District, although on the Virginia side
of the river.

MONTGOMERY BILL
COMES UP TONIGHT
County Financial Measures
to Be Presented to State
Legislature.
BY a star Correspondent of The star.

BY Stan Correspondent OF The Star.
SILVER SPRING, Md, January o.
Legislation for refunding the school
and road construction In Montgomery
County during 1928 will be offered to
the Maryland Legislature tonight, when
bills will be introduced by the Mont
gomery County delegation to authorize
the necessary bond issues, it was said
today by e. Brooke Lee, Speaker Of the
House of Delegates. While the figures
have not yet been completed, 1t was
said that the authorization would be
for about 100000.
This money Is to cover the final
balances on the unprecedented school
construction of the past year, when
practically every community was given
a modern building and also for the
roads that have been improved during
the same period.
The measures are expected to have
smooth sailing on both houses. as the
Montgomery members Of the House
of Delegates, including Speaker Lee,
George L. Edmonds Of Rockville, Rich
ard H. Lansdale of Sandy Spring and
Harvey j. White Of Dickerson and State
Senator Eugene Jones OF Kensington.
have pledged themselves to support the
measure.
Under the system OF working in the
State Legislature, where the delegation
in either house supports a measure, 1t
is not interfered with in any way by
the delegates from other counties. A
vote Of the county delegation on a
measure affecting its county Is followed
by a favorable vote by all Delegates and
Senators.
The real split in the Montgomery
County legislation at this session will be
on the proposed bond issue Of $4,000,
providing additional funds for the pur-
chase of land and for the construction
of a modern courthouse and jail for
Rockville. Senator Jones has expressed
himself as opposed to this additional
bond issue on the ground, he says, that
he is interested in keeping the county
tax rate down. On the other hand,
figures compiled by Berry E. Clark,
clerk to the county commissioners,
brought forth a statement by that Of
fetal that the county can issue bonds
to the limit Of $l,750,000 without any
increase in the county tax rate.

Mouse i'm Radio

BY the Associated Press.

ROANOKE, Va. January a.
A certain pied piper Is said to
have saved a city from the
menace of rat intrusion, but 1t
took a radio engineer to discover
what happened to radio station
WDBJ. This trouble was tiny
mouse with, perhaps, an urge to
sing.
A huge organ was pealing its
songs in thunderous volume and
radio listeners were enjoying 1t in
soft-slippered comfort when a
series of squaks and shrieks came
through in disquieting combina-
ton. Reception was halted and
a cry of static" went up.
If the audience was electrified
by the efforts of the mouse, the
mouse was electrocuted. It's body
was removed from the condenser
and the program continued.

TAKOMA DIVISION
into WARDS ASKED.
League Asks Town Council
to Provide for More Rep
resentative System.
spec,., Dispatch to The star.


TAKOMA PARK, Md, January "a
Amendment of the town charter Of this
town Is sought in a petition presented
from the North Takon1a improvement
League to the Town Council at its
meeting last night, which would pro-
vide for the division of the town into
six wards. and the election OF one
councilman from each. At the pres
ent time the councilmen are elected at
large. 1t was explained that the new
method would insure representation for
each community or ward. and would
preclude at any time in the future any
one group getting control OF the coun-
ell. The matter was referred to the
ordinance committee for investigation
and report at the next meeting. Amend
ment of the charter will have to be
finally approved in legislation by the
General Assembly.
Some amendments to the charter
which we're reported favorably by the
council were the subject of a public
hearing last night, but no opposition
developed. The most important was
one providing salaries for the mayor
and members of the council. The
others are intended merely to clarity
some of the language in the present
charter. They will be sent to the
Legislature for approval.
Irving H. Ware, chairman of the po-
lice, fire and light committee, announced
that the new fire department building
would be completed in very short time,
and invited the council to hold its subse-
quent meetings in the auditorium of the
building.
The volunteer fire equipment will be
moved into the new location this week,
it was announced by Councilman Martin
F.. Iverson, who also said that formal
opening ceremony was being planned.
Petitions were received for number
Of sewer improvements ON Takoma and
Buffalo avenues, where, it was said, the
lines are, in some places, exposed.
Mayor Davis said that the matter would
be referred to Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission.
