RICHMOND, Feb. Dele
gate Armistead Boothe today at
tempted to capture for his home
city of Alexandria some $4,000
in school construction funds by
one of the strangest gimmicks
ever proposed to the General
Assembly.
He set heads wagging and
lifted eyebrows up a bit when he
offered an amendment to the
budget bill of the 1852 session.
Such strategy has never been
tried within memory of older
heads in the Legislature. They
consider that, after they fight
their way through a 60-day ses-
sion and wreStle with a multi
tude of assaults made in the
form of amendments to a
budget. their work is done for
two years. AS a matter of fact,
they have a TAB million budget
on their hands, left by former
Gov. Battle, right now.
Mr.. Boothe's seemingly unor-
thodox proposal. however. merely
seeks to amend a law now in
effect. The budget adopted at
the 1852 session came into being
on July l Of that year and does
not expire until next June 30.
In that budget, SIS million was
set up for each fiscal year Of the

6OO,OOOLbs. of ButterPHe Up
In Government sNeorbyHoard

If there are any butter-hungry
Washington housewives. who
have been buying a substitute
for that expensive dairy commod-
ity to keep the family budget
in balance, it may be little
comfort to know there is plenty
of butter on hand.
In fact, there are some 100000
pounds idling away in a ware
house just outside the District.
But it is owned by the Govern
ment and can be used only to
help feed school children or
our foreign neighborS.
The butter that has been
tucked away in a room kept at
10 degrees below zero is in the
Merchants Terminal Corp. ware
house in Landover. Md. 1t has
been accommodating there since
last July and August, when it
was shipped in from Wisconsin.
1t is good grade butter. too.
Nothing but the best. 1t would
cost around 70 cents a pound
at the local chain grocery store,
It cost the Government about
66 cents a pound.
While there is enough butter
in storage at Landover to more
than fill every butter plate in
Washington, it represents only

DeIIa's Resolution Asks
Action at Peace Cross
BY q steff Correspondent, Of The Ssor

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 4. A
powerful Maryland Democrat
got into the Peace Cross act
yesterday.
Senate President George w.
Della introduced a resolution
urging State and Prince Georges
County agencies and Mary
lands Representatives and Sem
ators ito redouble and further
their efforts in order to quickly
remove the threat of these I'M
healthy and unsafe conditions"
resulting from frequent flood
ing of the Peace Cross area at
Bladensburg.
Mr.. Della, who lives in Balti-
more. asked that copies of the
resolution be sent to the Wash
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission, the State Roads Com
mission, the Maryland National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission and the Prince Georges
County commissioners.
All of these bodies are now
Republican-controlled and are
obligated by State law to spend
$4,250,000 on Anacostia River
flood control. if Congress APP
propriateS 81 million to the Army
Engineers to guide the project.

His wife, Mrs. Virginia Bowen
Darr, is teacher at the Centre
vile Elementary School. and
their daughter Pamela is a pupil
there. commemorative Attorney
Hugh Marsh advised the super
viSorS that Mrs. Darr's position
as a teacher did not bar her
husbands appointment to the
school board, since she held the
teaching assignment previously.
The supervisors made two
other appointments yesterday.
Thomas S. Gray of Sleepy Hol-
low was appointed to the plan
ming commission on motion of
Mrs. Anne Wilkins. He succeeds
G. Hubbard Massey. whose resig-
nation was accepted yesterday.
Miss Edith Rodgers was reap

Boothe StortIes Legislators
With Bill to Recopture Funds

biennium for the so-called Battle
school construction fund.
When the first SIS million was
distributed, Alexandria received
all it was entitled to. But when
the second fiscal year rolled
around, the State Board of Edu-
cation held up the share of funds
the city would be entitled to by
reason of the number of children
attending school from territory
annexed from Fairfax County.
An annexation suit then was
pending before the Supreme
Court of Appeals. The high court
subsequently affirmed the city's
right to the county territory.
However, the formula under
which the SIS million was dis
tributed had, as one factor, the
average daily attendance of
pupils in school as of December
/, 1851. Since the pupils in the
territory later annexed were in
Fairfax County on December /,
1851, there was no apparent way
by which the city could receive
money for educating them after
they were taken in by Alexan-
dria.
Mr.. Boothe said he brought
the problem to former Gov. Bat
tie who suggested that legislation
at the 1854 session would be the
only means of providing an
equitable solution.

To Improve Sanitation
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Feb. 4.-The
State Board of Health announced
yesterday that three suppliers OF
water in Maryland have been
ordered to take steps to meet
State sanitation requirements
within 80 days.
The firm of Hopkins & Way
son was ordered to obtain
chlorinating equipment for its
plants which supply water to the
residents Of the Gwynn Park
subdivision and Morningside
near Washington.
The order was served on
Morgan w. Wayson, the State
Board said. The water comes
from wells and has not been
chlorinated. the Health Depart
ment said.
The MechanicStown Water Co
was told the water it serves to
Thurmont area residents is not
"of satisfactory sanitary quality
due to incompetent supervision
or inefficient operation"
It was ordered to secure re-
suits" in line with State santa
ton requirements within 30 days

New Offer Is Made
To Export Surplus
Butter 10 Russia

A second application to ship
surplus butter to Russia has
been received by the Commerce
Department. but is much small
er" than an earlier request for
10000 tons, an informed source
said today.
There was no indication of
the price offered in the new
proposal for butter held in stor-
age by the Commodity Credit
Corp. for the Agriculture Depart
ment. The butter would go to
Russia if the Commerce Depart
ment approves. That depart
ment licenses trade in strategic
items and all trade with Iron
Curtain countries.
Sought to Ship Oil.
An application for permission
to buy 10000 tons of surplus
butter from CCC stocks came
some time ago from Dwayne
Andreas, a Minnesota soybean
miller. Mr.. Andreas also applied
for permission to export 5000
tons of Government-owned sur
plus cottonseed oil to Commu-
mist Czechoslovakia. A depart
ment spokesman said no deci-
sion has yet been made on that
application.
Apparently price stopped the
Andreas butter-for-R Russia deal.
Secretary of Commerce Weeks
said in mid-January he would
not approve any application to
buy Government butter for Rus
STA "at considerably lower prices
than those paid by the American
housewife" Subsequently, the
ommerce Department an
nounced that Mr.. Andreas' ap-
plication had been turned down.
Price Level Up to Benson.
Mr.. Andreas was said to have
offered about the world market
price. which is near so cents a
pound. The Government buys
butter at about sc cents and
housewives here pay about 80.
President Eisenhower was
asked at his news conference
yesterday whether there are
plans to lower the level at which
the Government supports butter
prices. Secretary of Agriculture
Benson must decide on the ques-
ton before April /.
Gen. Eisenhower said he knows
Of no decision yet, but he added
that butter can't be priced out
of the market and still get used.
Something has to be done, he
said.
