robert altman standing by with traffic watch. robert: we have a metion.ly the huge water main break in the bethesda area north of n.i.h. in the recent hour, northbound the right lane allowed to get through. the reasoning is there is so much of a volume of traffic coming out of chevy chase, bethesda and points south out of georgetown they had to do something. so the right lane is getting by. southbound 355 is schult down as we look at if video from news chopper 7. this is the closure point on the southbound side below the beltway. the last place you can go is make the right turn. if you are in the left lane or the center lane you will have to make a u-turn, go back over toward the beltway and find your way. there are alternates route you can take for western avenue. they will jam up toward the area of connecticut avenue. that will be a major headache. another problem, southbound 95 and fredericksburg is shut down near u.s. 17 exit 130 because of a serious accident from earlier. that is the latest from the abc7 traffic center. back to you. alison: robert, t

altman, the department store in new york, to furnish the whole ground floor, the state floor, in bulkyou know, for a pretty good price, with reproductions. jackie got there after the election of 1960, was shown through it by mamie eisenhower. she was aghast. she said it looked like a statler hotel, which she did not mean as a compliment, meaning that it's sort of not very convincing reproductions. so, this mother of two, with other things to think about, took on what was this enormous project of raising a huge amount of money and also getting donations of furniture and art and artifacts. she wanted the white house to be the equivalent of the great houses in europe. she felt that for foreign leaders to come to the white house and have it look like a hotel that was in some cases threadbare and full of reproductions, it cast a bad light on the united states, and so, if you like the way the white house looks nowadays, we should thank jackie kennedy. swain: well, we've been telling people all along that our partners for the series are the folks at the white house historical association. be
