the proposed district that section Of
the latter county not now in the
sanitary district, or that area be-
tween Seat Pleasant and Fort Foote

Oxon Hill and Spaulding districts.
The possibility of having repre-
sentatives on the commission from
the county at large and not wholly
from the planning district, which
must pay the taxes, has developed
wide protest from some citizens
and was made the subject of par

the amendments, although they were
offered by Senator Eugene Jones of
Kensington, by Delegate Burton L..
Ford of College Park, Prince Georges
County. and Delegate Kent Roberts

Ford Raises Objection.
Mr.. Ford said that he was directly
opposed to the amendment which per-
mitted this state of affairs. and that
the people of Prince Georges were
opposed to it. He said that he had
not learned Of 1t until the Senate had
adopted the amendments, and under
stood that the amendments being Of

Lee, according to Mr.. Ford, explained
to him that the provision was optional
