County Council Asked
To Extend Period for
Petitions on zoninq

The Montgomery County Board
Of Zoning Appeals has asked the
County Council to extend the time
within which zoning violators
may petition for variances on
grounds of undue hardship, 1t
was learned yesterday.
According to Board Chairman
Louis A. Gravelle, the council last
June set September / as the dead
line for such appeals.
He pointed out. however. that
many property owners found vio-
lating the zoning ordinance and
whose applications for zoning re-
classification were denied by the
council had failed to petition the
Board of Zoning Appeals within
the three-month period granted by
the council.
Ask Extension to Spring.
He said the board suggested
that the council extend the dead
line to April or May. 1851.
The petitions of at least six
persons operating tourist and
rooming houses in a residential
A zone in violation of the zoning
ordinance are before the Board
of Zoning Appeals. Their appli-
cations for zoning reclassification
to legalize present use of their
property have ben denied by the
council.
A seventh petition was ap-
proved by the board in an opinion
made public several days ago. It
was filed by Mrs. Margaret Walsh
Nagle, who operates apartments
in her home at 6622 Broad street,
Brookmont. Her petition for
zoning reclassification from resi-
Dental A to c (apartments) was
denied by the council last Oc-
tober on the ground it's approval
would constitute 'spot" zoning.
First OF Its Kind.
In its opinion, the first of its
kind, the Board of Zoning Appeals
held the county was "estopped"
from requiring Mrs. Nagle to
comply with the zoning ordi-
nance.
The board said the county knew
the house was being erected in
violation of the ordinance 10
years ago because the building
plans showed an outside stair
way, which indicated there would
be apartments in the dwelling.
Two years later, according to
the board, the owners were re-
quired to remove the outside
stairway but the building in
spector never looked inside the
house to see if there actually were
apartments.
1.-THE violation" the board de-
clared, "was due in the first place
to the negligence of the building
inspector and the then Board of
County Commissioners, who had
jurisdiction over such inspections.
To require compliance with the
coming ordinance now by elimi-
mating the apartments would
create an undue hardship on the
owners"
The board emphasized, how
ever. that It's decision In the
Nagle case did not mean relief
will be granted to everyone op-
Grating apartments in their
homes.

Arlington Deficit Put
At 100000 by Green
Unless Income Rises

A 100000 deficit is facing Ar
lington County unless tax collec-
tions increase sharply, Treasurer
John Locke Green said yesterday
The County Board, informed by
Chairman Daniel A. Dugan of Mr.
Green's prediction, voted to ask
the treasurer TO appear at the next
board meeting January l3 to report
on tax returns.
The county treasurer said he
predicted a deficit at the md of
the current Ilscal year because tax
collections at present are running
about 8 per cent behind the
amount collected at this time last
year."
Other Action Delayed.
Mr.. Dugan said he was certain
that the county will not go in
the red this year."
In other action, the board ?oted
to delay consideration of plans
to acquire the 35-acre Fort Rey-
nolds tract for a park.
Malcolm Miller, attorney for
the board in the negotiations, said
that Mark Winkler, Washington
real estate man, had decided to
withdraw his offer for the present.
Mr.. Winkler is willingsto enter
into another agreement with the
board for outright sale of the
property for 100000, Mr.. Miller
said. .
-@ Would Pay Off Debt.
The original proposal was that
the board would pay off $160. 600
debt against the property in the
next two years. Under this agree
ment, the county would have
acquired Is acres of the property
Immediately and the rest would
have been made available over a
10-year period. The only payment
by the county in addition to the
$160,000 would be interest on the
debt.
Mr.. Miller said Mr.. Winkler had
been advised by his attorneys not
to go through with the original
transaction because Denham T,
Rucker, Commonwealth's attor-
ney, chad made a ruling that the
transaction would not be a gift
and Mr.. Winkler might have to
pay capital gains tax"
January Is Date Set.
At the suggestion Of Boare
Member Mrs. Florence Cannon, Il
was agreed to inform the State
Compensation Board that a pro.
posed ordinance setting up a full.
time assessment Office is sched.
uled to go into effect January Is
Pay Increase Urged.
Mr.. Dugan described the deatf
Of Mrs. Elizabeth H. Agnew, for.
mer clerk of the board, as "s
great loss to the board" County
Manager A. i. LunQperg was ap-
pointed as acting clerk.
John Paul Jones, the attorney
who retires today as president Of
the Arlington County Firemen's
Association. urged the board tt
increase the pay of police ane
firemen is per cent in the mex
fiscal year "to give them, a living
wage"

work was announced by 1t. Franz
Palmer of the police department

ltation last year.

throws away tie, seldom has one cleaned, and after wearing them for about ten months passes them on to his younger brother or son.
 Ties are growing bigger all the time. Before World War II the average length was 46 inches, width 3-3/4 inches. Now that more tie shows because of the dis appearance of the vest, the aver age tie is 48 to 54 inches long, close to 5 inches wide.
 The necktie designers stop at nothing. T h ey have made ties with actual photographs printed on them, ties with hand-painted portraits, ties that light up in the dark, ties of every possible mat erial. including metal. leather and fur.
 One enterprising manufacturer recently turned out a series of ties marked "It's boy" and "It's girl" to be sent to new fathers. With every three dozen he throws in one proclaiming "It's twins"
 And here's a final word of eau tion-when selecting the Fathers Day tie. consider your male. If he's an old-school-tie man don't give him a phosphorescent hand painted model, and if his favorite color is red, let him have it.

WORLD WAR II BANNED IN ITALY'S SCHOOLS

ROME, (P) - World War II? Whats that? Officially, Italy'S postwar high school graduates have never heard of it. Nor, in the classroom, have they ever heard of Benito Mussolini.
 For the past five years, in Italy's grammar schools and high schools, history has stopped in 1913. Allied Military Government first placed a ban on secondary school teaching of Fascist history and the events leading up to the war.
 The occupation author i ies wanted to avoid classroom con troversies." They ordered refer ences to Mussolini and Fascism edited out of textbooks, some times with the rough eXpedient of paper and paste. The ban has never been revoked, although AL lied military rule ended with the Peace Treaty in l947. An educa- ton ministry commission has been studying the problem of ob- jective presentation in the class room of the controversial Fascist era, but a spokesman said he does not know when they will finish the job.

"OUT OF ORDER"
By Hugo $. Sims

The suggestion of former president Herbert Hoover that the United Nations be reorganized without the communist members sounds somewhat sensible to many Americans in view of the disturbing conflicts within the organization
 Nevertheless the Prime Minister of Pakstan, the Prime Minister of India and the representative of the Philippine Republic have promptly served notice that the suggestion is 'out of Order.'
 The spokesmen of these countries, doubt, take cognzance of the danger that might engulf them of Russia goes march, They probably realize that in the organization of the United Nations they may hold something of balance of power between the western powers and the Communistc group.
 Certainly they have nothing to lose by maintaining the United Nations and much worry about if the de ocratic nations of the earth get together in federation of states based the concerted cooperation of free peoples and free peoples alone.

for building expansion, and the city
planning idea was given as a means
of offering suggestions that might

problem.
The $650,000 includes not only a

Discuss Sites

playground space cut, since they
feel there will be more and more
demand for such play spots in
the future. Therefore the question
of site is paramount. Suggested
sites were the Girls playground
north of Prospect school, the front
yard at Shaw with building ter
raced to tie in with that building,
and ground to the northeast of
Shaw, providing a tie-in added
gym.
1t was evident that many do
not favor the lot south of Prospect
School, due to possible infringe
ment on a playground, also on
that lot. In a chart, Mr.. Nelson
showed proposed gym sizes against
lot sizes, and said removal of a
band house from the south lot
would provide room there with
out touching the abutting boys
playground.
DR.. Korb gave the figures re-
quired for standard sized gym
floor, 5Ox87 feet. Since two floors,
one for the girls and one for the
boys will be necessary, the site
must be adequate to take double
that sized floor. City and state
building regulations regarding
school buildings enter into the pic
ture, also, he said.
The concensus of opinion is the
need for long-range city planning
