Citizens Association last night.
In a report from the groups Tax

forwarded to the Commissioners, it
also was suggested that the District
raise additional funds by an income
tax on the earnings in the District
of all those who reside outside the

incorporated business.

sales tax on the ground it would
drive business in the District across
the line. Also lzsipeessary, the

cigarettes, LIQUOR and public utilities
bills.

For Those Quitting Work
By fhe A.soeioted press


BALTIMORE, Oct. ,8.-Total dis
qualification from unemployment
benefits of workers who voluntarily
quit work. without good cause had
been recommended today by spe-
cial committee of the Legislative
Council studying amendments to the
Maryland Unemployment Compen-
sation law.
The committee also proposed an
amendment which would disqualify
from unemployment benefits any
employe discharged for a dishonest
or criminal act.
Another recommendation was that
the law be revised to withhold bene-
fits from a claimant who refused to
accept suitable employment until he
"has earned at least 10 times the
weekly benefit amount in covered
employment"
The committee recommended that
the principal employer be charged
with all benefits where the claimant
has earned more than Is per cent of
his wages during a base period with
that employer, pro-rating the charge
among all employers where the
claimant has earned less than rs per
cent with one employer.

Hopkins Lab Will Use
w in Sun Studies

Scientists at the Johns Hopkins
Laboratory of Applied Physics. Sill
yer Spring, are designing equipment
to make the first recorded observa-
tons of the suns ultra violet
spectrum.
Apparatus has been perfected to
be sent aloft in a captured German
Va rocket at White Sands, N. Mex,
October ~.
Dr. James Van Allen, chief OF
|hign-altitude research, designed the
equipment, Richard r. Canaday,
public relations ofiicer at the laboya-
tory, said.
Heretofore, Mr.. Canaday ex-
planned, it has been impossible to
record the ultra-short light waves
from the sun because of the layer OF
ozone which encases the earth high
up in the atmosphere. The ozone
acts as filter and prevents the
shortest wavelengths from reaching
the earth.
The rocket is expected to ascend
more than 100 miles.
The Hopkins laboratory is one OF
four to which rockets have been
assigned for investigation of the
upper atmosphere. Others are the
Naval Research Laboratory, Prince
ton University and the University

Approval Given
I!o|ParkingS Site
In,SiIver Spring
County to Purchase
53,122 Square Feet
In Business Area

The Montgomery County Commis-
sioners today authorized the pur-
chase of a tract containing 53,l22
square feet for off-street parking in
the Silver Spring business district.
The land will be bought for so cents
per square foot.
The action was taken on the rec
ommendation of Daniel T. Doherty,
chairman of special committee ap-
pointed by the board to acquire off-
street parking facilities in the area.
sdr. Doherty says the tract, owned
by Warren w. Mulligan, 4311 Ches-
apeake street NV, faces Cameron
street at the end of Fenton street,
near the intersection of Colesville
Rad and Georgia avenue.
He also reports that his committee
expects to obtain IN option on adj
jaSent property containing 172,000
square feet owned by Robert K.
Randall of Boston. He says both
properties will accommodate ap-
proximately 600 cars. ii
Purchase of tracts In the Silver
Spring business district for off-street
parking was authorized at the last
session Of tie Legislature and will be
paid for by a $500, 900 bond issue.
The bond issue will be betrayed by
a special tax on owners of business
properties in the area.
Mr.. Doherty explained that Mr..
Mu1igan had offered to sell his
property about 10 days after the
county commissioners authorized
condemnation proceedings on August
20. He emphasized that the land
included in the option did not COM
prise the entire tract for which con-
demnation proceedings were ordered.
He added that Mr. Mulligan would
be given reasonable time" to re-:
move a metal shed now on the
property.

II firmly believe" he continued,
that representatives from city dis
tricts should see that Congress pro-
vides funds for home demonstration
work in urban areas. They need
help in Horticulture and gardening.
Many of the 10000 900 wartime gar
dens were in urban areas and the
love for growing their own food will
stay with these people. We must
be ready to help them with control
Of constant hazards to garden food
crops"
The Maryland extension service
has given the Washington suburban
area an efficient garden specialist
this year, he said, referring to Ed
ward X. Bender, whose Office is at
