the events preceding the abattcir fight
The oil company sought permit for
the erection of series Of tanks. with
some wharfage facilities. The permit
was fought by citizens before the

protests. granted the necessary permits.
sion. One of the interesting features
Of the affair is that the county's zonins
body Is obviously impotent and clothed
with only a semblance of authority
The county supervisors can override its
decisions at will.
The county authorities make the
point that the county needs the addi-
tional revenue that would come from
taxing such commercial enterprises as
represented by the oil company. They
contend further that the Washington
Mount Vernon Boulevard will take the
countys water front south Of Key
Bridge. and there is no good reason
why the county should surrender Its
remsinipg rights above Key Bridge.
On the other hand, 1t Is to be re-
rnen,bered that the Federal Govern
nent's Jurisdiction extends TO the high
water mark on the Virginia side Of the
river. The Government presumably re-
tains authority as to what docking ia
