoot. They got a good | view of Chopawamsic Creek and offi- cials pointed out several sites that will be suitable for Summer camps Accompanying Finnan's party were.| Edward Kelly, his administrative as sistant; Malcolm Kirkpatrick, land- scape architect of the National Capital Parks; Charles E. Peterson, deputy chief of the branch of plans and désign, National Park Service; Charles H. Gerner and Matt C. Huppuch, both | of the land program division of the National Park Service, and newspaperl men. i The party visualized the relation- ship of the new Chopawamsic de- velopment to other public areas in that region of Virginia, flew near the Marine Corps post at Quantico and on the homeward hop over Mount Vernon. Harry L. Hopkins, Federal Relief Administrator, is co-operating in the purchase of the land.
