FOR EVACUATION
PARIS (TJP) The building of a
complete network of autostrades In
the Paris region is contemplated by
authorities.
There are two basic aims, first and
for the time being the most impor
tant, to facilitate the spreading out
of the Paris population, which daily
Is becoming more dense; the second,
to facilitate transportation In event
of war.
The plan consists of two concentric
circles of highways, one directly
around Paris and the other within
a radius of approximately 22 miles,
joined together by five Intersecting
autostrades. - -
Each autostrade will consist of four
distinct roadst two center highways
for one way traffic, each 27 feet
wide, which will be reserved for fast
traffic, and two parallel roads for
slower traffic. The former will be
virtually straight, avoiding all towns
una crossings. Crossroads either will
pass underneath or above. They have
also been planned so that no hill will
exceed a five degree grade. The
pnralllel roads will Join up with all
crossroads. The total width reserved
is" 100 yards, the roads being sep
arated from each other by a strip of
grass.
The same system will be applied
to the outside circular highway and
no corner on this road will be sharp
enough to make it necessary for cars
going under 60 miles an hour to
Slow down.
The circular road around Paris will
be a single highway averaging 15
yards wide. It is already partly fin
ished and all dangerous crossings
likewise are avoided by means of un
derground passages.
The strsteglc importance of the
roads is to facilitate the evacuation
cf the Paris population. It has been
pointed out that France neod not
build special strategic roads to the
frontier like so many other countries
have done, as ordinary roads leading
to the frontier are straight and wide
enough to permit easy and rapid
transport. But the question of rapid
evacuation of the French capital has
been raised many times as roads lead
!nn through the Paris suburbs are
nirrow and dangerous, owing to the
numerous cross onds. With the pres

BRITISH FOOD SHIPS
RUN REBEL BLOCKADE
TO RELEVE BASQUES
(By the Associated Press)
Joyous Basques cheered the arrival
of three British food ships at Bilbao
today while six Insurgent air raids
dumped more than 50 bombs on the
besieged city.
Government and Insurgent pilots
battled over the city as the cargo
boats, having run the attempted In
surgent blockade in the Bay of Bis
cay, docked with 6,100 tons of pro
visions for Bilbao's starving popula
tion. Insurgent shrapnel crashed In
Madrid for the twelfth successive
day of an intensive bombardment. It
added at least a dozen casualties to
the more than 250 already killed and
the hundreds already injured.
Besieging Spanish Insurgents driv
ing on Bilbao reported today they
had captured four villages In moun
tainous valleys 20 miles southeast of
the Basque capital.

COURT PLAN HEARING
WASHINGTON, April 23. (AP)
The senate judiciary committee was
as closely divided on the Roosevelt
court bill at the close of hearings
today as It was at the start of testi
mony seven weeks ago.
Leaders of both sides, while ex
pressing confidence, acknowledged
that a group of uncommitted Dem
ocrats held a balanco of power in the
committee.
Indications were that some In this
group would seek to force compro
mise by adding one or two Instead
of a maximum of six Justices to the
supreme court.
Seven of the 18 on the committee
were recorded In opposition and six
In favor of the bill. The five yet
to commit themselves are Senators
MsCarran (D., Nev.), McOlll (D..
Kan.). Hatch (D., N.M.), O'Muhoney
(D., Wyo.), and Hughes (D., Del.)
Consideration of the bill in a clos
ed session will begin Tuesday,
Speaking of testimony by more
than 80 witnesses, Senator Van Nuys
(D., Ind), an opponent, said:
"It has been very educational for
the general public but hasn't chang
ed a senator's vote. I think we have
addition of six Judges licked, but I
am not so sure about two. A lot of
senators who won't vote for six will
vote for two."
