Fire Tax
Bill Veto
Airing Set
By Council
Firemen Opposing
Granting Council
Authority to Fix
Fire Tax Rates

A request by the County Volun-
teer Firemen's Association that the
County Council veto a bill passed
at the May legislative session
providing stricter county control
over fire departments will get
public airing at $3.50 pm. July %
in Rockville.
The county charter requires the
Council to hold a public hearing
on any formal request that bill
be vetoed. The controversial fire
tax bill was vigorously opposed
by the firemen and the Montgom-
cry County Civic Federation which
also asked it's veto.
Measures passed in May become
law August Is. unless vetoed by at
least four council members.
The disputed fire bill would give
the Council authority to set the
tax rates for all county fire de-
partments. No support for the bill
was expressed at a public hearing.
In another fire department mat
ter, the Council denied a request
from a group of residents from the
Massachusetts Avenue Extended
area that the council rescind a
resolution adopted last month per-
hitting the Conduit Road Fire
Board to build new station on a
triangle at Massachusetts Avenue,
Sangamore and Walhonding Rds.
Opponents of the proposed site
Of the new firehouse for the Glen
Echo fire area complained the res
olution was premature since a law
ratifying the purchase Of the site
would not go into effect until Aug
ust Is. The council has passed a
similar resolution permitting the
Rockville Fire department to build
on the carnival grounds on the
Rockville Pike.
The council Tuesday appointed
Roger S. Peacock of 9401 Sligo
Creek Parkway, Silver Spring, as
manager of the County's two golf
courses. Mr.. Peacock held a SINH
lar position when the courses were
under the jurisdiction of the Mary
land-National Capital Park and

It's Bean Hole Supper Time
At FZOUer Hill Church

Get out your gustatorial appre-
citation, folks. The Men of the
Flower Hill Church of the Breth-
rem are sponsoring their second
annual Bean Hole Supper on FRI
day, July II, and that is news.
Just in case you are one of
those poor unfortunates who have
never partaken of a Bean Hole
Supper, Well let you in. on the
secret. They are. baked in great
cans buried in the glowing Goals
of a bean hole lined with rock.
The whole can and fire are COW
cred over and the beans left to
simmer for at least "a hours. There
is no air to scorch the beans and
they come out tasting like that
nectar stuff the gods on Olympus
are said to have gone for.
Of course, this preparation of
the bean hole and the proper COM
bination of beans and ham and
other secret flavorings must be I'M
der the close supervision of real
expert-and this is where the
Flower Hill pensioners are 50
fortunate.
Their Pastor, the Rev. Arthur L.
Warner, has 4 secure place in the
Bean Hole hall of fame because of
his past endeavors. He uses the
Maine Woods Camp method that is
believed the model for the world.

Firm
Franchise
Court Test
Is Studied
County Attorney
Macdonald Tells
Council He Will
Proceed in Case

Montgomery County will go to
court soon to determine whether
the Washington Gas Light Co. has
a franchise to operate in the
county.
County Attorney David Macdon-
aid Tuesday said he plans to pro-
coed with court litigation in the
near future as a result of an opin-
ion given last week by the State
Court of Appeals.
The appeals court overruled a
contention of the county that the
State Public Service Commission
had power and duty to deter
mine what franchises the company
had.
Several months ago the PSC ap-
proved the merger by the parent
company operating in the subur-
ban Maryland area. At that
time the commission said any fran
chises the subsidiaries had were
transferable but did not rule on
whether such franchises were in
existence.
The appeals court upheld the
PSC action but made it clear it
was not barring the county from
striving to determine whether the
company had a legal franchise.
The county was asked by the
gas light company last year to
approve the transfer of franchises
when the merger was proposed.
The council, however, sought to
charge the company fee for a
new franchise. The gas company
contends it has a perpetual fran
chise granted one of the compan-
les merged and does not need a
new franchise.

ter, according to w. A. Neacey.
Mr.. Neacey, president of the

Council Tuesday to rescind regu.
lations requiring spaying of fe
male dogs before they can be adj
opted at the shelter unless the
fec can be lowered.
Mr.. Ncacey said that since the
regulation went into effect last
December only one female dog had
been adopted. Tho rest have been
destroyed, he said.
A. Morton Thomas, Jr., director
Of inspection and licenses has been
criticized in the past for imposing
strict regulations that have made
it difficult to adopt dogs from the
shelter.
Mr.. Neacey also challenged the
legality Of an agreement made by

SIS fee. He said il was contrary
to antitrust laws.

for accepting the terms Of the
agreement which, he charged, also
provided that each animal hospital

New Center's

was the first patient admitted to
~ahe new $64 million Clinical Cen
ter in Bethesda when it opened its
doors Monday.
The Center does not reveal the
names of patients in order to pro-

ing such diseases as cancer.
Approximately a score of other
patients, some for studies of heart
conditions and others for cancer,

Patients are referred to the
center by their private physicians
and after they have completed
treatments will return to the care
of their own physician but will
continue to aid in the collection of
medical data concerning their
cases.
! The clinical center was dedicated
July 2 at ceremonies which heard
Mrs. Oveta Culp Hobby, Secre-
.tary of Health, Education and
NSelfare, declare that this "set of
laboratories wrapped around a
500-bed hospital" will be far more
than simply another Federal hos

perspiring guests at the unshaded
exercises that the center 'is new
evidence that the United States
Government continues to be re-
sponsive to the people and to the
needs of the people,"
Patients at the center will be
those whose diseases and ailments
are of especial interest to the in
stitutes surrounding. Mental patti
ents will not be received until
August because it is felt by offici-
ais that the hospital should be
functioning in first class condition
before this type of patient is adj
