Arlington Democrats
Delay Nomination Of
Candidates for Board

Prospects Of q bipartisan slate
of candidates for the Arlington
County Board gained momentum
today.
The Arlington Democratic Exec
utive Committee last night de-
ferred action on nominating three
Democrats for the seats. Leonard
o. Hilder, committee chairman,
said the delay is contingent on
similar action being taken by the
County's Republican Executive
Committee Monday night.
N0n-Partisans Nominated.
The bipartisan candidates-if
the g. O. p. and Democrats get
together-would oppose q slate OF
bipartisan ofiice-seekers nomi-
mated at a town meeting last
night.
MIR. Hilder denied that any
IDEAL" or coalition ticket is
planned by the two major parties
to capture the board seats.
The committee decided it would
not nominate candidates at the
request of Representatives of a
large group of civic, business and
professional leaders in the coun-
ty," Mr.. Hilder said.
These leaders hope to induce
three outstanding citizens" to
run for the board seats, according
to Mr.. Hilder. He said this group
is headed by Basil M. De LASH
mutt, a Democrat and former
County Board chairman.
If the Republican committee
decides to nominate partisan can
didates for the three board seats
next Monday. Mr.. Hilder said he
would call a special meeting Of
his committee to do the same.
Calls News Stories False.
The business, civic and profess
sional leaders under Mr.. De Lash
mutt have already secured COM
mitments from candidates to run
without party labels, Mr.. Hilder
declared. Campaign expenses for
these candidates would be borne
by Mr.. De Lashmutt's group.
He said that recent news stories
about a fusion ticket or deals
were wholly erroneous.
"TheSe stories undoubtedly re-
ceived their foundation from the
fact that there have been many
conferences between party leaders
and an interchange of views be-
tween the major parties due to the
rather unusual nature of the sit
uation confronting u.s." Mr.. Hilder
said.

Opposition to Building Plans
Puzzles Good Shepherd Nuns

There's no smoke at all. The
sheets are subjected to the little
press, and emerge as checker
sized Communion tablets or-from
"a slightly larger press-as the
larger waters priests use in
the transubStantiation ritual.
Churches Get Bread.
The altar bread from the House
of the Good Shepherd goes tc
most Catholic churches in this i'm.
mediate area.
Except for the waters and the
laundry, the home is supported by
tuition fees and sources mentioned
above. The District sends some OF
its girls there-those requiring
special supervision-and the rest
of the revenue comes from charity
donations.
The District has already noti-
fed the zoning readjusters that
the home meets "a very real need
in the past years in terms OF
giving stricter custody to older
teen-age girls than is available
under the present facilities of the
Industrial Home School. :"
Girls who have completed the
eighth grade take a two-year com.
mercial course. A number of thu
graduates hold responsible jobs ir
the District now, including one
who's Supreme Court secretary

for the 18 nuns.
Oppose New Height.
When-and if-the new build.
ing goes up. it'll replace the pres.
lent buildings.
Opponents have complained that
the proposed building will exceed
Burleith's restrictions on a build
ing's height.
This objection bewilders the
Good Shepherd sisters as much as
any other plant. The main build
ing they use now is in excess OF
the height limit. The new one
will be built on a terrace closer
to street level and will be closer tc
sea level than the one they have
now. The Burleith protest does
not stress the height angle.
The whole thing rests with the
Commissioners, who readjust zon-
ing. Their decision, in turn, rests
upon the arguments of each side
The sisters Of the Good Shepherd
are convinced that-once Their
neighbors know what the home
does and how it helps unfortunates
the home will get a go-ahead on
its mission of being q Coco
Shepherd.

Prince Georges
Welfare Report
Due Shortly
For-Reochine Changes
To Be Recommended
In Agency Study


,Far-reaching changes in public
welfare administration viii be rec
commended to the Prince Georges
Commissioners within the next
few days.
A special committee named 10
study physical needs and the COM
plex problems Of the, welfare
agency is about ready 10 submit its
findings. 1t was learned today.
Neither Committee Chairman
Hervey q. Machen nor his asso-
ciates in the four-month probe
would comment on the report. The
others are Mrs. Hazel Dyson, Mrs.
Joseph s. Yuill, Mrs. Richard
zantzinger and Republican Dele-
gate Harry e. Taylor. jr.
Program Indicated.
But sources close to the group
predicted the suggestions will in-
lclude:
A welfare program embodying
the basic principle Of minimum
dependence on Federal and State
aid.
New legislation designed to give
county welfare authorities more
autonomy and to define more
clearly divisions Of responsibility
between State and county welfare
boards.
A new building. partly financed
by Federal grant, to provide suit.
able quarters for a county stan.
now housed in scattered and i'll
adapted rooms in the County
Service Building in Hyattsville.
Higher salaries for most ern-
Iployes to end the excessive per-
sonnel turnover that has long pre-.
vailed because Of better pay scales
in other welfare agencies in the
Washington area.
Departure From Practice.
The first expected recommends.
tion would. if approved. eventually
mean a radical departure from
present practice. The county's
current budget carries q $4,000
appropriation for welfare. but the
county expects to receive $270, 900
from outside sources.
Nevertheless. the county Repub.
lican administration has ex-
pressed a desire to have q stronger
voice In welfare matters and has
indicated it will strive for Q
greater degree Of independence.
In line with this thought, leg.
Iislation may be recommended,
which will give the county board
land its director authority now
vested in the State board and its
of1icials. The sometime vague
boundaries have long been q
source Of irritation and pro.
tracted disputes.
Virtually certain of recommen-
'ldation is new building for tho
County Welfare Board. The coun-
Ity commissioners and members
|of the special committee recently
visited Anne Arundel County
welfare accommodations in An.
Inapolis.
County Heads Comment.

with this comment:
IF Anne Arundel can have
such facilities. so. too, can Prince
Georges. a larger and faster grow.
ing county," The Federal Gov.
ernment. it was said. would pay
labout 40 per cent Of the cost.
One Of the more serious prob
lens that has vexed Prince
Georges welfare authorities IL

|paratively low salaries.

ience are willing to accept vel.

Arlington Approval
OF 7 Referendums
A study commission has recon-
|mended that Arlington voters ap-
prove two Of the changes to be
proposed by referendum on No
vember 4.
The Arlington Citizens Study
Commission on Local Government
in a report to the county board
has recommended that voters
answer eyes" to these questions
Shall the county manager be
appointed for an indefinite term
subject to removal at any time by
the County Board?
Shall the heads of the county
departments be appointed by the
county manager?
Study on City Incomplete.
The commission has not COM
|pleted its study Of the question on
Arlington's incorporation as a city
A report on this phase is expected
within the next two weeks.
The incorporation question Il
accompanied by two others: Shall
the members Of the city school,
board be elected by the city coun.
ell or elected by the qualified
voters Of the city? Shall the city
council consist of i've or seven
members?
The Arlington Citizens Commit.
tee for School Improvement has
Iindorsed unanimously election OF
the city school board by the voters
as at present.
Another question to be decided
November 4 is whether to re-
establish a Department of Real
Estate Assessment. The depart
ment was established last year
but was abolished after a suit
brought by John Locke Green
The State Supreme Court held
that the State law used by the
county in setting up the depart
Iment was special legislation. and
therefore unconstitutional. The
1852 General Assembly passed a
new law to permit the referendum
Years Tenure at Present.
Under the present system, the
manager is appointed January
to serve for one year. II he is to
be fired. he must be notified by
November /.
The date Of notification invari-
ably falls just before election Of
lat least one County Board men,
ber. Some civic leaders contend
that no board would risk election
day reaction to dismissing q
manager.
In its report, the commission
said: "The professional manager
prefers the freedom Of an in
definite term because a clash be-
tween the governing body and
the manager permits him the
freedom of resignation rather than
continuing unpleasant relations
until the termination Of the con-
tract date. It is most interesting
to note that the longest terms Of
managers have occurred in juris-
dictions where the manager 4
serving an indefinite term"
Department heads are now ap-
pointed by the County Board al
la result Of court decision holding
that the previous procedure, ap-
|pointment by the manager, was
illegal. The change could be made
after November, If the vote b
favorable, under authority Of this
years General Assembly.
However. II the vote on I'M
corporation is favorable. the ap-
lpointment of the manager win
continue on q year-to-year basis.
A seventh referendum question
on November 4 will be a State
question on q constitutional
amendment asking authorization
to appropriate funds for schools
established by two or more states,

BY the A..oeiat.d Pres.

BALTIMORE, Sept. 26.-Closer
cooperation between the State
and its counties in carrying out a
highway program with response
bility delegated to a single admin
istrator was urged today in a ST.
page report by the Commission on
State Administrative Organiza-
ton.
"It is time to reject the idea
that the State, counties and cities
can follow completely independent
courses, and to accept the idea
that the State and local units
should proceed as partners in the
highway undertaking." the report
said
Makes 8 Recommendations.
The commission, better known
as the Sobeloff Commission for its
chairman. Simon E. Sobeloff
made nine recommendations after
interviews with State, county and
municipal officials in each of
Maryland'S % counties. The re-
port recommends:
/. The existing dual method OF
managing county roads operations
under which the State performs
county road work in some counties
while in others the counties eio
their own road work. should be
continued for the present.
2. The State Roads Commits
ISlon sould consolidate all respon-
tsibility for State-locaI highway
activities into a single staff unit,
the head of which should report
directly to the top administrative
official of the commission.
3. The body responsible for roads
in each of the counties and cities
should delegate adequate powers
of negotiation to the head Of the
road or street unit. in order that
he may deal effectively with State
and local officials.
