Low Water Charge Sought.

Efforts Of the Suburban Sanitary Com
mission of Maryland to get District of
Columbia water for Maryland residents at
rates lower than are charged District con.
sumers have been renewed by 7. Howard
Duckett. chairman Of the commission, il
was learned Saturday.
The question OF supplying District water
to nearby Maryland communities has been
aeitated for years and resulted in enact
ment by Congress in 1918 of a measure
proposed by the District Commissioners
authorizing the District to supply the
Maryland communities with water.
Agreement as TO rates and conditions
was sought at conference between Mary
land and District officials last fall, but no
decision was reached.
Congress, the Maryland commission chair
man said, never intended ito load on the
citizens Of Maryland any pro rata Of the
cost of maintaining all Of the Federal and
municipal activities in the District in so
far as it related to the water rates." and
insisted that Maryland consumers be given
District water at lower rates than was
charged District residents District officials
refused to agree to that and the matter
was left undecided,
The revived question. after a study BY
Maj. D. A, Dawson. Assistant Engineer
Commissioner. has been returned to the
District Commissioners with the recon-
mendation that Corporation Counsel VIM.
W. Bride be asked for an opinion as 10
whether there is authority in law to Give
lower or different rates to Maryland con.
sumers and. if there is such authority.
what is the basis which should be used
for computing the Maryland rate.
Roland M. Brennan. chief clerk Of the
Engineering Department, is preparing a
report for the commissioners dealing with
the intent Of Congress at the time the law
was enacted and the intent of the com.
missioners when they recommended the law
TO Congress.

Action OF Police Asked In Tag
Case.

Following the decisions of Judges Robert
B. Peter and John S. Newman in the Cir
cult Court here, last week. regarding the
circumstances under which residents of
Maryland may use within the State auto
mobiles belonging to their nonresident
owners without having such cars equipped
with Maryland license tags, and which
operators of the kind are required to have
Maryland chauffeurs permits, States At
torney Robert Peter addressed commu-
cation to Chief of Police. Alive A. Monkey,
calling attention to the opinions and indi-
eating that he would expect the police to
enforce the laws accordingly.
The opinions are of widespread interest
and are final. as there is no appeal from
decisions of the Circuit Court in such cases
Judges Peter and Newman decided that
residents of Maryland violate the law il
they operate their nonresident employers
automobiles within the State for their per
sonal use, as well as on business for their
employers, If such cars are not equipped
with Maryland license tags Such drivers
are owners within the meaning of the law
and therefore do not have to obtain Mary
land chauffeurs permits. the court held
The decisions we're rendered in cases
against I. Brooke Amiss, Of Chevy Chase,
an employe of Galliher & Huguely of Wash
ington, who was found guilty in the Polio =
Court here and fined Sill and costs in each
case by Judge samuel Riggs.
The other cases decided were AGAINST
Robert F. Carter, of Garrett Park, and Kea-
meth Mcintosh of Takoma Park. employees
of the Potomac Electric Power Company
of Washington.
Carter was recently found guilty by Judge
Riggs because he did not have Marylan
license tags on car of the company which
he used in this county in conveying him
between his homs and place of employ
ment. and Mcintosh, who was also con-
victed by Judge Riggs. used a car of the
company in the county for similar pur
pose and also drov it in the county OF
company business. Neither used a CON.
pany car in the county for personal rea
sons. The Police Court fine in each cast
was Sill and costs, fine of more than $lC
being necessary to make an appeal pos
sible.
1t was shown that both Carter and Nc
lntosh had Maryland chauffeur licenses
which the court held was proper
The cases was brought to test the ques
tons involved and were decided in boil
courts on agreed statement of facts. Hac
the cases not been intended to have the
Circuit Court pass upon the questions
some of Judge Riggs decisions would, h
indicated, have been different.
