About 20 Million

Bids ON the S750,000 Patuxent
River Dam above Laurel, Md, which
will double the water supply of the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
district will be opened at 8 pm. Oc-
tober %, Chief Engineer Harry R.
Hall announced today.
The contract is expected to be
awarded in time for work to be
started early in November. The
schedule calls for completion to i'm
pound spring rains by next March
and completion of the entire struc-
ture by next September.
The dam will be CTS feet long and
80 feet high, topped with a roadway.
The Green's Bridge road, from Sun
shine, 312 miles north of Ashton in
Montgomery County, to Clarksville
in Howard County, will be relocated
to use the new thoroughfare.
When completed, the dam will
impound 100000 gallons of water,
about double the present pumping
capacity of the sanitary district
facilities. The record consumption
this year was nearly 16;e0e, 600 GAL
Ions day during the dry weather
last May.
During the severe heat this week,
consumption went up to about TO-
600, 900 gallons a day, but fell yes
terday about 100000 gallons be-
cause of the cooler temperatures.
The new dam will make the sani-
tary district practically independent
of Washington supply, Mr.. Hall ex-
planned At present, the district gets
about two-thirds of its water from
the city.

Fees for Vehicles Usinq
Memorial Road Protested
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 9.-The
Virginia Conservation Commission
has protested action by the National
Park Service in imposing fees on
buses and sightseeing vehicles pass
ing over the Mount Vernon Memorial
highway. leading from Washington
through Alexandria to Mount Ver-
non.
The fees. which will be charged
after November l, will be SO per seat
per year, with quarterly permits
available at Is cents per seat and
single day permits at 81 per day per
vehicle.
The commissions opposition was
voiced in a letter signed jointly by
Chairman N. Klarence Smith and j.
Stuart White, director of publicity
and advertising, and sent to Francis
Gillen, assistant superintendent of
the Park Service.
The letter said imposition of the
fees would most probably result in
buses and other sightseeing vehicles
using the alternate U. S. Route l,
which already is congested; that it
would increase the charges to tour
lists using the buses and would there
fore curtail the number of visitors to
Alexandria and Mount Vernon. and
that the fees were discriminatory in
that they did not apply to Washing
ton taxicabs using the Memorial
highway.

School Tax Hike Urqed
By Dunn Lorinq PIT. A.

Raising the ceiling of the school
tax from SIPS to $1.75 per $1OO of
assessed property was advocated
last night at the regular meeting
of the Dunn Loring Va) Parent
Teacher Association.
Teaching vacancies have been
hard to fill, it was said, because
salaries necessarily are kept down
by the low levy. The association
passed resolution requesting State
Senator William Medley and State
Delegate Pickens Miller to intro
duce law raising the tax ceiling.
R. G. Buckelew, ways and means
chairman, reported on plans for
supper to be given from $50 to 7
pm. tomorrow by the association
at the school. Proceeds, he reported,
will be spent for playground equip

Arlington Federation
Hits Committees
Independent Action
Executive Unit Comes In
For Criticism for
Exceeding Authority

In an effort to restrain its Execu-
tive Committee from sending letters
or acting in behalf of the entire
membership when no emergency
exists, the Arlington County CVa)
Civic Federation has adopted a
report calling such actions in the
past unauthorized and unwar-
ranted"
The federation approved a report
directing the criticism at its Ex-
ecutive Committee, which was ub-
mitted by the Constitution and By
Laws Committee. headed by Percy
A. Crittenden, at regular monthly
membership meeting Tuesday night.
At a previous meeting Mr.. Crit
tenden's committee was asked to
investigate the authority given the
executive group to send out letters
and pass on resolutions between
federation membership meetings.
The query was directed as a result
Of the Executive Committee sending
out letters commencing work of the
Arlington County Public Utilities
Commission.
Mr.. Crittenden reported that with
out respect to the type of letter or
to whom such letters may be ad-
dressed, it was his committees
opinion that the organizations con-
stitution confers no specific au-
thority on the Executive Committee
to act in the absence of an emer-
gency.
The most recent action by the
Executive Committee which would
be included in the repremand was
letter sent to members of the
County Board about three weeks
ago asking that q moratorium on
zoning be declared until after a
master plan has been adopted.
A proposal to change the election
of officers from December to June
each year was defeated on recon-
mendation of Mr.. Crittenden's COM
mittee. Other proposals denied on
recommendation of the Constitution
and BYLAWS Committee included
a plan that the constitution of pro-
spective affiliated groups be evam-
ined before accepted to membership
and q resolution requiring that eight
delegates to the Interfederation
Conference, including the president,
be appointed. The committee OBJ
served that the number of delegates
from each federation af1iliated with
the Interfederation Conference
would be determined by the latter
group.
A Nominating Committee was
elected and will report next month.
The election of officers will be In
December, The Nominating Com
mittee consists of William c. Hull,
chairman; Mrs. Ruby 6. Simpson,
H. r. Morris, Harrison Mann and
Victor Meyers.
