County's Highways

The Prince Georges County Civic
Federation last night voted to seek
legislation to provide minimum road
construction standards for new de-
velopments in the county and pro-
vide penalties if such standards
were not met.
The federation's action followed
a talk by County Engineer Arthur
w. Tayman, who explained that
while his Office had set up minimum
standards and many developers were
following them the county lacked
enforcement authority.
(The Montgomery County Com
missioEers Tuesday adopted a
set Of minimum standards to be
followed by developers in con-
structing roads in new subdi-
visions.)
The federation indorsed the peti-
ton OF the SafeWay Trails buslines
to pick up and discharge passengers
on the Washington Baltimore
boulevard. Daniel M. Greene, chair
man OF the Laws Committee. asserted
that similar service now being pro-
vlded by the Greyhound lines is
inadequate.

and chairman of the federation's
special School Committee. reported
need for competent" elementary
school trustees. Mr.. Ickes also

Tor county high schools.
After a discussion of the vandal-
Ism that resulted in the breaking of
many windows and other damage to
schools, it was recommended that
guards be stationed at the schools on
24-hour basis.

CheVerly, chairman of the Flood
Control and Parks Committee, said
he has been informed engineers plan
to eliminate flood conditions at the
Peace Cross in Bladensburg but has
not been told just how this would
be done.
Mrs. Betty Tayman, Safety Com
mlttee chairman, urged that all
children entering the county schools
next Monday undergo a physical ex-
animation.
