Recreation Agency
Asks Bigger Budget
In Prince Georges

The Prince Georges Recreation
Department asked the County
Commissioners yesterday for STA
1888 for the 1953-54 fiscal year.
That's more than double what
the department had to work with
this current fiscal year-and
almost four times what the COM
ndissioners let them have the last
time they asked for money.
Current Years Outlay.
The current fiscal years OUT
lay is $32,898. The county put up
$20. 900 of it. The .Maryland- Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission Clipped in $12,600 to
help the Prince Georges reecre-
alton program along.
Next fiscal year. the planning
commission doesn't intend to pay
anything. The whole sum re-
quested yesterday would be a
county bill.
It would pay for more recre-
alton facilities and employees than
the county has now, and would be
countrywide, instead of being re-
stricted-as it largely is now-to
the metropolitan area.
The items that account for this
requests bigness, compared to the
current operating fund. include:
Three part-time area. super
visors, whose pay would total
$4,000. The current fund has no
area supervisors.
/ Twenty-four more playground
directors and leaders. The pay
rolls for these classifications
would rise $9.425 over what they
are now.

rectors for the winter. at 81, 800
more than the $4.I00 the present
Is such Jobs cost.
An automobile for the depart
ment's use. pay raises and an

BY fhe Asseeiaisd Press

ANNAPOLIS. Dec, i3.-Robins
hungry for red berries have cur
tailed the holly-wreatll business
on Maryland's Eastern Shore. the
Department Of Forests and Parks
said yesterday.
They have stripped the trees
in some areas.
Fewer wreaths than usual were
offered for the opening OF the
country's only holly auction at
Fruitland last Wednesday, the de-
partment said.
Farmers who cut holly on their
land to make wreaths for the
city markets complained it was
hard to find red berries to deco
rate them.
The foresters explained the
shortage Of berries has been
caused both by summer drought
which hurt the crop and warm
weather which has made migra-
tory fiocks Of robins linger longer
on the shore.

special hearing soon on a pro-
Iposal to incorporate all the urban

city.
t The Maryland City" plan re-
|ceived little opposition when pre-
sented by the Prince Georges

hearing in the county service
building, Hyattsville.
Most of the delegates seemed
Ito feel the plan is a good idea
$50 did most Of the 125 persons

After the plan was explained
by Harry Boswell, jr., Delegate
Albert r. Hassall, chairman o1
the county's delegation, said hi

ing.
Mr.. Boswell said the chamber
lis advancing the plan because II
feels "some such action will have
to be taken soon to provide bet.
ter services at less cost"
| A single Maryland city. he said
would solve great many of thu
growing pains of the urban area.
Residents of the urban ares
bordering the District would yotl
1on whether they wanted to in.
corporate under the plan. They
would select q board to draw ur
"a charter Of Incorporation, which
would be submitted to a vote two

I Mr.. Boswell suggested that Il
the single-city idea wasn't &C.
lceptable, the urban area possibly
could be incorporated in two cities
One in the south and one In the
north.
At Mr.. Hassall's suggestion

-Four New Judgeships
For Circuit Courts in
Maryland Proposed

A special commission studying
the reorganization of the Mary
land judiciary will recommend to
Gov. McKeldin the creation of
four new judgeships, two of them
for the Washington area.
Delegate j. Douglas Bradshaw,
of Montgomery County and a
member of the commission. said
new Circuit Court judgeships are
proposed both for the Sixth
montgomery and Frederick
Countless and the Seventh
prince Georges. Calvert, Charles
and st. Mary's Counties, Judicial
Districts.
New judgeships also will be pro-
posed for Baltimore City and the
Third Judicial District Baltimore
County and Hartford Counties) :.
Mr.. Bradshaw said.
Mr. Bradshaw said the commits
sion which is studying the entire
State judiciary was unanimous in
its recommendations.
Once the formal recommendation
goes to the Governor. it is ex-
pected to be forwarded to the
legislative Council for considera-
ton in the forthcoming General
Assembly.
Montgomery County failed last
February to get a new judgeship
for the 9Th district. At that time
the delegation thought a constitu-
tional amendment was necessary.
Since then. however. former At
torney General Hall Hammond
wrote a lengthy opinion in which
he said no constitutional amend
ment is required. He said only
action of the Legislature is neces-
sary.
The Montgomery delegation is
behind the judgeships for the
nearby areas. The Montgomery
post also has widespread support
from county civic groups.

Court Upholds Right
OF School Board in
Arlington Land Suif

The Arlington Circuit Court
yesterday upheld the right Of
the County School Board to ac-
quire land by condemnation on
proceedings, even though a suit
to oust three board members is
pending.
The ruling was handed down
by Judge Walter T. Mccarthy in
rejecting a motion by Attorney
John Locke Green for dismissal
Of a condemnation suit in which
the board is seeking to acquire
about 3A acres of land. Mr..
Green represented William p.
Ames and B. NJ. Smith, owners
Of the property at Thirteenth
and South Quincy street, which
the board wants to use as play
ground area for the nearby Ran
dolph School.
Mr.. Green is attorney in a suit
challenging the rights of Bar
nard JOY, Warren Cox and E. r..
Drahein to hold Office on the
grounds they are Federal en-
ployes. This suit is expected to
be argued in the Circuit Court on
January Is.
The right of the board to pro-
ceed in the condemnation case
was challenged by Mr.. Green,
who argued that the board is
illegally constituted, since three
of its members are not eligible
for Office. therefore the remain
ing two members of the board
do not constitute a quorum to
carry on business.
James H. Simmonds, and Miss
Jane Deeley, attorneys for the
school board, argued that, even
though the board members might
eventually be ousted, they are
now acting with full legal au-
thority. He said the acts they
now perform will have legal force.
even though they are later re-
moved from Office.
A three-member condemnation
commission will be appointed by
the court to set a price on the
property at a later date.
