terms of the law, is placed in Vir-
ginia, with the Federal Government
retaining current jurisdiction.
The Washington National Airport
also falls in Virginia, but while the
States ABC laws and road taxes
will be enforced, no direct State tax
will be collected on aviation fuel
sold there.
In connection with policing the
airport, a Civil Aeronautics Admin
istration spokesman in Washington
said today that while the CAA now
maintains a Federal guard force
with limited police powers, it prob
ably will be necessary to seek clari-
fication of police jurisdiction under
the new setup. He said it might
be necessary to increase the police
powers of the guard force.
An official of the Interior Depart
ment in Washington said that on
some occasions the Park Police have
co-operated with CAA guards in
cases where persons who have vio-
lated airport laws have entered the
District.
The Interior Department Official
said that if Park Police are to CO.
operate more fully with CAA guards
1t will be necessary to increase theil
powers in the airport area. The
Park Police will have jurisdiction ir
iother areas under Federal control.

John Locke Green. Arlington
County treasurer, said he will file
an amended plea in the Circuit
Court today seeking a mandamus
to require the deposit of county

urer's Office.
On Friday, Circuit Court Judge
Walter T. Mccarthy sustained a
demurrer filed by Commonwealth S
Attorney Lawrence w. Douglas to
a petition by Attorney Frank l..
Ball, jr., asking that all athletic
association funds be deposited with
the county treasurer.
Judge McCarthy's ruling, however.
LETT the door open for amended
pleas by Mr.. Ball and Mr.. Green.
who had filed an intervening peti-
tlon because his Office was involved
in the suit.
Mr.. Green pointed out that the
School Board is the duly constituted
agent through which county schools
are operated and which appropriates
and disburses funds for school use.
that the respondents are agents and
employees of the School Board and
are responsible for depositing all
public funds with the county treas
urer.
Mr.. Balls amended petition is
scheduled to be filed within the next
10 days.
In the previous petitions, it was
argued that because athletic asso-
citation funds are collected and dis
bursed by agents and employees of
the School Board, they are public
funds which should be deposited
with the county treasurer.
