VA. HALL FUNDS
IN DISPUTE

ASHTON HEIGHTS. Va, July
Discussing the distribution of
the funds raised from the sale of the
Clarendon Community Hall, Richard
l.. Eacho, declared il appeared to
him that the citizens in mass meet
ing should have a voice in how the
funds should be divided.
The funds used TO purchase the
building were raised from carvinais
in which the fire department played
a leading part. and 1t seems to me
that more equal division than the
81 500 out Of more than $4,000 in
hand should go to them,' Eacho
said
''In Ashton Heights, Lyon Park,
Clarendon and Lyon Village there
are hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of property which depends on
the Clarendon Fire Department for
protection. These communities
helped raise the money that pur-
chased the building and a modern
building should be erected from the
proceeds of the sale" he said.
With a reasonable division Of the
funds given to the fire department,
it is possible that the board of super.
visors will give favorable eonsidera.
ton to a plan to aid in the erection
of new firemen's hall, B. NJ. He'd.
rick, supervisor from Arlington dis.
trict. said today
The citizens Of th e community
should be satisfied and also should
know what is to be done with the
balance of the money" he said.
