Economists Report
On Postwar Needs
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-Co-opera.
ton between major nations will be
necessary to prevent serious eco
nomic difficulties in the postwa,
era, the Monetary Stands Inquiry
which concerns itself with economic
problems, reported yesterday.
World currencies are so interde-
pendent that without coordination
''or at least governmental collabora
ton economic difficulties of in
.creasing severity appear likely in
the postwar era, it said.
DR.. John Parke Young, monetary
economist for the State Department
said that following the First World
War economic disintegration and
distress were more serious in the
postwar period than during the wal
itself. He urged an internationa,
survey Of the worlds currency struc-
ture to prevent the same condition
when this war ends.
DR.. Young said Europe would need
after the armistice, capital for re-
stocking, rehabilitation and recon-
struction; control of exchange rates
during the transition period; control
of short-term capital movements;
currency and exchange policies
which permit relatively free move
ment of goods and services through
out the world.

Citizens Meet ToniuhI
To Discuss Recreation
For -Four Corners
Development of Schools
Fairgrounds Will Be-
important Part Of Plan

Representatives of six citizens or
ganizations forming the Cooperation
Committee of Civic Associations OF
-Four Corners and Nearby Areas will
meet at 8 O'Clock tonight in the
|Dispensary Building in Silver Sprine
to discuss its recommendations fol
recreational facilities with county
and park officials.
A program to develop play space
In the area for both adults and chill
dren will be presented for considera-
ton to Park Commissioner E. Brooke
Lee and County Commissioner Lacy
Shaw.
George T. O'Neill, chairman of the
Cooperation Committee, said the
group believes the most important
phase of the program is the develop
ment of the Fairgrounds of the
North Four Corners and South -Four
Corners Schools.
For the use of adults and older
children the acquisition of two COM
munity recreation sites in the vicin-
ity of the schools is advocated. The
committee is also recommending
that site be acquired for a com
munity house within the business
zone at -Four Corners and within 20(
yards of the intersection of the
Colesville road and Old Bladensbure
road. Part of the site could be re-
served for fire house, the recon-
mendation points out.
The program also suggests the de-
velopment of present recreationa
facilities adjacent to Long Branch
Village.
Mr.. O'Neill said the committee
hopes to have these improvements
made without any increase in the
tax rate. Idle funds ordinarily usec
for construction work or school sites
might be used he added.

Court voids Statute
Creating [ansda|e
From -Four Towns
Dillon Park Wins Suit
On Grounds Bill Did
Not Have Proper Title

An act passed at the last session
OF the State Legislature to permit
incorporation Of four Prince Georges
County communities into a munici-
pality to be known as Lansdale has
been declared unconstitutional by
Circuit Court Judges John B. Gray.
jr., and Charles c. Marbury.
The four towns affected are Boule-
ward Heights. Bradbury Heights,
Coral Hills and Dillon Park. In a
referendum held shortly after the
bill was adopted, Dillon Park was
the only community in which q
majority Of the residents voted In
favor of the incorporation.
Opponents of the incorporation
living in Dillon Park then brought
suit III Prince Georges County
Circuit Court to have the act de-
clared unconstitutional on the
grounds that its title did not mem
ton the purpose of the bill and
that the measure was Improperly
enacted as an emergency law.
Title Ruled Inadequate.
The courts decision, delivered BY
Judge Gray, pointed out that the
title OF the act was not adequate
to describe the subject matter con.
tanned in it. as provided in the
Maryland General Law. 1t was
explained in the decision that al
though the bill repealed the original
charter Of Boulevard Heights and
enlarged its town limits by includ-
ing In it the three other munici.
paltles, no explanation of the bills
purpose was contained in its title.
The Maryland Constitution,
Judge Gray declared, provides that
the subject of each bill enacted BY
the Legislature must be described
In It's title SO as to fairly advise
the Legislature and the people OF
the real nature of the legislation. {"
There Is nothing to indicate that
an entire new municipality was
about to be created with an entirely
different method of governments
or. what is most important
that an entirely new area was to
be added to the corporate limits Of
the previous town (Boulevard
Heights.
Emergency Clause Ignored.
Judge Gray added that in view Of
the courts determination that the
act is unconstitutional, 'it is unnec.
essary to consider the effect of the
emergency clause"
At the same time the decision held
that the original charter of Boule-
ward Heights remained unaffected
by the passage of the act. The deci-
sion also issued q decree restraining
officials elected in the referendum
from carrying out the provisions OF
the act.
The plaintiffs were represented by
Attorney Walter L. Green and
Vance v. Vaughan. ATTORNEYS for
the defendants were Leroy Pusnph-
rey. a member of the county dele
cation to the State Legislature and
author Of the bill, and Thomas z,
Jones, secretary of State for Mary

Sales Tax Question
To Come Up Today
In Virginia Assembly
Week Appears Likely
To Be Busiest of
Session to Dute

BY the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Jan. 31.-Legislation
of major Importance, with the pro-
posed sales tax referendum being
the principal matter scheduled for
consideration, will face the Vir-
ginia General Assembly as 1t re-
convenes after the weekend recess
today for what promises to be the
buiest week so far Of the 1914
session.
The sales tax question is ex-
pected to come before both the
House and Senate. A resolution to
submit the matter to the Advisory
Legislative Council for study and
a report at least 60 days prior to
the next session of the Assembly
in 1916 was offered Friday in the
House by Delegate John B. Spiers,
Radford, and referred to the COM
m1ttee on rules. It is understood
that Speaker Tom Stanley expects
to call that committee together to-
day to consider the Spiers proposal.
Meanwhile, the Hodges bill pro-
posing a 3 per cent sales tax, with
out a referendum. reposes in the
files of the Senate Finance Com
mittee. Chairman Aubrey G..
Weaver said the patron of the bill
has not asked for a hearing but
that one would be granted promptly
II a request were made.
However, it appears unlikely that
action will be taken on the Hodges
bill until the atmosphere is cleared
somewhat and the policy of the As
sembly in dealing with the demands
for increased appropriations is
clarified.
Scheduled for consideration by
the Senate today is the bonus bill
providing for Is per cent increase
on the first $4,000 of salary received
by State employees. 1t was reported
by the Senate Finance Committee
Friday without any major amend
ments.

Burns; Loss $4,000
Seven Salvage Vehicles
Destroyed by BIoze

Damages totaling approximately
$4,000 resulted from a fire yester.
day in motor storage shed at Fort
Myer, post authorities said today.
Apparently starting from a hot.
air furnace in the middle of the
structure, flames rapidly spread botf
ways, exploding 30-gallon water
tank and destroying the shed.
Post authorities said most usuable
equipment was saved and only seven
salvage vehicles stored in the shed
were destroyed.
Jeeps were driven out Of the shed
by Fort Myer soldiers. One soldier
suffered broken ankle fighting the
blaze.
Post authorities said the salvage
vehicles lost included a jeep, two
pickup trucks, two trucks, one am
bulance and one automobile. They
were used as a source of parts, post
authorities said. Other material
lost included cable winding ma
chimes, truck parts, wire wrenches
and other accessories.
Five Arlington County fire COM
panies responded to the alarm and
equipment was brought in from Ar
lington Hall and South Post, Fort
Myer.
