Montgomery County has about two

was the lack Of funds In Prince Georges

of Montgomery County placed $4,000
back of each pupil, while but $4,000
stood behind each pupil In Prince

at the present time, is expected TO con-
sumo most Of the time at the regular
meeting tonight Of the board of direc-
tors Of the Arlington County Chamber
Of Commerce.
The coming committee of the cham
Der is expected to make a report on
its progress. which is leading to def
mite plans for the immediate employ
nient Of coming engineer and an early
start on the work. The committee has
been In communication with an engi-
neer who will be able to handle the
work at reasonable figure.
VIII Discuss Billboards.
while he has not yet completed his
research work on the laws in force In
other communities throughout the
country. the executive secretary Of the
chamber. p. p. Woodbridge, is expected
to discuss the signboard situation with
respect to legislation that will regulate
their erection.
While there are counties and incor-
porated towns that have in effect strict
laws regulating the erection Of sign
boards, Woodbridge said today, there
IL not q State in the Union that has a
satisfactory law regarding them.
The United States Department Of
Commerce recently referred to the Mas
Sachusetts law regulating Signboards,'
Woodbridge said, but when he looked
into the matter he found that the Law
has been tied up in the courts for the
past four years and that there ID not
as yet an end in sight.
Favors Signboard Curb.
The Chamber of Commerce has gone
on record as favoring curb upon the
signs, but the only immediate relief
that is now apparent would be an ordi-
nance requiring each signboard to have
o license number to indicate that 1t has
been legally erected on permit granted
by the board Of supervisors.
Under one proposed plan license
number would be displayed upon each
billboard and those not bearing num-
Der could Immediately be destroyed.
The Chamber of Commerce sign
board committee, of which Frank G.
Campbell Is chairman, expects to use
the information gathered by Woodbridge
in an effort to put stop to the lining
of the State and county highways with
50 many billboards that it is dificult to
enjoy the natural scenery.
