MRS. HERVEY APPOINTED
MCDOWELL CANCER CHM.

| The appointment of Mrs. Robert
Hevey as Mcdowell county chair
man for the first major fund cam
palgn Of the American Cancer So
clety has just been announced by
John Kerr, of Warrenton, State
Campaign Chairman for the North
Carolina Division of the Field Army
of the American Cancer Society.
The appeal for funds will be made
during April, which has been desig-
mated "Cancer Control Month" by
Act of Congress and of the North
Carolina General Assembly.
Everyone in our community
must learn the shocking facts about
cancer" said Mrs. Hervey, COM
menting on her acceptance of the
Craftsmanship. 81 strongly believe
that once these facts are known,
every man and woman in Mcdowell
will respond generously to this ap-
peal, which may mean life or death
to themselves and those they love.
"Most of us simply do not know
that cancer kills 500 more people
than all contagious and infectious
diseases combined, including infan-
tile paralysis, tuberculosis, malaria,
scarlet fever, and others. Last year
cancer is estimated to have killed
175,000 Americans. If the present
cancer death rate is not checked,
100000 Americans - many of
them now walking the streets of
our own community-are going to
die of cancer"
eve can save the lives of millions
of Americans now dying needless
ly," Mrs. Hervey added, 'by giving
our active support to the drive Of
the American Cancer Society. Our
contributions will mean more infor-
nation centers and detection elm
les, better care for cancer patients,
and will help the Society to carry
forward it's program of research and
education. A gift to the cancer
campaign helps to save millions of
lives, now and in the FUTURE"

tanners Move 10 Sell
Tract Once Proposed
As Silver Spring Park

The Maryland-National Capital
Park and Planning Commission to-
day announced abandonment OF its
plans to develop for recreational
purposes the 176 900 -square-foot
tract in the rear Of the Silver
Spring Armory and decided instead
to request that the area be zoned
commercial preparatory to Offering
1t for sale.
The commission recommended the
sale to the Montgomery County
Commissioners Of q portion Of the
tract, containing about 10l 900
square feet, for use as q public
parking site. The price suggested
was rs cents square foot, the fig-
ure the county has been paying for
such property.
The remainder Of the property,
according TO the commission, is
worth at least So per square foot
on the open market and may 60
as high as $l2 square foot.
The land, which originally con-
tanned 250,000 square feet, was pur-
chased by the county about 18 years
ago for % cents q square foot. The
total purchase price was $40, 900.
Two years ago, 10000 square feet Of
the tract was sold to st. Michael,s
Parish for 40 cents q square foot,
or total Of $4,000.
E. Brooke Lee, vice chairman OF
the commission, pointed out that II
the smaller portion of the tract
sells for 50 square foot, 1t would
be worth $605, ,040.
The remaining 10l 900 square feet,
II sold at rs cents square foot,
would bring $75,750. This figure
added to the estimated price Of the
tract to be sold for parking site
and the $4,000 paid by st. Michael's
Parish, makes a total OF $708, ,750.
This is approximately $3.50 900 more
than the county paid for the entire
tract IS years ago.
A resolution adopted by the Plan
ming Commission says the property
now represents too high value to
justify recreational or community
building use."
The measure also declares that
the general public welfare is not
served by locating community or
general recreational activities Ia the
center of a large business district. !"
