Fairfax Vote Sought
On S17.5 Million
Sewer Bond Issue

Fairfax County voters will be
asked to vote early in December
on a SITS million sewer bond is
sue, even though several legal
barriers may take year to solve.
County Executive Carlton Mas
sey told the Fairfax Civic FEEDER
alton last night he plans to call
for the referendum as a test of
public sentiment on a county
wide sewer system.
Since the County Board re-
jected a proposed sanitary au-
thority last year, his Office has
spent 100000 surveying physical
needs and. legal grounds. Mr..
Massey said.
One legal question will have
to await a State Supreme Court
test before bonds can actually be
sold, he said. The question is
whether the county can contract
with Alexandria for more than
one year at a time to build a
SO million joint disposal system.
The joint plan, already agreed
to by both parties, is the only
economical answer to the county's
disposal problem, he said.
Debt. Another Problem.
Another legal bar is the exist
ence of Sanitary District No. /.
A county system cannot exclude
the district, he said, but it's pres
ent SO million debt must be re-
tired before any more bonds can
be sold.
A further question is whether
the bonds should be revenue
bonds, which are harder to sell
but do not count against the
county's legal debt limit, or gen.
eral obligation bonds which are
guaranteed by taxes. This ques-
ton will have to be answered
before the issue goes to the
voters.
Mr. Massey said a countrywide
sewer system would cost users
more than many expect. He
estimated average rates would
be somewhere between $50 and
$40 a year, in addition to taxes
now being paid in sanitary Dis
trict No. /.
But the alternatives, he de-
clared, are either the present dis
trict system or a separate author
ity which would be outside coun-
ty control and which has once
been rejected.
Intervention Asked.
In other business, the Fedora
ton asked the county board to
intervene in two utilities cases
pending before the State Cor
poration Commission.
It asked the board to protest
a proposed consolidation of the
Washington Gaslight Co., the
Rosslyn Gas Co. and the Potomac
Gas Co. 1t also asked county
officials to oppose a schedule of
rate increases applied for by the
Fairfax Hydraulics Water Co.
Reporting on the proposed
water rate increase, Omer L. Hirst
told the Federation the problem
of private water companies is
getting more and more out of
hand"

Tolerance and Restraint Urged
By SobeIon in Rockville Talk

Chief Judge Simon E. Sobeloff
of the Maryland Court of Ap-
pealS told a Constitution Day
crowd at Rockville, Md, yester-
day there is an urgent need for
tolerance and restraint in public
debate and action.
In an address commemorate
ing the signing of the Constitu-
ton 166 years ago, the jurist
said moderation and concilia-
ton we're needed most when
we are dead sure we are wholly
right and our neighbor wholly
wrong"
Judge Sobeloff said this does
not mean being "soft-headed"
in dealing with treason. But. he

democracy itself implies full op-
portunity for the interplay of
diversities of opinion, of culture
and ideals. =. "
''The utmost tolerance should
never be denied to sincere
thoughts or proposals merely
because they are unpopular"
Judge Sobelof continued.
Some $50 persons attended the
ceremonies on the courthouse
lawn sponsored by the Mont
gomery County Bar Association.
Included among the guests was

Clean Primary
Urged in Talk
.ByD'Alesandro
Young Democrats
Hear Mayor Stress
Need for Harmony

OCEAN CITY, Md. Sept. 18.-
Baltimore Mayor Thomas D'Ales-
andre, a candidate for Demo-
cratic nomination for Governor,
said today the party can win the
1854 general election if it elm
mates mud singing and char
acter assassination" from the
spring primary and conducts a
clean campaign.
In a keynote address prepared
for the opening of a three-day
State convention of Young Dem
ocrats, he sharply criticized "the
suicidal tactics" of the last two
primaries, saying: 1--WE destroyed
ourselves and let the Republicans
roll on to unearned victories"
He urged the party to set
unity and harmony" as it's
theme for next years cam
paigning.
1--WE know" he said, "there
will be no Democratic victory in
1854 if there is a repetition of
the kind of primary we expert
enced in the last two Statewide
elections.
Backs Primary Contest.
At the same time. Mayor
D'Alesandro made clear he feels
the party should wage an active
primary and not try to hand
pick a single candidate before
hand to represent it in the gen.
eral election.
Noting that some party lead
ers feel that only by eliminating
a contest in the primary can
party unity be restored, Mayor
D'Alesandro said he disagreed.
1--WE need not fear a primary
if the contest is conducted with
decency on the records of the
contestants and in the Ameri-
can way" he said.
Incidentally" Mayor Dale
sandro remarked at one point in
his speech, Il am in the race to
stay"
So far he is the only candi-
date to publicly announce for
the nomination. DR.. H. c. Byrd,
retiring as president of the Uni
versity of Maryland has declared
"unofficially" he will run. And
Baltimore Contractor George P.
Mahoney, who lost the nomina-
ton to former Gov. William
Preston Lane in a bruising pri-
mary in 1850, has all but an
nounced his candidacy. Mr..
Lane was defeated for re-elec-
ton by Gov. McKeldin.
MahOney Is Target.
Mr.. Mahony, without being
mentioned by name, was the
target for some of Mayor
D'Alesandro's sharpest remarks
in today's speech.
"Our last Democratic State
administration will go down in
history as one of the most
progressive in the entire history
OF our State" Mayor D'Alesandro
said. But did this fact help in
the last gubernatorial campaign? i?
You know the answer.
Blinded by mud-Democratic
mud, if you please-the people
of Maryland turned that great
Democratic administration out
of office.
There was a change of heart
by many voters soon after that
election, but the damage had
been done"
Mayor D'Alesandro also took
note of the 1852 primary. be-
tween Mr.. Mahoney and former
Representative Lansdale G.. Sass
Ger for the senatorial nomina-
ton. Mr.. Mahoney won the
nomination but lost the general
election to j. Glenn Beall.
"We saw a repetition of the
tragedy in the last senatorial
campaign" Mayor D'Alesandro
said, "and another beloved Mary
land statesman met undeserved
defeat"

old M. Stephens Of the q. s.
Court of Appeals for the District
and Bolitha J. Laws, chief Judge
of the U. S. District Court for
the District.
Judge Laws announced the
move following a conference
with Judge Stephens and re-
presentatives of the District
Commissioners and the Justice
Department.
The proposed family court, al
ready indorsed by the judicial
conference, would hear nothing
but domestic relations cases, in
cluding divorces. This would free
the other judges for presiding at
other types of cases.
Judge Laws told reporters an
increasing number of important
and lengthy cases are coming
into this jurisdiction. Under the
present setup, he said, 1t Is vir-
tually impossible to make a dent
in the current backlog of cases.
