By Freak Fire. Explosion

A freak fire and explosion late
yesterday blew the front out of the
Lady Arlington Beauty Salon, 926
South Willmore street, when a gas
water heater ignited nail polish re-
mover that fell from a broken half
gallon bottle, Fire Chief A. C. Schel-
fel reported today.
The fire started, he said, when one
of the operators picked up the bottle
and the bottom fell out, spilling the
liquid, which ignited and spread to
other bottles nearby. All occupants
of the shop rushed outside.
The explosion followed when the
operator forced open the door in
an effort to retrieve her coat. Gas
pressure had held it closed and when
it was opened admission of oxygen
caused the explosion. Several school
children received scratches from
flying glass as they were passing the
salon. Arlington and Jefferson fire
companies extinguished the blaze.
Firemen estimated damage at "sev-
eral hundred" dollars.

Junior League Head Urges
Cadet Nurse EnIistments

Miss Cecil Lester Jones of Wash
ington, president of the Association
of the Junior Leagues of America,
yesterday declared that enlistment
in the Cadet Nurse Corps would be
the greatest assistance Junior
League members could contribute to
the war effort.
ITO release a trained nurse for the
armed forces is direct and real
service" Miss Jones said at the an
nual meeting of the Board of Direc-
tors in New York. "The armed
services have sent out an urgent
call for more recruits, and the Red
Cross needs additional personnel
both at home and abroad"
Miss Jones said that the role of
the volunteer worker has added sig
nificance, in view of the Army's
acute nurse shortage and the fact
that National service act is
deemed essential. II hope every
Junior League member will exert
every possible effort to help relieve
men and women for essential war
work and for nursing duties,' she
said.

Asks Sales Tax
TO Aid Schools
Tentative Education
Budget Rejected as
Too Burdensome

Alarmed at the prospect that in
creasing school costs will create a
top-heavy tax burden on real estate,
the Fairfax County Board of Super
visors yesterday adopted resolution
favoring retail sales tax to provide
additional school revenues, and re-
jected tentative county school
budget which would raise the county
tax rate II cents per 500 valuation.
The School Board is expected to
consider the request for a budget
revision at its meeting next Tues
day. Its tentative budget calls for
a hike In the present school tax rate
from $l69 to $2.40 per 500.
With the estimated county levy
set at 40 cents, the total tax rate
in the county would be $3.50 If the
7l-cent school increase were
adopted. Members of the board
pointed out that schools now receive
up to six times as much from taxes
as do other county projects. The
Accent county levy is a decrease
OF 3 cents from last year.
The sales tax resolution is the
second to be adopted within the last
week by governing bodies of North
ern Virginia counties. A similar
resolution was adopted last week
by the Clarke County School Board,
which pointed out the benefits de-
rived from a sales tax in a neigh
boring county in West Virginia.
The sales tax resolution. which
will be sent to Gov. Darden and
local members of the General As
sembly, declares that in the opinion
of the board the sales tax levy is the
only feasible tax that will provide
funds to bring the school system up
to modern standards and that will
relieve real estate of an added
burden.
The resolution urged that most Of
the funds derived from any State
sales tax be distributed directly to
the counties, to be used at their dis
cretion for school work.
