American engineers for the future.
Experts are paying close atten.

noise and sound has become just
as important as that of air-condi.
tioning and heating, according to
Harold R. Berlin, of New York,
speaking before a gathering of
engineers here last night.
Too much noise in an office, he
said, will make man nervous, rails

boss shouts at his Stenographer,
making her ill from nervousness.
The eject is a lowering of eff

DR.. Tabler Proposes
Levy By Counties
To Clear Deficits
Urges Action AS Alternative OF
Using Gas Tax To
Meet Debts

Inclusion in the counties regular
tax levies Of provision for wiping out
deficits in county roads funds is pro-
posed by DR.. Homer E. Tabler, chair
man of the State Roads Commission.
Tabler, in a letter to Perry Boswell,
president of the Prince Georges Board
| of Commissioners, said the commits
sion believed the greatest financial
benefit would accure to the counties
eff debt service on existing road obi
gations-equal to that paid from
county funds by this commission dur
ing the past two years-is provided
in the regular county tax levy rather
than to satisfy these obligations
from gasoline tax receipts"
| The letter was made public by
Commissioner Joseph H. Blandford Of
Upper Marlboro, chairman of a con-
ference of representatives of six
counties held in Baltimore last week
to consider ways and means of wip-
ing out deficits in county road funds.
Tabler's letter also said that "the
commission, az sound fin
ancial policy, mas It to pur-
chase land for rights Of way re-
quired. = Roads will be construct
ed, therefore, only on those locations
where the required rights Of way are
made available to the commission"
State Senator B. Latimer Of
Broomes Island, Calvert County, who
attended the session, said he favor
ed bond issue to eliminate Calvert's
road fund deficit of $4,000 rather
than tax levy.
By issuing bonds, he said, ths
deficit could be wiped out over a long
period of years, rather thar requir-
Inf taxpayefs to pay additional iev--
les at one time.
The conference adjourned without
adopting definite policy on elimi-
mating deficits in Dorchester, Mont
gomery, Prince Georges, Howard
Talbot and Calvert.
Blandford said the primary prob
lem was to keep up maintenance
operations on road work and at the
same time find way to eliminate
deficits.
Tabler's letter said "the prepare
ton of sound construction plan
which will be projected over a PEI
Rod of three years, or to September
80, 1888, will involve, necessarily, an
extensive financial study of the funds
administered by the commission for
road maintenance, debt service and
construction of new roads in your
county"
