Silver Spring Project
For Veterans HOUSING
Fought by Residents

A project designed to provide
housing for veterans in Silver
Spring met with furious opposition
yesterday by Rosemary Hills and
Rock Creek Forest residents in a
hearing in the Liquor Dispensary
Building, Silver Spring.
il. Edgerton, Rosemary Hills,
presented statement signed by so
residents of the development oppos-
ing q petition to rezone from resi-
dental A to apartment house use a
78-acre tract owned by the C. A..
Snow Co. on the East-West highway
adjacent to the Falkland Apart
ments.
Mr.. Edgerton claimed other areas
exist in the county much more suit
able" for apartment house con-
struction, and that the contem-
plated project would "deteriorate
into a low cost, tenement-type de-
velopment within 10 years"
Taken Under Amusement.
The petition for rezoning, filed BY
the Maryland-N National Capital Park
and Planning Commission, was
taken under advisement by the
Montgomery County commissioners.
Also testifying against the vet
Grams housing project was 1t. Col.
w. H. Cary Of the United States
Public Health Service, who contend
ed that veterans would rather have
homes than apartments, and that
$1,000 detached homes should be
built on the site instead.
Mark Eldredge, president of the
Rosemary Hills Citizens Associa-
ton; j. H. Reid, president of the
Rock Greek Forest Citizens Asso-
citation, and F. H. Forsyth we're
among the others who lifted their
voices in protest, contending that
property values in the area would
depreciate and overcrowding would
result.
Alan B. Mills, architect for the
proposed project, said plans call for
a duplex, garden-type development
of Colonial design.
Calls Project asset"
Declaring that the development
would be an asset" to the area,
Mr.. Mills explained it would be sep
arated from Rosemary Hills by two
rows of detached homes, equivalent
or better than existing homes
there" He added that of street
parking would be provided.
Stacy L. Reed, vice president of
the Snow Co.. said approximately
500 units are contemplated. He
said the property in question is the
logical place for such a project be-
cause of its proximity to Falkland
Apartments.
Others favoring the proposal in
cluded 1t. Col. E. Brooke Lee. a
member of the Park and Planning
Commission; Maxwell Scrimgeour
of the Silver Spring Board of Trade
and James Mccain, president of

Posse Seeks Negro Family Arrest Resisted;
 Four Officers Shot

Magee, Miss, Aug. 18.-(UP)-A posse of Mississippi state police and sheriffs deputies surrounded a murky swamp near here today and began closing in Negro family that took refuge there after injur- ing four peace officers last night in shotgun battle.
 Smith county Sheriff Glynn Hes ter, Gaston Sullivan, the city mar shal of Mize, Miss, and two depu- tized civilianS-Reza AinsWorth and GlaSton Sullivan-Were injured in the shooting.
 Nine state police officers bol- stered local forces as the Negroes, known only as the Craft family, fled from the house at Mize where the shooting occurred and fled to the marshy and densely- -thickened swamp.
 Hester and his men went to the Negro dwelling after white pas sengers of an automobile travelling on Highway 20 near Mize reported they were fired on by Negroes. No one in the car was reported to have been hit.
 AS the officers approached the house, however, they were met by blast of shotgun fire All four men fell to the ground, all seriously hit but one of the deputies was able to drag his companions into car and reach a point where they could summon medical aid.
 State police arrived on the scene shortly after A. M. to find the Negro house deserted. The Negroes were then tracked to the marshes of Magee, Whre a search was start ed.
 Bigland said the injured men were hurt so badly they had been unable to give coherent account of what happened. Doctors at Magee hospital said it will take days to remove the shot from the bodies of the injured officers.

inch high. Four needles or dogs" used to remove the opium residue from the pipes were found, as were package of hypodermic needles used when the opium is adminis- tered eXternally-and lamp over which the opium pill is cooked. All the equipment was taken to New Haven by the Federal agents as evidence.
 Inspector Bender reported that five of those arrested in the raids became sick last night in their cells and required medical atten- tion. Probably the lack of drugs made them ill, he opined.
 Opium traffic in this city has been carried on for some time, police said. Two raids during the last two years both met with suc- cess. Two of the men arrested said by Treasury Department agents, have furnished an outlet for considerable opium traffic between this city and New York.
 Both raids were conducted at Il A. M yesterday Detective Sgt Joseph Mccarthy headed local police in the Union Street raid while Detective Sgt. Charles Me Weeney, was in charge of the raid on South Main Street.
 Accompanying the Federal agents were four dogs specially trained to detect the scent of opium. The dogs were successful in discovering several hidden caches of the drug Two of the agents were Chinese They did not immediately make their identities known when the raids started, police said. The pail listened to the conversations of the Chinese while the raids were in progress, telling local police tc watch the offenders who were pre- pairing to hide some of the drugs.

Vet Describes WAA Sense

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 1a-UP)-A young Navy veteran told a special House committee Investigating sur plus property disposal today that he purchased aircraft transmitter -re- ceiver sets valued at $4,0OO each from an Atlanta junk dealer for $6.
 He said the sets had been marked for salvage and sold as mass junk by the Army at Warner Robins Field, Macon, Ga.

Port Hoifo Reinforced By Britons
Atmosphere Tense; Refugee Transport Undergoes Repoirs

Jerusalem, Aug. 19-(UP)-Brit- ish troop endorsements moved into Palestine from Transjordan to- day as renewed military prepara- tions were seen in the Haifa port, where the blast-damaged refugee transport Empire Haywood was be- ing repaired.
 The underground war of nerves against the British continued today. Another false telephone warning that the postoffice was about to be blown up sent employees running into the streets. An hours search produced nothing.
 Arab legiopnaires from Transjor- dan occupied positions in the streets around the so-called British fortress in Jerusalem. Mobile British troops guarded approaches to the central post office, which has been evacuat- ed after numerous anonymous warnings"
 Everywhere there was an atmos- phere of expec ctancy, but the Jewish underground organizations were ly- ing low. Unimpeachable sources said the underground organizations, with the possible exception of IT, gun Xvai Leuni, were avoiding vio- lence momentarily while British Jewish negotiations proceed in Lon- | don.
 In Haifa, British Navy men were repairing the bottom of the Empire Heywood, which Jewish refugees tried to scuttle yesterday shortly after it left Haifa to deport them to Cyprus. The ship was slightly damaged by small gelignite explo- sions and put back into port.
 One wounded girl was brought ashore from the HeyWood. Its sis- ter ship, the Empire Rival, sailed for Cyprus yesterday. The Hey woods contingent Of illegal immi- grants resisted vigorously against transfer from the little ship or which they came to Palestine, and British troops forced them aboard with tear gas and fire hoses.
 Observers believed new phase of military operations in the Holy Land might be at hand.
