Some members of the Arling-

had to wrestle with their con-
sciences over whether to let the
public know about a critical
audit report, minutes of a recent
meeting disclose.
The audit by T. Coleman An
drews 81 CO. criticized certain
budgetary practices but found
that "the affairs of the county
are generally well conducted"
The question of when and how
to release the report was brought
up during the enforced absence
of reporters from the meeting
November 3. The board had
gone into executive session to
discuss the subject of rent con-
troll and reporters waited out
side the door.
Subsequently. two reporters
made an attempt to enter the
room but they were motioned
out. Still later. the board went
into open session" but the wait
ing press was not informed of
this. The board discussed the
audit and then adjourned.

|B-Mile Fairfax Area
Proposed for City

An area of Is square miles is
being considered for the proposed
new city of Mount Vernon in Fair
fax County.
Boundaries of the proposed new
city were reported last night at a
meeting of the citizens commit
tee studying the feasibility of in
cooperating part of Mount Vernon
Magisterial District into a first
class city.
The proposed 25-square-mile
area would take in most of Mount
Vernon Districts 33 square miles,
excluding territory around Fran
coma. The population of the pro-
posed new city is estimated at
4O, 900.
John D. Gosnell, chairman of
a committee on boundaries, said
the northern line of the new city
would follow the proposed new
southern boundary of the city of
Alexandria after annexation.
On the west, the new city boun-
Diary would follow Route 613 for a
short distance and continue in the
same direction to Fort Belvoir.
The limits of the Army installa-
tion would form the rest of the
boundary on the west and south.
The Potomac River would provide
the eastern boundary.
Robert Taylor, chairman of a
committee studying the cost of
operating the proposed new city,
said it appears that residents of
Mount Vernon district could have
the same services for a lot less
money If the area was incorpo-
rated.
Ralph L. Payne: chairman of
the charter committee, recon-
mended a charter patterned after
Alexandria's. Copies of a pro-
posed charter are to be circulated

Elementary School

Alexandria's plans for a new

awry because of the defense effort,
according to School Supt. T. c.

The city's enviable position in
lacking crowded classroom condi-
tions, no halliday sessions and
no "tar-papered covered shacks''
for classes may work against the
board in seeking steel allocationS,
Mr.. Williams said.

The board has voted to explore
the possibilities of establishing

Textbooks now are rented to
elementary school pupils for $1.50
a year and to high school students
for So. In the elementary schools
the State will pay 80 cents a stu
dent toward the cost of a free
textbook system.
Mr.. Williams told the board a
similar study two years ago indi-
Gated it would cost Alexandria
$4,000 to adopt books approved
by the State Board of Education.
He added, however, he was in IA
vor of a new survey.
In his report to the board, Mr..
Williams said school cafeterias
went in the red $3,585.92 during
September, as compared with $3,-
915.42 for the same month in

in part to the increased Federal

program this year. =
