Takoma Park Unit
Opposes Increase
In Gasoline Tax
D. C.-MoryIond Citizens
Association Hears Yohe
On County Government

Any increase in the present gaSo-
line tax in the District was op-
posed in e resolution adopted last
night at a meeting of the Takoma
Park ID. C.-MdJ Citizens Associa-
ton after Arthur F. Gordon de-
clared the proposed increase should
be dispensed with in view of the
rise in price of other commodities.
L. R. Grabill, vice president. re-
ported that the paving of Eastern
avenue, following its widening from
Laurel to Willow avenues, had been
completed, but could not predict
when the improvement of that sec
ton of Eastern avenue between
Whittier street and New Hampshire
avenue would be undertaken by the
District authorities.
An appeal will be made to Maj.
Edward j. Kelly. superintendent of
police. to give consideration to the
need for a proper apportionment of
personnel. The urgency of the traf
fic situation was discussed by Burt
w. Andrews and Mr. Gordon, who
spoke of the importance of more
foot patrolmen.
The resignation of Albert Roberts.
secretary of the association, was ac-
cepted and Miss Grace B. Holmes.
association president. appointed
Hardin Waters to fill the unexpired
term.
New members elected included
Ralph G. Stevens and P. D. Mac
Morris.
A county council. as provided in
the Brookings report to replace the
present board of county commits
sioners. was supported by H. S.
Yohe. former president of the Mont
gomery County Civic Federation,
who said that this would provide
for one representative from each
district in Montgomery County and
would result in better government.
He said that there alSo should be a
| county manager. to serve under the
council. He criticized the pyramid
ing of government in the county
and useless duplication of activities
and its administrative functions
Mr.. Yohe pointed out that the
superintendent of schools performed
AZ different functions, although he
/ commended that branch of the
/ government. He recommended a
county civil service commission of
three unpaid members. He deplored
/ the lack of interest on the part OF
citizens in the county and said all
legal jobs should be consolidated
under county solicitor.
The meeting was held in the
Takoma Park Branch of the WASH
ington Public Library.
