Special Dispatch to The Star.
ANNAPOLIS. Md. July 19.-Walter
e. Quenstedt, Republican four-day in
cumbent in the mayoralty Office, was
given the decision over his opponent.
Charles E. Chance, Democrat, by a one
vote margin to climax the battle Of the
recount last night.
A committee consisting Of five MEM
bers of the city council revealed that
967 ballots were cast for Quenstedt and
966 for Chance. 1t was only in the
fourth ward that the recount proved
advantageous to the Democratic can
didate.
The recount resulted following the
city elections a week ago when, after
Quenstedt was adjudged winner. the
Democrats decided that since no Demo-
crat had served as mayor since 1928,
such thing was abnormal and could
have only occurred through a mistake.
Chance announced, then. that he
would request recount, while in the
meantime Quenstedt took the oath of
Office. The case was taken to the courts,
where Chance was granted his appeal
for second count
A committee of five was selected for
the recount, while armed guards stood
over the ballot boxes. Mr.. Quenstedt.
in the meantime, went about his duties

ARLINGTON COUNTY
TO UNITE PROJECTS
Chamber of Commerce. De-
cides to Concentrate on
Consolidated Program.
BY LESTER N. INSKEEP,
Staff Correspondent of The Star.

CLARENDON, Va, July 19.-Belev-
ing that more can be accomplished
through effort concentrated upon pro-
gram of two or three projects than upon
the Is subdivisions suggested for con-
Sideration, the board of directors of the
Arlington County Chamber of Com
merce, at its fortnightly meeting last
night, authorized the president, Keith
A. Brumback, to appoint a program
committee of five persons to draft a
schedule from what they consider the
more vital problems confronting the
county and arrange for their completion
within periods of 60 to 80 days.
VIII Study Suggestions.
Under the plan adopted last night
the committee, of which Brumback and
the executive secretary, P. P. Wood
bridge, will be ex officio members, will
study the suggestions received from
Chamber Of Commerce members and
from the civic associations as to Ave
year program Of development. They are
then to select the problems considered
most vital and recommend them at the
next meeting of the board for immedi-
ate attention.
From the discussion preceding the
resolution authorizing the special COM
mittee it is believed that the problem
of sewers will receive the first considera-
ton Of the chamber as a task that re-
quireS immediate and concentrated eff
fort. The question of the establishment
Of sanitary district boundaries Is now
before Judge Howard w. Smith, and is
scheduled for a decision on July "a. If
the court reaches a definite decision at
that time the committee will be able to
recommend definite course of action
at the next meeting.
Bond Issues Necessary.
Inasmuch as one or more bond issues
will be required, depending upon
whether the court sets up the county
as single sanitary district or divides it
into several separate districts, 1t is be-
lieved that the chamber can accom-
plish much in the way of educating the
people as to the necessity Of voting for
the bonds.
While the coming of the county is we'll
under way, it was pointed out at the
meeting that much remains to be done
in which the chamber can be of as
sistance, and that this will also be
brought to a conclusion within the next
go or 80 days, the time suggested for
the completion of the first problems to
be considered.
The Chamber of Commerce is
half of the funds with which
this work is being done and the direc-
tors are anxious to lend their assistance
in bringing it to a satisfactory conclu-
sion, especially with regard to the
adoption of the final coming ordinance.
just what the trade body will do in
the matter of the establishment of a
in the county, one of the
matters considered as of major i'm
portance by the civic organizations, has
not yet been minated It is believed, :

work of the county can best be handled
by the civic federation, such as the
