If Arlington County residents
vote in favor of the proposed county
charter, they will be able to boast
of living in the third largest city in
Virginia.
The charter bill, now before the
Governor after its approval by the
General Assembly, provides that a
city form of government would be-
come effective on the second day
of the year following a successful
referendum
Long rated as ore of the fastest
growing counties in the State, Ar
lingtons population has expanded
from $4,000 in 1880 to an estimated
$4,000 at present.
According to 1910 census figures,
Richmond had population of ap-
proximately $4,000 and Norfolk,
l44 900. Roanoke. which came third
with population of 69,287, would
drop to fourth if Arlington becomes
a city.
In area, Arlington would stand
second with 80 square miles, led
only by Norfolk, which spreads over
359 square miles. Richmond would
be third with % square miles and
Roanoke fourth with 1913 square
miles.
Although the present amount of
retail sales in Arlington is not avail
able, 1889 figures gave the county
$50 stores with total annual sales
of s3O,5s3 900.
During the same year, total re-
tail sales in Richmond, which
headed the list of Virginia cities,
totaled $108,306,000; Norfolk, $685.
$4,000; Roanoke, $36,151, 900 and
Portsmouth, $16,494 900.
Because of Arlington's proximity
to Washington and its expansion
during the war, county officials be-
lieve retail sales have grown to such
an extent that the county now prob
ably exceeds Roanoke in retail sales.
Real estate valuation in the near
by Virginia county at present totals
s72 1865 900, according to county au-
thorities. Declaring that this figure
is triple that of IL years ago, they
predict an even sharper increase

Virginia Towns Hope
For u. 5. Hospital Aid
By the Associated Press

A number of Virginia communi-
ties are planning new hospitals with
Federal aid if Congress approves a
pending grants-in-aid measure.
Virginia could obtain $2,318, 100 in
Federal aid under provisions of the
Halliburton Senate Bill. With
matching funds of $1,575, ,902, the
Virginia total for hospital work
would be $3,894.002.
Representative Robertson, Demo-
crat, of Virginia said Virginia towns
planning to build new nom profit
hospitals or expand existing hospital
facilities are Waynesboro, Staunton,
Winchester, Hot Springs and Front
Royal.
Danville and Rocky Mount also
have indicated interest in hospital
projects
Officials of the Medical Society of
Virginia have requested Represen-
tative Daughton, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia to support the bill. They ex-
pressed the opinion such a measure
would be of considerable Importance
to Virginia since it would permit
small communities to build hospitals
they might otherwise be unable to
finance.
The Public Health Subcommittee
of the House Interstate and For
eign Commerce Committee started
hearings Thursday on the bill.

DR.. Kitchin Resigns
|AtM. j. With Attack on
Educational Policy
BY the Assoeioisd Press

DR.. Joseph A. Kitchin has re-
signed as associate professor of po-
litical science at the University OF
Maryland after criticizing the in
stitution's educational and admin
istrative policies, it was disclosed
last night.
In letter to DR.. J. F. Pyle, acting
dean of the colleges of arts and
sciences, DR.. Kitchin suggested that
the faculty be permitted to partici-
pate "democratically" in the forma-
ton of academic policy.
Despite increased plant facilities
and bid for a much larger student
body" the letter continued, "the
teaching conditions which are
among the most essential to the
welfare of an academic institution
have deteriorated-at least in the
college of arts and sciences-to such
a degree that I feel that satisfac-
tory work is impossible"
Byrd Answers Critic.
DR.. H. c. Byrd, university presi-
dent, issued a point-by-po reply
to the major criticisms in DR.
Kitchin's letter.
The 35-year-old professor, ma
tive of North Dakota, came to the
university in September, 1941, as
an instructor in political science
after teaching for five years at the
University of Michigan.
After 16 months at Maryland he
entered the Marine Corps and
served for 18. months as a captain
On discharge he returned to the
university at the beginning of the
present semester and resigned ap-
proximately three weeks later.
Salaries Held Inadequate.
The ex-faculty members com
plants and DR.. Byrd's answers were
as follows:
DR.. Kitchin-Salaries are "inade-
quate" and promotion uncertain in
the absence of a written contract.
DR.: Byrd: Maryland pays lower
salaries than some schools, but il
pays higher than many.
Dr. Kitchin: The splendid DO.
tentialities" of the institution nov
seem further from realization thar
they did when he entered the Ma.
rines three years ago.
DR.. Byrd: The contrary is true, al
evidenced by the donation of Glenn
L. Martin for a school of aeronauti
cal research and increased State ap
preparations for the Engineerin,
College. The same conditions" pre-
vail in practically all other" di
visions of the university.
Program Lacks Intergration.
DR.. Kitchin: The Americanizatior
program, as currently administered
presents little more than required
courses in American government
history, sociology and literature,
and suffers from lack of integratiol
and instructors. Furthermore, tina
the name of william Randolph
Hearst seems to be associated -
with this program makes me doub
that it will over develop beyond th'
ideal Of a narrow chauvinistic con
temptation Of American institutions
"In all fairness, I will say tina
this narrow concept of Americana
ton does not color the courses,
believe, as they are now taught"
DR.. Byrd: "It seems to me tina
DR.. Kitchin has answered his owl
doubt. II the teaching of Ameri
can backgrounds, American ideals

and the values in the America,
