year program for rural primary
construction was set at about

+, Allotment by Counties.
Among highway construction
districts, Fredericksburg would
receive $l,607 800. Culpeper ST.

In commenting on the two
100000 allocations, a spokesman
for the highway department said
Route 301 between Bowling Green
and the Dahlgren Bridge is a soil
road with a THU topping. Truck
traffic on this route has increased
to a point where economic main
tenance, is impossible.
Moreover the construction of
the Chesapeake Bay Bridge by
Maryland and the Yorktown
Bridge by Virginia will cause alb
normal traffic increases on the
route. the department said. To
construct the 80 miles between
Bowling Green and the Potomac
River will require construction of
S miles a year. This, at $50, 900
per mile, is 100000 per year.

MiIkPriceCut
Ruling Awaited
Order Would Result
In Metropolitan Area
Retail Reductions
By Robert G. RoIIinos

The Virginia State Milk Com.
mission probably will rule tomor-
row on the question of reducing
milk prices in the Arlington
Alexandria Fairfax area, as re-
quested by three distributors and
the Maryland and Virginia Milk
Producers Association.
If a cut is ordered, It will result
in a reduction in prices also in the
District and Maryland by Chest
nut Farms-Chevy Chase Dairy.
which distributes Al per cent Of
the milk in the Metropolitan Area.
The Chestnut Farms Dairy Is
the only large concern here that
has not cut prices in the last week
in the District and Maryland.
Sales in Virginia. however, must
not be below the minimums set
by the Milk Commission.
Hearing in Alexandria.
The requests for permission to
drop prices in Virginia were made
yesterday in four-hour commits
sion hearing in Alexandria. After
the hearing, members of the three
man commission told The Star an
announcement OF a decision prob
ably will be made tomorrow in
Norfolk. prior to a hearing for
that area at 10 am.
Yesterdays hearing was called
at the request of the Alexandria
Dairy Products Co., the Chestnut
Farms Chevy. Chase Dairy and
Thompsons Dairy, all OF which
requested a price reduction. In
addition, County Manager A. T.
Lundberg, representing the Coun-
ty Board, asked for a drop, and
Commission Chairman Upton r.
Snavely said similar requests had
been received from the city OF
Falls Church and the Arlington
Branch Of the American Associa-
ton of University Women.
Several proposals were placed
before the commission.
Under that of the Chestnut
Farms concern the retail price OF
milk would be cut cents. This
was advanced by Maurice V.
Dawson, vice president of the
company, who suggested cutting
81 from the $6.44 per 100 pounds
now paid the farmer. Each 100
pounds of milk represents As
quarts, so that a 81 reduction
would amount to Q cents per
quart. 81
Most of the retail price reduc.
tions in the District and Mary
Hand have been l cent. although
in some instances they were 2
cents per quart.
/ Changes Proposed.
[ The changes proposed by
EThompson's Dairy and the pro-
ducers' association would result
in a 1-cent drop. The Alexandria
Dairy suggested a 69-cent reduce
tion in the price to the producer.
but M. H. Burchell. the company's
secretary treasurer. would not
state what he thought the retail
price should be.
Bruce B. Derrick. spokesman for
the producers association, went
further than the immediate sit
Iuation, and proposed two reduc-
tions and two increases OF so
cents per hundredweight annually
in the wholesale price.
The first change would be a
reduction in April. Then would
come an increase in July, followed
by a similar raise in October. The
fourth change would be cut on
January /. All changes would be
so cents per hundredweight.
1T is intended that the pro-
ducers receive the same price on
an average throughout the year.
and the consumers would pay the
same average price" MIR. Derrick
declared.
Mr. Derrick said he proposed
the reduction reluctantly"

Hearing Set Tomorrow
On 4-Mi||ion Budget
in Prince Georges

A tentative budget for the next
fiscal year calling for a record
expenditure of s4.351 ,237.3O and
recurring a 27-cent realty tax
increase will be considered at a
public. hearing tomorrow by the
Prince Georges County commits
ssioners.
Details of the proposed budget
were announced yesterday at the
commissioners regular weekly
session at Upper Marlboro. To-
morrow's hearing will be held
there also, starting at 10 a. m
The budget is expected to be
adopted by April IA.
The proposed budgets total is
$1,280,95919 greater than the
amount on which the current
$197 per $100 valuation tax rate
is based. but only $648,992.90
more than total expenditures
during the 1948-49 fiscal year.
In the present budget, the tax
rate receipts were augmented by
$631 ,96629 from surplus funds
and other sources. There are no
such funds available this year,
the commissioners reported.
Education Item Largest.
Largest item in the proposed
budget is the request of the county
Board OF Education. which is
about half of the total. The school
boards request for $2,333 ,638,
compared to $1,675,274 under the
present budget. is the only one
still in its original form. All others
have been trimmed or kept at
about tine same amount, according
to Linden Briscoe, clerk to the
commissioners. The school budget
would necessitate 24l2 cents of the
|2T-cent rise, he said.
The proposed budget does not
include plans for financing a pro-
posed $10.650;O00 bond issue for
new school construction, which is
pending before the Maryland
House of Delegates.
The school board also plans to
obtain $4,986,738 from State
sources for next years budget.
Under the tentative budget the
county will spend less this year
for new road construction but
more for road maintenance. A
total of $136,188 has been pro-
posed for road construction, COM
pared to $155,895 at present.
This is based on a 7-cent tax
rate. a reduction of cents. The
10-cent tax for road maintenance
has not been increased. but be-
cause of an increase in the as
sessed valuation in the county
the proposed appropriation will
be $194,554.
Hospital Request Ignored.
Requests for increased funds
from inc county Tor the county
Welfare Board and the Prince
Georges General Hospital were
ignored in the proposed budget.
A request to raise the tax rate
from 2 to 3 cents for the county
library system also was ignored,
but the system received $4,000
more than at present because of
the increased property valuation.
The police department, including
the trial magistrates, juvenile and
police court personnel and opera
ton, will get $240,000 under the
new budget. $4,000 increase.
In other business yesterday the
commissioners approved enlarge
ment of Special improvement Dis
trict No. 80. Cheverly Manor, to
include two additional blocks, and
granted a permit to the Hillside
Volunteer Fire Department, fol-
lowing q hearing, to conduct a
