MIR. Milbouer said, that these
1854 amendments to the social
security law preserve the contri-
butory and self-sustaining princi-
piles of the old-age and survivors
insurance sytem, as well as the
principle that benefits are related
to the level of the workers
earnings.
"All benefit payments and costs
of administering the program are
paid out of the special Trust
Fund into which go the social
security taxes paid by employees,
employers, and the self employed.
THE tax rate is now scheduled
to reach a maximum of percent
each for employee and employer
in 1875. 1t remains at the present
Q percent each until 1860, with
intermediate steps between 1886
and 1875. Self-employed persons
pay at 11a times the employee
rate.

KNOXVILLE, Md, Feb. g.
j. r. Hardy. a farmer who lives

of recent stories that black bears
frequent the southern section of
the two counties.
Mr.. Hardy found a dead calf
on his farm but was unable to
bury the carcass Immediately.
Returning the next day, he said
he discovered some animal had
eaten most of the calf.
Mr.. Hardy placed some bait on
a heavy otter trap and secured
it with a chain. He was taken i'll
and didn't get back to the trap
for several days.
The farmer said he found the
foot of a small black bear. He
speculated the bear cheWed off
its foot to escape the trap.
He has reset his trap and hopes

Juvenile 0ffendersin
Courthouse Quarters

Juveniles detained in Arling-
ton will no longer be confined in
jail with adult prisoners or sent
to detention facilities in WASH
ington and Richmond.
The Arlington County Board
yesterday, on a motion by its
new member. Democrat Wesley
w. Cooper, authorized funds to
hire personnel for new juvenile
detention quarters in the Airing
ton Courthouse.
County Court Judge Hugh
Reid. who also sits on the Ju-
venile and Domestic Relations
Court bench, said:
This is not the ultimate an
swer to our problems. but jul
veniles over IA, who may legally
be put in the county Jail, will
have separate facilities"
The County Board voted 81, 800
toward the payment of salaries
for two matronS and two addi-
tional probation officers. Virginia
State funds will pay for half the
probation officers salaries and
two thirds of the matrons' SAL
aries.
The county government also
will purchase equipment for the
four rooms now available next
to the Jail. The equipment cost
will later be borne entirely by
the State.
Judge Reid said the quarters,
formerly occupied by a resident
jailer, should be ready within a
month. He said the new space
will accommodate a maximum of
10 juveniles.

Citizens Backing Him
In Willard Dispute,
Beverley Asserts

Alexandria Mayor Marshall J.
Beverley yesterday took issue
with statements by three civic
associations in support of city
council resolution that censured
the mayor for his public remarks
against City Manager Ira
Willard.
The associations said they
were in sympathy with that por-
ton of the council resolution
which stressed the Importance of
charter provisions defining the
separation Of powers between the
mayor and the city manager.
The council resolution went
further. however. to criticize the
mayor for publicly attacking Mr..
Willard.
Mayor Beverley said only the
executive committees of the
associations had taken formal
action. The statements were
issued by the North Ridge
Citizens Association. the Old
Town Civic Association and the
Strawberry Hills Community
Association.
The mayor said he had re-
ceived at least 800 telephone
calls, letters and personal visits
from Alexandria residents who
supported him. He said many
came from residents of the
North Ridge area, where he lives.
II voted for the present
charter. and I believe in city
m anager government" said
Mayor Beverley. But I do
not think the charter ever was
intended to require any member
of council to sit in silence when
things are brought to his at
tention that ought to be done. F."

Wafer Board
Joins Virginia
.SewageDispufe
Validity Of Joint
Disposal System
Is Challenged

Fearful that the fate Of vir-
ginia's entire pollution abate-
ment program is at stake. the
State Water Control Board is
intervening in a suit that chal-
lenges validity Of a joint sewage
disposal agreement between
Alexandria and Fairfax County.
The water board has filed
petition in Fairfax Circuit Court.
joining the Alexandria Santa
ton Authority and Fairfax
County in defense of the suit.
Trial Of the suit begins Tuesday.
The challenged agreement
commits Alexandria and Fairfax
County to a $10.4 million joint
sewage disposal system. Engi-
neers estimate the two commune
ties can save $2.1 million in
original construction costs by
proceeding together instead Of
separately. The system would
serve all Of Alexandria and por-
tons of Fairfax County which
cannot be accommodated at the
county's new sewage disposal
plant nearing completion.
$215.OO0 Payments.
Under the agreement, Fairfax
County's $500. 900 share of the
initial cost would be paid off in
$215.000 annual payments. The
county would pay additional
charges for operating costs.
The Alexandria Sanitation Au-
thority proposes to issue all
bonds to finance the joint prof.
ect. Attorneys recommended test
litigation, however, before offer
ing bonds for sale. The test
suit was brought by Norman
Farquhar. Henry L. Moore and
Henry r. Wharton III as repre-
sentative taxpayers.
The suit contends that the
agreement is unconstitutional,
that payments by the county
would be excessive. and that the
Virginia State Water and Sewer
Authorities Act is unconstitu-
tional. Alexandria's sanitation
authority was the first estab.
liShed under that act.
Water Board Prodded.
The water boards intervening
petition. prepared by Assistant
General Frederick T. Gray.
states that the water board is
"vitally interested in the valid
ity of the Alexandria sanitation
authority and in the validity of
the contract both of which
have a substantial bearing on
the success of future efforts of
the board to carry out it's duties
under the State Water Control
Law"
Mr.. Gray said yesterday that
the water board had prodded
Alexandria for years to do some
thing about pollution. IF the
authority program is killed. "
