Commission 10 IncIose
Takoma Park Stream

The Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission will appro-
pirate $4,000 toward construction
of storm sewer inclosing Bra
shears Run from Philadelphia
avenue to a point northwest of
Niagara avenue, it was disclosed
last night by the Takoma Park
City Council.
The entire cost of the project
will be 100000.
The matter has been studied
for over two years by the COM
mission and the council. The
former recommended an open
channel. but the council felt that
a closed type would best serve the
community. The commission has
inclosed all of the upper section
of the run from Piney Branch
road to Philadelphia avenue.
The commission plans to post
pone drainage construction in the
vicinity of Barkley and Tulip
avenues. The council plans to
dedicate without cost to the COM
mission all necessary city-owned
land.
A number of amendments pro-
posed by the advisory committee
for the Maryland Legislature were
discussed. The council approved
a referendum for a sinking fund

submitted his resignation effective
January /.
He explained at a Council meet
ing last night that his moving out
of Greenbelt made it impossible
for him to continue. He still has
about half of his two-year term
to serve.
The Council ordered Town Man.
ager Charles Mcdonald to pre-
pare a new ordinance banning
pets in the development. The or
dinance is necessary, Council
members feel, because leases to
new owners lack the provision.
The Council also approved ex-
penditures of $4,000 for two-way
police radios, and $3,127 for safety
and recreation programs.

Group
Plans Longer Study Of
Reassessment Project

The Montgomery County Civic
Federation wants more time to
study the controversial reassess-
ment program now under way
despite the requests of several
member associations for prompt
action.
In a report last night, DR.. Har-
old B. Rowe of the Public Finance
and Budget Committee said his
committee is not yet ready to
report. The committee believes,
he said, that the principal ques-
ton is whether inequity between
districts is resulting from the con-
tinuous plan now in effect.
The Federation again urged the
Maryland State Roads Commis-
sion to expedite the location of
the new Route 240.
Citing the rapid housing devel-
opment in lower Montgomery
County, the resolution said fur
Gher delay would increase costs OF
right of way.
In another resolution, the Fed
Grafton urged the county delega-
ton to the Maryland Assembly to
introduce legislation limiting We
hicles to a single-axle load limit
of $4,000 pounds. The present
limit is 22,400 pounds. The Fed

the recommendation of the Amer

Maryland Tax Rate
For 1852 May Remain
Al 7 Per Cent Rate
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Nov. 18th G
Board OF Revenue Estimates, de-
termining there will be $103, 1885,
218 available for the States gen.
eral fund in the next fiscal year,
says the Maryland tax on income
earned in 1852 will remain at 2
per cent.
This rate has been in effect for
several years. Last winter, Gov.
McKeldin and the General Assem-
bly, put through a Is per cent re-
dCctiop on the tax on 1851
incomes and taxpayers were per-
mltted to claim the reduction
when they filed their annual re-
turns last April.
AS the Board of Revenue Esti-
mates sees it now, the State
doesn't have enough revenue in
sight to permit this next April.
The board also was told by ad-
visers that unless the State lets
its annuity bond run into the red
for few months early in 1855,
1t will have to increase its prop
|erty levy from GOA cents to 1923
cents Tor 1854.
The board arrived at more than
$103 million available income for
the IL months beginning next July
after estimating surplus from this
years income at $9,775.658.41 and
an expected income of 500, sos, $50
during the next fiscal year.
Budget Director James G. Rem
ME said the tax rate for 1855 may
increase to about 16 cents because
OF the recent substantial increase
in the States bonded indebted
ness.
The State debt already has
passed 500 million.
