Growing Enrolment
Of Schools Problem
To Prince Georges
Increase Suid to Exceed
Rise in Tuxoble
Wealth of Section

A gloomy picture which shows an
increase in the Prince Georges Coun-
| ty Md school enrolment far out
of proportion to the rise in taxable
wealth will be sent to the county
commissioners within the next few
days, it was learned today.
In a report to the commissioners.
Nicholas Orem, county school super
intendent, will point out that school
enrolment of 1876 for the 1940-l
period was an increase of 1,041 pu-
pills over the 193940 period. In
addition the report will assert that
the county'S taxable wealth has in
creased only s6,O0O00O for the same
period.
Moreover, Mr.. Orem anticipates an
additional 1900 pupils during the
next school year which will re-
quire construction of 33 new class
rooms at a cost of s24OOO0 and an
additional expenditure of 1000 for
new teachers and classroom opera
ton
If this rate of increase continues
annually, Mr. Orem said, the ques-
ton arises as to how long Prince
Georges County will be able to
finance its own school system.
Mr.. Orem's strong belief that the
Federal Government should con-
tribute a share of the expense in
| volved because of the large influx
of defense workers into Washing
ton is we'll known. 1t was pointed
out that it costs approximately SAT
annually to educate an elementary
school pupil and s85 to provide in
struction for high school pupil.
In this respect Mr. Orem has point
ed out previously that residents of
private loW-cost housing develop
ments fail to contribute propor-
! tionate share in the education costs.
Already the Board of Education is
seeking s250,000 in Federal funds for
an addition to the Greenbelt High
School and new elementary school
for the community Moreover $780,
900 in Federal funds has been re-
quested to match the boards own
building fund to construct schools in
the county's metropolitan area,
where the need is greatest.
Mr. Orem pointed out that it
costs $1,000 to construct each class
room, including adjacent hallway
and toilet facilities and about 81 300
year to operate.

BALTIMORE, July 15.-If passes
to ride the State-owned Chesapeake
Bay ferry free are being issued to
certain State officials and employees
Gov. O'Conor is absolutely in the
dark about it,"
That was his comment on the dis
closure by Ezra B. Whitman, State
Roads Commission chairman, that
ferry passes were being handed out
to the Governor, members OF the
Board of Public Works. legislators,
roads commission members and en-
ployes on official business.
Gov. O'Conor said he didn't have,

I'm absolutely in the dark about
it." he said I'm not a party to any
understanding"
Commission Meets Today.
Mr.. Whitman said the commission
would meet today to decide whether
the passes would include free trans
portation for all occupants Of car

He disclosed that "a large num-
ber Of people" including some who
were given passes by the Claiborne
Annapolis Ferry Co. before it was

quested free tickets.
I'VE have been forced to refuse
passes TO them" Mr.. Whitman
added.
The Legislature at its recent ses-
sion declined to authorize ferry
passes for legislators and Maryland

The House amended a bond issue
bill, authorizing State purchase of
the ferry, to provide free transpor-
tation for State legislators and
Maryland Congress members.
The Senate at first concurred in
the amendment but later rejected it.
