ANNAPOLIS, Jan. %. - A
group of Democrats in the
Maryland General Assembly
today was making plans for
adapting Virginia's automatic
income tax reduction law to ap-
ply to Free State taxpayers.
Eleven Senators who lost q
fight to gain control of the State
Senate earlier this month are
behind the move.
Senator Bernard s. Melnicove
of Baltimore, a leader of the
group. said during a Senate
hearing on Gov. McKeldin's $195
million budget yesterday that a
bill Is being prepared to In
corporate the features Of Vir-
ginia's so-called Byrd tax reduc-
ton plan.
Byrd Law Pattern.
The Virginia law was authored
by State Senator Harry F. Byrd,
jr., of Winchester. son of the
United States Senator. in 1850.
and revised in 1852 Under its
provisions, State taxpayers get
an automatic reduction in their
bills when revenue exceeds es-
Inmates by percentages specif1ed
IN q complicated formula.

Arlington Group Opposes
Four Mile Run Rezoninu

The Democratic Council of Ar
lington has asked the Alexandria
City Council to deny a rezoning
request that would permit opera
ton of an amusement park on
the southeast side of F1,r Mile
Run.
They area, which adjoins the
Arlington County line, would, if
used as an amusement park. do
irreparable harm to the Airing
ton residential area, the reSolu-
ton declares. The Alexandra
Planning Commission already has
recommended denial Of the re-
zoning request, the Arlington
group said.
Edward o. Poole, chairman of
the Zoning and Planning COM
mittee of the Democratic organ
ization, said his committee would
ask the next meeting of the Ar
lington County Board to eStab-
lish a special commission on land
utilization. The object would be
to utilize and develop high rev-
enue-producing property so that
the maximum tax potential would
be reached, Mr.. Poole said.

McNayrHits Agencies
For Keeping County
In Dark About Plans

Officials of Montgomery Coun-
ty want to be let in on what
agencies are planning for the
county before the agencies spring
the plans on the public.
Irving G. McNayr, the. county
manager, complained yesterday
that the State Roads Commits
sion and the Maryland National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission do not consult local gov
ernments before releasing their
proposals.
He told the County Council
that newspapers have been car
rying stories on the road COM
missions 12-year program for
several weeks. And the county
received a copy Of the program
only yesterday, he said.
He also said he was turned
down several times when he
asked to see copy OF the plan
ming groups 25-year master
highway plans.
The county manager paid a
left-handed compliment to Vir-
ginia.
The neighbor State isn't better
than Maryland very often, he
remarked, but Virginia'S system
Of getting public sentiment is
superior. He said Virginia au-
thorities take their plans to local
governments and civic groups be-
fore making up their minds on
the proposals.
Mr.. McNayr said he's had sew
eral requests from Montgomery
County residents, asking for in
formation on road and highway
plans.

Planners Rebuffed
Again on Sale Of
County Park Tract

That triangular piece of park
land near West HyattSville Is
not going to be rezoned COM
mercial, despite a new and gin
gerry request of the Maryland
National Park and Planning
Commission.
The Prince Georges commits
Sioners, somewhat peppery them
selves. said mo" again yesterday
at their meeting in Upper Marl-
borO.
The dispute between the two
groups began a week ago when
the commissioners refused to
classify the tract at their month
ly zoning meeting.
Their decision was given when
the planning group told the COM
missioners the property, bounded
by Hamilton street and Ager and
Queens Chapel roads, is insult
able for development as a recrea,.
ton area.
Contending that proposed pub
lie sale of the land would place
valuable commercial property
on the tax roles, the planning
agency asked that 1T be shifted
from residential, then sold and
the proceeds used for park de-
velopment elsewhere.
A group Of area businessmen
objected. They held that the
tract should be used for a park
ing lot. The commissioners
said they feel the planners
should stick to their maps and
not go into the real estate busi-
ness.
In other business. the commits
sioners appropriated $500 for a
new three-montl experimental
plan for care Of INDECENT out
patients. The plan win be inau-
gurated on April /.

The patients call this hospital
''Narco" - from the form er
name, the United States Narcotic

name was that it made some in
the area believe the institution
was a place where the Federal
Government raised narcotics.
Established in 1889.
The hospital was set up in
1889 for treatment of drug ad-
diets. 1t is in the center OF
the tobacco country and the
thoroughbred race horse coun-
try, near the home of the Uni
versity of Kentucky. and in the
middle of what once was a thriv-
ing hemp industry. The same
plant that produces hemp pro-
vides marijuana, and the hos
pital still has little trouble
with marijuana growing wild on

The patients first contact with
hospital authority is at the gates,
six miles out Leesburg pike from
Lexington. He gets there him

or is brought by a law enforce

dict-we could call him John

After the interview. Smith
goes to the shower room, dis
robes completely and steps into
the shower.
Clothing Examined.
The clothing he drops is ex-
amined carefully for contraband.
Then it is sent off to the
cleaning and repair shop to be
put in order and held-along
with his valuable personal be-
longings-until Smith is ready
to leave.
Except for a pair of new black
or brown shoes, a plain color
sweater, unlined house slippers
and black or white sox, he is
permitted to have none of his
own clothing. All that he will
wear at the hospital will be fur
nished to him.
If his clothing is in such shape
that it can't be repaired, it will
be destroyed. When Smith is
ready to leave the hospital, the
institutions clothing industry
will turn out a new outfit for
him, everything he will need, de-
pending on where he is going.
When Smith steps out of the
shower, he is handed pajamas.
a bathrobe and slippers-made
in the hospitals shops. He now
is member of the "pajama set"
and will wear nothing but the
pajamas and bathrobe until his
treatment is fin
iShed.
Curious About Shot.
The admitting doctor gives
Smith a preliminary physical
examination, much like the pre-
liminary cursory draft physical,
and takes down his medical his
tory. Again he is asked when he
had his last shot.
This is his first contact with a
man at the hospital, and
probably will ask the
routine question:
When do I get a shot, Doc?"
Speed is one of the keys to the
patients admittance to the hos
pital. The idea back Of this is
to get him under treatment as
soon as possible. s's ~
While Smith is being taken

Opposition Develops
Over AIIotments
To Nearby Areas
BY ssoff Correspondent Of The stor

q
ANNAPOLIS, Jan. 28.-The
first signs of opposition to the
Maryland Roads Commissions
12-year, 1858 million highway
program have developed around
the large amounts that would
be allotted to Montgomery and
Prince Georges Counties.
The roads program came up
for its first hearing yesterday by
the House Ways and Means
Committee. Russell H. Mccain,
chairman of the State Roads
Commission, and several of his
assistants pleaded for approval
Ut the program.
Concentrated Program.
Mr.. Mccain conceded the big
gest share of the 12-year pro-
gram is concentrated in four or
five large counties. He urged
the lawmakers to look upon the
program from the adequacy of
the roads" their counties will re-
ceive, rather than from the view
point of how much money will
be spent in their counties.
He said 1858 per cent of the
$568 million that would be spent
in the 12-year program would
go to Prince Georges and Mcrt-
gomery Counties. Those two
counties would receive 15.49 per
cent Of the total mileage Of new
roads of reconstruction con-
templated.
It costs more to build adequate
roads in the Metropolitan Area
counties. he said. because ex-
pensive dual lane highways are
needed there to handle the
heavy traffic.
Opposition to one phase Of the
program came from Delegates
Horace p, Whitworth, jr.. Re-
publican, of Allegany County
and Arthur H. Green. Republi-
can, of Garrett County. They
said they do not like the idea
OF carrying a dual-lane highway
into Western Maryland only as
far as Hancock. where it would
connect with the Pennsylvania
Turnpike over roads Pennsyl-
vania intends to improve. That
would cause through traffic to
bypass most of Western Mary
land, they objected.
Substitute Plan Urged. ss
Delegate A. Gordon Boone,
Democrat, of Baltimore County
asked if the l2-year program
could not be broken into three
separate programs Of four years
each so far as financing is con-
cerned. The Roads Commission
officials agreed that to break UP
the program could be inefficient
and costly to the taxpayers.
Mr.. Mccain suggested that
the commission would like more
authority to charge tolls on GER
tain roads.
He said the commission is now
authorized to set up toll roads.
but only If the tolls would make
the roads self-supporting. This
rules out the Annapolis WASH
ington Expressway and the new
Washington National Pike to
Frederick, both now under con-
struction. he said. He added
that tolls cannot be charged on
the new Baltimore Washington
Expressway because the Federal
Government does not permit
tolls on roads it builds or helps
to build.
