S|atedon Budget
In Montgomery
$6,251,633 OutIoy
Calls for Scent Raise
In Busic Tax Rate

A public hearing on the pro-
posed 6,251 ,633 Montgomery County
budget for the fiscal year beginning
July will be held before the county
commissioners at pm. June Is in
the Rockville Courthouse.
The budget, presented to the
commissioners yesterday by County
Supervisor Irving G. McNayr, calls
for scent increase over the
present $1.88 basic county tax rate.
Taken under advisement was a
report by Whitman, Requardt e. As
sociates, Baltimore engineering con-
Germ, on the cost of building sewers
in the area adjacent to Rockville
and expanding sewage treatment
facilities in the town.
The concern estimated the cost
of putting in new sewers, a new
pumping station and new sewage
treatment plant at approximately
s496, 900, Of which $181 500 should
be borne by Rockville and 1914, 500
by the county. These facilities
would care for about 10000 people,
according to the report.
The cost Of providing additional
facilities by the town for the area
within its boundaries, with a "rea-
sonable" allowance for expansion,
was estimated at $238, 900. These
facilities, the report stated, would
care for about 5000 people.
Epidemic Is Feared.
Rockville now has little more
than 5000 residents with an addi-
.ional $500 persons living in ad-
jacent areas, the report said.
Residents of the Lincoln Park Sec
ton of Rockville have complained
of the danger of an epidemic in
their area because of overflowing
septic tanks, including one at
Lincoln High School.
Action was withheld on a zoning
petition by Louis Hurwitz for the re-
classification from residential A to
commercial D of about one acre at
Macarthur boulevard and Mohican
road, Glen Echo Heights.
Mr.. HurWitZ told the board at a
hearing in the Bethesda County
Building that he planned to erect a
shopping center comprising six
stores.
Strong opposition was voiced by
representatives of the Mohican Hills
Citizens Association. They argued
the property is surrounded by SINGLE
family homes and the proposed
shopping center is not needed.

A small, rocky cave, inhabited by
the two Humboldt penguins at the
Zoo, was the center of great atten-
ton from keepers today-for nestled
in a pile of straw there was a pen
guin chick, the second born here in
more than 10 years.
The gray, 5-inch baby broke out Of
its shell Saturday. Its parents had
spent 40 days and nights incubating
the egg, which was about the size Of
those laid by turkeys.
Since Saturday the chicks growth
has been tremendous" according to
Assistant Headkeeper Malcolm Davis.
The parents still equally divide the
tasks of keeping the ungainly baby
warm and feeding it.
The chick is getting a straight

A COMMUNICATIVE Council

Formation of communicable council to integrate
and coordinate work matters of common civic inter-
est was discussed at meeting last Thursday night
attended by Is representatives of eight Rockville organ
cations.
The Rockville Civic Association and the Rockville
Chamber of Commerce joint sponsors of the move
ment discussed at the meeting also attended by rep
resentatives of the Rockville Volunteer Fire Depart
ment, Rockcrest Citizens Association, High School and
Elementary P.-T.A., and the Laymens Association.
Thursdays meeting the second held to deter
mine if there is sufficient sentiment in favor of loose
federation council to which all Rockville organza-
tons with civic interest might belong. No organza-
ton under the proposal would be bound by action of
the COMMUNICATIVE group However, it is hoped that
when town-wide matters such the Improvement of
through traffic problems up for action, all organ
cations may become effective. The resultant public
sentiment expressed through such council functioning
as clearing house. would be truly representative
of the entire population
Sufficient interest thus far has been shown that a
third and more comprehensive meeting is planned to
which delegates OF all organizations are being invited
nasmuch as the project is still in formative stage
every town group interested in Rockvles beterment
is invited to send delegate to this meeting to be held
at place to be announced later
1t seems to the Sentinel that such an organization
could be of great value to the town-especiay both
the Chamber of Commerce and the Town Council par
tcipate-t should prevent misunderstanding and over
tapping of effort.

Early Stock Advance
Cut or Wiped Out
|As Demand. Fades.
By the Assoeiotsd Press

NEW YORK, Oct. ia fast rally
blew up before 1t got well started
in the stock market today.
After a steady price trend in
early dealings, sudden demand for
airline issues spanked a wavelet OF
buying that extended to most other
sections of the market. United
States Steel. for instance, hit a new
l948 high with gain of a point
at one time.
Demand faded away as rapidly as
1t had expanded. Gains were
trimmed or wiped out in many cases,
leaving the market with plus signs
in a small majority.
Turnover, which stepped up as
prices advanced, slackened on the
retreat.
Wall Street found little in the
immediate news to account for the
sudden interest in airline stocks.
It was suggested, though, the air
line group has Jagged behind the
main line Of stocks recently. 1t
was pointed out, too, that one of
the larger brokerage houses had
just published a study of airline
stocks which leaned to the opti-
mistic side.
