ROAD FUND PROBE
TO Be SWEEPING
MARYLAND Senate Prepares to
Join With House in Short
age Investigation.

STATEHOUSE, Annapolis, Md, jan
uary 23.-Maryland'S State Senate Is
preparing to join with the lower house
of the General Assembly in search
ing investigation of the populations In
the State Roads Commission forces. 1t
was the consensus of opinion of ad-
ministration leaders that the Senate
would not attempt to obstruct the plans
already laid by the House of Delegates
for thorough and complete lnvestlga-
ton of the methods of the highway de-
partment which permitted the pecula-
tons already brought to light by two
grand jury Investigations.
The plan as laid down in conferences
between Senate and House leaders, and
which is expected to result in definite
action before the session adjourns late
this afternoon, is for the Senate to
pass resolution providing for COM
prehenslve investigation of the high
way department by a joint committee of
the State Legislature, and to provide for
the employment of the necessary coun-
sci, clerks, StnographerS and other help
and for the furnishing by the State of
all official papers found necessary in
the investigation.
Immediate Action Planned.
Just as soon as the resolution is re-
ceived in the House-and this probably
will be done before adjournment this
afternoon in accordance with plans laid
down today-it will be brought up for
immediate consideration under a sus-
pension of the rules and concurred in.
1t is now planned that the Senate will
have five members on the committee
and that the House will increase its
grand inquest committee from Is to Is
and give each a one-third vote in any
matters requiring this action. This will
give equal voting power to both the
Senate and House of Delegates. This is
necessary, it was explained, as this COM
mittee corresponds to what would be a
conference committee of the Federal
House and Senate.
There is an understanding at this
time that the Senate also will concur in
the action of the House In appointing
counsel and will NOT seek to add any
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-01-23

more on its own side. It was pointed
out that the attorneys invited to serve
bear the highest reputation in the State
and their employment, in itself, assures
most searching investigation into
every angle of the scandal. Employ
ment of any more counsel, 1t was added,
also would mean additional heavy ex-
pense and the same result can be
obtained by the counsel already asked to
serve.
Whether the House insurgents will
attempt to unload any more attacks
on the administration when the Sen
ate investigation resolution is presented
for immediate consideration, by seeking
to have it referred to committee, is
unknown. just what their next line
of attack will be, II they have any, is
being jealously guarded. The only out
break from them was on the floor last
night, when Daniel c. Joseph of Bal
timore City delegation, announced that,
as the oldest member of the Baltimore
delegation, he had been requested by
that delegation to say that there would
be a meeting of the city delegation
after last nights session. At this
point Francis A. Michel, second Bal
timore district, jumped to his feet and
said that If there was to be a meet
Ing 1t would be CaIled by the chairman
of the delegation. Clarence E. Phelps,
who was elected chairman of the dele
CATION at meeting at which the in
surgents refused to attend, said that
he had not called a meeting Of the
city delegation.
Delegate Robert I. Lednum, Demo-
crat and member of the House grand
inquest committee, from Pocomoke
City, Worcester County. rising to a
question of personal privilege last night.
took issue with Delegates Joseph and
Coburn for saying the members of the
committee were a bunch of Yes" men.
Mr.. Lednum said that he regarded ''yes"
men as those unfair to their constitu-
ents. dishonest and crooked. He was
confident there were no such men on
the committee. He alleged, on the floor,
that Joseph and Coburn were disap-
pointed politicians, who did not get
what they wanted; otherwise, he con-
tinued, the remarks would not have
been made.
Both delegates said they did not in
tend to attack any individuals of the
committee and apologized if they had
appeared to have insulted any one.
The State budget for the year was
introduced last night by Speaker Lee,
carrying funds for all of the State ac-
tivities, together with number of bills,
which were referred to appropriate
committees.

ROCKVILLE. Md. January o.
Montgomery County is to have a ZOO
acre cemetery, modern in every detail.
and one of the finest in this section
of the country, it is said, if plans of
a number of Washington and Mont
gomery County promoters do not mis-
carry.
Edward II. Jones and Harry M. Mar
tin, prominent realtors of this county
and Washington, appeared before the
County Commissioners here yesterday
and presented a petition, signed by
themselves and James D. Woodroe and
l.. E. PoGeet, asking the Commissioners
to issue permit to the petitioners to
establish and maintain cemetery on a
tract adjoining the property of the
Congressional Country Club. in Potomac
district, which, the petitioners repre-
Sented, they have contracted to buy
from George p. Sacks and others. The
property was formerly part of the
Montgomery County holdings of the
late Senator Brandegee of Connecticut.
1t is planned, so the petition sets
forth, to so lay out and improve the
tract that 1t will be place Of real

wise. to nearby property. The petition
further states that the project will be
so financed as to insure its perpetual
care
The request was referred by the
Commissioners to their legal adviser,
Cissel &c Woodland. for an opinion as
to the legal phases, and. If no OBJ
stacles are suggested by the attorneys,
a public hearing will, it is understood,
be arranged by the Commissioners to
hear protests, if any, against granting
the permit.
AS part of the tract is within what
is known as the Washington Metro
politan District of the county, a permit
from the Maryland National Park and
Planning Commission will, it is stated,
also be necessary.
Mr.. Martin in discussing the prof.
ect here yesterday declared that a
cemetery of this type was a great need.
He said the undertaking would involve
the expenditure of many thousands Of
dollars.
