Fairfax School Board
To Ask Date Be SET
For Bond Issue Vote

The Fairfax County School
Board has agreed to ask Circuit
Court Judge Paul z. Brown this
week to set a date for a referen-
dunn on sos million school
construction bond issue.
The request for the referen-
dunn. postponed earlier because of
Falls Church annexation suit
now in court, was indorsed by
Mitchell & Pershing. New York
bond attorney: Hugh B. Marsh,
Commonwealth's Attorney. and
John Alexander. school board
counsel.
The board. meeting at Fairfax
yesterday. received an offer from
the developers Of the 2,1oo-unit
Shirley-Duke apartments to build
two four-room school units on Lit
tie River turnpike near .Alexan-
dria. The board would pay rent
for use Of the structures. The
rental price would apply on even
tual purchase Of the schools by
the board.
Another Agreement Sought.
A similar agreement, for a four
room school, is being discussed
with builders of Willston Apart
ments near Falls Church.
The principal Of Falls Chuch
High School. Maj. Gen. William S.
Rumbough, informed the board
that he expects between 1880 and
1900 students to enroll in Sep
tember. This figure is approx
mately 800 more than reasonable
capacity"

the advisability of shifting 9Th,
9th and 10th grade pupils who
live in the Mclean -CheSterbrook
area from Falls Church High
School to Fairfax High School for
the 1901 session.
Falls Church Has Plant.
The Falls Church City School
Board already has preliminary
plans for a high school it hopes
to complete by the opening of the
1872 session. Opening of this
school would transfer students
living within Falls Church from
the present county-o operated high
school to the new city school.
: County Supt. w. T. Woodson
said that if the city's annexation
suit is successful, the county
would no longer need its present

brook is included in the 1915
square miles of territory the city
wishes to annex.

Maryland Tobacco
Sale Yields A.33c
Average on First Day
By J. l. Michoel

Loose leaf sale of Maryland S
1949 tobacco crop yesterday got
off to a start as smooth as the
chant of the auctioneer.
A total Of 1869, 400 pounds was
sold to domestic and foreign buy
ers at an average of 49.33 cents a
pounds cents less than on open
ing day last year.
The highest average reported
by the eight markets in Charles
and Prince Georges Counties was
52,42 and the lowest 4497. A
ninth, at Wayson's Corner in
Anne Arundel County reported a
round price of Sill.
The differential in averages at
the three markets in Hughesville,
three in Upper Marlboro, one in
Waldorf, and one in La Plata,
was due to the variation in quail
ity of the offering. Farmers in
some sections of Arundel, Calvert
Charles, Prince Georges and St.
MaryS counties apparently decided
to bring the roughest part of
their crops first.
Prices ranged from 68 to 10
cents a pound for leaf lower in
uqality than that of the 1948
crop which, at initial sales,
brought the same top price and
the minimum of IL cents. Later
in the season choice grades
reached a maximum of rs cents.
The same increase is expected this
season.
In those instances where bids
were below Government support
levels, the Maryland Tobacco Co.
operative, a locally operated and
Federaly financed loan agency
took up the slack. Farmers almost
without exception said they were
satisfied with prices and convinced
that the Government rating and
price support system means eco
nomic security for the $40 million
a year industry.

Arlington federation
Asks Vote on Bonds
For Sewage Plant Job

The Arlington Civic Federation
last night called for referendum
on bond issue to pay for en-
larging the county sewage treat
ment plant.
A resolution to the effect was
introduced by Mrs. Robert w. Cox
for the Health and Welfare Com
mittee.
Arlington's plant has a daily
capacity of S million gallons, but
about rs million gallons daily
must be emptied untreated into
the Potomac River.
The county has had plans for
the plant addition for some time,
but nothing has been done about
financing it. A recent estimate
put cost of the work at $1.8 mil
lion.
Bond Question Referred.
The federation referred the
question of financing the proposed
bond issue to the Revenues and
Expenditures and Public Utilities
Committees.
In another move directed at
cleaning up ArlingJon's WATERWAYS,
the federation asked County
Manager A. T. Lundberg to have
the Health Department survey pol
luton in Lubber and Spout Runs
and other streams.
A protest to the State Corpora
ton Commission and the Wash
ington, Virginia & Maryland
Coach Co. (Arnold Lines) over the
recent 100 per cent increase in
bus fares for school children was
voted on motion of Lawrence
Knappen.
The federation also authorized
the Public Utilities Committee to
continue participation in the bus
fare case before the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
Fares Were Increased.
Under a recent sec order fares
on school buses were raised from
to 10 cents a trip. Arnold Lines
and the Alexandria, Bancroft &
Washington Transit Co. supply
buses for use by schools.
! On motion of Tam Deering of
the Recreation Committee the
federation voted to ask the county
to acquire recreation sites recon-
mended by the Leeway, Parkway
and New Arlington Citizens AS
sociations. County board action
in renting voting machines for the
fall elections was commended by
the federation on motion of Har-
ley Williams of the Good Govern
ment Committee.

Govt Needs More Revenue; Taxes Must Go Up

WASHINGTON (P)-Secretary of the Treasury Snyder said today government outlays may jump 50 per cent to a 67,50O,OO0,OO total in the next fiscal year starting July 1.
 He said this may be the result of "vast increases in defense costs" that will require livery sub- stantial tax increases"
 Snyder, appearing before the Senate finance committee, urged enactment of President Truman's $4,OOO,OOO,OOO "excess profits" tax bill. He said substitute bill recommended by the House tax writing committee would raise only O,OOO,OOO annually.
 "The events of the past few days in Korea and in other parts of the world testify to the com polling need for the enactment of additional profits taxes at this Congressional session." Snyder said.
 "The overriding consideration at this time is the governments need for more revenue"

GREAT RESERVOIR OF NARROWER

A great reservoir of manpower now wholly unused will be available to the nation if the Seectve Service accepts recommendation of the Army Surgeon-Gen- erals office that it discontinue it's current practice of dsoualifying large numbers of because of failure to meet present requirements.
 Col. Warner Bowers, Chief Surgical Consultant for the Army recently told the Association of Military Sur geons at their convention that instead of classifying registrants 4F and thus permanently disquafying them from any service whatsoever, the committee has recommended that those found unfit for general service should be deferred and classified for limited duties in accordance with their capacities
 The recommendation has much that it is hard to understand why it has not been put in force earlier than this Hundreds of thousands of men, thoroughly capable of making contribution to the military services have been relieved of the obligation of service the ground of physical disability and mental defi- cences. Practically all of these in some capacity and, by doing, relieve abebodied man for belgerent service..

 "I'm going to bring this map into the Senate and show how 13,- 000,000 persons in those countries live in the same attitudes as Alas ka, and have developed prosper ous countries"
 His object, he said, is to answer opponents who in four days of de- bate have argued that Alaska's climate has preve lted its develop ment and will prevent it's devel- opment in the future. Delegates to Congress from Alaska and Hawaii said Saturday they are more than ever con- vinced that the Senate would pass the two pending statehood bills if they were permitted to come to a vote.
 Delegate Harrington R.-HawaiD estimated that less than 20 Sen ators are involved in "filibuster tactics" blocking a Senate vote on the motion to consider the Alaska statehood bill on its merits"
 He blamed lone Republican Senator Butler NebD-and the Dixiecrats."
 Delegate Bartlett D.-Alaska said the chance of passing the bills at the current session does not look good.
 "But,' he said, ''it seems to me that the Senate debate this week makes it's clear that the opposi- ton is numerically much smaller than the advocates of statehood ever anticipated. If the bill comes to a vote it will be passed by a bigger majority than we expect ed."
 Harrington said he is asking Senators favoring statehood to make speeches in the Senate ito demonstrate the overwhelming support existing for the two state hood bills"

 2. Named former Florida Cover nor, Willard F. Caldwell, Jr., as it's S17,50O a year administrator.

A TRIPLE THREAT

 It will be good play if it works. Stanley Nichols, for reasons with which not familiar has resigned U S. Marshal in the Fourth Division.
 His resignation is to be effective January l, 1951 According to a dispatch from Fairbanks, the Democratic Divisional Committee has recommended Frank Barr to replace Nichols

LibrdrY Notes

1.-The Road Ahead, Americas
creeping Revolution by John T
Flynn. The outspoken anti
New Dealer and advocate OF
free enterprise launches a fierce
attack on economic planning, a
term which he considers syn
onymous with both socialism
and communism. He cites Brit
ish economic DEVELOPMENTS in
the twentieth century as a pre-
cedent already being followed
in the u. S. for the introduce
ton of socialism by impercep-
tible degrees.
The author says he wrote
this book to answer a question
that practically everyone is
asking: Where are we heading?
More people ask that question
than any other. He thought it
was time for someone to an
swer it, candidly and with blunt
facts.
A book every thinking Amer
lean should read. 1t was con-
denSed in the February. 1850
issue of the Readers Digest.
Patrons may find this book in
the Big Horn County Library
as we'll as the Readers Digest.
