Plan 10 Enlarge
Sanitary Unit
SET for House
Democrats Agree
And Move to Offer
Bill in Maryland
By Gene Goodwin
Sfes SscSf cov,s.ncnd.n, /.

ANNAPOLIS, Jan. 20.-A bill
increasing the Washington SUBJ
urban Sanitary Commission from
three to six members. but ousting
at least one of the present Re-
publican commissioners, was
being prepared today for intro
duction in the Maryland Legis-
lature.
The new Democratic legis-
lators from Montgomery and
Prince Georges Counties agreed
on the terms Of the measure in
a Joint meeting here yesterday.
They hope to introduce it in the
House of Delegates tomorrow.
The bill would require the
Governor to appoint the six
members of the sanitary COM
mission for four-year terms but
would allow him a free selection
on only two members. One Of
the Governors appointees would
have to reside in the Prince.
Georges section of the sanitary
district: the other would have to
come from the Montgomery side.
The other four members would.
in effect, be named, two apiece,
by the Prince Georges County
commissioners and the Mont
gomery County Council. The
Governor would make the actual
appointment but would be re-
quired to name whoever was
nominated by the two local
governing bodies.
Emergency Clause.
The bill carries an emergency
clause, making 1t effective as
soon as it is enacted and signed
by the Governor.
Since Democrats control the
Prince Georges Board of COM
missioners and the Montgomery
Council, it can be presumed that
the four locally appointed sani-
tary commissioners would be
Democrats.
Gov. McKeldin is Republican.
Since he would have only two
appointments to the new COM
mission, at least one of three
present commissioners; all Re-
publican, would be ousted.
The present commissioners
L. S. tTed) Ray, Raymond w.
Bellamy and j. Norman Ager-
were appointed by the Governor
in 1851 to six-year terms. which
have two more years to run un-
der existing law.
The bill makes no provision
for minority representation.
It would provide for a total of
$23. 400 in annual salaries to the
six commissioners, compared to
the total Of $4,000 paid to the
three present commissioners.
proposed Salaries.
The chairman of the proposed
commission would receive $4,000
q year. the vice chairman 1900
and the other four members
$500 apiece. The commission
would name its own chairman
and vice chairman, with the
stipulation that both could not
be from the same county.
Under the present commission
setup, Mr.. Ray, the Montgomery
County member who is desig-
mated as ''full-time," is paid
$1,000 a year. Mr.. Bellamy, the
chairman. receives $4,000, and
Mr.. Ager $4,000. They are the
Prince Georges members of the
commission and are designated
as 'part.time commissioners"
Another major change in the
bill is a provision for a separate
secretary and treasurer to be ap-
pointed by the commission.
Those responsibilities are COM
bined into one position under the
.araeavtf N0V.ayxateeta,.

Fairfax Offers
Two Juvenile
Detention Plans
Supervisors to Ask
State to Approve
Emergency Quarters

Fairfax County hopes tenn
porarily to solve the problem Of
OBTAINING juvenile delinquents
by using two rooms In the base
mnt Of the new Jail. or quarters
IN the old Jail building.
The Board of County Super
visors yesterday. on recommen-
dation of Commemorative At
torney Robert Fitzgerald. agreed
to seek State approval Of the two
proposals. The State Depart
ment Of Welfare and Institutions
must pass on detention facilities
before they can be used for
juveniles.
Mr.. Fitzgerald said either ar
rangement would give the county
some place to put juveniles In an
emergency when the Arlington
Juvenile Shelter cannot accom-
modate them. He emphasized
that he was recommending the
plan only as temporary expedi-
ency until something is done
about construction of q regional
juvenile detention facility In
Northern Virginia.
Fairfax County used to place
Juvenile delinquents in the
Groveton lookup. but It iiscon-
tmued that after It was dis
closed that some youngsters
stayed there a month or more
waiting for removal to State
training institutions.
Extra Matron Needed.
Mr.. Fitzgerald said use of the
two rooms in the new Jail base-
ment. or quarters in the old jail
building-which currently are
being used for offices--would
necessitate the employment Of
one or two matrons. He said
the Arlington Juvenile Shelter
should be used as much as pos
sible by the county, but declared
that was not always possible.
Earlier this week a 16-year-old
boy had to be placed in the Fair.
fax Jail because he was an epi-
leptic and the Arlington Juye.
nile Shelter felt it was not
equipped to care for him. On
other occasions police have had
trouble getting the necessary
commitment papers to place
youngsters in the Arlington
shelter in the middle Of the
night.
The supervisors adopted q new
job classification and pay scale
for the county's $50 employees.
The plan. prepared by consul
tant James o. Yarger. grants
an overall average pay increase
Of 4.6 per cent and classifles
each county position. Each Job
classification is divided into six
grades for purposes Of in-grade
raises. This is the first time
the county has had a job classi-
fication system. Cost Of putting
the plan into effect Is $77.000,
7S-Acre Tract Rezoned.
A 78-acre tract on Mount ver-
non boulevard just east Of Little
Hunting Greek was rezoned from
rural to suburban residential by
a 5-to-l vote. The change would
permit the developers to reduce
lot sizes from half acre each
to 10000 square feet. Applicants
were Vaughan B. Connolly,
owner. and Edward Sweeny, de.
veloper.
An application for suburban
coming Of a 4S-acre tract on
Springfield road north OF old
Braddock road was denied. The
applicant was Gertrude q. Wills.
The supervisors agreed to have
a new census taken this year by
the Federal Bureau of the Cen.
sus. The school board had to
have a census taken Of school
children this year. and the
supervisors decided to expand 1t
into an overall count of county
population. The school board Is
putting up $4,000 and the
supervisors are paying the re-
naming $l0.600. Work is ex.
