planned that If the county fails
to approve the sewer program, the
city could tell the court that it
was in a better position 10 offer
sewer services than the county.
Approved by County BOARD.
The new argument began with
statement by Mr.. Van Meter
last night, in which he raised the
question as to whether citizens
will be voting for one plan, when
in actuality there is another. Mr..
Van Meter said the bono iorEeys
in reply to his inquiry said the

the plan involved in the flnanc-
ing
Mr.. Van Meter said he thought
it was somewhat disturbing If
the plan for financing arranged
by the county is different from
that set forth in the brochure
which contains the representations
on the basis of which the voters
are being asked to decide the is
sue"
Mr.. Corbalis pointed out that
the Fairfax County Board OF Su-
pervisors has approved the flnanc-
ing plan outlined in the brochure,
and has pledged to follow that
plan.

of controlled commodity trade
which has made inter-European
trading so difficult"
"On the Western German side,
it represents the combined effort

ordered not to arrest veterans un-
less they got too boisterous to take
care of themselves. The CARS
first encampment. also here, in
1866 got little attention from news
papers.
For Joseph Clovese. 105-year-
old Negro veteran from Pontiac,
Mich, GAR conventions are some
thing new. He arrived for his
first encampment yesterday with a
shiny new pair of Congress .gaiter
shoes.
Happy memories of IS and
other GAR sessions have both
Chapel and Barrett plugging for
more encampments.
Today's program had almost
everyone else lined up against
them. Robert E. Fellers. deputy
third assistant postmaster gen.
eral, was to be here to open the
sale on a special commemorative
stamp; it plainly says this is the
last encampment.
The auxiliary Of the Sons of
Union Veterans was to dedicate a
tablet already placed on the SOL
diers and sailors monument in
