Check Charge Ends
With Taxi Debt Fine

A man charged with passing
bogus checks to two cab drivers
yesterday was cleared of the
check charges in Hyattsville.
Trial Magistrate Theodore L.
Manga. however. found Will
liam j. Smith guilty of failing
to pay his cab fare and fined
him $50. after two Maryland
cabbies said he gave them rubber
checks for $3.50 and $500.
One driver said he drove
Smith around for IA hours while
they unsuccessfully tried to cash
a check. Smith allegedly spent
16 hours with the other driver
on a similar mission.
Defense Counsel Ignatius
Keane successfully argued the
checks were passed after the
debt was incurred, ruling out the
bad check charges. Court aides
said passing a worthless check
for debt previously incurred
may be the basis for a fraud
charge. but not a bad-check
charge.
Police said Smith. who listed
his address as the Mayf1ower
Hotel, last year was given a
general suspended sentence in
Prince Georges County Circuit
Court on a bad-check charge
and a three-year suspended SEN
tence in Montgomery County for
the same offenSe.

Alexandra Air Raid
Test Called Success

Alexandria's second air raid
alarm test was termed VERY
satisfactory" today.
The red alert was sounded at
10 o'clock this morning. The
all clear followed at 10:l7
o'clock.
Col. Norman E. Hartman,
U. S. A. (retired), Alexandria CO.
ordinator of civil defense, said
lack of wind and perfect func-
tioning of the .city's 10 sirens
made the test satisfactory from
the technical and mechanical
point of view."
The territory annexed by
Alexandria from Fairfax County
still is without air raid sirens,
however, he said. Col. Hartman
expects to have equipment
working there fairly soon"
During the next few months
sirens are to be installed at Shir-
ley Duke. Brookville, Strawberry

Stanley vetoes Bill
Easing Driver Rules
By the Associcted Press

RICHMOND. Va. Mar. 49,
The Moncure Couldman Ed
munds House bill easing driving
permit examinations is the first
to be vetoed by Gov. Stanley.
Gov. Stanley acted yesterday
but said the chief provisions
would be put into effect by ad-
miniStrative action.
The bill would have eliminated
the requirement that all
motorists over IS take a drivers
test for renewal Of their permits.
In addition. it would have
eliminated vertical markers used
in the parking test for new
drivers.
Gov. Stanley said he vetoed
the bill because of the Senate
amendment that extended the
validity Of a permit from three
to four years. The amendment
also would require 60-day notifl-
cation by the division of motor
vehicles of the impending ex-
oiration and increase the fee for
renewal from so to IS cents.
This provision, the Governor
said. would cost $566.000 in
revenues over a 12-year period
and would mean an immediate
loss of $141,765 by extendings
permits presently in force for a
year.

Legal TangIes Seen
In Home Rule Act

Judge Charles C. Marbury of
the 7th judicial circuit said
last night the new act of the
Legislature granting more home
rule to Maryland municipalities
will mean more work for the
judges"
He said numerous legal en-
tanglements probably will result
from a provision dividing Mary
land municipalities into four
classes. or less. according to
population. The Legislature
would be allowed to pass laws
only for cities of a certain class.
Judge Marbury told the Prince
Georges County Municipal AS
ISOLATION, at it's annual banquet,
however. that he favored the
principle of home rule. He said
the new act should remove the
annoyance of town officials hav-
ing to run to the Legislature
every year for minor changes in
their laws
The home rule act, passed by
the 1854 Legislature, is subject
to approval Of the voters in No
veInber.
Another speaker, State Sem
ator j. Raymond Fletcher. Re-
publican, of Prince Georges,
presented the association with a
pen which Gov. McKeldin used
in signing the act.

Traffic Law Hits Drivers
Trying for ReckIessness
BY the A.seeieted Press

RICHMOND. Mar. 10. - No
longer will motorists trying" for
a reckless driving charge avoid
a permit revocation under Vir-
ginia's second-offender speed
law.
A law enacted on the final day
of the recent General Assembly
provides that a person convicted
of either speeding or reckless
driving twice within a 12-month
preiod will have his permit taken
away for so days. The law goes
into effect July /.
Under present laws motorist
faces revocation only upon two
speeding convictions or two reck-
less driving convictions within
a 12-month period.
Police have noted instances
where drivers, realizing they are
being tailed as speeders, cause
their vehicles to weave in and out
of traffic in an attempt to bring
on a reckless driving charge
rather than a second speeding
offenSe.

0n-SaIe Beer License
Denied Deicatessen
In West Hyattsvi|Ie

An application for an on-sale
beer license in a West Hyattsville
delicatessen was turned down
yesterday by the Prince Georges
County Board of License Com
missioners.
The Glass D license. which the
applicant sought to transfer
from a Seat Pleasant grocery
store. was denied. the board
said. because it frownS on issuing
licenses to persons who say they
do not intend to use all of the
privileges.
Burnett Snyder. owner of the
delicatessen at 6579 Ager road.
in the Green Meadows shopping
center. said he wanted the per-
NIT to sell beer on Sunday. but
that he would not use 1t to sell
beer for consumption on the
premises, as allowed in the
Class D license.
A beer-wine and liquor permit
was granted to an Oxon Hill
MD landlord. who is leasing
restaurant space to Raymond
Smith. 1929 Bladensburg road.

The applicant. Gabriel Di
Giovanni. of 5504 Selby lane.
said a vacant store he owns at
5506 Selby lane. will be con-
verified into a restaurant. He
presented a petition signed by
SIS persons living within two
blocks of the store.
The petitioners declared the
restaurant would not detract
from the quality of the COM
munity. But Is other residents
of the area expressed the fear
that the establishment would
become a "joint" and would be
a bad influence for their chill
dren.
Mr.. Smith. formerly a New
Jersey restaurateur. assured the
board that SO per cent of the
space he rents will be devoted
to a dining area. He estimated
the bar would occupy only Is
per cent of the space.

Groups
Favor 1O-Cent
Tax Rate Rise
Citizens Oppose
15-Cent Increase
Asked by County

A maximum increase Of 10
cents in the Fairfax County tax
rate-instead of the proposed
15-cent boost-was advocated by
the county Federation Of Civic
Associations last night.
The federation made no spe-
cific recommendation for trim
ming the proposed $11.2 million
budget to eliminate cents of
the proposed $2.85 tax levy, out
indicated that much of the re-
duction might come from the
school budget.
The proposed school budget
accounts for $7.6 million of the
total budget.
Calls 1O-Cent Boost Justified.
According to the federation. a
tax rate 10 cents higher than
the current levy of $2.70 is JUS
titled to start paying of the
latest school construction nond
issue. The federation insisted
the county should not raise
taxes beyond that point. how
ever.
The federation adopted the
following three-point report Of
its Budget Committee pertain
ing TO the school budget:
/. Base new teacher salary in
creaSes on merit, instead Of each
year giving fiat across-the-board
pay raises. The new budget pro-
poses a $500 increase through
out the teacher salary scale. The
federation did not specifically
object to the new scale, but
said 1t would prefer more empha-
sis on merit than length of
service.
2. Economic on school oper-
alton and maintenance costs.
The federation argued that
school maintenance crews should
make regular visits to each
school. checking for necessary
repairs instead of waiting for
trouble calls at the School Board
Office. The federation said school
bus maintenance costs were
higher than they should be.
3. The county must continue
to press for a larger share Of
State funds. Fairfax expects
additional State money for
schools as result of legislation
passed at the recent session Of
the General Assembly. but the
exact amount has not yet been
determined.
Laud Clarity Of Budget.
The school. board and its di.
rector Of surveys and informa-
ton. Robert B. Walker. were
commended for the clear pre-
sentation Of this years school
budget.
