caustic remarks about housing

recommendation that no further
housing be provided for Korea
in view of the present uneasy
situation there and the fact that

Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor. who
was Far East commander until
he became Army Chief of Staff
last August, requested reconsid-
Grafton Of the proposal.
Investigation Ordered
But after Mr.. Bruckner in
Korea on Thursday described
the housing provided soldiers
guarding the armistice zone
as "deplorable," Undersecretary
Charles c. Finucane ordered fur
ther investigation.
Mr.. Brucker, now on Far
East inspection trip, found some
of the men sleeping in tents and
asserted:
Somebody has been too COM

Providing such housing is the

When that happens, look oIt
for Fairfax. 1t already is ru-

county in the country-and with

Such rapid growth keeps
county officials dizzy trying to
keep up with how many peo pie

Population Is Estimated
In 1910, the official county
population was a few hundred
shy of 100000. The unofficial

An important service added
in the county last year is trash

available throughout the urban

One problem that draws the

county can't do anything about
is roads.
