"I could read it from my hotel

Miss Cummings even got the

She plays the feminine lead in

However, as an experienced

Miss Cummings is an articulate

pros somehow know what to do. OF
at least they find something to

don't know how to carry on"
AS they get more experience in

and separate legal counsel for the
board. appointed by the board and
answerable to it.
Better Mental Care Asked.
| On the State level, there was a
two-point proposal. The first was
an evaluation with a view toward
improvement of unsupported
mental health services in relation
to accepted modern standards and
State fiscal policy. and improve
ment of the procedures for citizen
participation in Government and
to ensure an equitable distribu-
ton of voting power.
Harley M. Williams outlined
seven legislative proposals of the
Arlington Civic Federation:
l. Give the county manager
authority to appoint department
heads and place him on an indefi-
mite term subject to removal by
the board.
2. Establish an integrated De-
partment of Finance by consoli-
dating the present Department of
Finance with the Offices of Treas
urer and Commissioner of Reve-
nue. and the proposed Department
of Real Property Assessment.
3. Confer on the County Board
power to investigate any county
department. officer or employe and
to subpoena witnesses, books and
papers and require sworn testi-
mony.
4. Grant authority to issue fran
chises for public utilities and to
acquire, construct and operate
public utilities.
S. Create the Office of county
attorney.
s. Elect County Board members
every two years instead of every
year. increase the size of the board
from five to seven members and
choose the nominees in non-par-
tiSan primaries.
Z. Seek legislation to prohibit
the mailing of anonymous litera-
ture during political campaigns.
Budget Change Proposed.
As an individual, Mr.. Williams
asked for a change in budgetary
procedure to allow more time be-
tween the presentation of the
budget by the county manager on
March Is and it's adoption by the
board on April 80.
County Manager A. T. Lundberg
recommended laws permitting the
State and its subdivisions to join
the Federal social security Sys-
tenn, and that such legislation be
sufficiently flexible" to protect
the county's existing system.
Clarifying legislation was pro-
posed by John Pershing, bond
counsel in New York, in co-opera-
tion with Henderson Miller, mu-
nicipal bond consultant. to pro-
vide procedures by which counties
may issue bonds for public i'm
provementS.

1O-Cent Pay Phones
Effect on Revenue
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE. Dec. The
Public Service Commission has
asked for an, estimate on the eff
feet Of a 10-cent charge from pay
phones mentioned in connection
with the Chesapeake & Potomac
Telephone Co.'S request for a rate
increase.
Commission Chairman John H
Hessey yesterday asked Chief Au-
ditor E. Edward Mclean to make
the estimate and report by next
Thursday.
The 10-cent coin box call was
not mentioned in the company's
formal application for higher
rates. but a press release at the
time indicated the increased
charge would be sought, Mr.. Hes
sey said.
Mr.. Mclean said he already had
learned from a company estimate
that where the 10-cent pay-phone
charges had been instituted. there
was a reduction of 25 to 35 per
cent in revenues.
Earlier, the auditor said the c.
& P. would have a net income of
$7,233.286 during the year ending
September 80. 1852, without any
increase in rates. Such a return
he added, would give the company
a return of 6.18 per cent on its
investment in Maryland.
BY revising its debt structure
Mr.. Mclean said the net income
could be increased to $7,972,834
or a return of 6.82 per cent.
The company is asking for an
additional net income of $2,310,-
900 which would require gross
increase in rates of $4,620,000
Opponents of the proposed boost
are being heard by the PSC in
sessions this week.

Belle Haven Residents
Win Sutton Ownership
OF Sewer System

Residents Of Belle Haven, Va,
have won ownership of the sewer
system in their subdivision, after
"a controversy that dates back to
1943.
Federal Judge A. s. Barksdale
decided the case last week and has
entered an order in Alexandria
District Court in favor of the Belle
Haven residents.
His opinion holds that the Gov
ernment was not entitled to take
over the Belle Haven sewers at
the time it installed the Holmes
Run sewer system in Fairfax
County about 10 years ago.
System Since Sold.
The Government. has claimed it
was permitted to condemn the
Belle Haven sewers by the Lanham
Act. but Judge Barkdale's decision
finds that was not the type of
condemnation contemplated under
the Lanham Act. Since the con-
demnation, the Government has
sold the entire system to Fairfax
County.
One Of the major issues involv-
ed was over the monthly sewer
service charges. The Belle Haven
residents claimed that they owned
the sewer system, and their
monthly sewer service rates should
not cover any amortization.
The county bought the Holmes
Run sewer from the Government
for $500,000, and part of the sew
'er service charges throughout
Sanitary District No. go to re-
tire bonds issued for that purpose.
The bond issue totaling SO million
also covers construction of a sew
age disposal plant and extension
of sewer lines throughout the dis
trict.
Monthly Charge Cut.
While the Government owned
the Holmes Run sewer system, the
monthly service charge was So.
The county has reduced the
charge to $3.50 since acquiring the
system several years ago.
James j. Corbalis. jr., county
sanitary engineer, said he would
meet with Government attorneys
to study the decision. He said
Belle Haven sewer fees have not
been collected during the contro-
versy. There are about $50 resi-
dents affected.
The Belle Haven system was in
stalled before the Holmes Run
trunk sewer, but was connected up
with the Federal system about 10
years ago.

A plan whereby the state OF
Virginia would contribute SIS
million for park lands in the
Northern Virginia area is before
the Arlington County Board for
study.
It was presented by Matt Hup-
Ipuch. chairman Of the Virginia
National Capital Parks Authority,
at a County Board-sponsored
public meeting last night at the
Courthouse to hear legislative
proposals to be presented to the
county's representatives in the
General Assembly.
Northern Virginia Is entitled to
a State park or something COM
Iparable, Mr.. Huppuch said. In
lieu of a park he suggested the
State allot SIS million for either
the purchase or development OF
park lands on an equal matching
basis with the Federal Govern
ment and a like amount Of land
or money by the localities.
19 Attend Meeting.
Only 10 persons attended the
meeting to which Arlington's dele
CATION in the General Assembly
had been invited. State Senator
Charles r. Fenwick and Delegates
j. Maynard Magruder and George
Damn had informed the board it
would not be convenient to at
tend but they offered to confer
later on any legislative program
the board may formulate.
A six-point program was advo-
Gated by Gustav Moe, chairman
of the Advisory Committee on
County Government Organization
and Procedure. Drafted by NAL
colin B. Miller, it recommended
Legislation to permit the County
Board to elect vice chairman; to
establish the Office of county at
torney to dispose of old county
records; to set the tenure Of the
county manager at the pleasure Of
the board; to establish the ap-
pointive powers of the county
manager, and to give the County
Board power to fill vacancies on
the board.
County Attorney Urged.
In reply to Board Member Daniel
A. Dugan, William Hassan. Demo-
cratic commemorative attorney
elect, said he favors the appoint
ment of a county attorney and
declared the board is entitled" to
its own legal council.
Mr.. Dugan took exception to a
suggestion of the Advisory Com
mittee that vacancies occurring
on the County Board be filled by
the board. He said he does not
favor the present procedure of
having the judge of the Circuit
Court fill vacancies but if the
board does it. it would only be
natural for the controlling fac
ton on the board to be Influenced
in its selection. He said he would
rather see an immediate election
by the people with the board ap-
pointing some one to serve in the
interim period.
On the local level the League
of Women Voters presented a
three-point program, urging full
policy-making powers for the
County Board with the manager
serving at the will of the board:
authority for the county manager
to appoint all department heads.

A proposed master zoning plan
for Alexandria appears to be head
ed for revision by city council
members before it is enacted into
law this month.
But the council refused last
night to delay adoption of the
plan. which is scheduled to go into
effect January /. They told an es-
Itimated 800 citizens at a public
hearing that the first reading o1
the proposed ordinance will be
held next Tuesday.
Second reading and adoption OF
the plan will be set for some time
between Christmas and New Year,
Day.
30-Day Delay Suggested
Councilman Marshall j. Beverley
suggested a 30-day delay in adop-
ton of the ordinance. He said
the council could hold hearings in
separate sections of the city in
that time. The motion lost by a
AZ vote.
Councilman Leroy S. Bendheim
declared the new zoning ordinance
must be enacted by January /
so it will govern the seven square
miles of Fairfax County land an
nexed by the city. He said the
plan would prevent haphazard de-
Ivelopment in the new area.
The heaviest citizen pressure
last night was exerted in an effort
to have the plan amended as il
relates to the old, historic section
of the city which borders on the
Potomac waterfront.
Use as Port Recommended.
The council agreed to single our
this area for continuing study BY
