Montgomery Planning
Improvement Of All
Roads in Disrepair

Montgomery County is contem-
plating improving all roads which
have fallen into disrepair and
have become virtually impossible
because of disuse, it was learned
today.
The County Council wants to
maintain such roads so they can
be used either as extensions of ex-
listing roads or as rights of way
for new ones.
Unless such action is taken, it
was said. the roads may fall into
the abandoned" classification and
revert to the abutting property
owners who dedicated them to
the county.
Under the county's proposed
road ordinance. County Manager
Irving G.. McNayr is required. to
classify all existing county roads
on or before July l and to indi-
cate whether they have been ac-
cepted for maintenance or are be-
ing maintained by the county.
Mr.. McNayr emphasized, how
ever. that he has not gone into
the matter fully and that he did
not know how many roads would
be affected, nor has he determined
the expense involved. Most of
the roads are in the rural area,
he said.
The plan calls for grading the
roads. where necessary, to make
them useable. There are no plans
at this time to pave them.
The work will be carried on as
part OF the county's regular road
improvement program.

ton in the program is entirely
voluntary and the cost of each
trip is financed by the students.
He pointed to the high per-
centage of those taking advantage
of the program as indication of
student enthusiasm for such mod
ern teaching. The flights are

Arlington School Costs
May Be Met Without
Tax Rise, Officials Say

Increased revenues may be suf-
f1cient to pay the higher costs of
operating Arlington schools next
year. obviating a tax rise, in the
opinion of one school board
member.
Barnard Joy. former board
chairman, made the prediction to-
day in estimating an additional
S500,000 will be necessary to run
the system next year without any
Improvement in the program.
The school board, however, does
not have the final say on its
budget. The County Board, Ar
lington's governing body, must set
the final figure and levy the taxes
necessary to balance the budget.
OF revenues from the present $3.45
tax rate, $1.65 goes to schools.
The school board expects to give
a tentative budget to the County
Board late next week. Thea a
public hearing will be held at 8
pm. March 16 at Thomas Jeffer-
son Junior High School, with
County Board members present as
observers. Later. the school board
will present its final requests.
Mr.. Joy estimated expenditures
for the current year at approxi-
mately $2,95O,Oo0.
The increase will be required,
he explained, because in Septem-
Der Arlington will have approxi-
mately 1000 more pupils, lis
more classrooms and 10 more
teachers than at the opening of
school last year.
The budget for next year, Mr..
Joy predicted, will exceed $4,000,-
900 if all suggested improvements
are made. These would include
purchase of school buses, increase
in teachers salaries and building
repairs.
Receipts this year from all
sources will amount to between
$3,300,000 and $3,400,000. This
amount considerably exceeds the
estimate, according to Mr.. Joy,
because IAN antiquated system of
accounting" was in effect when
the figures were computed.

fairfax School Bonds
Blocked as Result
OF Annexation Suit

Falls Church annexation pro-
ceedings have blocked Fairfax
County's plans for a $10,500, ,00C
school construction bond issue.
The County Schol Board was
advised last night that bond at
torneys will not approve sale OF
bonds until annexation is settled
Falls Church is seeking more than
10 square miles of the county.
The school board has a petition
from more than 1000 county resi-
dents requesting a referendum
and was prepared to ask the Cir
cult Court to set the election.
A School Board spokesman said
today another petition would have
to be obtained after annexation
is settled. This is because the
new petition could not bear sigma
lures of residents in the area that
Falls Church may annex.
A similar situation confronts
the county's proposed SO million
sewer bond issue The county was
about to sell the sewer bonds
when it learned Falls Church an
nexation proceedings had been
started.
The School Board last night
asked Commemorative Attorney
Hugh Marsh to seek court settle
ment of dispute in which the
county claims it is owed S24O,0OO
by Falls Church. The amount
represents the city's alleged share
of bond Indebtedness incurred be-
fore Falls Church became a sep

rumored that a proposed Falls
Church school bond issue may be
blocked by the dispute.
