Group Offers 10 Build
Project in G|enmont
If Sewer Is Extended

-Four Washington businessmen
today announced they plan tc
build 1000 homes and a shopping
center on a 23O-acre tract in Glen
mont, Md, if the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission
will extend it's Northwest branch
sewer line.
The businessmen said they are
joining forces with a group OF
home owners in the Arcola SUBJ
division of Wheaton, who have
been seeking extension of both the
Northwest branch and Sligo Greek
sewer lines.
- Arcola area homes-there arc
almost 100 of them-noW use sep
tic tanks, and the county health
department has prohibited further
home building there until sewer
lines are available because the
hard clay soil is unsuitable for
septic systems.
The Wheaton Citizens Associa-
ton and the Allied Civic Group of
Silver Spring also have urged the
Sanitary Commission to extend
the lines.
The four businessmen are Ed
ward c. Baltz. president of the
Perpetual Building Association;
Thornton w. Owen, former presi-
dent of the Washington Board of
Trade; Edward L. Strohecker, ST.,
real estate man, and David S.
Moore, an investment broker.
The four men own $50 acres
OF land bordered by Layhill road,
Georgia avenue and the Glen
mont Colesville road.
They have retained John r.
Reeves as their attorney. Mr..
Strohecker said they are prepar-
ing a petition for hearing before
the sanitary commission. The
petition will argue that enough
homes will be built in the area to
pay for the extension of the sewer
line. Mr.. Strohecker said the
petition also will ask the State
Legislature to authorize the sani-
tary commission to sell bonds for
the project.

e|ay|ncredses.
TaxPdyments
Receipts Double
As Owners Respond
Quickly at Arlington

Arlington tax receipts nearl,
doubled after property owner
learned last week that the count,
needed money to pay it's teachers
County Treasurer Colin c. Mac,
Pherson said one taxpayer cam,
into his Office with the remark
Il understand you need a LITTLE
money" and handed the treasurer
two checks totaling $4,000. An.
other check received last weel
was for $3.50.
News Of the county's lack Of
funds to pay salaries due October ,
was published on September %
Receipts on September 80 totalec
more than 1000, nearly double
the usual daily receipts for this
time Of year. Taxes are not due
until December S.
Suit Causes Complications.
The lack of funds was the re-
suit OF a suit against three School
Board members who are Federal
employees. The School Board had
expected to follow it's usual policy
OF borrowing money to pay ex-
penseS until tax receipts begin
to pile up in November. A bank
declined to lend money this time
because of the litigation.
The additional funds sent in
by taxpayers were not needed be-
cause the County Board lent the
School Board 100000 in time to
meet the october / deadline. The
money on hand, however, viftu-
ally assures sufficient funds to
pay teachers on November /. If
there is not enough ready cash
for the payroll, the County Board
has authority to lend additional
funds.
Mr.. MACPHERSON said yesterday
he has received a letter from a
group OF teachers thanking him
and the County Board for their
action in the financial crisis.
$4,000 in Delinquent Taxes.
The treasurer said an agrees
sive program of collection of de-
hnquent taxes yielded more than
$4,000 in September. There is
still about $550,O00 in personal
property taxes due the county
for the years 1947-51. Mr.. Mac
PherSen said he has scheduled a
conference with Assistant Com
nonwealth's Attorney Peter j.
Kostik to plan further measures
against those people who are
ignoring their tax liability over
q period of years"
Tax delinquency for 1861 was
lower than for any other year on
record. the treasurer said.
The County Board has author
lied Mr.. MACPHERSON to publish
the names Of persons whose per-
sonal property taxes are delin-
quent as of October Is. The
names Of persons paying the de-
linquent taxes by that date will
not be published, he said.

-Four in Maryland Race
In Accord on Issues,
Women Voters Find

At least four of Maryland's
congressional candidates are ir
almost complete accord on sew
eral major political issues. the
States League of Women Voters
revealed today.
The League sent QUESTIONABLE.
to the Senatorial candidates, Rep.
resentative Beall, Republican, anc
George P. Mahoney, Democrat. A
copy of the queries also was
mailed to the 5th District House
aspirants. Richard E. Landlord
Democrat, and Frank Small, jr.
Republican.
Four Questions Asked.
The question we're:
/. What should United States
policy be toward the United Ma.
lions? Toward aid to underde.
veloped countries?
2. What steps should Congress
take to halt imitation?
3. Where can federal expendi-
lures best be cut?
4. In what pieces of legislation
are you especially interested?
All four candidates agreed that
the U. N. must be supported and
strengthened with American CO.
operation.
Toward aid to underdeveloped
countries. Mr.. Beall, Mr.. Mahoney
and Mr.. Landlord expressed a de-
sire to help other nations if they
tried to help themselves. Mr.. Ma
honey and Mr.. Landlord voiced
concern over the handling of aid
funds while Mr.. Small warned
against diSsipating American
economic and military strength
abroad.
"Our first obligation is to the
people of the United States" he
said.
On the second question, Mr..
Beall, Mr.. Landlord and Mr.. Small
seemed to agree that Government
spending must be reduced and
on a more businesslike
basis if imitation is to be curbed.
Mr.. Mahoney criticized what he
called q careless attitude" toward
All Would Cut Waste.
All agreed tremendously on
question No. 3. Stop Government
waste, they said, to reduce Fed
eral spending.
On question No. 4, Mr.. Beall
and Mr.. Mahoney worded their
answers in almost identical terms.
Both were interested in legislation
which will benefit the United
States.
Mr.. Landlords answer to this
query brought forth an interest in
d more realistic approach to Fed
eral appropriations and budget
procedure. Mr.. Small listed uni
versal military training as his
chief interest. Mr.. Small told
The Star that his attitude toward
UNIT was based on whether or
not this country faced future of
continuing warfare" If the world
regains some semblance of peace,
he said, he would oppose the
measure. But. he added, if war
he would favor some
form Of military training for the
Nations youth.

Richard E. Landlord, Annapolis

tees recommendation that the

vitalizing." means that Mr.. Small
should resign at once for the
good of the commission and for
the good of the taxpayers of
Maryland"

The Democrat said that Repub-
lican Gov. McKeldin must not
let the recent gift of a $4,000
punch bowl influence his actions"
and if Mr.. Small refuses to quit
the Governor should fire him.
Mr.. Landlords statement fol-
lowed Senator Sybert's demand
that the Legislative Council find
out whether pressure had been

the punch bowl and IL cups for
the Governors mansion. He said
there were signs of "a great deal
OF compulsion" on track owners
to finance the gift and about
$1,000 is still owed.
