CUMBERLAND AIMS
TO ANNEX SUBURBS
Action to Be Taken to Maintain
Towns Position in Com
ing Census.
special pispatch 70 The star.


CUMBERLAND, Md, December a.
The mayor and council are expected to
pass an ordinance tonight calling for
a special election this month to de-
eide on the annexation Of suburban
sections about three-fourths of a mile
all around the city. This would take in
the Mapleside, Dingle, Bedford Road,
Linderville and other sections with
1854 homes and a population Of about
5000.
Action is necessary this month in
order for the proposed annexed Sec
tionS to be counted in the city popula-
States census, which starts next April,
tabulates the populations of cities as of
January l, 1880. Action in this mat
ter has been spurred because of the
prospect of Hagerstown succeeding
Cumberland as the second city of Mary
land unless these suburbs are annexed.
Hagerstown. it was pointed out, has
taken in much territory In the cor
porate limits since 1920.
Cumberland's population as given by
the 1920 census was 29,839. The Census
Bureau in 1923 estimated the popula-
ton of Cumberland at 35.708. The
population today with suburbs pro-
posed to be taken in Is estimated at
AZ, 900.
The mayor and council held q spe-
cial session last evening, when Chamber
OF Commerce representatives made a
request for the holding of the special
election this month, probably the
18th or 10th, to decide on the
annexation plan. The last Legislature
passed an act giving authority to hold
such an election. The Chamber of
Commerce offered to finance the cost
Of the special election.

DISTRICTS UNITE
IN FLOWER SOCIETY
Maryland, Virginia and
Washington Represented
on List of Officers.

The annual meeting of the National
Capital Dahlia and Iris Society, held
at the Carlton Hotel, was featured by
the election of officers, when iris ana
dahlia enthusiasts from nearby sections
OF Maryland, Virginia and the District
OF Columbia were given equal repre-
Sentation on the official staff to carry
on the work of the organization during
1880.
Joseph A. Herbert. jr, of the District
OF Columbia was elected president; Au-
brey b. Carter of Montgomery County,
Md. first vice president: Mrs. M. l..
Payne of Arlington County, Va, second
vice president. and L. w. Holland OF
Arlington County, who served as secre-
tary-treaSurer two years ago, was IT,
called to act in that capacity again
during 1880.
The National Capital Dahlia and Iris
Society was organized several years apo
for the purpose of stimulating interest
in and promoting the culture and de-
velopment of the dahlia and iris; to
assist in establishing a standard OF
nomenclature and test out new varie-
ties and give them such recognition as
their merits deserve; to disseminate III
formation relating to these flowers: to
secure uniformity in awarding prizes at
flower shows and to give exhibitions
annually where the hundreds of ANA
teur growers and specialists in these
varieties of flowers in the National Cap
1tal area could periodically meet III
friendly competition for the most per-
feet specimens.
One of the ambitious undertakings Of
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-12-02

the society upon its organization was
the establishment of an iris test gar
den. At the outset Of the project the
society announced:
1T seems most fitting that this gar
den should embellish the grounds OF
our national shrine, Walter Reed Hos
pital. Here those who have suffered
and bled that civilization and culture
might still be ours can look upon the
latest creations of the iris world ana
enjoy their etherealness and beauty"
The dream of the society that this
iris test garden be established has come
true. With the cooperation of the
leading iris specialists of the United
States this beauty spot near the Six
tenth street entrance to Walter Reed
Hospital grounds has been created, and
at the height of the blooming season in
May of each year is the mecca for
thousands of visitors.
The present planting, brought to
completion through the untiring efforts
of j. M. r. Adams of Takoma Park,
past president of the society, consists
of 200 plants in approximately $50 va
rietieS. These are planted according to
color, correctly labeled, and visitors de-
string to compare varieties during the
Towering season can easily do so.
The society'S annual iris show, which
is held in Washington in May of each
year, has become an event of more than
local Importance. The American Iris
Society. with which the local body is
affiliated, each year awards silver and
bronze medals for the most attractive
exhibits. The American Dahlia Society
likewise annually awards medals at the
Fall exhibition, which is devoted to the
dahlia.
Plans are already under way by the
new administration for the Forthcoming
Spring exhibition, which promises to be
one of the most comprehensive displays
of the iris ever staged by the society.

Grandniece Brought Action tt

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, December 1.-THE suit
of Josephine Metcalf Warfield, 9, of
Trenton, N. j., to break the will of S.
Davies Warf1eld, who left an estate Of
over $5,000,000, mostly to found an old
woman's home, comes up for trial today
before Judge Stanton.
The girl, who was grandniece Of the
chairman of the board of the Seaboard
Air Line Railway, through her attor-
neys, alleges Warfield was not mentally
competent" when he drew up his will.
Trustees of the estate and the
trustees named for operating the old
Woman's home will defend the will as
written and filed. They lost the first
tilt in the contest when the Orphans
Court ruled the grandniece, as a pos
sible beneficiary if the will was declared
void, had the right to contest 1t.
There are indications the case will
be appealed by the loser, no matter
which way it may be decided by Judge
Stanton. Lawyers have been working
for months preparing testimony and
motions to be offered at the trial.

CITIZENS FIGHTING
HALP|NE GAS PLANT
Many Expected to Protest
at Planning Boards Ses-
sion on Wednesday.
BY WILLIAM ]. WHEATLEY.
staff Correspondence OF The Star.

BETHESDA. Md, December I'm
what is expected to be a vain attempt
to prevent the location of y domestic
gas-distributing plant adjacent to the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad tracks al
Halpine, several hundred yards east OF
the Rockville pike. in the vicinity of the
Congressional Airport, scores of persons
are expected Wednesday night at the
county building here to appear before
the Maryland-National Capital Park
and Planning Commission to protest its
proposed establishment. Much bitter
ness has been caused in the section over
the proposed plant. and it has been
hotly contested from its inception, with
the application to the commission some
time ago for a rezoning of the prop
erty from residential to industrial. The
reZoning has been approved. and the
gas company already has placed some
of its distributing tanks and building
material on the site.
Adjourned Hearing.
The hearing scheduled for next week
is an adjourned one from last week, fol-
lowing protest by F. Barnard WEIGH,
attorney, of Rockville against proceed
ing in the absence of Robert G. Hilton,
one of the members of the commission.
Mr.. WEIGH wanted all of the Montgom-
cry County members of the commission
present. He represents certain Of the
proteStantS against the location.
The proceedings Wednesday night,
which will begin at 7 o'clock, because
of the expectation of long list of
speakers, are for the purpose of hear
ing protests against the location of such
plant in the industrial area. Under
the metropolitan district coming act
certain activities may be located in an
industrial zone as matter of right, but
others, classed as nuisance industries"
cannot be located without special per-
nit
There is little doubt, it was indicated
by county officials in position to know,
that the issuance of a permit will fol-
low the holding of the hearing. The
present hearing, it was plainly said, is
for the purpose of complying with the
law, and it was decided upon when the
county officials learned that the prop
erty owners in the vicinity were plan
ming to seek an Injunction in the Cir
cult Court to restrain the operators
from establishing the plant on the pro.
posed site.
Owners IncenSed.
Property owners In the vicinity are
highly incensed at the action of the
county commissioners in authorizing
the rezoning. and the formation Of the
Rockville Pike Citizens Association was
a direct result of this action of the
county governors. Several property
owners. it was said, have put their hold
ings on the market as a result of the
rezoning and because of the fear that
the location of the gas plant so clos .
to a residential community was highly
dangerous. 1t is on the ground of the
danger that the protestants will seek
to forestall its establishment.
Regardless of the outcome of the pro-
ceedings Wednesday night, it was said
that the opponents of the plant will
