Cdr-Was1 Firm
Files Suit 10
Halt Water Ban
AIexundriu Company,
Its Business Closed,
Seeks Injunction

Aiexandria's largest car wash
firm today illed suit to prevent
enforcement Of the city's emer-
gency water ban, which shut
down the firm on Friday.
The Alexandria Minute Man
Car Wash, Inc, on Oronoco
street. asks for q temporary in
junction to prevent the city and
the Alexandria Water Co. from
denying use Of water for com.
mercial automobile washing. Ar
guments for the temporary in.
junction were scheduled to be
heard in Alexandria Circuit
Court at 2 pm. today.
The firm. which claimed 1t
crossed $50, 467.33 In the past
fiscal year. claimed that there is
no longer a water emergency.
and that the authority for ban
ming unnecessary uses does not
cover commercial operations.
Defendants Named.
Named defendant in the suit
are City Manager Ira F. Willard,
who invoked the emergency or
dinance; the Alexandria Water
Co.. which declared the emer-
gency. and the City of Alexan-
dria. represented by Mayor Mar
shall j. Beverley.
James Thomson, attorney who
filed the suit. declared that the
car-wash firm had rent and other
fixed obligations to meet, and
could not be without income. The
suit charges that the ban is de-
priving the firm of means to meet
its commitments. Minute Man
employees Is to Is persons.
According to the suit, the firm
used $4,000 gallons of water in
June.
The ordinance banning the
unnecessary use of water Is
termed unreasonable and arbi-
trary" and, the suit charges, il
unconstitutional in that it
amounts to the unlawful taking
Of property without Just COM
pensation.
| Alexandria has two CONNER
cial car-wash establishments.
The operator Of the other one,
situated on Franklin street, was
arrested and charged with doing
business Illegally after the ban
was imposed.
Cleared of Charges.
Yesterday he was cleared of
charges that he violated the
city's emergency ban on nom
essential water uses after it was
shown that he was the victim
of a mixup.
The operator Of an Alexandria
automobile laundry yesterday
was clearedsof charges that he
violated the city's emergency
ban on non-essential water uses
after it was shown that he was
the victim Of a mixup.
Howard C. Richards, manager
Of the Alexandra Water Co.. ex-
planned that erroneous instruc.
tions about the water ban had
been given to Jack Hochreigh, 81,
of 1921 Varnum street NV.
Testifying in Mr.. Hochreigh's
behalf in Alexandria Police
Court. Mr.. Richards. declared
that water company employees
believed the emergency ban did
not apply to automobile laundries
and so advised Mr.. Hochreigh.
Alexandria police, however. had
been told that it did. Police
charged Mr.. Hochreigh with vio-
lating the water law.
Judge James N. Colasanto dis
missed the case after Mr.. Rich
ards testified.

Farmers Home Administration,
and DR.. James NJ. Gwin, di-
rector of the Maryland Extension
Service.
The drought assistance law
provides for such a study fol-
lowed by a recommendation to
the Governor and the Agriculture
Department before the President
acts to declare a particular area
eligible for the emergency Fed
eral aid.
Surplus Feeds Offered.
Surplus feeds are to be made
available to farmers In such dis
aster areas on a subsidy basis.
County agents, county agricul-
tural sterilization committee
chairmer and county farmers
home administration supervisors
In each county will be asked to
furnish information on the fol-
lowing conditions in the next
week:
!. An estimate of pasture and
crop conditions as a per cent Of
normal.
2. Supply Of feed grain as a
per cent Of normal.
8. Any other information bear
ing on the extent and severity
Of the drought.
(. A recommendation as to
whether they feel conditions in
the county warrant its inclusion
as a drought disaster area.
The committee agreed that
present supplies Of hay have
averted any great distress in the
State, but added that conditions
may become serious next winter
and spring when hay supplies
now being used abnormally are
exhausted.
viewed as SpOtty.
DR.. Gwin said the drought sis
much more spotty than we
thought"
He described Southern Mary
land as in bad shape" and said
the hay and dairy feed situation
was bad in Kent and Frederick
Counties.
Bryan Humphrey of the Mary
land State Tobacco Authority
said If the drought continued it
could result in a S. million loss
to the early tobacco crop in
Southern Maryland.
1t was revealed that the COM
m1ttee's survey yesterday showed
that corn growers in wide areas
were sacrificing their green corn
product-stunted by lack Of rain
and converting 1t to ensilage
before maturity.
DR.. Gwin said the worst finan-
cial damage may be expected in
the dairy industry, where the
drastic pasture situation might
show up in a milk shortage.
Also meeting at the university
yesterday was the Agricultural
Sterilization and Conservation
COMMITTEES. which Mr.. Martin
heads. The committee will con-
duct an independent survey to
determine critical areas in the
State, Mr.. Martin said.
