The House bill provides that the
motorway shall be turned over to
the State Roads Commission when
the bonds are retired, to be op-
Grated as a free highway.
Interest Rate Raised.
The maximum interest rate for
the bonds, stipulated as 31a per cent
in the Senate bill, was raised to per-
init Az per cent In the House bill,
and the term of 20 years in the
Senate bill was extended to 80 years
in the House measure.
The question of when construction
would be stated and how long it
would take to build the motorway
was not raised in the House hear
ings.
The bill authorizing sale of liquor

ment that was calculated to raise
an additional $14,500 for the county.
The amendment consisted of an
increase from $500 a year to $3.50 for

Superhighway Bill
Nears Passage in
Maryland House
Proposed New Route
To Baltimore Backed
Unanimously in Report
BY BEN Fl. PEARSE,
Star Stan CORRESPONDENT.

ANNAPOLIS, March 26.-The
$30,0O0,000 superhighway between
Washington and Baltimore, ap-
proved last week by the Senate,
appeared headed for enactment to-
day as the House advanced the
measure to second reading after an
unanimous favorable report by its
Roads and Highways Committee.
AS a result of an open hearing
Monday and an executive session
yesterday by the House Committee,
many features of the bill to au-
thoriZe the State Roads Commission
to construct the eight-lane motor
way east Of United States High
way No. 1, the cost to be betrayed
by tolls, have been changed.
Delegate E. Brooke Lee of Mont
gomery County, a former chairman
of the State Roads Commission and
chairman of the Roads and High
ways Committee of the House, had
placed on each Delegates desk a
copy of the Senate bill with 18
amendments offered by the House
Committee as the favorable report
came up for consideration.
Route Not Definite.
While the route of the motorway
has not definitely been decided, he
told the delegates it is expected it
will start in the vicinity of Hyatts-
vile and end in the southeast Sec
ton of Baltimore. It's route prob
ably will pass through Government
property at Greenbelt and Fort
Meade.
He said that about 80 per cent of
the right of way would be through
Federal territory.
The House bill eliminates a Sec
tion which would permit retirement
of bonds issued for the proposed
motorway from revenues derived
from the SuSquehanna Bridge at
Havre de Grace, completed last year
with the aid of Federal funds.
Committee members expressed the
opinion that the hackers of the bill
should be willing to build the mo-
torway with revenues from tolls as
the only means of defraying the
cost, and should not be allowed

Bill Already Offered
To Provide SuitIand
Wafer Facilities
Senator Morbury AssoiIs
Statement of Official of
Sanitary Commission

By Staff Correspondent of The Star
ANNAPOLIS, March 26.-The site
of the Government Office buildings
at Suitland and the surrounding
area will be supplied with adequate
water and sewage facilities under
an amendment to a bill pending in
the Legislature, Senator Charles c.
Marbury, Democrat, of Prince
Georges County, said today.
Announcement by an official of
the Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission Monday that present
facilities constitute "a major def
cheney" in the Suitland site which
could be remedied only through
quick action by property owners in
the neighborhood because of the
closeness of the end of the legisla-
tive session drew a quick reply from
Senator Marbury.
Bill introduced.
"A bill to extend the limits of the
sanitary district to the Seabrook
area already has been introduced
and is pow in the hands of the
Prince Georges delegation in the
Evening star., 1941-03-26
House, where three amendments are
being prepared" Mr.. Marbury said.

House, where three amendments are
being prepared" Mr.. Marbury said.
Moreover, II the official who can
nounced the deficiency is the per-
son believe it is, he knew perfectly
well that the Suitland area was one
of those to be included by the
amendments, the other two being
Forestville and Parkland.
The only motive I can conceive
for such an announcement at this
particular time is to try to high
pressure a neighborhood into COM
ing into the sanitary district, or to
try to block the project and have
it located In some other county than
Prince Georges"
Opposition Withdrawn.
The Prince Georges Senator ex-
planned there was no need for try
ing to high pressure anybody into
coming into the sanitary district
because the opposition voiced by
residents of the Suitland area on
several occasions in the past has
bCCll WAhidi avn 90 lCoult VI Vic
Government office building project.
He said:
"The objection expressed to hav-
ing Suitland annexed to the sani-
tary commission district was that it
was too sparsely populated and i'm
position of the 7-cent tax for water
and sewers in an area as yet largely
undeveloped would be hardship on
the property owners.
Nov that the Government Office
building is reality instead of mere
ly hope, their objections have been
withdrawn. This area will need wa
ter and sewers Immediately and will
get both services as rapidly as they
can be arranged"

Flu Warning Issued
lContinued from PaRe ~

CONTINUED from Page u
from people with colds, prompt at
tention to a cold, and prompt medi-
cal attention to all respiratory in
fections.
Use of Vaccine Studied.
The Committee on Public Health
Education of the State Medical As
ISOLATION states that experiments are
now being carried on among certain
special groups with vaccine for the
prevention of flu, but this is not
yet ready for general use. The doc
tors also froWn on the practice OF
the victim sticking it out" on their
feet, stating that bed rest and good
nursing care are the main factors
in treatment.
They 60 on to say these factors
"can be supplemented by sedatives
and preparations which will relieve
headache and body pains. But to
ignore all symptoms and attempt to
stay on your feet with the flu is to
invite serious illness and also to help
spread the disease to everybody you
meet.
Infectious During First Stages.
Flu is most infectious during the
stages of the first symptoms" they
point out further, land nothing is to
be gained by associates at work or
school or by the victim himself if he
tries to remain on his feet.
''The people who pride themselves
on sticking it out regardless of how
they feel are the ones who contribute
the greatest numbers to the death
rolls from the infectious disease"
1t is often difficult to differenti-
ate between a cold and the flu, ac-
cording to this bulletin, though fever
and exhaustion, all out of proportion
to other symptoms and to the length
of the illness, is common charac-
teristic. In either case good care
promptly given will save time, money
and lives, and such care is important
even when, as this year, the pre-
vailing type seems to be mild. Even
mild attacks of flu are likely to give
rise to severe secondary infections
and, furthermore, epidemics some
times gather virulence as they move
along.

Skating Rink Popular Place.

The first of the week the skating
rink west of the school was likely
in as good condition as it is possible
to get it. The flood light has been
erected on special poles so the night
skating is as enjoyable as in the day
time. However, the school children
just naturally cover the place when
it is so conveniently located, but
they not only enjoy it, but also dc
much of the maintaining.
A group of them are real early
birds and the new or drifting snow
is removed every morning before
nine o'clock. incidentally, it is well
to remember that the rink is for pub
lie use free of charge. There is a
comfortable warming house at the
south end of the rink.
