butter and kerosene for the heating
and cooking stoves in the winter.
Until a year or so ago, Mr.. Dillo
chopped wood enough for both heat
and cooking. but he is not quite
as handy with an AK as he once was.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dillo have been mar
ried SO years. They kept a store
in Washington before moving to
Montgomery County about 2l years
ago.
But not all is corn. cabbage and
turnips on the Dillo farm" In the
front yard of the neat, white frame
house, flowers tended by Mrs. Dillo
grow in profusion and in one car
ner of the tract are two grape vines
which supply more grape juice and
jelly than they can use There also
is a row of pop corn, which fur
nishes enough for themselves, their
two children, Is grandchildren and
six great grandchildren
About the only thing they do not
raise on their place is the $40 they
have to pay a year in taxes, but
they manage that somehow and
expect to continue to do so as long
as they are as hale and hearty as
they are today.

One 'SeIectee'
1t Didn't Expect

Surprised and confused was Army
headquarters at Richmond yester-
day. Ofdcials expected the arrival
of 43 selectees from Fairfax County
and A men showed up with the
induction party.
Extra man was John Dabney Sui
livan, %, it was discovered after
checking back and forth with the
Fairfax Selective Service Board.
Mr.. Sullivan had misunderstood a
notice that he was subject to call
for induction on 10 days notifica-
ton. Thinking the Army wanted
him right away, he hurried to Fair
fax from his present residence,
Orange, Va, more than so miles
away.
AS he arrived 43 men were lining
up on the courthouse lawn. Just
in time" he thought, and jumped
into a bus with them.
Mr.. Sullivan is not in the Army.
The Selective Service Board did not
know how he got back to Orange,
for neither board nor induction sta.
ton found 1t possible to pay his
fare home.

Maryland 10 Limit
Passes on Ferry TO
Official Business
Forms to Be Supplied
For Legislators Who
TruveI for the Stote
By the Associated Press.

By the hSSCclsled PresS.
BALTIMORE, July 16.-Legisla-
tors and State Roads Commission
employees will have to be on official
business trips to obtain passes on
the State owned Chesapeake Bay
Ferry.
That policy was laid down in a
statement issued by the State Roads
Commission late yesterday after a
meeting at which the question Of
free ferry passage was threshed out.
The statement issued by Chair
man Ezra B. Whitman failed, how
ever, to mention anything about
passes for the Governor and the
other two members of the Board of
Public Works-State Controller J.
Millard Tawes and State Treasurer
Hooper S. Miles.
Silent on Governors Pass.
Mr.. Whitman had said previously
the Governor and members of the
Board of Public Works were in
cluded on the list of those to receive
passes-to which the Governor re-
piled he didn't have, didn't expect
and didn't want any"
The commissions statement said:
Passes will be issued to employees
of the State Roads Commission to
use the ferry on official State busi-
ness.
The State Roads Commission will
receive a daily report, and, there
fore, we will know what employees
use the ferry and when they use it.
We will also know what State roads
business they are on at the time
There will be no general passes
issued to members of the General
Assembly.
To Record All Trips.
However, any member OF the
General Assembly who requests free
passage because he is on official
State business will be permitted to
cross without charge on that par
ticular trip.
"The necessary forms for the par
ticular trip will be provided at the
terminals so that complete records
will be kept"
Mr.. Whitman said the commits
sion did not discuss the question of
passes for troops using the Susque-
hanna and Potomac River toll
bridges and probably would not un-
less the Army raised the question.

COMUS, Md, July 16.-While the
world is In turmoil over self-suffi-
cheney a Comus couple, Thomas
Dillo, 73, and his wife, Sarah, 80,
have attained it in most of the vital
raw materials on their 212-acre
farm.
From the neat rows of pole and
bunch limas, beets. potatoes. squash
and tomatoes they get more than
enough to serve their table with
fresh vegetables during the spring,
summer and fall, while the surplus
is canned for the winter.
The 2h-acre tract, part of the
26-acre farm Mr.. Dillo worked for
more than 20 years before he sold
it and retired few years ago. is so
efficiently worked and neat that it
won first prize in recent contest

u. S. Not Yet Ready
For War, Club Is Told

Claiming the United States is un-

tary Affairs Committee, discussed
the defense situation at a meeting
of the Bethesda Chevy Chase Md
Rotary Club yesterday in the Co.

tanned. This, the speaker con-
tended, will not be until 18 months
hence.

Takoma Park Cites
Absence Of Crime,
Praises Police
Volume Of Building
Reviewed in Annual
Report of Mayor

Mayor Oliver w. Youngblood Of
Takoma Park, Md, reviewed ac-
complishments in the town during
the past fiscal year in his annual
report made public today and en-
phasized the fact that the area had
been practically free from crime.
He commended the local police force,
which has been assisted by Mont
gomery County police.
Attention was called to the large
volume of building during the past
year. The report showed 172 one
family homes constructed, valued
at $777, ,420; four two-family dwell
ings, S26,335; a new library building
on the grounds of the Seventh-day
Adventists; one store, $25,000; two
gas stations. s15,750; six private
garages, $3.50; 18 homes with ad-
ditions or alterations, s2l685, max
ing a total of S90974O.
1T is the purpose of the Council
to build culverts on as many open
streams each year as possible, in
order to take care of the storm water
and to enlarge those storm sewers
which have become inadequate due
to developments in the town." the
report continued. "A number of
new storm water culverts have been
installed over private property un-
der the new policy adopted by the
Council, whereby the property own
er pays for the material and the
town furnishes the labor"
Citizens are requested to file petit
tions with the town for permanent
improvements, as it is not the in
tention of the Council to do any as-
sessable work on streets, unless it
is absolutely necessary without the
sanction of the majority of property
owners, the report says.
Mayor Youngblood urged parents
to send their children to the munich
pal Fairgrounds, where they may
have supervised play, instead of
permitteing them to play in the
streets.

Sites Approved in
Nearby Area
Projects to Add 2S0
More Dwelling Units;
120 Near Goblin John

Approval of sites for three more
defense housing projects for this
area was announced yesterday by the
Federal Works Administration. The
projects are to be located near Cabin
John, Nd, and near Falls Church,
Va.
The new projects will provide a
total of 280 more dwelling units for
defense workers in this area, rails
ing the number of dwellings being
enanced by the Government in or
near the District to 3,765.

Two of the sites selected are in
the Cabin John vicinity. One hum
dred homes will be erected on 49,
acre tract located on the south side
of Conduit road, at the west end of
the Cabin John Bridge-on the site
of the old Cabin John Hotel.
Another 20 homes are to be built
on a tract of land near Cabin John,
on Seven Locks road. The site is
about 21k miles from the David Tay-
lor model testing basin at Carderock,
Md, and it is planned to house civ

The Falls Church site is to be used
for the erection of 160 homes for
War Department workers. The site
is a vacant tract containing about
20 acres, on the outskirts of Falls
Church. 1t is bounded on the east
by Cherry street and is between

members disclosed as they prepared
to meet this afternoon in Hyatts-
vile.
The committee is drawing list
of recommended Improvements to
be constructed from the proceeds
of an 100000 bond issue. It's rec
concentrations will be submitted to
the county commissioners.
Milton A. Pyle, University of
Maryland professor, who recently
was appointed engineer for the
committee, will meet with the group
this afternoon. Committee mem
bers said it was unlikely, however,
that any specific program would be
announced today.
Some of the Projects.
One of the Chillum district prof.
ects under consideration is estab-
lishment of a traffic circle at the
intersection of Queens Chapel road
and Eastern avenue at the District
line, where the latter street meets
Queens Chapel road at a sharp
| angle.
Another proposal being studied is
the construction of a Y on Thir-
| tieth street, where it intersects
Queens Chapel road at the Mount
Rainier High School, giving mo-
torists entering the intersection
| clearer vision.
Also contemplated are traffic
| circle at the intersection Of the
East-West highway and Riggs and
Ager roads and a traffic control
signal of some sort at the intersec-
ton of New Hampshire avenue and
East-West highway.
Hyattsville Project.
The committee also is studying a
more direct entrance from the west
| to the Baltimore boulevard at Hy-
| attsville. 1t was said that of the
several approaches, the best one is
at Columbia avenue, but even this
! is regarded as inadequate.
One proposal is to widen Columbia
avenue and at the same time extend
it to a point where it would pass
through a tunnel under the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad tracks near
North Brentwood and ultimately
link up with Bladensburg road at
the boundary between Hyattsville
and Bladensburg.
Another general improvement
under careful study is the construc-
ton of sidewalks along heavily
travelled highways. This has already
been urged by numerous civic
groups and some members Of the
Advisory Committee, due to the
steady increase of fatal pedestrian
accidents. The need Is particularly
strong on the highways passing
between incorporated towns and
those passing by or leading to school
buildings, members Of the commit
tee claim.
