BY The AssoeiotedPress

SALISBURY, Md, Feb. a.
State Senator e. Dale Adkins, jr.,
Republican, of Wicomico today
called a bill to enlarge the powers
of the State Water pollution
Board "dictatorial and conf1sca-
tory"
Senator Adkins said he would
oppose the bill. which has been
recommended by the Legislative
Council for passage at this
months session of the General
Assembly.
Would Add Authority.
The bill would give the Water
Pollution Board authority over
sewage, and power to pass upon
the adequacy Of sewage disposal
systems and plants operated by
cities as well as industries.
Present laws divide the author
ity between the State Health De-
partment and the Pollution Board.
The Health Department is con-
cerned mostly with sewage and is
interested mainly in whether the
water Is safe for drinking. It has
jurisdiction over city sewage dis
posal plants.
Industrial Waste.
The pollution Board now has
jurisdiction over industrial waste,
and is concerned with pollution
other than that which is danger
GUS to health.
The city of Salisbury. in Sena-
tor Adkins constituency. is now
involved in q disagreement be-
tween the Health Department and
the Water Pollution Board over
the adequacy Of the city's pro-
posed $4,000 sewage disposal
plant.
The Health Department has
approved the plans. The Pollu-
tion Board says the proposed sys-
TEN is inadequate because IT can
not cope with the industrial waste
from several. plants in the city
limits,

Mr.. Raine believes q law that

penalty Of Is cents for the first
curse and SO cents for each curse
thereafter.
The law was among a number
of obsolete and absurd" sections

Dispersal Sites
Nearer District
Revision Of Plons
Would Cut Acreage
For New Buildings
By Froneis P. Douglas

0y VFOWSDS - 0O0StAS
Revision Of dispersal plans for
Federal Office buildings in
outlying areas may result in rec
concentrations Of sites nearer
Washingtno than at first con-
templated.
Linked with this, it was learned
yesterday. is the probability that
the acreage for the sites would be
scaled down. Under original plans
between 200 and 800 acres was set
as the desirable area for the site
OF dispersed building. If a loca-
ton closer to Washington Is de.
cided on this may be reduced to
about SO acres.
One of the sites which may be
considered, it was learned, is the
,rea at Suitland, Md. where the
'ensus Bureau is. Another is the
ormer Letter Estate at Langley.
Ia, which was purchased some
lime ago by the Public Roads Bu-
eau.
Proposals Outlined.
& Under present proposals, as dis
closed by President Truman. the
buildings planned for dispersal as
a protection measure in case OF
atomic bomb attack would be
placed on land now Government
owned. This would reduce the
overall cost of the development
and would meet protest of neigh
boring counties against more OF
their land being taken from the
tax rolls.
The plan Of using only Govern
ment- t-owned land narrows the
choice of sites. It may also make
necessary placing the buildings
closer to the Capital than the 20
mile distance originally stressed 40
necessary for safety.
Two Of the Government-owned
sites inspected by members OF
Congress are the Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station at Beltsville, Md.
and Fort Belvoir, Va. There Is
extensive acreage at both places.
The former is served by the WASH
ington- Baltimore highway, the lat
ter by the Shirley highway. Both
are about IL miles from downtown
Washington.
Government Tracts Listed.
The possibility of using tract
at the edge Of the Fort Meade
reservation also has been men
toned.
The Government-owned area in
Suitland is 435 acres but only
about q quarter Of that Is now
used. There are seven buildings
for the Census Bureau and a
building used by the Navy Hydro
'fgraphic once. The site is about
8 air miles from downtown WASH
,Iington. sSS.
1 On part Of the tract is d hous-
ling development of temporary
tstructures put up by the National
Capital Housing Authority. About
I16 residences and commercial
structures on the site when the
IGovernment acquired it are rented
to individuals. Part Of the tract
lis covered with scrub pine.
The area at Langley is northwest
of the Chain Bridge on the Vir-
ginia side and consists Of $50
acres. It extends from the Po-
tomac River to State Route 604
and is about Z miles from the
zero milestone.
The Public Roads Bureau has
put up a shops building and a
heating plant. It plans eventu-
ally to establish there its physical
research operations now adjacent
| to the National Airport, to build
ltest tracks stretches Of highway
for testing) and possibly an office
structure to which its staff would
move from Washington.

The letter written by an IL
year-old girl which caused Lin
coin to grow q beard is the priced
possession Of Representative Dom
dero, Republican. Of Michigan.
He produced it In his Office as
he told the story of how it came
into his possession and how he
travelled more than halfway
across the country to meet the
writer--then a woman Of 80.
The ink was brown with age;
the script of the old copy-book
meticulouSness. The Library of
Congress had covered 1t with q
transparent preservative. Mr.. Dom
dero also produced o pnoto-copy
Of Lincoln'S reply. It appeared to
have been written with q scratchy
pen that cramped the hand and
it was marred by small blots.
The letters read:
Westfield. Chautauqua Co., N. Y.
October IS, 1860
Hon. A. B. Lincoln.
Dear Sir:
My father has Just (come)
home from the fair and brought
home your picture and MIR. !
Hamlin's. ! am a little girl. IL
years old, but want you, should
be President of the United States
very much. SO I hope you won't
think me very bold ito write to
such a great man as you are.
Have you any little girls about
as large as I am, II so give them
my love and tell her to write
me If you cannot answer this
letter. I have got four brothers
and part, of them viii vote for
you any way and If you win let
your whiskers grow I will try to
get the rest Of them to vote for
you. You would look o great
deal better for your face is so
thin. All the ladies like wlniskers
and they would tease their hus-
bands to vote for you and then
you would be President.
Grace Bedell.
Lincoln's reply:
Private,
Springfield. Ill,
Oct. 10, 1860.
Miss Grace Bedell
WeStfield, N. Y.
My dear little Miss,
Your very agreeable letter Of
the 18th is received. I regret
the necessity of saying I have
no daughters. I have three
sons, one seventeen. one nine.
and one seven years Of. age.
They, with their mother. con-
stitute my whole family. AS to
the WhiSkerS, having never worn
any, do you not think people
would call it a piece of silly
affection if were to begin it
now?
Your very sincere well-wisher,
A. Lincoln.
Mr.. Dondero, son of an Italian
who came from Genoa
almost a century ago, has been a
Lincoln fan all his life. It was
partly in recognition Of this and
oarty because he is q hard and
lble worker in party causes that
le was made chairman of the
annual dollar chick
,n-in-the-box supper which will

Part Of Lincoln Legend.
The story that a little girl got
1im to grow a beard has been
part of the Lincoln legend since
he then newly-elected President
East for his first inaug-
lration. Ida Tarbell mentioned
it in her biography Of Lincoln.
