Fdirfox Master Plan

It was with considerable dis
may and surprise that I read
your news item on page one
of The Sunday Star of April
"a, on the proposed Fairfax
County master plan. I have
always. as have most other
people, regarded The Star as
being factual and we'll in
formed in all phases of its re-
porting, but your news item on
the Fairfax County proposed
master plan indicated a lack
of knowledge of the facts and
circumstances surrounding the
proposed plan and the effect
the plan would have.
The way I interpreted your
news item, and the only way
I can see that It could be in
terpreted, is that you were
being critical OF the Fairfax
County supervisors for not
adopting the plan after hav-
ing spent $160.000 for the
plan. You were also critical
of the Fairfax County super
visorS for their treatment of
rezoning requests which were
contrary to the proposed plan.
Please permit me to give you
a few facts concerning this
plan, with the hope that you
will be able to give this matter
further and more proper treat
ment in your paper:
own land near Vale in
Fairfax County, Va, which I
purchased over 20 years as an
investment. This particular
land Is in the area which the
master plan would consider to
be three to five acre mini
mum-lot size.
For your further informa-
ton, there is considerable. land
in Fairfax County which, in
all likelihood, would not pass
percolation tests for septic
fields and, Of course, no sewer
is available at this time. How
ever, mine has been tested for
percolation and a permit to in
stall a septic tank has been
granted.
1t seems apparent to me that
no one is going to buy land and
furnish that land with water
and sewer facilities when they
can only build one house for
every three to five acres. It is
economically unfeasible. So.
the net result if this master
plan were adopted would
amount to confiscation OF my
land.
must impress upon you that
there are many more people in
even worse circumstances than
I. Many people who. have
owned land longer than I and
farmed it, will never be able to
realize full value from it under
the proposed master plan, and
none of us can be classified as
land spectators.
Rather than criticize the
supervisors of Fairfax County
for their action on the Nc
Hugh plan. it appears to me
that you should commend
them for their courage in re-
fusing to recognize a plan that
Is completely impractical and
imperative. J. T. Kingsley.

THE
FARMERS WIFE
BY GRACE LuEBKE

Well, it locks as though the work
on the farm is in full swing now.
81 suppose most of you farmers
have yeur oats sown by now, II
you were going to sow any (and |
don't mean wild oatS) Bill and
Tom finished with ours the Satur-
day before Easter, and it's the
most oats they've sown for several
years. | imagine this situation is
common on a lot of Farms, now
that there's a restriction on wheat
acreage, farmers must sow oats if
they want to seed their fields to
legumes for hay or pasture. Ac-
cording to the latest issue of "Ohio
Farm and Home Research" spring
sown grains, such as oats, are
usually safer companion crops than
winter grains for meadow seedlings.
In wheat the seedlings must com
pete right from the start with an
established crop, whereas those
sown with spring oats can start
along with the grain. In various
tests that were conducted, i was
also shown that while it didn't
make too much difference on the
stand of alfalfa as to whether its
sown early Or late in the spring,
it did make a big difference on
red clover, that much better stands
resulted from early sowings, in
other words it should be soWn as
early in the spring as the ground
can be worked.
To get back to the matter of
seeding oats, neighbor of ours
very seldom, il ever, has followed
this practice. If he has particular
field that he wants seeded, he will
sow oats in that field in the spring,
after the oats is harvested he gets !
the ground ready for wheat, sows
it in the fall and the following
spring seeds the wheat.
AS farm people are well aware,
the overhead in this business of
farming seems to be getting worse. i,
Just to give you an example = We
have an 11-acre field that Bill
wanted to sow to oats and seed to
legumes for hay and pasture next
year. He bought certified Clinton
SO seed oats for $4,000. He also
sowed mixture of certified al
falfa seed, bronze grass, birdsfoot
trefoil and timothy, costing about
$4,000. Since he needed to ferti-
lize it also, he put little over a
ton of 0-24-24 analysis fertilizer
on the field, which cost approxi-
mately one hundred dollars. There
was also the added expense of fit
ting the ground with the tractor.
This is only one of the fields, too.
(The others he seeded to red clov-
err This is just an example, and

Plastic shower curtains that have

and water, can be made like new
by first soaking them in a solution
of warm water and vinegar, then
rinsing them in clear water. This

we're not big farmers, either. just
think of the expense those men
must have who plan on seeding a
hundred acres! He really must
have huge capital to finance his
seedlings alone, not allowing for
other expenses in the spring. How
ever, seeding soil to legumeS is an
absolute must as far as soil con-
servation is concerned, and any
conscientious farmer who is aware
of his responsibility in caring for
the soil will follow this practice.
Incidentally, if you've finished
with the seeding and can't for the
life of you figure out how you're
going to get the rest of the clover
seed out of the box on the drill,
maybe you'd like to try this
method - Tom came in the house
little while ago and requested
the use of my vacuum cleaner. He
used the attachment that you use
to get down into cracks and crev-
ices, the long slender nozzle. 1t
worked beautifully, he got every
last little clover seed.
Today's Bit Of Nonsense
A Manhattan housewife wanted
maid for a small flat and went
to an employment agency to make
known her requirements. Next day
an applicant was at her door. She
was a girl newly arrived from Fin
land.
Here" thought the housewife,
gazing on the innocent counten-
ance, "is a fresh, unspoiled crea-
ture - exactly what / want"
But in answer to each question
"Can you cook? Can you scrub
floors? Can you wait on table? Can
you sew" - there came an en-
phatic shake of the head and an
emphatic "No!"
"Then what can you do?"
A broad grin crossed the Fin
nish girls face and, in a tone of
pride and triumph, she said, Il can
milk reindeer"

U. 5. Judge 0uashes
81 Million Libel Suit
Against Sunpapers
BY The Associated Press

BALTIMORE. Feb. 17.-Fed-
eral Judge William c. Coleman
has thrown out Of court a mil
lion-dollar libel suit brought by
Lawrence Westbrook and Heinz
Pulverman against the SUM
papers
Mr.. Westbrook formerly vas
connected with the Democratic
National Committee. He and
Mr.. Pulverman have similar suits
pending against newspapers in
several other cities. The one
here was. the first to advance to
the hearing stage.
Judge Coleman's action came
on motion by the A. s.. Abel
Co. publisher Of the sunpapers.
for a summary Judgment with
out trial.
He ruled there was no abuse
of the qualified privilege" which
the newspaper had to report and
print information contained in
the disputed article.
Mr.. Westbrook and MFR. Pull
verman had asked damages be-
cause Of an Associated Press
dispatch based on a copyrighted
story in the New York Herald
Tribune. It dealt with the ac-
tivities Of Mr.. Westbrook and
Mr.. Pulverman as representa-
tives Of a foreign metal concern
in contracts with the United
States Government. The story
originated in the 1852 political
campaign and included quotes
from President Eisenhower at
the time he was a candidate.
Judge Coleman's decision
hinged also on technical court
procedures. The defense asked
Mr.. ,Westbrook and Mr.. Pulver-
man to make certain admissions
of fact as q prelude to the trial.
The plaintiffs did not answer
the demand for admissions
within the time limit. Judge
Coleman then ruled the facts
must be accepted as true, since
the plaintiffs did not contract
or deny them.
The Sunpapers moved for q
summary judgment on grounds
the news story was a fair ac-
count of the admitted facts.
The plaintiffs contended they
still were entitled to damages
because the story had been
printed with malice. Judge Cole
man ruled the fact the Sunpa-
pers favored the election of Gen.
Eisenhower did not show malice
against the defendants.
