Secretary of War" for the construc-
tion of the Camp Springs Meadows
tMdD airfield, and for other public
uses"
The petitioners listed were Will
liam H. Driver, special assistant to
the Attorney General, and Joseph

the Justice Department.
Land owners were given 10 days
after September IA to show reasons
why the land should not be con-
demned, according to notices re-
ceived by residents. The notice point
ed out that money had been appro-
priated to acquire the land for the
Government.
Meanwhile, 1t was learned that a
War Department field Office had
been established at Marlboro to
handle negotiations between prop
erty owners and the Government.
One hundred and ten parcels OF
land are involved in the area. While
there are only two large estates in
the district, the majority of farms
affected have been subdivided and
either leased or sold to families.
Much of the area Is In timber and
not now in use.
Pyles Estate Largest.
The largest single farm Is the
Pyles estate of 800 acres at Camp
Springs, owned by DR.. Chester Fyles
of Washington, according to Robert
M. Hardy, owner Of a general store
at Meadows. The second largest
estate is the 150-acre farm owned
by DR.. w. w. Steward.
Both farms have been growing
corn, tobacco and wheat, most of
which already had been harvested.
Mr.. Hardy, who has operated his
store for IT years, is among those
receiving notices. Another is Mrs.
Grace Armstrong, who has farmed
her 20-acre place for 10 years.
The site selected for the air field
figured in controversy In 1887 when
it was proposed as site for an air.
port to serve Washington.
Mr.. Hardy said he had talked to
number of families in the area
and that they were willing to make
the sacrifice III the Government
needs an airport here" He added
that they "hated to lose their
homes" but were ready to 60 when
ordered.
