Mr.. Srnoot. who recently resigned
as president of the Alexandria Com

ing election to the City Council, gave

Office in the federation.
His letter of resignation pointed
out that his candidacy for the City

litical activity it would be an in
justice for him to continue as an

Temporary Frame Buildings
Urged for Montgomery Schools

Inc construction OF temporary
frame school buildings was ad-
vocated today rs the most feasible
solution to Montgomery County's
problem Of inadequate facilities.
County Commissioner Wesley l.
Sauter. a partner in the Bethesda
construction company of Sauter g.
Gingery. disclosed he was making
such recommendation to the
Montgomery Board of Education.
Mr.. Sauter said standardized,
temporary structures would enable
the county to house the school
population without the necessity of
further crowding, or scheduling
classes in two shifts. When con-
struction costs decline sufficiently,
he said, the county could convert
the temporary buildings to per-
manent schoolhouses, with brick
veneer exter1ors and other additions.
Mr.. Sauter said his recommends
tion was made because current high
costs of building rule out the possi-
bility of providing all the classroom
space now required. He said Mont
gomery County could use the ex-
perience of the Federal Government

Fairfax Mass Meetinq
Told State Cannot AIIot
Extra Highway Funds

Fairfax County citizens last night
were told they could expect no extra
allotment from the State for the
improvement of the secondary road
system during the coming fiscal year
This statement was made by r. I.
Mount, district highway engineer
from Culpeper, at a mass meeting
held in the courthouse to discuss
the problem of getting the county
out of the mud"
Speaker after speaker from all
sections of the county said roads
are in "deplorable condition" and
many are impossible They criticized
operation of the Byrd road law,
passed in 1882 to relieve counties of
all responsibility for their secondary
roads.
Representatives of the State High
way Department outlined the history
OF the Byrd law and attempted to
show that the county had received
more funds in the past 10 years
from the State than it would have
received under the old basis.
No Change Before 1851.
Attending the meeting on behalf
OF the State Highway Department
were c. S. Mullen, chief engineer;
j. j. Forrer, chief maintenance en-
gineer, and J. H. Phillips, resident
engineer. They expressed sympathy
with the problems of Fairfax resi-
dents but said that nothing much
could be done unless the county
supplements State funds.
Mr.. Mullen pointed out that Fair
fax County can hope for no ma jor
change in ALLEGATION of funds before
1851, when a new Federal census
will have been taken. There was
general complaint that the county
had been unfairly treated because
there had been no census since 1910,
when the population was only about
half of what it now is.
Dr., George Schulz of Vienna, who
acted as chairman of the meeting,
suggested that a bill be introduced
at the next meeting of the Legisla-
ture to let the county withdraw
from the State highway system.
John H. King of Providence dis
trict disagreed with the proposal to
withdraw from the State system at
this time and complimented the
State Highway Department for. its
road work in the past few years in
the area adjacent to Falls Church.
Would Have to Levy Own Tax.
He pointed out that if the county
withdrew from the system it would
have to levy heavy road tax on
real property and would have no
road building equipment or super
visory force to carry on its road
program. Instead, he recommended
that it stay in the State system and
supplement present funds from the
State with a local levy.
Mr.. Mullen told the meeting that
If Fairfax County felt it can do a
better job by getting out OF the State
system, the State Highway Depart
ment will make no effort to stop it.
1t was decided to hold another
meeting of the group in the near
future.

Dismissal Of Petition
Asked on New Fairfax
Sanitary District

Dismissal of the petition for crea-
ton of Sanitary District No. 3 in
Fairfax County is asked in a motion
that has been fled in the county
Circuit Court BY opponents of the
proposed district.
Circuit Court Judge Paul E.
Brown had turned down the petit
tioners' request for the sanitary
district as proposed. after an all
day hearing last week. But he
held open formal entry of dis
missal order to give both sides an
opportunity to agree on a smaller
sanitary district He said testi-
mony showed some sanitary ar
rangement is needed for the Nc
Lean area.
The original petition asks crea-
ton of Sanitary District No. 3 in
the Mclean -Chesterbrook Woods
Langley area-an area of 4,480 acres.
The motion for dismissal, filed by
Attorney Hardee Chambliss, jr., de-
clares testimony at the hearing
failed to show that property in
cluded in the proposed limits of
the district, except Mclean proper,
will be benefited by creation of the
district"
It is further pointed out in the
motion that "undisputed testimony
at the hearing showed that sewer
and water lines cannot be provided
throughout the proposed area, "ex-
cept through a ruinous financial
burden on the said territory"
Proponents of the district, mean
while, were reported to be planning
to ask for creation of a smaller
sanitary district as suggested by
the court. Improvements in the
district originally proposed could
be built with a $1,700,000 bond issue,
according to G. Hubbard Massey,
Fairfax County consulting engineer,
who is advocating the district.
