Near Clifton Park
Community House Planned
Also at Former
Blair School

The Silver Spring Public Health
Lay Committee yesterday voted to
sponsor the establishment of a
health center at the former Blair
School on the Old Bladensburg road
near Clifton Park.
Mrs. Frank F. SMITH State chair
man of health for the Maryland
Congress of Parents and Teachers,
who is in charge of the project, said
today that it is planned to use the
building as community house as
we'll as for health purposes.
Unoccupied for nine years, the
building is in need of extensive re-
pairs, including installation OF elec-
trio lights, sewage, lavatories and
painting.
Present plans call for four rooms,
a small Office for the county health
nurse and diet kitchen. 1t is
hoped to have the rooms divided
with folding partitions so that the
building will be suitable for COM
munity purposes and large meetings
or parties.
Equipment for the dental clinic
will be installed in one room and
accommodations will be provided for
clinics to be held by physicians.
A number of persons already have
volunteered to assist in the project
The support of all local organiza-
tions will be sought, Mrs. Smith an
nounced.
Present quarters of the health
center in the County Building are

In Montgomery
Legal Technically
Regarding Ordinance
Is to Be Determined

Trial of the second alleged Zoning
violation taken to the Montgomery
County court since F. Byrne Austin
was appointed zoning administrator
for the MarylandNational Capital
Park and Planning Commission, to-
day was continued until September
4 pending determination of legal
technicality raised by defense
counsel.
Defendant is Arthur L. CARING,
who is charged with operating a
business in a residential B zone sit
uated in the rear of 405 Flower ave-
nue. and in the rear of 408 Green
wood avenue, Takoma Park The
warrant charged Mr.. CARING with
operating market grocery business
there in violation of the county
zoning law.
Trial began Tuesday before Trial
Magistrate Ralph G. Shure in Sill
yer Spring and was scheduled for
completion today in Police Court in
Takoma Park.
However, Defense Counsel C. Ber-
nard Welsh raised q point Tuesday
as to whether the zoning ordinance
had ever been included in the min
utes of the county commissioners.
States Attorney Ben G. Wilkin-
son said that in 1928 the county
commissioners passed a zoning ordi-
nance the text of which was not
recorded in the commissioners rec
ords until 1882. Mr.. Wilkinson ex-
planned that in 1880 the commits
sioners passed an amending ordi-
nance which was not placed on the
record until 1882 The delay in
placing the ordinance on the record
is the point at issue.
Mr.. Caring was charged with vio-
lation of the 1880 ordinance.

Specisl Dispatch to The Star.

opeClS' DlSpalCn 10 lHS Quar-.
FAIRFAX, Va, Aug. 21.-Action
on a proposal by the Federal Gov
ernment to construct a recreation
center at Accotink was deferred yes
terday by the Fairfax County Board
of Supervisors until it is definitely
learned the Government has al
located the necessary funds for the
project and a location can be OBJ
tanned that will comply with local
zoning regulations.
All members of the board present
at the meeting expressed their will
ingness to cooperate in the project
which would. chiefly serve Fort
Belvoir. The center would cost ap-
proximately $4,000 and the county
would be expected to give the neces-
Sary land. Because of the rapid ex-
pansion at Fort Belvoir under the
national defense program need for
a recreation center in the area has
been stressed.
The board agreed to contribute
$l,120.45 to the Northern Virginia
Regional Defense Council for the
II months period ending June 30,
1912. Previously the supervisors
have given about one-fourth of this
sum. 1t was explained all counties
and cities in the area covered by the
council are being called upon to
assist financially in maintaining the
headquarters of the council in Alex
andria.
Trailer Restrictions Proposed.
commemorative Attorney Paul
E. Brown submitted proposed
amendment to the county zoning
ordinance intended to regulate
trailer camps and trailers in the
county.
The amendment would require
permits for the operation of trailer
camps or parks, and would prohibit
the parking of trailers anywhere but
in such parks. with the exception
that one trailer might be parked or
stored in an improved inclosed ga
rage or accessory building, but in
such case it could not be used as
living quarters or for the practice
Of any business.
Other stringent health and sani-
tary regulations are provided in the
amendment, including a require
ment that all trailer camps or parks
must maintain register for all
occupants of the camp.
Any such camps in operation at
the time the amended ordinance be-
came effective would be required to
conform to its requirements within
go days.
Park Offer Submitted.
The matter was referred to the
County Planning Commission for
study and recommendation.
The board approved applications
of Aubrey M. Hawkins and Matte
H. Hawkins for permit to operate
commercial hog farm in Centre
vile district on Clifton road, and
of Robert H. Quander to operate
trash dump on Quander road in
Mount Vernon district.
A committee consisting of Super
visorS c. H. Powell and John T.
Blincoe, and H. C. Moore, technician
of the Planning Commission, was
named to study an offer of Eakin
Properties, Inc, to give tract of
land for park purposes between
Little River pike and Lee boulevard
Under the terms of the offer. the
county would be required to main
tain the land as a park. The COM
mittee will report back to the board
at its meeting September II.

the 7 to 9 am. rush to work in
Washington is not a pleasant one.
Principal differences between the
road system worked out by the Park
and Planning Commission and that
submitted by the P. R. A. involve
width of roads and treatment of
intersections. Because of the an
ticipated additional traffic load of
10000 Army vehicles, P. R. A. found
it necessary in many cases to add
one or two lanes to the width of
the roads. For the same reason,
P. R. A. thought it advisable to put
in grade separations instead of cir
cles at key intersections.

Virginia highway system as whole.
Time Question Raised.
Some engineers maintain that Is
miles of roads meeting these speci-
fications cannot be built in the Ar
lington farm area within a year
They cited these reasons:
a. A great deal of privately
owned land will have to be ac-
quired, probably through con-
.demnation. This takes consid-
erable time.
b. Under normal conditions,
two construction seasons" or
summers, are necessary to the
completion of Is miles of four
and six-lane highways.
C. Speeding the work means
added cost, some say as much as
s5,00O,0O0 over the estimated s8,-
100000.
P. r. A. men are confident. how
ever, that the job could be done
within year. But what they do not
like to think about is what would
happen to normal traffic using road:
