Fund For AEC Is Approved For New Headquarters
The House Public Works Committee backed a 9.6 million dollar plan to build an AEC headquarters about 20 to 30 miles from Washington in Maryland or Virginia. The move aims to consolidate AEC work now spread across four buildings and aligns with dispersal security policies urged by the President. If both committees approve, funds may be used to start construction without further action. AEC Chairman Lewis L. Strauss testified in a closed session as the panel voted to send the measure forward. A Frederick County site between Urbana and Hyattstown was noted as a possible location.
