Meeting Requested
By Mayor Beverley
On Development Job

Alexandria Mayor Marshall j..
Beverley announced yesterday
that he had asked the city coun-
ellis new housing committee to
meet as soon as possible to con-
slider the proposed Prince street
commercial redevelopment prof.
ect.
The mayor said the new COM
mittee chairman, James M. Dun
can. jr.. indicated he would call a
meeting this week to arrange a
joint session with the Alexandria
Redevelopment and Housing Au-
thority on the commercial rede-
velopment plan.
I'VE want to get the fate of
this project settled" said the
Mayor who has been an outspo-
ken foe of the commercial re-
development plan. Think of
the people who live In that area
they deserve to know what is
going to happen to their homes. F"
The new housing committee
was appointed by Mayor Bever-
ley Friday after he discharged
the former committee because
he said it had too many city
employees" on it. The former
committee had recommended ap-
prevail of the commercial rede-
velopment plan. and a majority
of the new committee members
is known to oppose it.
The redevelopment plan was
referred back to the housing au-
thority last week for further
study over the mayors protests,
and despite the fact that a ma
jority of city council members
announced opposition to the
project.

Sits Applicants
For County Job
Council Hos Eye
On 4 1t Wants for
Managers Post
By ChorIes [. Hoffmon

The Montgomery county
Council has its eye on four ap-
plicants for the county man
ayers post vacant now for nearly
eight weeks.
The council meeting behind
closed doors for three hours, yes
terday screened so applications
for the position.
Only, Is were believed eligible
according to council President
Harold F. Hammond, because Of
q charter requirement that an
applicant have adequate ex-
perience as an administrator in
municipal government"
Mr.. Hammond said the prob
lem Of getting a new manager
may be solved this week if the
council can agree unanimously
on a man before Thursday. On
that day councilman Louis A.
Gravelle is to leave for a Euro
pean vacation which will keep
him out of the, county until
September z.
Salary Is Limitation.
The four whom the council
wants to interview early this
week are among nine whose APP
phcations indicate they are best
qualified for the job Mr.. Ham
mond said.
The council admittedly is held
back In seeking to I'LL the post
by the $4,000 salary limitation
now in effect. Comparable COM
munities, generally speaking, are
paying $4,000 to $18, 900 a year
for their managers.
Some councilmen are known
to feel the council should con-
tinue Alex K. Hancock as acting
manager until after the Novem-
Der election at which the voters
will decide whether the salary
ceiling is to be lifted and also
Will choose a new council.
Mr.. Hammond. however, fears
some residents already consider
the post a political type" in
stead of the professional post
intended under the council
manager form Of government.
Other observers believe the
council is unlikely to get top
level candidates at this time be-
cause Of the political instability
in the county. At best, only two
members Of the present council
can be returned to Office and
none of the members who have
served as president Of the coun-
Gil are on the general election
ballot.
Most Are q. S. Employees.
Despite these obstacles, Mr..
Hammond feels the present
council. because Of it's four years
experience in office is .as well
qualified and perhaps better
qualified" than a new council
would be in selecting q manager.
The council is seeking a re-
placement for Edward e. Beall,,
named to the post last year, who
resigned May Is after he was.
indicted in Portsmouth, Ohio,
on a charge of embezzling funds
while serving as city manager
and acting director of the CITY,
owned hospital there.
Mr.. Hammond said that is of
the applicants are from the
Washington area-most of them
Federal employees.
