Rockville Faces
Health Problem
Merson States

Blake d. Merson, owner of the
dump" property near Rockville,
last night told the town council
should the county commissioners
deny him the permit for which he
applied, Rockville would face a
possible garbage problem. If he is
not granted permit without any
strings to it," at the public hear
ing to be held Tuesday, Mr.. Mer-
son said he would have to with
draw his refuse collection service
from the town on June 18th.
He reminded the council that the
property has been used as a dump
since 1887, and that it has proven
to be the only site that can main
tain a low service charge to the
townspeople. Town officials have
used the dump free of charge, he
said. He further stated that no one
regrets it more than he, that there
are no facilities available that can
be used as economically for refuse
disposal.
The SO called County incinera-
tor" is not really a county plant
at all, according to Mr.. Merson,
but when completed will be the
property of the Suburban Sanitary
Commission. He also said that the
cost of using the incinerator and
hauling the refuse to the plant,
which is to be located at Linden,
would be so high that he could not
afford to contract for it.
To close the dump now, without
providing a place to receive the
refuse and garbage, would present
a serious health hazard, Mr.. Mer-
son pointed out.

M'gruder Retires
From White
House IS Years

Forest l.. Magruder, who for
fifteen years was member of the
White House Police Force, re-
tired on June LIST because of dis
ability. During his years at the
door of the Executive Mansion,
Mr.. Magruder figures that ne has
handled about 100000 invitations
to state dinners, receptions and
teas, during the administrations of
Hoover, Roosevelt and Truman.
Mr.. Magruder has had many in
teresting experiences, varying
from the proper reception of dig
nitaries, to the cool and quiet ex-
pulsion Of eccentrics. One year he
accompanied Mr.. Roosevelt to
Hyde Park sixteen times. And
well he remembers the time Queen
Elizabeth of England gave MIN
several roses from a bouquet she
was carrying. Gate crashers have
always been a White House prob
lem and police are ever on the
alert for them. One evening when
Mr.. Magruder was taking invita-
tions at the door Of the White
House ne saw small young man
apparently hiding behind Senator
Willism Gibbs McAdoo. After he
had collared the young man, Mr..
Magruder found that he not only
had an invitation, but he was
Mickey Rooney.
Born and raised in Montgomery
County, Mr.. Magruder lives in
Rockville with his wife and two
children. Before joining the White
House Force, he was member of
the Metropolitan Police Force for
over seven years.
