Schools in Maryland
Need $50 Million
BY the A.seeiaied Press

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Dec. l6.-
Maryland county commissioners
were informed yesterday of a
$150-to-$200 million need for
schools in the next five years,
and bluntly told they will have
to raise 1t themselves.
Harry j. Green, chairman of
a State Study Commission on
Education, told the State Asso-
citation of County Commission
ers a 80 per cent increase in
school enrolment is anticipated
in the next five years. He add
ed, I'VE need 80 per cent addi-
tional ,claSsrooms."
THE squeeze is on. You county
commissioners are going to have
to levy the taxes and collect
them for new schools. The
people can't get at State and
Federal officials like they can get
at you. You county officials are
going to get it. but good!"
Seventy five commissioners
and other county officials were
in Mr.. Green's audience. Only
Worcester. Somerset. Dorchester
and Allegheny Counties were not
represented.
The commissioners elected j.
Thomas Kibler Of Kent County
as their new president and Ralph
Z. LoWman Of Anne Arundel vice
president. Edward r. Lonergan,
Anne Arundel County manager,
was reelected secretary-treas-
|urer.

Mayor Beverley attracted more
attention to his city than per-
haps any Of his predecessors in
Alexandria's long history through
his efforts to reclaim two old fire
engines. He succeeded in fast
talking Baltimore firemen out
of a 1854 hand pumper fire en-
CINE that George Washington had
given to Alexandria. The relic
is now on exhibit at Alexandria,s
Friendship Firehouse.
The Mayor has not been so
fortunate in his efforts to re-
trieve another old fire engine
from Hudson, N. Y, which
Mr.. Beverley claims Union troops

War. But his campaign to get
it back attracted national pub

Mr.. Beverley and other irate
citizens. Alexandria finally
adopted an ordinance requiring
planes to stay 1000 feet above
the city whenever possible, and
the sCAA adopted a new flight
pattern to shift planes around
Alexandria as much as possible.
Cousin of Byrd.
Like his famous cousin, SEN
ator Byrd, Democrat, Of Vir-
ginia, Mr.. Beverley has been a
campaigner for economy In gov
ernment and lower taxes. The
mayor in his parting statement
urged citizens to guard against
creeping taxes" and take an
active part in their local gov
ernments.
The mayor. had some parting
words of gratitude for the press,
who found so much to write
about during his time in office.
He said Alexandria was for
tunate to have. q diligent press
to tell the people what is going
on in their government.
The 43-year-old mayor made
it clear that his announcement
today should not be misinter-
preted as q complete retirement
from public life, and anyone
who knows him is sure he means
just that.

Alexandria's colorful Mayor.
Marshall j. Beverley, who won
publicity for his city by claiming
old fire engines and fighting low
flying airplanes. today announced
he would not be a candidate for
reelection.
The Mayor said he was step
ping out of political Office to de-
vote more time to his business
and his family. He Is vice pres
ident of the First and Citizens
National Bank in Alexandria.
In recent months, as the Janu-
ary 5th deadline for council
candidates approached, one OF
the most popular topics of con-
versation in Alexandria has been
speculation over the Mayors
plans.
He has been a frequent critic
Of City Manager Ira Willard, but
insisted he was not perturbed
that other councilmen would not
90 along with his suggestions or
with his pleas for Mr.. Wizards
resignation.
Blames Business Pressure.
Sincerely. 1t is only the pres
sure of business that causes me
to reach this decision" said the
mayor. In his prepared state
ment there was no mention of
animosity toward members of
council, who last July took the
mayor to task for his public
criticism of the city manager.
Mr.. Beverly became Mayor In
1852 by virtue of receiving the
largest number of votes In the
general Council election that
year. His successor viii be
chosen by the same method when
all seven Council seats are filed
in the general election next June.
Before becoming Mayor, he
had been elected twice before as
. member OF City Council, be-
ginning with an unexpired term
in 1948.
Theoretically, Alexandria has
o city manager form of govern
ment and the office of Mayor
serves principally to provide the
city with a ceremonial head and
. presiding officer at Council
meetings.
Outspoken Mayor.
But Mr.. Beverley was not one
to let the office fade into oblivion.
Always outspoken, he commented
on whatever he saw fit. when-
ever he thought it was necessary.
He always has been a diligent
foe OF secret Council sessions, in
sisting that the people of Alex
andria had a right to know
everything that went on at City
Hall.
Mayor Beverly's differences
with Mr.. Willard arose over the
latter's recommendation that
Alexandria needed an admins
trative survey. Mr.. Beverley Wig
orously resisted the survey, cali
ing 1t q waste of some SAC, 900.

School Board 10 Tell
Alexandra Council
OF Space Crisis

The Alexandria School Board
last night decided to seek an
early meeting with the school
committee of the City Council
to discuss construction Of addi-
tional facilities to meet the city's
ever-growing elementary school
population.
School Supt. It. c. Williams
told board members accommoda-
ton of children is getting to be
a critical problem.
Mr.. Williams said classes now
are meeting in Easements and
rooms designed originally for
shop, home economics and music
rooms. This situation is expect
ed to become worse during the
next semester, when, he said,
f1ve or six more such rooms will
have to be used to meet swelling
enrolment.
Addition Ready In Fall.
Completion of the Cora Kelly
School in time for the opening
of school next fall will add 20
school rooms to the elementary
system, Mr.. Williams noted, but
will not meet an increase of
1000 students he anticipates the
city will get.
Development along Duke
street, In the area between the
Patrick Henry School and the
Brookville development and
along Janney's lane, are likely
to make those areas the most
seriously In need of added facili-
ties, he said.
To meet the situation, he said.
II classrooms could be added to
the school system through addi-
tions to the Patrick Henry School
of six rooms, the Minnie How
ard School of five rooms and the
Macarthur School of six rooms
for a total cost of $4,000.
Less Costly.
A similar number OF school
rooms In q new building would
cost the city about $50, 900, Mr..
Williams said. Two other adj
vantages he pointed out are that
architects indicate such addi-
tions could be made, ready for
use by next fall, whereas new
construction would not be avail
able for use before the fall Of
1855. Also these rooms In the
additions would be In the areas
where they are most needed at
this time.
School Board members also
noted that the additions would
make it unnecessary to hire a
new principal and custodial
staff, and would thus lessen
added operating costs.
The other alternative to O
new building. Mr.. Williams
pointed out, Is increased trans
portation of children around
between schools.

Seabrook Area

Industrial Zone
Commissioners Delu,
PIeu to Rezone Three
Smith Ave. Tracts

A delegation Of about 20 resi-
dents of the Seabrook area of
Prince Georges County yester-
day defeated a request for re-
zoning of three properties on
Smith avenue from commercial
to industrial.
The group was represented by
Carl A. Brozyna of the Sea-
brook Civic Association, who
said the proposed change In
coming would destroy the value
of residential property In the
area. He said residents had
purchased lots with restrictions
and covenants which protected
their properties and they were
led to believe that the area
would remain only for resi-
Dental purposes.
The request for rezoning was
brought by Thomas F. HALEY,
who said through his attorney,
John F. Lillard. ST., that the
three tracts, each listed in
separate petitions, had been
planned for industrial purposes
by the National Capital Park
and Planning Commission.
Near Tracks.
c. Warren Giauque, repre-
senting the commission, in
dorsed the proposal, stating that
the properties were near a rail-
road track and were unsuited
for residences.
MIR. Brozyna said, however, the
Industrial zone of the area should
be kept east of Seabrook road.
The Board of Sounty Commits
sioners agreed that change in
coming would destroy the value
of the area for residential pur-
poses and unanimously denied
the request.
Eight petitions were approved
by the board, four were denied
and one was continued until
some time in January. pending
a Reimbursement.
Approved Petitions.
Rezoning petitions approved
were:
