Development Of little Fairfax,
Va. into the busy hub of a met
ropolitan community with 80 1000
residents is proposed in a master
plan drawn for the town by
Francis Dodd McHugh, planning
consultant.
The special census just COM
pleted shows the towns current
population is 5,023. Mr. Nc
Hugh's plan anticipates 11.7o0
residents within the town bound
aries by 1880. and a total of
10000 people living in the area.
A 76-acre shopping center is
recommended right in the heart
of the town where only a few
scattered stores now stand. New
parkways and loop streets are
planned to carry traffic from
busy Routes 1913. 236 and 237
around or swiftly through the
business district.
The existing five acres used
for county government purposes
needs to be quadrupled by 1880.
according to the McHugh plan,
as the county government ex-
pands to meet the increasing
needs of a growing population.
Fits In With County Plan
Preparation of a master plan
for the town of Fairfax was
authorized by the Board of
County Supervisors at the towns
request after Mr.. McHugh COM
pleted drafting a proposed mas
ter plan for the county. The
recommended town plan fits in
with the proposed county plan.
Adoption of a master plan for
the town, however, is up to the
town planning commission and
council and is not subject to
action by county officials.
The McHugh town plan rep

resents a complete departure
from existing zoning trends in
the town. The small central
business district now is sur
rounded with large homes rep
resenting the lowest population
density type of development. Al
ternate plans-one continuing
the present trend and the other
rejecting the plan now proposed
first were submitted in prelim-
mary form to the town planning
commission. The town authori-
ties instructed MI. McHugh to
proceed with a plan placing the
main business section in the CEN
ter of town, surrounded by
higher density dwellings.
A large belt of apartments
clrcling north and west Of the
main business center are pro-
posed. The apartment belt takes
in part of the Willard Tract, now
about to be developed.
Roadside business is set up
all along Lee boulevard where it
cuts through the north end of
town. Much of it already is ex-
istlng; including the many hotels
in that section.
3 Major Parkways
Three new major parkways
are included in the plan. One
follows a stream bed through
the Willard tract, circling north
of the proposed business center.
Another circles through the
south end Of town just south of
the business center, and a third
stretches between Lee boulevard
and Route 1913 near the center
of town. A 160-foot right of
way is recommended for the
parkWayS.
An eight-block loop street 100
feet wide is recommended to
circulate traffic through the

orally follows North, South, East
and West streets as they now
are laid out in the town. The
plan also proposes series of
new 80-foot collector streets.
joining the primary highways
and parkwayS.
The radical change in town
development anticipated by the
plan is reflected in a comparison
of existing land uses with Mr..
McHugh's proposals for the
future.
Acreage Breakdown
According to the planners stu
dies. the towns 1,620.9 acres now
are used as follows: Residences,
sos 81 acres: 500 acres are va
cant; 1850 acres are used for
agriculture; 130.31 acres are used
fol streets; 48:18 acres are COM
mercial, and 69.11 acres are used
for various public and semi
public purposes.
The proposed master plan con-
templates that land will be used
as follows: Residences, 855.0l
acres: business and commercial,
148 40 acres (including the To-
acre central shopping district,
plus SO acres for roadside busi-
ness and 81 acres for neighbour
hood stores); streets and high
ways, 430.16 acres, and public
uses, 1873 acres.
The plan finds that one OF the
towns big needs in public uses
is for small parks and additional
playground space. No new school
sites are believed necessary in
the town proper, provided chill
dren from outside the town are
accommodated in other schools
eventually.
Much of the land recon-
mended for commercial use
would be reserved for parking.
The plan proposes a ratio of 8
acres of parking for each 2 acres
Of commercial buildings.

Mr.. Fink was especially

QUESTION: Why is this con-
sidered to be an important honor?
ANSWER: According to the
Talmud the custom of calling up
persons in a certain order was in
stituted so as to preserve the
peace and decorum of the syna-
gogue and to prevent feelings of
envy and hostility. In this way the
Talmud Babli, Gitin, 60) tells that
a Kohen, who was a descendant of
Aaron is thus called first; a Levi,
who is descendant of the tribe of
Levi, is called second. After these
two types of people are called the
most scholarly in the group such
as the rabbi, etc. Since the third
honor went to the most scholarly
it became a cherished honor at
times where there was no rabbi
present or the rabbi was not called
upon for some reason.
QUESTION: Why are peniten-
tial prayers omitted from the
liturgy during the month Of
Nissan?
ANSWER: Nissan is the month
Of the Passover, the month in
which the redemption from Egypt
took place. It's coming thus depicts
a happy spirit and penitential
prayers are omitted. Also, the
tabernacle in the desert was dedi-
Gated in the first few weeks OF
this month by having another
tribal head bring the sacrifices OF
hiAtribe during a series of special
DAYS. Thus, while the first two
weeks went by as anniversaries OF
the dedication of the sanctuary
and the third week went by as
the week of Passover, it meant
that the majority of the days OF
this month were days of celebra-
ton.
