Mr.. Broyhill declared President

has assumed many Of the duties

the responsibility Of the States.
This has resulted because Of
"lethargic local and State gov

A summary Of trafic acci-

Leads All Counties.
The State Police report. given
in detail for January, February
and March, said Montgomery
County's total Of is led the
counties in number of highway
deaths.
The 81 deaths reported in all
counties in February represented
an all-time high for traffic ia
talities in a 28-day period. Dur
ing that month, one person was
killed every IL hours and one in
jured every Al minutes in the
State.
Release Of the summary CO.
incided with the Montgomery
County Safety Boards launching

cial meeting attended by police

discuss the safety drive.
I'VE are gravely concerned
over the increase in accidents
this year." Mr.. Miller said. In
the summary, there are besides
the fatality statistics, figures
that tabulated causes for all
accidents as well as other sig
nif1cent facts on 1952's highway
casualties.
Accident causes were listed in
order Of incidence. Failing to

Excessive speed, $40; following
too closely, 318; improper turn,
1853; driving under the influence
Of alcohol. 154, and improper
passing, 154.
The nearly $4,000 automobile
accidents in Maryland last year
were analyzed by State Police,
who found:
/. A leading cause of accidents
was the stubborn refusal Of one
driver to grant the right Of way
to another. OF all drivers in
volved in accidents, Alto were
charged with failure to yield
right Of way.
2. Fast driving was the chief
cause in the most serious smash
ups-those which resulted In
deaths.

sons with II years or more Of ex-

Small Increase
.|sExpectedi in
Arlington Tax
Board Indicates Boost
But Nowhere Near
49 Cents Proposed

Arlington's 1858 tax rate will
be higher than last years but
nowhere near the Accent boost
originally proposed. County
Board members indicated yester-
day.
The board decided to meet at
the Courthouse at 8 pm, May
IL. to approve the budget and
set tax rates for the fiscal year
beginning July /.
An interim budget committee
recommended to the board
changes in the $17.1 million
budget that would permit re-
tention Of present tax rates.
Board members received the
report but would not comment
of1cially. The committee citi-
zens was headed by Earnest j.
Holcomb. .
Tag Boost Opposed.
One Of the committees rec
concentrations was that the
present county auto license fee
of about IS be increased to $40.
Board members yesterday re-
peated a position they had ex-
pressed previously. that they OPP
pose changing this fee, at least
while its legality is being chal-
lenged.
Attorney John Locke Green
has appealed to the State Su-
preme Court an Arlington Cir
cult Court decision upholding
validity Of the auto tag ordi-
nance.
The committee recommended
a 100000 cut in the school
budget. Among the suggestions
was a teacher salary increase Of
$100 instead of $500, as proposed
by the School Board.
Two board members predicted
yesterday that the budget when
approved will permit a salary in
crease "closer to 500 than $780,"
Positions Questioned.
The $500 increase, if approved,
would go to teachers not now
receiving the maximum of $4,000
for bachelors degree holders or
IS 800 for those with a masters
degree.
Cost of the $500 increase has
been estimated by Supt. T. Ed
ward Rutter at $375.000. This
amount would be in addition to
$155,000 set up in the proposed
budget to meet normal yearly
salary increases.
Board members said they have
not yet made up their minds
about retaining three positions
which some citizens have sug-
gested might be eliminated. They
are: director of civil defense.
executive assistant to the Public
Utilities Commission, and direc-
tor Of public safety.
Action Due by May Is.
The committee recommended
that the executive assistant po-
sition be abolished, and that civil
defense functions be transferred
to the public safety department.
The County Board must take
final action on the budget by
midnight, May Is.
Present tax rates are $2.81 per
500 of property valuation on
real estate, and $3.10 on personal
property.
Part of the new revenue re-
quired will be met through taxes
on about $40 million in assessed
valuation added during the past
year. Total assessed valuation
now is estimated at $3.50, ,403, ,028.
Some additional revenue will
come from State and Federal
sources,
