City COUNCIL Studies
Dropping Of Vehicle
Fund From BUDGET

The Falls Church City Council
is reconsidering a proposal to pur-
chase q new fire truck for the
|city's volunteer fire department.
A $4,000 item, one-third of the
cost Of a 750-gallon pumper, was
dropped from the current budget
last month. The council last night
declined to say why the item was
dropped when DR.. William D.
Claudy. spokesman for the IRE
company. raised the question.
DR.. Claudy said removal Of the
item from the budget violated an
agreement reached with the coun-
Gil earlier. The agreement pro-
vided that the volunteer company
would pay one-third Of the cost
and the city would provide the
remaining two-thirds. The equip
ment was to be paid for in three
inStallments.
Truck Ordered.
The fire department placed its
order for the new truck on the
strength Of an agreement reached
IN March. DR.. Claudy said. Re-
moval OF the item from the budget
was unexpected and placed the fire
company in an embarrassing sit
uation, he declared.
The original agreement pro-
vided for the truck to be titled to
the fire department, but the coun-
Gil last night said it would recon-
slider the entire plan. It was pro-
posed that the council consider
purchasing the truck without a
contribution from the fire COM
pany and title 1t in the city's
name. City Manager w. r. Wood
bury was instructed to report on
the possibility of financing the
new equipment at the next meet
ing.
Ordinance for New Court.
The council read for the first
time an ordinance providing for
a juvenile and domestic relations
court within the city. The plan
calls for Municipal Court Judge
William Finley to divide his time

time and adopted at the next
council meeting.

Behind the Food PIuns
By WiIliom Hines

There are about a dozen food
clubs operating in the Washing
ton area.
They offer housewives mil
lionaires' menus on a hamburger
budget" and steaks and vegetables
at wholesale" Tied in with these
promises is the assertion that the
housewife who joins this or
that food club can save enough
money to pay for a home freezer
and then some.
How are the plans doing in
delivering on their attractive
promises?
Not very we'll, according to sur
veys conducted independently of
each other by The Star and the
Washington Better Business Bu-
reau. Compared with the prices
in effect every day of the week
except Sunday in supermarkets
all over town. the food clubs
prices are less than startling.
Some plans actually cost the
housewife more money than she
would have spent at the store for
the same items. Others promise
savings Of Is to so per cent and
actually produce savings of 5 per
cent or less.
Financing Offsets Bargain.
One food plan salesman told a
housewife that, if she joined his
food club-and bought $3.50
freezer-She would save 80 per
cent on her meat bill. She bought
a four-month supply of beef and
lamb. If she had bought exactly
the same items at regular super
market prices, the meat would
have cost her $2.48 more. She
saved 81 cents a month by buying
through the food plan. And the
carrying charges on her financed
food amounted to more than twice
that sum.
Another housewife bought.
among other things, four pounds
of cube steaks at $1.10 a pound.
The OPS ceiling for cube steaks
in supermarkets on that day was
$1.03.
BUY in quantity and save a lot
of money" was the advice of an
other salesman. A housewife took
his advice and stocked up on
orange juice concentrate-72 cans
at Is cents a can. She got an un-
known brand. On that day. she
could have bought ali the juice
she wanted, Of an established
brand. for 12ha cents a can at
the store. If she had waited a
couple of weeks. she would have
found the Juice on sale at 10
cents-in lots Of one can or one
million.
Above Market Prices.
Another food club member took
advantage of a money saving
deal and bought an eight-pound
pork loin at SO cents a pound. 1t
was selling down the street that
day for A cents.
One. woman was told that the
initials "NYD" opposite turkeys on
the price list Of a food club were
a code symbol meaning ready for
the oven. The turkey she got
at 81 cents a pound-came to her
New York dressed. which means
feathers missing but head. feet
and entraiis intact. She could
have bought a New York dressed
turkey for several cents pounc
less almost anywhere in town.
One food plan tells it's customers
that, because Of the steel strike
the food club offers the only brand
Of freezer available in the Wash
ington area. This statement. OBJ
viously designed to stampede
buyers. is untrue. According to Q
major appliance dealer here. u
could sell you a carload Of freezer,
'today-any brand you want"
