Fairfax Supervisors
Reiieraie Opposition
To Airport at Burke

The proposed Burke Airport Is
still very much opposed by the
Fairfax Board of County Super
yisors, even though professional
planners employed by the county
recently recommended it as an
asset to progress and pros
perity.
The supervisors adopted new
resolution yesterday reiterating
their opposition to the location
OF q new national airport at
Burke-or anywhere else in the
county for that matter. Similar
resolutions have been adopted
three times previously by the
supervisors.
Just one week ago, the pro-
posed Burke Airport turned UP in
Fairfax County's proposed mas
ter plan for future development.
Francis Dodd McHugh, planning
consultant employed by the
county to prepare the master
plan, strongly recommended the
proposed airport location at
Burke. The master plan so far
has not been adopted, however.
Presented BY Howe.
The new resolution adopted by
the supervisors yesterday in OPP
position to the Burke Airport
was presented by Herbert H.
Howe, chairman of the Burke
Airport Relocation Committee,
and Circuit Judge Paul Brown,
a member of the same COM
mittee.
Judge Brown said publicity
about inclusion of the Burke
Airport in the master plan had
created the false impression in
some quarters that Fairfax
County heads might have
changed their minds about OPP
posing the airport.
Representative Broyhill has
told me he doesn't know how
far he can go in opposing Burke
if the board has changed its
mind" said Judge Brown.
The Judge told the supervisors
it was important to express new
opposition at this time because
of a study currently being made
by a special committee to recon-
mend where Washington's new
supplemental airport should go.
He referred to the committee
composed of Rowland r. Hughes,
director of the Bureau of the
Budget; Undersecretary of Com
merce Robert B. Murray, jr., and
Maj. Gen. Wiley D. Ganey, di-
rector of operations for the Air
Force.
One section of the resolution
offered by Judge Brown and Mr.,
Howe was deleted by the super
visors before they adopted it,
The deleted section called the
proposed airport detrimental
and practically ruinous to the
future development of the
county as a residential area.
This same language has been
used in previous resolutions
adopted by the supervisors in OPP
position to the airport, but Mrs,
Anne wilkins said she could not
go along with that wording now.
AS adopted, the resolution
stresses the loss of tax revenue
that would be suffered by the
county with the removal Of more
than $500 acres from private
ownership.
Copies of the resolution are
being sent to all of Virginia s
representatives in the Senate
and House and to members OF
the special Federal committee
studying the airport question.

Board Wants County
To Have Control Of
Recreation Ceniers

Montgomery County's Board
of Recreation believing it has
overlapping jurisdiction with the
Maryland National Capital Park
and Planning Commission, wants
operation of recreation centers
and Fairgrounds to be the sole
responsibility of the county.
4 think the planning COM
mission should get out Of the
operating business H. F..
BroWnheld, q board member.
said.
Lending a sympathetic ear, the
commissioners agreed last night
to ask the county's legislative
delegation what legislation is
needed to transfer the planning
commissions recreation author
ity to county administrators.
The county now must pay the
planning commission Is per
cent of the cost of maintenance
of recreation facilities in the
regional district.
In 1923, before the county
entered the recreation field. the
commission spent $149,l88 for
maintenance The 1854 budget
called for $780, 28, but the ac-
tual cost was S194,649. OF this
the county paid $l45,s87.
The 1954-5 budget sets the
county's share at $I84. 1852.
Board members considered the
jump in cost too great. Mrs.
Stella Werner, a commissioner,
said that the county could make
better use of the money.
The Recreation Board COM
planned that it had been unable
to get an adequate accounting
from the commission of the
money it had spent for mainte-
nance.
Members also complained they
have been unable to keep in
touch with community recreation
activities because the planning
commission retains the authority
to issue permits for park and
recreation facilities.

Herman Girl Friend
Acquitted in Bi|king
OF Wealthy Woman
BY the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. q
Mrs. Kathleen M. Nagler. one of
two principals in a love profiteer-
ing case, has been acquitted of
charges she participated in the
attempted theft of 100000
fortune from a Florida socialite.
The 38-year-old brunette was
freed late yesterday by Federal
Judge Sterling Hutchinson, who
upheld a defense claim the Gov
eminent had failed to prove its
case against Mrs. Nagler.
In July the Government had
obtained a conviction of the
first principal-Percy w. Her.
man, so. who made a habit of
counting wealthy women.
Herman, a native Of San
Francisco, was sentenced to eight
years in prison for illegally
transporting across State line
money and jewels belonging to
Mrs. Dyoll P. Ravens OF Palm
Beach, Fla. He was fined $4,000.
Herman and the 68-year-old
Mrs. Ravens had married in
March after a whirlwind court
Ship following their meeting over
a lighted cigarette at an auction
gallery. He deserted her at a
tourist court near F'redericks-
burg, Va, the day after the
wedding.
The Government produced wit
nesses at Mrs. Nagler's trial who
testified : she had lived with
Herman while he was wooing
Mrs. Ravens. Other witnesses
testified he rejoined her in New
York shortly after the desertion.
Defense attorneys conceded
the pair had lived together, but
argued this did not mean Mrs.
Nagler joined in any plot to gain
control of Mrs. Ravens fortune.
Mrs. Ravens had her marriage
to Herman annulled in June.

Dear Editors:
The national thanksgiving
season is not a great way off,

thanks to the Father above for
the guidance given, and the
blessings bestowed upon our
nation through the years. Ours
is highly favored land the
fields are fertile and the barns
are filled with an abundance
and America produces enough
food so that none should be
hungry.
However, in land SO rich and
overflowing with an abundance
- we have countless numbers of
citizens who do not have the
necessities of life This situation
becomes the concern of all of us
- the concern of the community,
the state, the nation.
AS worthy citizens it becomes
our duty to help channel the
surplus abundance down to those
about us who need their daily
bread for subsistence.
Furthermore in this rich
country we are daily made
aware of the countless number
of men out Of employment.
This situation becomes the
concern of all Of uS-a concern to
help create opportunity, so that
every self-respecting man can
live and provide for his family.
Every ambitious citizen pos
seSses the urge to be gainfully
employed. He does not want to
become a burden, liability to
his community, nor does he want

Cecil cautioned SenderS not 10
delay the mailing of parcels
until December on the assump-
ton that timely delivery will be
assured through the use of air
service. He explained that in
addition to a large volume of
Christmas mail, it is necessary
that medical and military sup
plies be given the highest prior
ity on available overseas airlift.
Parcels destined for delivery
in Japan, Korea and the islands
in the Pacific should be mailed
as early as possible, preferably
not later than Nov. | in view of
the distances involved.
Here are some important steps
to keep in mind when mailing
overseas packages as listed by
Postmaster Cecil.
SIZE AND WEICHT--Air par
eel post is limited in size to 80
inches in length and girth COM
bined and two pounds in weight
The maximum size and weight
limits for domestic surface par
eel post are applicable to Christ
mas parcels for the armed forces
except that limit not to exceed
so pounds applies in the case of
ordinary parcel post addressed to
specific APOs. A list of these
APOs can be obtained at the
post office.
Preparation -- Boxes for over
seas transmission must neces-
sarily be of strong construction
because of the great distances,
handling and storage they must
undergo. It is absolutely neces-
sary that all articles for over
seas delivery be packed in boxes
of metal, wood, solid fiberbroad
or strang double-faced corrugat-
ed fiberboard testing at least
275 pounds.
Each box should be securely
tied with strong cord, preferably
by four separate pieces, two
lengthWiSe and two crossWise,
knotted at crossing. Sealing the
flaps with gummed tape where
they meet strengthens the box,
but the use of such tape alone
is not satisfactory. Boxes should
also contain sufficient cushion
ing material SO the contents will
be tightly packed to prevent
any rattling or loosening of the
articles within the parcels. II
is also desirable that all fiber
board boxes be securely wrapped
by heavy paper which materially
strengthens the package.
Prohibited articles - in addi-
ton to the usual articles nor
mally prohibited in the mails,
matches Of all kinds and lighter
fluid may not be mailed to over
seas military addresses. Cigar
cites and other tobacco products
are prohibited in parcels ad-
dressed for delivery through
designated military post offices
and coffee may not be accepted
at other post offices, A list of
these military post offices is
available at the local post office.
Postage ~ The domestic RACES
of postage are applicable and
postage must be fully prepaid
Fourth-class matter sent by sur
face mail is subject to the zone
rate applicable from the post
office where mailed to the post
office in care of which the par
Gel is addressed.
Addressing -- Addresses must
be legible and prepared in type
writing or ink. 1t is preferable
that the outside addresses be
