The Boston iilobe Friday, February 2, 1968 3 Hammonl )Or(Ma1 EXTRA LAND feVv Birth Control Aid Urged United Press International YASHINGTON Secretary of State Dean Rusk said Thursday that the world's runaway population growth is as great a threat to peace as nuclear weapons. Unless the population growth is checked within the next two decades, Rusk said it would be equalled as an international problem "only by the problem of establishing and maintaining controls over nuclear weapons." In a statement submitted to a Senate subcommittee on foreign aid expenditures, Rusk said, "It is essential that our aid programs be restored to a level corresponding to the great needs of the countries we are helping." William Gaud, administrator for the Agency for International Development (AID), told the subcommittee that despite sharp foreign aid cuts, about $25 million would be spent this fiscal year for family planning projects. Rusk added that the United States is concerned about overseas population growth because many undeveloped countries find it impossible to provide adequate schools, housing, health services and jobs for rapidly increasing populations. i mm smssm USED HAMMOND ORGAf 8 WINTER SALE!

One will be at Capen st. The -other will be at Central av. where the tracks will go overhead on a concrete structure.

PLOTKIN Transportation Editor The third, and most ingenious, plan to clear the Bennett-Eliot car yards in Cambridge to make way for vthe Kennedy Memorial was unveiled Thursday by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority.

The proposal, outlined to a few local officials earlier this would create a new storage and maintenance facility for rapid transit cars at the present Mattapan sq. terminus of the speed trolley line be-tween Mattapan and Ash- mont. It would also extend the present Harvard-Ashmont rapid transit line to Mattapan over the IVz -mile trolley route which partly parallels I the Neponset River. THE ADVANTAGES As seen by M.B.T.A. Gen- eral Manager Leo J.

Cusick "the scheme would offer these advantages: i The total new land needed would be only about 10,000 feet less than a quarter of an acre. This is between the property now owned by the and the river. While initially expen-! sive (the total cost would be about $12 million) it would be cheaper over the long run I than either of the two previ- ouj proposals to relocate the car yards in Cambridge. Better, faster service will be provided for passengers (about 3000 inbound daily) of the trolley line. There will be no need of transferring, as now, at Ashmont.

The Mattapan station will be rebuilt, and two new ones will be built at Butler Dorchester and Central Milton. (The other four stations will be eliminated. These are at Cedar Grove, Milton, "Valley rd. and Capen st.) At the outset some 102 cars would be stored overnight at the new Mattapan facility. But as the rapid transit extensions to Brain-tree and further to the south, and to Alewife Brook and further to the north become realities, the number kept at Mattapan would be reduced.

THIRD TRY The sought unsuccessfully last year to create the new facility first at its Cod-man Yard and later near the Butler st. station, both in Dorchester. Cusick said Thursday that after a thorough examination of all possible alternate sites, including Savin Hill and the New Haven Railroad yards at Dover relocating the Bennett-Eliot facility at Mattapan "clearly presented the best solution."

Cusick asserted that the noise level at Mattapan after the change should not be appreciably higher than at present, since the rapid transit cars are only about six years old, whereas the trolleys are nearing the end of their useful life. Money for construction of the Mattapan extension would be made available by allocating funds intended for the Southwest Corridor proj- ect.

No new legislation would be required only approval by the Advisory Board. SUFFOLK ammond Organ 1 7 Warehouse 84 WINCHESTER STREET NEWTON HIGHLANDS WAREHOUSE OPEN 7 P.M. TO 10 P.M. EXCEPT SAT. I A.M.
