ROCKVILLE, Md, Feb. 4.-The
board of Montgomery county COM
missioners today prepared to pre-
vent establishment of ceme-

a jury trial of the case.
The suit to compel the county
commissioners to grant the COM

APARTMENT
z0NINGS

Proponents Of a housing devel-
opment in the vicinity of North
Capitol Street, Kansas Avenue
and the District line and repre-
Sentatives of citizens organiza-
tions engaged in a bitter vrebal
battle before the District Zoning
Commission today on the plans
for the development.
Berkeley L. Simmons, owner OF
the land, told the commission it
was his plan to build detached
homes in subdivision of the
tract, which he had planned.
Wants Apartment Zone
He added, however, that he was
uncertain whether the plan could
be carried out and, to protect his
investment, urged the commission
to zone the property so that two
story apartments might be erected
on the land.
1t was this latter proposal
which evoked spirited protests
from representatives of the Manor
Park and the Takoma Cd. c..
Citizens Associations. They OBJ
jected to apartments in the neigh
borhood, which is mainly resi-
Dental. They told the commission
that Simmons had declined to
enter a stipulation which would
bind him against construction Of
the apartment or four-family flats.

yesterday with As applications for
rezoning property in all sections

clude today.

battles against proposals of real
estate operators to have residen-
tial zonings changed SO as to
allow construction of apartment
buildings and multiple-family flats
in certain sections of the COM
munity. Spokesman for the resi-
dents, in some instances, told the
commission they fear that apart
ment construction would develop
into a "tenament" situation in the
sections.
