tween the Baltimore & Ohio Rail-

up campaign for the Silver Spring
area; installation of a traffic light
at Georgia avenue, Eastern avenue
and Blair road; high speed trans
portation from the B. & o. Station
in Silver Spring into Union Station,
and improvement of trash collection.
Support of the proposal stipulat-
ing that building lots in areas where
sewer and water are not available
be required to be larger in size than
those having sanitary facilities also
was expressed.
In addition the program in
cludes a study of the maintenance
of schools in the area and efforts
will be made to keep their repair
and upkeep at a high standard.
