|Gibbons Hits Personal Abuse

What this highly desirable

shown by the following published
claim:
1.-The proposed county man
ager form of government, how
ever. through its countrywide
method Of election of the Board
of Supervisors would tend to
place more power to spend tax
money in the hands of those pro-
viding the least proportion of the

This fanciful myth of the sub
urban resident who has the right

that has been used in Fairfax

1.-The record shows that these
claims, too, are false. The truth
is that the taxes paid and the
votes cast within districts of the
county are almost exactly in pro-
portion to the population of the
districts. Indeed, the three popu-
lous districts pay more than their
proportionate share of taxes.
What this means is that taxes
paid per person are higher in
these districts than in the three
sparsely settled districts"

Prince Georges Heads
Studying Turner'S
Charges on Finances

The Prince Georges County
commissioners today are studying
charges that they misled the pub
lie concerning county finances.
William r. Turner, former exec
utuve secretary of the Citizens
Committee for Good Government
in the county and now one of its
board members, made the COM
plant yesterday, in a letter to the
commissioners.
Mr.. Turner charged that total
county receipts have exceeded ex-
penditures and that the commits
sionrs failed to account for the
surplus money.
apparently" he asserted, "a
policy of your administration has
been to hide surplus funds during
the first three years of a term in
order that taxes can be cut in the
fourth"
Asks Four Questions.
The civic leader, continuing his
flood Of pre- election letters to the
commissioners. declared: "It has
been possible to mislead citizens
because you have not informed
them accurately and adequately
about the county's finances.
Noting that taxes were reduced
this year, an election year, Mr..
Turner said parents and teachers,
If they had known such surplus
funds were available. would never
have permitted the situation to
occur that has existed in our pub
lie schools during the past year."
Mr.. Turner requested the COM
missioners to answer four ques-
tions involving finances. One
asked: do you think it is more
important that Prince Georges
County be advertised as the coun-
ty with the low tax rate. rather
than the county with the good
Schools?"
Improvements Approved.
The commissioners, meanwhile,
approved proposed improvements
of portions of eight streets in the
Eastpines subdivisions, near River
dale, and directed County Engineer
Arthur w. Tayman to advertise
for bids. The thoroughfares, To-
Gated in the county's Special I'm
provement District No. 35. are Pat
terson, Powhatan and Oliver
streets; Sixty-third and Sixty
fourth avenues: Sixty-third and
Sixty-fourth places, and Eastpines
drive.
The county heads also voted to
turn over to the Washington Sub
urban Sanitary Commission a Pc
tition from residents of the Heit-
muller Estates subdivision, off
Riggs road. seeking extension of
WSSC sewer lines. The commits
sioners urged that such extensions
be started as soon as possible.
Individual septic tanks now serve
the area.
Pvt. Charles N. Weaver. county
policeman at Hyattsville, was
granted a military leave of absence
to enter the armed forces.
The regular weekly meeting set
for November 7 was changed to
November 9 because of the State
and County general elections on

Fairfax SET 10 ARGUE
For Dismissal OF
Annexation Suit

Fairfax County attorneys today
are preparing to argue for dis
miSsal of Alexandria, suit to
annex 71a square miles Of county
land.
The dismissal motion is to be
taken up as soon as the three
annexation judges and others in
terested in the suit finish a tour,
which started yesterday.
The county is asking for dis
missal OF the suit on grounds that
the proposed annexation would
split Sanitary District No. / of
Fairfax County. creating insur-
mountable problems of admins
tering the sanitary district and re-
tiring its SO million bond issue.
School Bond Issue Tied Up.
The dismissal motion also al
leges that no determination of
the county's bonded indebtedness
can be made at present because
a $10.5 million school bond issue
is tied up in litigation. The
bonded debt of counties and cities
involved in annexation proceed
ings sometimes is a factor in the
decision.
AS the case opened yesterday
in Fairfax Circuit Court, the
county tried to get Alexandria to
produce a report of it's annexation
advisers, r. Stuart Roger and AS
sociates. The judges, however.
upheld Alexandria's contention
that the report was confidential
and Fairfax was not entitled to
see 1t. The county's attorneys
noted an exception to the ruling.
The tour yesterday was con-
Quoted by Alexandria Planning
Director Philip Hall, who pointed
out the proposed new city bound
aries and led the judges through
the city's principal municipal
buildings.
To Take Most of Today.
Fairfax County's portion of the
tour is expected to take up most of
today. with county officials point
ing out the rural nature of some
land Alexandria seeks and pointing
to the urban nature of other
areas that Alexandria has not
asked for.
Judges hearing the case are
Paul E. Brown of Fairfax, Walter
T. Mccarthy of Arlington, and
jeff Walter of Accomac. Attorneys
taking part are: Robert j. Nc
Candlish, Hugh Marsh, James
Keith and Robert F. Davis on the
county's side and Horace Edwards,

Democrats Would Fire
McNayr, Montgomery
COP. Candidate Says

A Democratic victory in No.
vember would result in the dis
missal Of Montgomery County
Manager Irving @. McNayr and
County Attorney David Macdonald
according to a Republican member
of the County Council who is seek
ing reelection.
Harold F.. Hammond made the
prediction at a meeting of the
Woodside Park Civic Association
last night in Grace Episcopal
Church, Silver Spring. Mr.. Ham
mond was named to the Council
last spring to succeed DR.. Lewis
Merriam, resigned.
His statement brought an i'm
mediate denial from Mrs. Stella
Werner. a Democratic candidate
for the Council and former execu-
tive director of the County Charter
Committee.
"Doing a Good job"
"It would be very foolish for
whoever is elected, particularly for
the Democrats, to fire Mr.. McNayr
without giving him a chance" she
declared. Nor do the Democrats
intend to fire other department
heads not under the merit system
as long as they are doing good
job"
Mrs. Werner said Mr.. McNayr
had been inexperienced" when he
took office as county supervisor
four years ago but he is doing a
good job" now.
Mr.. Hammond also attacked G.
La Mar Kelly. jr., Mayor of Rock
vile and a Democratic candidate
for the council, as operating the

services provided.
Although Rockville residents pay

Disagree on Zoning.
"I am wondering, Mr.. Ham
mond said, whether Mr.. Kelly
would carry over his expensive
ideas to the county if he is elected
and would attempt to reduce
town costs by having the county
assume some of them"
Mr.. Hammond and Mrs. Werner
also disagreed on future county
zoning policies. Mr.. Hammond
said the Republicans would agree
to keep commercial and apartment
developments to a minimum.
In reply, Mrs. Werner contended
that zoning involves judicial ex-
perience" and told Mr.. Hammond,
you can't predetermine decisions
before you hear a case"
