Again Reject
Shopping Center
At White Oak

The County Council this week
turned down an application for
commercial zoning of a three
acre tract at White Oak by the
Hydena Corp.
The Council denied the shop
ping center site on grounds that
it would create "spot zoning" by
permitting a commercial use in
a single family residential zone
and that there is no current
need for additional commercial
zoning in the area.
The thrice rejected shopping
center application this time had
the approval of the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission.
However h commissions

BroadWoOd Manor owes a vote
of thanks to the TWinbrook Citi-
zens Association for inviting us to
join their swimming pool associa-
ton. We hope that many of our
families will take advantage of
this opportunity of belonging to a
community pool so convenient to
our homes.
The committees for the pool are
working diligently to iron out all
the details. We will let you know
exactly whom to contact when the
signing up" stage arrives.
Two of our BroadWood neigh.
bors are lending their talents to
this project: Mrs. Meredith P.
Davidson is serving on the Rules
Committee. and Gordon w. Rudd
is applying his engineering skill
as a member of the Engineering
Committee.
Spring fever is rife on these
summer-like spring days, and day
dreaming of summer recreation is
one tell-tale symptom of this NAL
ady.
Many other people are working
toward our recreation needs for
this summer. Latest news on our
Calvin Recreation Area is that the
grading on the area to be used
for basketball Volleyball, etc, has
been finished by the town. The
next step will be sodding.
Mrs. Rudd reports that she has
ordered a 30' six-swing set and
Senior Castle Tower - a really
super-duper type of jungle gym.
Even our Citizens Association
has spring fever-or at least a
symptom of it! What is the topic
for the next meeting? Recreation,
of course! The speaker? Ralph
Williams, chairman of the Recrea-
ton Committee for our City. Mr..
Williams will speak on phases of
recreation pertinent to the Silver

to attempt to move various kinds
of meat on a competitive price
basis. This may be in line with the
supply of one particular kind and
far out of line with the supply of
another.
For instance, in the past winter
there has been a general tendency
to move pork on a comparable
price basis with beef. Consequent
ly, the demand for beef was main
tained, but the demand for pork
was lowered considerably. Supply
built up and live hog prices had to
be lowered.
Frequently the retailer is not in
terested in moving an increased
volume and he wants to avoid
changes as much as possible. With
a constant demand, the consumer
will continue to absorb a steady
supply of meat. Thus, any major
problem of moving an increased
quantity or possible surplus into
consumption is not aiiZe d by
either the retailer or the consumer.
Consequently both the live stock
producer and the consumer are
penaliZed by the arbitrary action
of retail butchers, asserts the mag
aZine.

Texas Leader Urges Rural Women
To Prepare Against Disaster

vey In your county under the sp0n-
sorship of a local organization such
as rural electrification, home DEM
onstration club, parent-teacher as
sociation, or other groups.
Mrs. Martin said that both civil
defense and Red Cross organiza-
tions can teach mass-cooking for
large numbers in an emergency.
She said home demonstration
agents can train groups to do bulk
canning, freezing, brining and dry
ing foods 80 that perishables can
be processed on farms in case
markets are knocked out"
Mrs. Martin predicted enemy at
tack might require farm women
to do chores, such as milking of
cows, now performed by electri.
cally driven equipment.
She urged that women learn to
purify water at home, by adding
chlorine, iodine, or by boiling, and
that women be particularly alert
to the dangers in biological war
fare.
Your county agricultural a.
gent can teach you what to look
for and what warning symptoms TO
report" she said of biological at
tack.
These are some of the things she
said rural women must be pre-
pared for if an attack comes:
Assure a food supply for the ma
tion, guard against disease among
livestock, maintain basic self-pro-
lection systems against fire, stay
ready to receive the injured and
homeless from the cities; and as
sist stricken areas through blood
donation, services and loans of e.
quipment such as trucks. two-way
radios, bulldozers, portable lighta.
and power systems.

A Texas woman defense expert
today urged rural women to boil
ster national preparedness by
making their homes safe, training
families to face disasters, and by
finding jobs in county civil defense
programs.
Mrs. Grace NJ. Martin, Texas
Coordinator of Women's Activities
in Civil Defense and Disaster Re-
lief, said in an article prepared for
the May issue of Better Farming
that women can stimulate civil de-
fense preparations by working
through such groups as local civil
defense, home demonstration clubs,
and parent-teacher associations.
In the message to 21,000 rural
women's organizations she wrote !:
while those living in rural
areas are not likely to be hit by
atomic or hydrogen weapons, they
are vulnerable to radioactive fall
out and to fire and natural disas-
ters such as tornadoes, floods, and
hurricanes"
She urged that rural women or
ganize to learn the effects of nu-
clear, chemical, and biological war
fare; to teach their families self
protection measures to prepare
them against enemy attacks, acci-
dental bombings and natural di-
sasters; and to study first-aid
home nursing, fire prevention and
control.
Mrs. Martin pointed out that
rural homes may be asked to re-
ceive evacuees from the cities il
war comes. She said:
Prepare now by surveying your
home and outbuildings to determ-
inc how many you can accommo-
date in an emergency. Local well
fare services will need information
IF there is no civil defense in
your area, encourage such sur.

The all-time record year Of
1850 saw total production Of
100000 units, Of which about
$4,000 were public units. In
eluded among the total were
10000 apartment units, in con-
trast to fewer than 100000
apartment units started this
year.
A comparison between this
years production in the first
seven months, and that in the
corresponding period last year
shows a considerably greater
number Of units started in the
Northeast part of the country
this year than last. The North
east total for the first seven
months of 1855 amounted to
169. 800 units, in contrast to last
years 100000 units.
Total production last year
amounted to 1920. 400 units, Of
which 1,201,700 were privately

pursued long before Mr.. Eisen-
hower's illness.
Whether these extraordinary
precautions to throw a veil Of
secrecy around the renovation
project have led to the very
thing they sought to avoid Is a
debatable question. The public
generally considers the presi-
dency a matter of the keenest le-
gitimate interest. The fact that,
in addition, Mr.. and Mrs. Eisen-
hover appear to the public to
be SO human and folksy has led
to a more than usually affection
ate regard for them and an in
terest in how and where they
live.
This public interest can be said
to be one of the occupational
hazards Of the presidency. Its
intenser forms are among the
penalties for being so popular
as are the Eisenhowers. In pc
riods Of crisis or Of public con-
cern 1t is not at all unusual in
democracies for people to gather

that's the reason they like it

But now that the Eisenhowers
are in residence for what is likely

public interest in the house can

Curiosity shot up quickly even
