Arlington Employees
Will Be Requiredto
Take Loyalty 0aths

All employees of the Arlington
County Board and the School
Board will be required to take a
loyalty oath when a loyalty pro-
cedure is developed.
The School Board last night
voted to ask Supt. Edward Rut-
ter to cooperate with County
Manager A. T. Lundberg in de-
veloping a loyalty program Ito
be applied equally to all county
employees and all School Board
employees who have not signed
the teachers loyalty oath provi-
sion as prescribed by the super
intendent of public instruction
of the State Of Virginia.
The County Board, at its last
meeting. asked Mr.. Lundberg to
bring in his. recommends tions
for setting UP an employees 10y
atty procedure.
The School Board also resolved
that Mr.. Rutter inform the State
superintendent of public in
struction "of our desire to CO.
operate with the State Board of
Education in any change the
board may prescribe in the 10y
atty oath or loyalty procedure
for the teachers of the State of
Virginia"
A revised loyalty oath for
teachers had been urged by an
Arlington Woman's Democratic
Club. A special School Board
committee headed by Board
Member Erwin r. Draheim re-
ported that the present teach
ers' oath is prescribed by the
Virginia Department of Educa-
ton.
: ut follows that a local school
board has no authority to change
the loyalty oath provision in con-
tracts with teachers" the COM
mlttee said.
1T Is not only imperative that
any disloyal employe be promptly
dealt with" the committee said,
"but it is essential that any sus-
picion as to the loyalty Of one
person should not be allowed to
cast suspicion on the more than
1900 loyal employees of the board.
Such unjustified suspicion of
the whole group can do inesti-
mable harm to morale and to
the efficiency of the operation
of the whole school system"

Rockville Agrees
To Water Delivery
Terms ofCommission

Rockville officials yesterday
agreed to terms under which the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission will sell water to the
town.
Under the agreement. which is
now being drawn up in contract
form. the commission will deliver
water to Rockville's city limits
for 81 cents per 1000 gallons,
the same price charged in sub
urban Maryland.
Rockville will then pipe the
water to its homes and business
establishments through its own
system.
Laurel Rate Less.
The commission supplies water
to the city of Greenbelt for the
same rate. but Laurel gets it for
Is to IA cents per 1000 gallons.
a commission spokesman said.
The Laurel rate is fixed by
law, he said, whereas the Green
belt and Rockville rates are COM
puted on the actual cost involved.
Rockville also will pay almost
100000 for extension of the COM
MISSIONS water main along
Rockville pike. That will involve
the laying Of about 2 miles of
pipe.
To Augment Supply.
The town needs the additional
water to augment its own sys-
tenn, which is supplied from wells
and which has not been able to
keep pace with the city's rapid
growth.
Rockville also is negotiating
with the utility for help with
sewage disposal. The State health
department, claiming that the
inadequacy of the towns sewage
system constitutes a health
menace. has ordered Rockville

Community Hostility
Upheld by Court in
Beer License Denial
By J. [. Michoel

Liquor license denials based
on opposition by a preponderance
of area citizens are proper. in
the opinion of Prince George
County Circuit Judge Charles c..
Marbury.
The court so ruled yesterday,
in affirming county liquor board
edict denying an on-sale beer
license at 1881 University lane.
Takoma Park. The decision is
expected to close the long and
hard fought case.
Liquor Board members refused
the permit on December II, after
it met stiff opposition from area
civic associations. the city of Ia
koma Park and Washington Mis-
sionary College students.
Board Cited Opposition.
Herman Stern. operator of
Stems delicatessen. sought to
transfer a class D license from
Harry's Diner. Laurel, to the
University lane address.
The liquor board held there
was no immediate need for beer
there and that approval would
be contrary to community feel
ing.
Contending that the boards
decision was arbitrary, capri
ciouS and illegal" Mr.. Stern ap-
pealed through Attorney Leroy
Humphrey. Mr.. Humphrey ar
gued yesterday that many Of
those who fought the permit
lived too far away to be affected.
Legality Only Question.
Judge Marbury. in his decision,
pointed out the courts lack the
power to substitute their opin-
ion for those of administrative
bodies and that the only ques-
ton before him was that of
legality.
To upset the Liquor Board rul-
ing, the court said, it would be
necessary to find that there was
need for the permit and that
there was no substantial evidence
as to community sentiment.
"It isn't for the court to say"
Judge Marbury said, whether
the people who protested are
unreasonable. Right or wrong,
their expressions must be given
consideration and weight.
1.-THE board acted within the
law and upon substantial evil
dence."

GreenbeIt Citizens
Fight Belt Highway

The Greenbelt Citizens AsSo-
citation last night passed a reso-
luton opposing the Maryland
State Roads Commissions cur
rent plan for construction Of the
Inter-county Belt Freeway
through the city.
The move added one more
Greenbelt group to a list that
includes the City Council and
the Greenbelt Veterans Housing
Corp, which have protested the
proposed plan to Gov. McKeldin.
Mayor Francis j. Lastner last
week called the proposal "a
jeopardy to the orderly develop
ment of the city as planned
community-a master plan for
expansion which was devised by
the Maryland National Capital
Parks and Planning Commission
Itself"
The veterans group said this
week that the proposed cut
through the city, If not changed,
would seriously jeopardize the
residents investment in property
in the whole area"
Many residents charged last
night that it would create a traf-
f1c hazard, interfere with the
sewage disposal system, and
cause the destruction of recrea-
tional areas and historical sites
of the city. One official con-
firmed reports that many such
facilities would be impaired.
The resolution, to be for
warded to the Governor this
week provides for appointment
of committee to meet with the
council, the veterans group and
the two commissions to discuss
possibilities for relocating the
freeWay around CITY limits.

Ssor SsoH Correspondent

RICHMOND, Jan. 29.-Arling-
ton could levy a 2 per cent retail
sales tax under legislation now
before the General Assembly.
The proposal was introduced
here yesterday by all of the
county's legislative delegation. ex-
cept Delegate Harrison Mann.
He said he did not believe there
was enough public demand for
such a proposal.
It was the first time the
county's four-member delegation
has divided on legislation at the
current session. Delegate
Kathryn Stone. who held out
until the last minute. finally
agreed to sign her name to the
sales tax bill of Delegate j. May
nard Magruder because authority
for the Arlington County Board
to impose sales tax of not more
than per cent would have to be
approved in a county referendum.
An identical bill was sponsored
at the other end of the Capitol
by Senator Charles r. Fenwick.
The legislation had been re-
quested by the county board.
The Fairfax delegation. mean
while, was preparing q sales tax
bill Of similar scope applicable
to that county. Like the Airing
ton delegation. the Fairfax
group is opposed to a general
sales tax proposition but feels
such a law should be on the
books as a defensive measure"
in the event Arlington imposes
the measure.
All of the patrons are acting
on specific requests of their local
governing bodies.
The Arlington sales tax pro-
poSal will be given to a hearing
at $3.50 pm. Thursday by the
Counties. Cities and Towns
Committee. headed by Mr..
Magruder.
On February 8, a hearing will
be held on a bill to authorize
extra judges for Arlington and
Fairfax.
Another bill offered by the
Arlington delegation would au-
thorize the county to set up a
central purchasing bureau for
all departments.

Delegates Back Repeal
OF Personal Property Tax

RICHMOND. Va, Jan. 90
Tax and money-conscious legis-
lators have pushed a proposal
aimed at exempting personal eff
fects and household goods from
local taxation past the halfway
mark in the Virginia General
Assembly.
They won House approval yes
terday by a 67-to-28 vote of the
Richmond delegation-sponsored
resolution that would let the AS
sembly decide ultimately whether
the difficult-to-e nforce tax
should be levied or lifted.
Since the question involved
is a constitutional one, this As
sembly and the next one must
approve the resolution, which
then would go to vote of the
people.
The repeater was decried by
number of legislators who ar
gued the localities already were
not being forced to shop around
Tor new revenue sources and
should not lose one they already
have.
But the view prevailed that
the tax put an undue penalty on
honesty. since the tax Is largely
self-assessed.. The House. how
ever. breathed heavily on both
sides Of the matter for As min
utes before it went to a vote.
Delegate Griffith Purcell of
Richmond. principal patron of
the resolution. argued the plan
doesn't envision lifting the tax
on such property as automobiles
which tax commissioners can
easily assess by make and model,
In fact, said Mr.. Purcell, the
resolution won't affect anything
at all in The next four or five
years. And then. he said, the
matter of exemption or partial
exemption is left to the Legisla-
ture.

Fairfax Board
To Consider
Six New Taxes
Estimated to Yield
$500 900 Extra
Revenue Annually

The Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors on Wednesday will
consider six new taxes recon-
mended by its citizen tax COM
mission, to bring in new revenue
estimated around $500. 900 an
nually.
In report filed with the SUI
pervisors yesterday. the COM
mission suggested five new taxes
which could be imposed in time
for the 1954-5 budget. A sixth
new tax was recommended as
soon as legislation permits.
$35O.OOO Revenue Estimated.
The committee estimated the
five taxes recommended for i'm
mediate enactment would bring
the county an additional $780,
900 annually. These are:
/. A SIS county automobile
license tax. The Board of SUI
pervisors already has taken steps
to put this in effect. It is ex-
pected to bring in 100000 an
nually from passenger cars alone.
2. A tax on rentals-2 per cent
on transient rentals such as mo-
tells, hotels and tourist homes,
and / per cent on other rentals.
This is expected to bring in
$95 900 a year.
3. A wholesale trade license tax.
based on 10 cents per 500 of
gross receipts. At present. the
committee expects this tax would
bring in only $4,000 annually.
4. A retail trade license tax of
1875 cents per 500 gross receipts.
Revenue expected from this tax
is $4,000.
S. A service trade license tax
at the same rate. This is figured
to raise another $54, 600 revenue.
Levy on Property Transfers.
The sixth tax recommended by
the committee is a l per cent
levy on all property transfers.
except requests and gifts within
a family. The committee was
uncertain whether this tax would
require any special legislation,
therefore recommended its en-
actment "as soon as possible. "
With the large volume Of real
estate sales recorded in Fairfax
County each year, the committee
said the transfer tax could yield
$250.000 annually.
The tax commission said it
also considered a sales tax and
a tax on utility bills, but rejected
both.
The supervisors have asked
for legislation to impose a county
sales tax in case Arlington de-
cideS to do so.
The tax commission was ap-
pointed by the supervisors last
May to recommend new sources
of revenue.
Chairman Warren Quenstedy,
Donald L. wilkins and Henry E.
Dement, prepared the written
report of the commission. The
other commission members are
Gerard Brannon, r. M. Sullivan,
Henry M. Lindsay. Mrs. Clara
Sentel, John Middleton. Minor

and Charles M. Plat.
