One Of those storms. said Vice
President David Bonner, of the

The corporation did much Of
the work on the substructure of
the huge bridge.
Mr.. Bonner told the annual
convention Of the Maryland AS
|sociation Of Engineers yesterday
that much Of the substructure
work was done by the same meth
DDS which proved successful In
the construction of the San Fran
cisco Oakland and the Potomac
River bridges.
The stability and soundness OF
the 4.25-mile bridge is now under
Iofhcial scrutiny. Gov. McKeldin
has asked for a report from. the
State Roads Commission on all
phases of construction and de-
sign Of the span.

The plight of Mississippi came

Delegates, that no f1rst-class Ital-

DR.. Maxton said the cost of pro-

|$7,763, Budget
For Prince Georges
Schools Weighed

Operation Of Prince Georges
mushrooming public school system
will cost $7.763, ,166 in the next
fiscal year, if the county Board
of Education budget is approved.
The figure, now before the
county commissioners. is 81, 1885, TAI
higher than the $6.596, ,425 allotted
this year to maintain 88 schools
stated by 1,245 teachers and
crowded with $4,000 pupils.
Enrollments next September are
expected to jump to $500, and
County School Supt. William S.
Schmidt said the budget provides
for $50 additional instructors and
Ia mandatory 500 yearly salary
increase for those now in county
service. 4
81 Million More Salaries.
Sharpest requested advance is
the $1,O15,500 increase in teach
ers' salaries, which would total
$5,064,425 as against $4,048,925
this year.
Other major rises would include
I$219,D for operation and main-
Itene physical equipment,
SIS D % IL capital outlays for
land, repairs and improvements
and $22.128 for auxiliary agencies.
Transportation costs s1next year
are estimated at $685. .041, a total

Half From County.
County taxpayers win pay about
half of the total budget. OF the
current $6,596.425 appropriation,
$3,354,751 came from county levies
and $3.241,674 from the State and
other sources.
Mr.. Schmidt said an accurate
estimate of the effect Of higher
costs in his department on the
tax rate cannot be made at this
time, because the county's assess
able base has not been determined
and probably will not be calcu-
lated for several weeks.
