Stray Animal Shelter
Is Nearing Completion

A shelter to provide temporary
homes for stray animals picked up
in Montgomery County Is nearing
completion at the Meadowbrook
Saddle Club In Rock Greek Park.
Although still under construction,
the shelter during the last two
months has provided temporary
quarters for nearly 200 dogs, more
than 10c cats and a goat found
roaming in the county. If animals
are not redeemed within five days
they are destroyed in special gas
chamber.
Sponsored by the Montgomery
County Animal Rescue League, the
main shelter building has been
completed. Temporary cages are
being used until permanent wire
ones can be constructed. The
shelter will consist of indoor quar-
ters connected with runs. The
building will be heated by a coal
stove.
Records are kept on every animal
received, and attempts are made to
locate owners or to place stray
animals. Dogs and cats are now
available, but there is waiting list
for some breeds.

Patrick Sees Russia
Jas Most Peaceful
Nation After War

Russia will be the most peaceful
nation in the world, once the war
has been brought to a successful
conclusion, Representative Patrick,
Democrat, of Alabama, said last
night in an extemporaneous talk
at the monthly dinner meeting OF
the Federation Of Businessmen's
Associations.
This observation was but one Of q
number Of pithy remarks on postwar
problems, both national and inter-
national, made by the Alabama Rep
resentative. Elaborating on peace
plans after the war, Mr.. Patrick
asserted that facts and not senti-
ments will determine the final ar
rangements made at the world
council table, because the lesson
Of the World War Is still fresh in
our minds The peace will have
to include every one he said as ''you
can't fight a war today without in
volving all nations"
The Insuror's Association was
voted in as a member of the fedora
ton. All other business matters were
postponed, including proposal to
reorganize the federation by setting
up board of five members from
each association empowered to act
on all business of the federation
This plan originally was introduced
at meeting in November.
No action will be taken on the
proposal at the next meeting, how
ever. Discussion on the subject will
be heard then and If the idea is met
favorably, a notice will be sent to
each member of District business
associations informing them that
the proposal will be voted on at the

Arlington Manager
Proposes $1,000, 600
In Postwar Projects

A recommendation by Arlington
County Manager Frank G. Hanra-
han for q maximum bond issue OF
5000, 900 to finance postwar prof.
ects was to be presented today to
the County Board.
The proposed bond issue, If ap-
proved by the board, would be paid
OF at the rate of $250,0o0 year
owe 20-year period, Mr.. Hanrahan
said. The interest would amount to
$50, 900 for the first year and would
decrease 1880 each year thereafter.
The total 20-year cost, he explained
would be $6,575 900 with the average
annual payment Of both principal
and interest totaing 1886, 900.
Mr.. Hanrahan asserted that the
proposal would entail an increase OF
Al cents in the tax rate, bringing
the levy to $3.1l per 500 for all pur-
poses, based on a 40 per cent valua-
tion.
Urges Careful Study.
The most needed projects, hi
added, should be carefully decided
on to afford the greatest amount
of good to the greatest number O.
citizens. He added he was not pre-.
pared to suggest specific sums fol
the projects listed by the Postwar
Planning Committee without further
study.
This committee had recommended
s6,000,000 as the bond issue figure
The following projects were speci.
fed: Incinerator, $500, 600; sewage
treatment plant enlargement, $780,.
600; curb and gutter, 100000; side.
walks. 100000; pavements, $1,000.
600; bridges, 100000; storm sewers
81 900 900; playground expansion
$400, 600; courthouse expansion
$225 900: county share in regiona
Jail, $l25 900; additional property
yard buildings, s150,000; centra
library, $150,0O0, and Four Mile Rur
flood control, $150,00
Mr.. Hanrahan said he agrees with
the projects listed, but feels that
considerable study is necessary tc
dCkCl tIlC
I'VE must look to the future fol-
additional sources of revenue" he
declared, IF we are to have the
much needed Improvements. Al
such time as we may have our new
assessment, we will be in a better
position to determine the size of the
bond issue and further, as our Local
government method changes in the
due course of time, as they do in all
other similar communities, addi-
tional revenues will be Forthcoming
aggregating a possible $3.50 900 tc
s500,000 annually, SO we will not
have to look to real estate to carry
any more than its proper share o1
taxes.
No Cure-All.
The proposed $4,000, 900, he said
could not be expected to cure more
than "a few of our ills, but If we
consider that it would run through Q
possible five-year program, together
with our budget, which could pos
sibly carry minor capital improve.
ments, our entire expendi-
ture during flve-year period woulc
be approximately s25 600. 900, large
part of which would be for employ
ment.
During that time, our national
readjustment program would be un-
der way; our loval government
would have a postwar experience
not now available and possible
changes In our local government,
setup would be beneficial. which
might enable us at that time tc
make further capital expenditures.
