UPI Telephoto onorail LOS ANGELES I UPI) This megalopolis has a king-size trans it headache but a monorail sys tem, costing a relatively modest $123 million, could provide relief, according to an industrialist. Sixten Holmquist, president of the Wegematic Corp., asserts his firm could build a monorail which could be financed out of the fare box without a tax subsidy. The Metropolitan Transit Au thority (MTA), a public agency which operates major buslines in this area, has shown interest in Holmquist's plan. v Holmquist's claim that a mono rail system would not require any tax support is calculated to meet with the approval of property own ers and others interested in fight ing tax increases. Engineers Are Skeptical Some MTA engineers are skep tical about Holmquist's plan but they don't want to commit them selves publicly as being against it until he has had a full hear ing. itolmqiflst made his announce ment on the monorail shortly aft STAR By CLAY R. ytra MAR Your Daily According 1- 3-14-21 To deveipp message for Thursday, read words corresponding to numbers of your Zodiac birth sign.

Oregon Seen As Relief er the MTA fell flat on its face when it suggested that a special property tax be levied to finance a 58-mile combination subway and surface train system costing $649 million. The MTA wanted the state legislature to earmark 15 cents as a maximum on each $100 assessed valuation to provide the cash. Property owners howled and the MTA withdrew its proposal, call ing it a "mistake." As a result Holmquist received a pleasant reception when he of fered his tax-free $123 million monorail plan. He said a mono rail is less expensive to construct than a subway or double - track elevated line. Holmquist says a monorail's construction cost is $3 million a mile, compared with the MTA's surface-subway system cost of $11 million. And he says he has financ ing available through a Wall Street investment firm. Would Link Center Out of the estimated $123 mil lion cost for the monorail, Holm quist said, about $14 million would be used to purchase rights-of-way.

Holmquist also said his group would submit a plan to pay the MIA s current indebtedness of ap proximately $41 million. The monorail concept is not new to Southern California. Walt Dis ney has one operating in his famed amusement park. The Disney mononail is one of the most popular and useful at tractions at Disneyland, accord ing to park engineer John Wise. Advantages of the monorail cited by both Wise and Disney, are that it is noiseless, it op erates on electricity and spews no smelly exhaust fumes. And absence of exhaust fumes would be a boom to smog-ridden Los Angeles. WASHINGTON 'UPI) - Sens.

House Rules Committee today with a certain amount of misgiv ing. Conservatives weren't out cele brating, either. But neither side had any plans; to contest it. Under plans all ut furmallv announced by House leaders, Rep. John Youih, D-Tex., will re place Rep. Homer Thornberry, D Tex., as a member of the pro administration bloc that frequent ly has been able to prevail the crucial committee by no bet ter than 8 to 7. President Kennedy T u e s d a v nominated Thornberry as a fed eral judge for the Western Dis-I Inct of Texas. In so doing, he rewarded Thornberry for past support, but at the same time. created a further problem for himself in the closely divided rules group. The rules committee normally decides whether bills recommend ed by other committees are routed on to the House for a vote. Its yes or no can mean lifd or death for controversial bills. I Speaker John W. McCormack, D-Mass., let it be known lie had picked another Texan to fill Thornberry's crucial rules seat, and word was passed among members that Young was the man. In selecting Young, McCor mack obviously acted in the be lief Young could be counted on in a pinch to support the lcader- mp even in the face of adverse local interest. Thornberry, though he some-l times voted against the adminis tration both in the committee and on the House floor, was a close friend of the late Speaker Sam Rayburn and became a trusted leadership lieutenant in the cru cial rules spot. Some liberals pointed to Young's mixed record of admin istration support heretofore and wondered whether McCormack had made the right choice. Conservatives, who saw their long domination of the commit tee shattered when the group' in 1961 was enlarged from 12 mem bers to 15, (iguced that McCor mack knew what he was doing. Their assumption was that he. had exacted a pledge of support Irom Young.
