Candidate Criticizes
VIRGINIA Tax Methods

Fairfax County will lose at
least $3.50. 900 in Virginia revenue
next year because the State bases
its ALLEGATIONS on out-dated pop
ulation figures, a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for
the House Of Delegates said to-
day
Omer L. HirSt, Annandale real
estate man, said that State for
mulaS fail to set aside a fair
share Of revenues for rapidly
growing areas, such as Fairfax.
"The State collects taxes from
the people who live here now, +"
MIR. Hirst said, ''but when it
comes time to return their money
for local improvements, the
State conveniently pretends that
our population is no larger than
it was in 1880"
He proposed that the State
authorize use of current popuia-
ton figures for any locality that
is willing to pay the Census Bu-
reau for a special count of its
population.
Among the reduced revenues
to be received before the 1860
census, unless the formulas are
changed, are highway and school
funds and liquer profits, the
candidate said.

Council Backs Plan
To Keep Road Near
Gaithersburg Open

The Montgomery County
Council yesterday gave tentative
approval to a plan to keep open
a rural road near Gaithersburg
at a cost to the county of at
least 100000.
The road. just north of the
Agriculture Center, links the
present Route 240 and Mary
land Route 124. The State Roads
Commission had proposed that
the road, known as Browns Sta
ton road, be closed in connec-
ton with construction of the
new National Pike.
Under a splan backed by
County Public Works Director
Mason Butcher, Browns Station
road would be relocated in part
and would be built under the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
tracks.
Mr.. Butcher said the under
pass and the relocation would
cost between 900 and $780,
900. He indicated, however, he
believed Federal matching funds
would be available for the
project.
If the road is kept open, Mr..
Butcher said, the SRC probably
will construct an interchange
there. instead of at route 1874,
farther south.
Mr.. Butcher pointed out the
Brown station road then would
serve as a circumferential route
around Gaithersburg and would
bring traffic into the town from
the north end, instead of at the
already dangerous railroad over
pass on Route 240. The latter
would have received the traffic
under the SRC proposed inter-
change farther south.
The council yesterday ap-
proved a plan to simplify the
Upper Montgomery County SUBJ
division regulation procedures
for approving the creation of
single lots from large tracts in
the rural areas.
Also approved was a site on
Route 240 in Rockville, near the
Richard Montgomery High
School for construction of a new
fire house by the Rockville Vol
unteer Fire Department.

Fenwick Responds,

Latest QUESTIONABLE
BY a stoff Correspondent Of The star

RICHMOND, June 3.-For the
second time in a week. State
Senator Charles R. Fenwick has
answered a Statewide organ
ization's QUESTIONABLE on public
issues, while his Democratic
opponent in the gubernatorial
primary, Thomas B. Stanley. has
failed to respond.
The State Legislative Commit
tee of the National Council Of
Jewish Women today released
Mr.. Fenwick's replies to five
questions, which had been sent
to both candidates.
Two Copies Sent.
Mrs. Jacob Cohn of Richmond,
committee chairman, said:
"The committee made every
effort to reach Mr.. Stanley. We
sent him two copies Of the ques-
tionnaire, thinking he might
have missed the first one. But
he made no reply"
Last Friday. the Virginia
League of Women Voters re-
leased Mr.. Fenwick's answers to
another list Of questions, with
the explanation that Mr.. STAN
ley had not responded.
The Jewish women asked the
candidates: ''Do. you favor the
strengthening of the absent
voters law to prevent fraudulent
voting?"
"If elected" Mr.. Fenwick re-
"I will ask the Legisla-
ture to pass such a resolution
for submission to the people in
the simplest form possible"
Against Repeal.
do you favor the repeal Of
the absent voters law?"
Mr.. Fenwick answered: "I do
not favor repeal of the absent
voters law if it can be adequately
strengthened to prevent fraud" "
The candidates were asked if
they would recommend increased
appropriations for separate de-
tention facilities for juveniles
now being kept in jails, contrary
to the law.

said, 1.-THE State of Virginia is
encouraging the localities to es-
tablish separate detention IA
cilities for juveniles by offering
to pay all of the operating ex-
penses of such facilities and IS
per cent of the cost of person.
mel.
Would Awaken Citizens.
Despite this generous offer,
little has been done on the part
of the localities to accept this
aid. It appears that the most
important need today is an
awakening on the part of the
citizens of localities to the ne
cessity of establishing these sep
arate detention facilities.
"I shall do all within my
power to call attention to the
various governing bodies of our
cities and towns of the provisions
for State aid and to assist in
the creation of public sentiment
for local action"
Other questions by the Jew
iSh women were similar to those
asked by the women voters.

On Study Of Lots

Engineer Commissioner, has a
feeling there are plenty of park
ing places in downtown WASH
ington-if the motoriSt is willing
to pay.
Speaking before the District
Advisory Board of the American
Automobile Association yester-
day. Gen. Prentiss reported on
results of a parking survey con-
Quoted by operators of private
lots and garages in the downtown
business area.
"a lot of people, argue that
there is no place to park down.
town." he declared. II think
what they mean is there is no
place to park downtown free"
He said the survey was con-
Quoted for six days, beginning on
April 20, by 78 parking lot and
garage operators. They checked
the number of vacancies in their
establishments every hour from
9 am. to 6 pm.
Adequate Space Reported.
"They found adequate parking
space" Gen. Prentiss said.
The study showed 10 per
cent vacancy during the peak
hours, between II am. and 2
pm, and 80 per cent vacancy
during the entire day, he said.
The area studied was bounded
by Twenty-third street NV. on
the west, Massachusetts, avenue
NV. on the north, Second street
NV. on the east and Constitu-
ton avenue NV. on the south.
The area was broken down into
areas A, B, c and D for pur-
poses of the study.
Gen. Prentiss said the smaller
areas within the downtown shop
ping district showed these re-
suits:
Area A, Is per cent peak va
cancy and "a per cent daily va
cancy; area B, 81 per cent peak
vacancy and 80 per cent daily
vacancy: area c, 18 per cent peak
vacancy and 80 per cent daily
vacancy; area D, % per cent
peak vacancy and IS per cent
daily vacancy.
Data to Be Studied.
Gen. Prentiss said all this will
be studied by the Commissioners
and the District Motor Vehicle
Parking Agency at a meeting to
be. held soon.
He said he had not made up
his mind on where to go from
here on the parking problem.
Gen. Prentiss reported there
were under constructiOEig or COM
pleted within the last so days an
additional nine parking estab.
lishments with 2.505 spaces. In
the planning stage are units that
will add another 5000 spaces, he
added.
He said the survey made by the
parking lot and garage people
will have to be studied carefully.
He said that, if the District goes
into financing public parking lots,
as has been advocated, the pri-
vate interests may drop their
plans to add additional places.
Feels Meters Deficient.
Gen. Prentiss said he, feels the
parking meters on the streets are
not accomplishing their purpose
because too MANY people are
parking at them all day.
He recalled that he has asked
Traffic Director George E.
Keneipp to prepare plans for a
force of about 10 men to do
nothing but check parking
meters.
Gen. Prentiss also suggested
that stores should acquaint peo-
pie with parking facilities by
including maps Of convenient
lots in their bills. He also sug-
gested the merchants make
Saturday a big shopping day in
Washington, since on that day
downtown traffic is not as heav
as it is during the week.
Gen. Prentiss also was pre-
sented with a special citation
from the AAA for the Districts

protection.
