1O-Cent Tax Rate Backed
By Kensinqton Fire Board

A budget of about $125, 900
requiring a 10-cent tax rate has
been approved by the Kensington
Fire Board.
The figure is a compromise
between a fire department pro-
posal of $134, 900 and a citizens
groups recommendation of $780,
600.
The Fire Board said the 10
cent tax rate would bring in
only about Sis, 900. The amount
between that sum and the ap-
proved budget of $124,115 may
be available in surplus at the
end of the current fiscal year
next June 80.
The tax rate has been Is cents
for several years. The lower
rate approved for 1884 will be

Bethesda Businessmen Hear
Residents Oppose Parking Lot

Bethesda businessmen yester-
day heard residents of the area
suggest they would rather shop in
Silver Spring or Washington.
Not that the shops are better
there, mind you.
It's simply that they want to
maintain the residential char
acter of their community lying
just off Wisconsin avenue.
The clash between businessmen
and residents came at a county
council hearing on a proposed
parking lot on Edgemoor lane,
just east of Wisconsin avenue
and East West highway.
Businessmen long have pleaded
with the council to establish
more parking lots in the area to
aid growth of the commercial
center.
Residents, at the same time,
have fought such efforts when
the lots appeared to be en-
croaching on established resi-
Dental areas.
Adjoins Apartment House.
Lauriston Taylor of the
Bethesda Chevy Chase Civic As
sembly said residents would
rather shop in Silver Spring or
Washington than see the "un-
checked growth" of the Bethesda
shopping center continue.
The proposed lot, containing
$4,000 square feet of land, lies
next to an apartment house and
across the street from COM
mercial property.
Mr.. Taylor said the proposal
was a breach of faith because
residents had been assured the
apartment house would be a
buffer between the business
center and the nearby single
family homes.
The county has an option on
the property for So a square foot.
A similar price for a 13,500-
square-foot lot in the Wood
mont triangle was unopposed
yesterday.
Proposal Held Threat.
Mr.. Taylor and other residents,
chiefly of the Edgemoor Citizens
Association, called the large park
ing lot proposal detrimental to
the character of the area and a
threat to nearby home-ownerS.
The county council yesterday
presented certificates of apprec-
iation to Marshall Davis of the
Upper Montgomery Planning
Commission and Charles D. Her
ron, former chairman of the Ap-
peals Tax Court, for their serv-
ices to the public interest.
Council President George F.
Nesbitt called in school board
officials, civic leaders and MEM
bers of the press and radio for
a clarifying announcement on
the county budget.
Mr.. Nesbitt said the budget
had been prepared without pres
sure from any group IN the

county. He encouraged the CO.
operative fact-finding group to
continue its study of the budget
and to come up with recommen-
dations for the councils con-
sideration.
Refers to Report.
Mr.. Nesbitt referred to a re-
port that the Montgomery
County Taxpayers, Inc, had
claimed responsibility for the
proposed budget and tax rate cut
recommended by County Man
ager Irving G. McNayr.
The group, organized last year
by a group of business property
owners, issued a statement yes

Board Refuses
To Rezone for
Rai|Warehouse
Denies W. & O. D.
Plea to Build on
Arlington Tract

The Arlington County Board.
swiftly voting to deny a railroads
proposal to build warehouses in
Arlington, last night yielded in
advance to hundreds of Arling-
ton residents, who were prepared
to fight the zoning request tooth
and nail.
Some 800 Arlington citizens
jammed into Arlington County's
Circuit courtroom and crowded
the corridor outside. For weeks.
many of them had vociferously
organized opposition to a recon-
ing plea of the Washington &
Old Dominion Railroad.
The railroad wanted a 10-odd
acre tract of its own property in
the $500 block of Wilson boule-
ward changed from residential to
limited industrial zoning. On
the property, which stretches
along the railroads right Of way.
w. & o. D. officials planned to
erect three warehouses, costing
about ST. million, with a total
capacity of 100000 square feet.
Hear Balls Plea.
The board, which was con-
Quoting a zoning meeting. took
time before the unanimous vote
to hear former State Senator
Frank Ball, ST., representing the
railroad. present the case for
rezoning.
He declared that denial of the
rezoning plea would constitute
a confiscation of railroad prop
erty."
He added that the company
would fence the area and dot its
borders with shrubs in any man.
ner the board might recommend.
The railroad has vested rights
in that land" said Hardee Cham
bliss, another railroad lawyer.
Opponents of the railroad pro-
posal, however, had no chance to
state their case. as the board
acted promptly to deny the re-
quest on a motion by Board
Member Robert H. Detwiler. The
four other members of the board
agreed the land in question
should retain its residential zon-
ing and character.
Petitions and Phone Calls.
Before the meeting, some 40
volunteers had collected more
than 1900 signatures on a petit
ton opposing the change. Active
in the opposition were the Stone-
wall Jackson Citizens Associa-
ton, the Dominion Hills Citizens
Association and the Arlington
Civic Federation.
William j. Hassan, Arlington
commemorative Attorney, said
the board was besieged by some
700 telephone calls and letters
denouncing the proposed re-
zoning. He asked that written
statements of the opposition be
placed on the record. The board
agreed to do so.
Mr.. Hassan, himself an articu-
late foe of the railroad plan.
later said the future of the
county's park system would have
been jeopardized by an indus
trial zone in the area.
County plans for the more
than 100 acres of park lands in
clude development of a chain
of parks and recreation areas,
which stretches above and below
the railroad property under dis
cuSsion, he said.

from a total of 107 applicants for

The board further declared
the selection was made on the
basis of competitive tests, al
though the clerks job does not
fall in the category of posts gov
erned by the county's merit Sys-
