FALLS CHURCH.
SEWER TAKE
ARE ASSAILED
Citizens Plan Protest
: And Court Test

FALLS CHURCH, Va, Sept. 7.
Citizens here today were preparing
to protest the basis Of assessments
for the towns new $135,000 sewer
system, as being discriminatory
against non-property owners and
owners of small property.
Objections are to the 50 monthly
charge for each householder, re-
sardless Of the size of his home
or of the fact that he might be
renting it, and to the varying rates
for commercial establishments,
which run from 81 monthly for
stores and restaurants to So for
automobile laundrieS.
Even occupants of apartments
must pay a $3.50 charge per
month.
The DIRECTORS consensus Of opin-
ion is that large land owners will
enjoy an increase in the value OF
their holdings without paying for
it.
Although no concerted action
has been launched to date, at least
one citizen is contemplating
court test. Others expect to air
their protests at the next meeting
of the town council.
