Board Tuesday by the board of coun-

Much of the meeting was given

county school construction program,
during which two divergent views
were presented by representatives of
two county parent-teacher associa-
tons.
Refusal of the board to ISSUE
bonds authorized by the State Legis-

gram was depored in a resolution
presented by delegation from the
Bethesda Parent Teacher Association,
while a spokesman for the Montgom-
cry Blair High School Parent

Town Divides On
Suitable Location
For u. S. Building
Two Petitions Circulated, One
For Fields Corner, Other
Downtown

Rockville is all agog over the loca-
ton of the new Federal Building and
Postoffice which was assured the town
early this Fall. The Government has
allotted $4,000 for the site anc
building and bids have been submitted
for the site ranging from $4,000 to
$4,000. Two petitions are being cir
culated.
One, the first petition circulated
favors downtown site. There are two
possible locations in that area, the site
now occupied by the Mullineaux- Mat
lock property, and the Continental
American Finance Co. property
known as DeLashmutt's garage.
The other petition favors the site
at the corner of Montgomery Avenue
and Washington street, known as the
Fields property and now occupied by
vacant home, The Sentinel Office and
the Pepco Building.
A number of prominent officials and
residents favor neither of these loca-
lions. The Peter property back of the
old courthouse has met with lot of
favorable comment. The majority
opinion, however, is that the govern
nlent will approve the Fields site pro-
viding the price can be reasonably ad-
justed in adding the Pepco property
in the deal.

PETITIONS ARE being circulated
urging the location of the new Rock
vile Postoffice in two different geo
graphical sections of the town. There
are arguments for both factions. But
some seem to overlook the problem
of future planning and civic develop
ment. While the writer will always be-
lieve that government money could
have been spent more wisely for 9TH
err crying purposes, he also believes
that there should be no alteration
over the site now that the postoftice
is assured. That has been the big
trouble in the past. Rockville has had
a chance to improve many times in
the last few years by taking advant-
age Of several propositions. But Lack
of cooperation, petty jealousies and
politics always stepped in. A notable
example is the failure to tear down,
obliterate and reconstruct Monkey
Run. So, we think that postofice in
spectors have caught pretty good
picture of conditions in Rockville and
-as they are furnishing the money
they should have the final word. The
Federal Building should be pleasing to
the eye, conveniently located, fitting
in with the general plan of the town
for the future and dedicated to the
needs of the people who seek adequate
mailing and other Federal services.
THE U. s. COURT OF APPEALS
has ordered the removal of abandoned
street car tracks on certain right-of-

mean shorter life to the street pave
ment and a continuously increasing
expense for the maintenance and re-
pairs Of the street; furthermore, the
tracks constitute dangerous and in
convenient traffic hazard. Whether
