Liquor Control
Poll Begins in
PrinceGeorges
Civic Groups Test
Members Stund on
Dispensory Plan

Prince Georges civic groups, dis
satisfied with policies of the coun-
ty liquor board. today began poll
ing their members on proposal to
establish dispensary system SIM
liar to that of Montgomery Coun-
ty.
Delegates from more than 10
units voted to take the poll after
the question was debated at the
November meeting of the Prince
Georges Civic Federation at
Hyattsville last night.
The action came when Charles
F. Luebner, chairman of the Fed
eration's Zoning committee. de-
nounced the county liquor board
for "overruling citizens objections
and issuing licenses almost any,
where without regard to location
Of churches, schools or anything
else"
Mr.. Luebner moved to put the
Federation on record in favor of
the diSpensary plan but the
groups president, Walter F. Null
1igan, advised against immediate
approval. He said the matter had
been referred to member organiza-
tions for study and that their
views should be ascertained before
the Federation is committed.
Seek u. S. School Aid.
Two resolutions presented by
Mrs. Irma Bogdanoff, chairman of
the county affairs committee,
were adopted unanimously. One
seeks concerted action by civic
units in Maryland and Virginia
counties near the District to OBJ
tain additional Federal aid for
school construction, maintenance
and operation.
Under current interpretations of
congressional statutes providing
financial assistance to schools in
areas where there have been in
huxes of Government workers,
5000 of the 5000 children in
volved are not counted in the
Prince Georges pupil census on
which allotments are based. Similar
situations are believed to exist in
nearby counties.
The other resolution recon-
mends that the county commits
sioners require sealed bids before
making purchases or awarding
contracts involving expenditure of
more than $500.
Urge More Policemen.
Another resolution, adopted
after spirited debate, asks the
county heads to hire more police
men and to increase starting
salaries from $4,000 to $4,000 a
year. It was offered by Albert
Guidotti, chairman of the Police
and Fire Committee.
William r. Turner, representing
the Citizens Committee for Good
Government, spoke on the matter
of the county's "now-you-have-i it
and now-you-don't" surplus
Mr.. Turner, with the aid Of
charts and graphs, informed the
Federation that as of last June 80,
Prince Georges had $1,668,791 in
unappropriated funds and that at
the end of the current fiscal year
the county should have a surplus
Of $2,044,456.
The commissioners have denied
the existence of a surplus. They
contend the county actually is in
the red. Citizens have several
times watched both sides prove"
and "disproye" conflicting claims.

$40 Billion Addition
To Budget for Arms
Forecast by Mahon
BY the Assoeioted Press

Price increases and program re-
visions may add $40 billion to the
defense budget for the next
fiscal year, Representative Mahon.
Democrat. of Texas said today.
Instead of the $50 billion mill
tary budget foreseen by President
Truman in January, Mr.. Mahon
said, the outlay needed for defense
will be closer to $40 billion.
Mr.. Mahon Is chairman of the
House Appropriations subcommit-
tee which handles the defense
budget.
But while the 1852 budget may
be $40 billion more than had been
expected, he told newsmen. Con-
gress may be able to get by the
balance of this fiscal year on SO
billion less than had been indi-
Gated.
The present fiscal year ends on
June 80 and indications have been
that an extra $40 billion would be
requested for military purposes
before then.
Mr.. Mahon said his revised esti-
mates of defense financial needs
were based on conferences with
the Defense Department.
The department, he said, will
give the committee detailed esti-
mates of it's supplemental needs
for this year early next week and
will submit the breakdown of the
1852 budget late in April.
Additional money is needed
during the current fiscal year for
several reasons" Mr.. Mahon said.
Funds have not previously been
provided for paying of the aug
mented military forces. There
will be a lag in certain aircraft,
tank, guided missile and am
munition programs if additional
funds are not made available prior
to July /. This situation is a
result Of weapons being expended
in Korea and the necessity for
maintaining the level of our ac-'
celerated defense program"

Russia will have at least one
friendly delegation to support its
own position in the Japanese peace
treaty conference at San Francisco
next month-Poland.
State Department officials said

cepted the United States invita-
tion to attend the meeting.

to make it's position on the United
States British sponsored Japanese
treaty text clear.
The Russian government in its
acceptance a week ago said its
delegation at San Francisco would
have proposals to make on the
treaty.
These are expected to call for
radical changes which Poland pre-
sumably will support and the
United States, Britain and coun-
tries friendly to them will reject.
Czechoslovakia, another Soviet
satellite, also has been invited to
attend the conference as one of the
World War II allies which, was at
war with Japan. officials said no
reply has been received.
