COUNSEL is ASKED
Arlington Firms Join County
Officials in Appeal to
Board.
I stan Correspondent Of The star.

~ stafY Correspondent of The Star.
ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE. Va,
September I4.-Onicials Of two South
Washington corporations and two
county oficials today joined in a
plea to the County Board for the i'm
mediate designation of counsel to pre-
sent the countys case in the District
Of Columbia Virginia boundary con-
troversy.
The corporation officials were s. J..
Solomon, vice president of the National
Airport Corp, owners of the Wash
ington Airport, and r. B. Swope, presi-
dent Of the Southern Oxygen Co.
County officials were Commissioner Of
Revenue Harry X. Green and Com
monwealth's Attorney Lawrence w.
Douglas. -.
Warn of Revenue Loss.
Unless the county is itself represent
ed before the commission, the defense
by the private property owners will be
greatly weakened, Solomon declared.
He claimed that practically all the
airport property Is claimed by the Gov
ernment. and that even If it only took
part, of the property, the site would
be destroyed as an airport.
His company. Solomon said, is pay
ing annual taxes to Arlington County
of $7,314, whereas the county has an
opportunity to secure efficient counsel
for only $500.
Both Solomon and Swope asserted
that the county would lose between
$35, 900 and $4,000 annually in taxes
If the Federal Government succeeds
IN acquiring title to all the land to
which it lays claim.
b Estimated S25,000 Loss.
Green informed the board that this
is the most important matter before
the board since the last annexation
proceedings instituted by the City Of
Alexandria. The loss in revenue to
the county would be not less than
$25,0o0 annually, he said, and added
1t would require erection Of at least
500 homes to Offset the loss.
Again claiming it Is impossible for
him to give his full time to the matter,
Douglas renewed his request for the
employment Of special counsel.

Future Land Grabbing?

Prom the Milwaukee Journal
The recent Congress enacted the
so-called Taylor bill authorizing the
Secretary of the Interior to create
grazing districts on 10000, 900 acres of
the public domain in the West. The
measure was signed by President
Roosevelt on June ~, against the ad-
vice of many conservationists.
Those conservationists are suspicious
Of the Department of the Interior
not of the present department, but
because of its historical background.
Great public wrongs have been per-
petrated under Interior Departments
of the past. There were the oil and
coal land scandals of Alaska years
ago, there was Teapot Dome more
recently. there were land grabs by
railroads, and range, mining and
homestead grabs Of one kind or an
other.
So conservationists. reading in the
Taylor bill that some 80 900 900 acres
Of the public domain are to be turned
over to the Department of the Interior
for administration, remember the past
and are, skeptical of the future They
have, probably, no cause for worry at
this time That, perhaps, Is how
President Roosevelt felt when he
signed the Taylor bill. with its several
amendments which open the way for
favoritism toward special interests.
