Fairfax Board
Votes 10 Join in
Sewage Survey
Supervisors Reserve
Right to Proceed
With Separate Plant

A proposed engineering survey
of joint sewage disposal prob
lens in nearby Virginia today had
the approval of the Fairfax
County Board of Supervisors.
The governing bodies of Alex
andria and Arlington last week
approved the plan, and the Falls
Church City Council is expected
to give it favorable consideration
at it's meeting Monday night.
The engineering survey was rec
commended by an interim COM
mittee on sewage problems set up
by the four Jurisdictions.
In agreeing yesterday that an
engineering survey should be
made, the Fairfax supervisors
said their action is not intended
to interfere with the county's
right to proceed with present
plans for a separate sewage treat
ment plant.
"Nor shall such action be con-
strued to mean that this board
will appreciate any monies for
the proposed study" the boards
resolution added.
James j. Corbalis. jr.. county
sanitary engineer who recon-
mended approval of the survey
plan, said the Interim Committee
so far has not asked for any
money, but can be expected to
do so as soon as an engineering
firm is selected to make the study.
Supervisor Arthur I. Shaffer,
who is a Fairfax representative
on the Interim Sewer Committee,
estimated Fairfax will be asked
to put up about $4,000. He intro
duced the resolution to approve
the survey.
Mr.. Corbalis told them money
for the engineering survey could
come from sanitary district funds.
He added that the Interim Com
mittee will see what might be
done about the already existing
bond issue in Fairfax. which is
committed to construction OF a
separate disposal plant.
Civil Defense Heads Quitting.
Guy Church, county civil de-
fense director, and George Stott,
civil defense co-ordinator, advised
the supervisors they want to give
up those positions by February l.
Mr.. Church said he no longer can
spare enough time from his real
estate business and Mr.. Stott said
he has been advised by his ply
sician to take it easy because OF
a bad heart. They urged the
supervisors to appropriate $4,000
to finance operation of the coun-
ty's civil defense set-up, but were
told the county has no money
G.. Wallace Carper, chairman,
told Mr.. Church and Mr.. Stott
that the county has no way to
raise additional funds until new
budget takes effect July l.
Mr.. Church and Mr.. Stott said
they plan to continue aiding civil
defense work and Mr.. Stott said
he will retain his post of executive
officer of the Northern Virginia
Regional Civil Defense Organiza-
ton.
The supervisors adopted a reso-
luton asking the State Highway
Department to finish widening
Route 236 between Annandale and
Lincolnia.

least that many times each month.
In his discussion of the new
attitude he wanted on the board.
Mr.. Sharpe declared:
THE law requires that all meet
ings of the Board of Education
shall be open meetings, open to
the public and the press, except
committee meetings dealing with
appointment of teachers. This
requirement of law Serves to en-
phasize the necessity for decorum
and dignified interchange of ideas
among the members of the board,
without recourse to unwarranted
interchange Of non-constructive
personal remarks"
The board worked its way
through the long docket without
trouble until it reached recon-
mendations from DR.. Corning
that a janitor be reduced in grade
at his own request. to the rating
of vehicle dispatcher and that a
clerk be reduced a grade because
the higher paying job was
abolished.
Mr.. Lee said he thought the
items should have come through
the Personnel Committee. which
he heads, if the board was going
to stick to its rules.
do it either way you desire
Mr.. Lee." DR.. Corning said. I'm
the past we have been bringing
such cases in without going
through the board"
Directed Through Committee.
IF we're to follow our rules
and be consistent, either all go
through the committee or none" "
Mr.. Lee declared. II don't know
the reasons for the reductions. I
want them to be held over and
| sent through the committee"
1.-THE practice always has been
to list them this way" DR.. Corn
ing said. IF you want them
through the Personnel Commit
tee, I will put them through. I
await your instructions.
DR.. Phillip T. johnson, board
member, then moved the items
be sent back through the Person
mel Committee and the board
passed the resolution.
''Are we going to follow the
rules or not is the question" Mr..
Lee continued.
That's going to complicate
tremendously your Personnel Com
mittee." DR.. Corning declared.
THAT makes it necessary to bring
before you the transfer of jan
itors."
DR.. Cannon came in with:
Again that's getting into ad-
ministration. The superintendent
shouldn't have to come to us on
that. It's a waste of our time.
I think we ought to let the super
intendent be the superintendent"
Mrs Philip Sidney Smith sug-
gested that the Rules Committee
of the board study the matter and
bring in a recommendation as to
procedure DR.. Cannon said he
moved the items be adopted right
then, but Mr.. Sharpe pointed out

Three Old Board
zoning Rulings
Upset in County
New Commissioners
Act After Hearings
In Hyottsville

Three zoning decisions made by
the old board Of Prince Georges
County Commissioners we're re-
versed yesterday by the new board
after rehearings at Hyattsville.
The new, all Republican board
in a session at the County Service
Building approved six rezoning re-
quests. rejected two and continued
hearings on two others until the
February 81 meeting.
In two of yesterdays rulings
which upset actions of the OLD
board, the new commissioners
turned down rezoning applications
which had been approved after
sharp controversies.
Silver Hill and Berwyn.
One application rejection was
filed by Anthony A. Carozza who
requested reclassification of prop
erty in Hillcrest Heights, Silver
Hill.
Mr.. Carozza asked rezonine
from rural residential to permit
construction of garden-type apart
ments. The other unfavorable de-
cision was on a petition presented
by Paul w. Baker and Ivadell
Baker for a coming change Of their
property at 46O0 Cherokee street
Berwyn, from residential to CO
commercial.
The one applicant who succeed
ed in gaining a zoning change ap-
proval from the new board after
rejection by the old was Elder w
H. Branson, president of the Gen.
eral Conference of the Seventh.
day Adventist Church.
Takoma Park Ruling.
Elder Branson was granted per-
mission to build a $35, 900, two.
family rambler type dwelling al
GIL Davis street, Takoma Park
In approving his request the
board rezoned the property from
a one-family house classification
The change was opposed by
Gordon Cole who said he re-
presented civic associations o1
the Prince Georges section Of
Takoma Park. Mr.. Cole con-
ceded that several single famil,
houses in the neighborhood hao
been remodeled and are being
used as two-family dwellings.
Commissioner H. Wilson Spick.
nall observed that such violations
had not been prosecuted because
there are not enough jails to hold
all the transgressors."
Secretary Post Filled.
The commissioner named Mrs
Louise Guidotti of TAIL Tilder
street, Bellemeade, to fill a new
post-that of secretary to the
president and the attorney to the
commissioners. The post will pay
$2.400 a year.
Other zoning applications ap'
proved were:
Redistribution Of property on Bunke'
Hill road, Mount Rainier from Residential
to C-1 commercial. The application wa.
filed by oriole Lodge No AZ. !. o. Q. F

Assembly Probe
Askedin Workat
Princess Anne
Whitworth Coils for
Dutu on Unauthorized
Job at Negro College
By J. B. Zotmon
Stor StuH CORRESPONDENT

ANNAPOLIS, Jan. The
Ways and Means Committee Of
the House of Delegates will be
asked to conduct a public hearing
to determine how and why $50, 900
worth of unauthorized work was
done at Princess Anne College,
the University of Maryland's Ne
gro branch.
Delegate Horace Whitworth,
Republican, of Allegany County, a
perennial critic of the university's
financial policies. said yesterday
he will request the hearing.
His statement, the latest in a
series of legislative attacks on the
Princess Anne project, high
lighted developments during yes
terday's session of the General
Assembly.
Contractors Bid Rejected.
The work involved a proposed
$271 900 agricultural engineering
building at Princess Anne. The
Board of Public Works last week
rejected the contractors bid on
the project. The Department of
Public Improvements and DR..
H. c. Byrd, university president.
have denied they had authorized
the work.
The House session yesterday was
marked by an announcement from
Speaker John Luber that Col.
David Mcintosh, State civil de-
fense director. will appear before
the Legislature after it adjourns
Tuesday to outline what has been
done under his program so far.
The House last week adopted
a resolution by Delegate John
McNulty, Democrat, of Anne
Arundel County calling on Col.
Mcintosh to make such a report.
Meanwhile, Attorney General
Hall Hammond warned the SEN
ate Finance Committee that
proposed bill to set up a $25 mil
lion State fund to help Maryland
communities build sewerage and
water systems might be an OPEN
ing wedge in a paternalistic sys-
tenn"
At hearing on the measure,
Mr.. Hammond said he was SYM
pathetic toward it's aims, but he
described it as "a step toward
centralization fraught with dan
ger"
No Guarantee of Repayment.
/ He pointed out the proposal
4 does not guarantee repayment Of
loans made under it.
Maryland's bonded Indebtedness
} already amounts to a $45 debt on
each citizen, he said, adding that
) such an amount is $40 above the
average in the other At States.
Supporting the bill was DR..
Robert H. Riley. director of the
State Health Department, who
pointed to the serious need for
help by many small communities
where health is menaced by in
adequate facilities.
Many of these communities, he
said, are willing to go ahead with
the necessary construction but
cannot finance bond issues because
of rising costs and their low as
sessable bases.
DR.. Riley emphasized the State
has a responsibility to help these
towns, particularly since the State
requires compliance with Mary
land pollution laws.

SdYs Beetles Are
insufficient for Control

Beetles are effective, but not
the only means of controlling
goatweed, suggests Bob Warden.
Bozeman, extension weed Spe-
cialist, who points out that
chemical controls have theiar
place too.
Warden was referring to the
recent interest in these beetles
that has led to the Importation
of Sc colonies of the insects and
their liberation in western
Montana counties this spring.
These beetles eat only goat
weed, which has become a ser
iouS pest in the area.
eff the beetles become eStab-
liShed-and information on 1913
and 1949 alterations make it
look as though they will-they
will dovat good job of cutting
down large infestationS," he
says: "But at least three things
are involved"
In the first place beetles will
probably, not be effective on
small, scattered patches. Sec
ond, it will take at least two
years, after planting before the
beetles can build up sufficiently
. to give any worthwhile control:
Third, goatWeed can be killed
by soil sterilantS and 2-4-D.
Beetles simply aren't a COM
plete cureall, he repeats. They
will probably reduce the goat
weed stands materially, but
after all they won't eliminate
the weed completely.
Another point to be consider
ed is that a series of cycles are
probable-the beetles build up,
eat most of the goatWeed, then
because of lack of food, many
of the beetles die off. While
the beetle population is low,
the goatweed will increase rap
idly from dormant seed in the
soil. When the beetle numbers
have built up enough to con-
troll the goatweed, weed num-
berS go down-and the cycle is
on again. But the high point
of goatweed infeStation should
be smaller in each succeeding
cycle.
Because of the time factor
and the fact that relatively
large infeStation of goatweed
are required for control, Ward
en- recommends chemical con-
trolls for areas with small, scat
tered infestation

Shocking Labor Relations

With the textile industry IN the

report has not yet been made pub

indicating that For all practical
