Insurance Firms baIk
AT Youth Driver Plan
BY the Asseeiated Press

RICHMOND, Oct. g. Virginia
insurance companies remained
skeptical today toward a proposed
plan to allow special rate con-
sideration for persons under Is
who have taken a drivers train
ing course.
The plan was put forward yes
terday by the Automobile Club Of
Virginia in a hearing before the
State Corporation Commission on
requested new automobile insur-
ance rates.
The insurance firms have asked
for higher rates for drivers under
IS. contending they are much
more prone to have accidents than
are more experienced motorists.
The automobile club produced
figures purporting to show that
accidents among persons under IS
can be cut in half through driver
education programs in school.
But James Cahill, secretary of
the National Bureau of Casualty
Underwriters. refused to accept
the argument. He said underwrit-
ers cant Jump to conclusions
when they compute insurance
rates.
For drivers as a whole, the in
surance companies are asking a
104 per cent increase in bodily
injury rates on passenger cars, SIS
per cent increase on commercial
vehicle rates. and a 40 per cent
raise in property damage rates for
both classes of vehicles.

Move 10 Upset Ban
|0n Row Houses in
Annexed Area Fails

A ban against row houses in the
new annexation territory of Alex
andria remained in effect today,
after the city Council failed to
muster enough votes to override
the planning commission on three
proposed row-house rezonings.
Five members of Council voted
for the row-house rezoning petit
tions, but the city charter re-
|quires a vote Of six councilmen to
upset the planning commissions
Recommendation.
The five councilmen who voted
for the rezonings were James M.
Duncan. jr.: David Haddock, John
Ewald, Mayor Marshall Beverley
and Leroy S. Bendheim. Council
men Franklin P. Backus and
Frank Mann voted no.
Policy Change Urged.
The planning commission rec
commended against all three re-
zoningS because it did not feel
the city should permit row-house
development in the annexed area
at the present time. The plan
ming commission has maintained
its opposition to row-house devel-
opment since a master coming
plan was adopted for the an
nexed area.
Councilman Bendheim said he
thought it was time the city
changed that policy. He said
there was a serious need for lower
cost homes in the city. He was
supported by Councilman Had
dock, who said the development
of lower cost housing would in
vite more industry to the city.
D. C. Book, executive director
of the Chamber of Commerce,
spoke in behalf of the rezonings.
He said the chamber wanted to
interest large industries in build
ing in Alexandria, and one of the
first considerations would be
availability of low-cost housing.
Residents Protest.
Residents from the Seminary
Hill and Strawberry Hill areas
protested the proposed row-house
developments. They said it would
overcrowd the schools, and would
concentrate too many people in
a small area.
The three parcels involved in
the rezonings are located along
Duke street in the territory Alex
andria recently annexed from
Fairfax County. One is the 1877
acre Cockrell tract on the south
side of Duke street. The other
two tracts are side by side on the
south side of Duke street, between
Quaker lane and Edsall road. They
contain a total of about IS acres.
All are now zoned for duplex
houses

council, has scored the present
practice as a violation of good
government"
Mr.. Fentress and Councilman
Grover Walker last May warned.
however, the ceiling had been a big
argument for the charter. Mr..
Walker had opposed both resolu-
tons in the May legislative
session.
School groups supporting the re-
moval of the ceiling have a
secondary motive for their action.
Schools Supt. Edwin w. Broome,
will retire at the end of the pres
ent school year and officials fear
they will be unable to get a quail
fed replacement for him at the
$11,500 salary he now receives.
In the May legislative session
the County Civic Federation gave
full support to the move to raise
the maximum pay of councilman
The federation went farther and
urged it be made effective i'm
mediately.
In 1850 and 1851, the council
held ISL and 1872 meetings, re-
spectively. The average length of
the meetings was approximately
five hours
Included Many Sessions.
These meetings included regular
weekly sessions, zoning hearings
front foot assessment benefit
hearings, hearings on ordinances
and budgets, and occasional in
vestigative visits to county in
stallations.
The most any councilman would
have received in 1851 would have
been $2.280 under provisions Of
the proposed charter change. The
lowest would have been $1,860
These figures were established by
a study made by the county man
ayers office.
Councilmen point out they are
obliged to attend a number Of
hearings each year without com.
pensation. Most of them mus
take time out from their regular
occupations for the sessions.
There is doubt, however, thai
any councilmen would receive the
$4,000 maximum under present
conditions. Their absences from
meetings include vacation time
| illnesses and business obligations.

By Cherries l. Hoffman

Montgomery County residents
will vote on two local referendums
both relating to salaries of coun-
ty officials-when they 60 to the
polls November 4.
Both salary questions have been
supported by a number of county
organizations.
The first would remove the $12,-
900 limitation set by the charter
on the salary Of the county man
,ager. Under the proposed law,
the county council would have the
authority to set the managers
salary. @.'. = = 20, -. .. -
The second referendum would
raise the maximum pay OF coun-
Gil members from $1,000 to $4,000
a year. e pay increase, how
ever. woulU not change the pres
ent $40 a meeting fee which coun-
cilmen receive.
Would Be Effective in IS.
Passage of the second referen-
dunn would have no effect on SAL
aries of present councilmen. 1t
would not become effective until
January /, 1855 when a new coun-
ell takes Office.
Removal of the limitation on
the county managers salary has
been approved by the County
Council of Parent Teacher Asso-
Citations. the American Association
of University Women, the League
of Women Voters and the Allied
Civic Group, Inc, of Silver Spring
A study by, the Allied Civic
Group revealed that the average
pay Of county managers in COM
parable communities was about
$4,000 a year.
In Alexandria, Falls Church and
Fairfax and Arlington Counties,
the local governing bodies have
the authority to set salaries OF
their managers.
Council Holds It Is Right.
Fairfax County recently hired
its county executive, Carlton c.
Massey at an $4,000 a year sal
airy. Arlington and Alexandria
managers receive $4,000 and
$12.500 year respectively.
The council holds it should have
the right to set the managers sal.

Bids Awarded on ;
Fairfax School Jobs
Adding IS CIassroms

Bids for construction of three
new school projects were award
ed yesterday by the Fairfax
County School Board.
The awards were made as fol-
lows:
A new four-classroom school at
Clifton, to Whitener and Skillman
of Arlington for $168,373.
A seven-classroom addition at
Fairfax High School. to Certified
Builders Of Washington, for
$123,358. S
A new seven classroom Fairfax
Negro Elementary School, to Co.
lumbus Construction Co. Of Wash
ington, for $223,674.
All three projects are to be paid
for out of the current sos mil
lion school construction bond is
sue. The Clifton school project
exceeded the amount set up in
the bond issue by about $4,000
and the Fairfax High School
project was about the same
amount under the figure antici-
pated. The Fairfax Negro school
exceeded the bond issue program
by about $4,000.
/ Space Needs Being Figured.
In preparing for a new bond
issue. the board unanimously de-
Icided not to plan separate audi
forums in elementary schools. 1t
was voted to build cafeterias that
could double as auditorium space
when needed. School Board off,
cials at present are calculating
the exact amount Of classrooms
needed in preparation for a new
school construction bond issue
proposal.
Installation of a second fire
escape at the Floris Elementary
School was authorized after a low
bid of $2,729 was received from
the Walker Iron Works. The
School Board instructed Roy
Dunn, supervisor of construction,
to negotiate with the low bidder
for some revisions in the proposed
fire escape and it is anticipated
that the cost will exceed the bid
received yesterday. The new fire
escape will serve the third floor
of the old building, which the
School Board plans to abandon as
soon as possible.
Site Negotiations Authorized.
School Board Chairman Fred
w. Robinson and Schools Supt.
w. F. Woodson were authorized
to negotiate for new Floris
School site. after a group of citi-
zens in the area recommended
several possible sites. The site
favored by the School Board is
the Rogers property opposite the
present Floris School location.
The board voted to pay $31.500
for an 8.79-acre school site in
Pimmit Hills. The price was set
by a condemnation commission
after the School Board refused
to pay the price sought by the
owners.
Employment of the first full
time dental hygienist for the
schools was authorized. The po-
sition was recommended by DR..
Harold Kennedy, county health
officer. The State and county
will share in paying for the dental
lhygienist's salary.
Robert B. Walker was appointed
to a full-time position as director
lof information and surveys. Mr..
Walker has been teaching part
time and doing research work in
the School Board Office the rest
of the time. His present salary
is to continue.

Mr.. McNayr noted that $l.56 of
the present $2.10 tax rate goes for
county schools and he sees no
prospect of cutting back the school
budget at this time.
