First Round Winner
IN Billboard Fight
10 Be Decided Today
By Gene Goodwin
siur SieH Correspondent

& ANNAPOLIS. Feb. 16.-The
House judiciary Committee was
expected today to decide the first
round winner in the 1855 version
Of the roadside control fight
often called the battle between
the hillboards and the garden
clubs.
The committee listened to
about three hours of testimony
on the controversial bill during
q hearing attended by about 200
persons here yesterday.
Lined up in favor of the meas
ure giving the State Roads Com
mission power to control the use
Of land rs feet on both sides of
more heavily travelled Maryland
highways were spokesmen for
the automobile associations and
the Federated Garden Clubs OF
Maryland.
Opposition to- the bill was led
BY spokesmen for billboard ad-
vertisers, farmers and. motel
owners.
Mrs. LawIor Opposes.
Mrs. Kathryn j. Lawlor, for
n1er Republican, member of the
House from Montgomery Coun-
~. who is now representing the
Outdoor Advertising Association
Of Maryland. argued that If the
State wants to regulate the use
M roadside land it should buy
1t.
She said she would challenge
the bill in court II 1t should pass
the Legislature.
Probably the most persuasive
arguments for the principle Of
roadside control came from Irv-
ing G. Root. of Chevy Chase, q
professional planner.
But he called the bill "ridicu-
lous" because it provides for only
q 75-foot setback, when, at least.
200 feet are needed to regulate
billboards. All the present bill
would do. he said, is keep filling
stations. stores, motels and that
sort of thing rs feet back from
the highway-nobody would be
deferred from putting up such |
establishments"
Raised Eyebrows.
Causing some raised eyebrows
among committee members, Mr.. |
Root declared:
"The wealthy billboard boys |
have so consistently had their
way with the Maryland Legisla-
ture that the electorate, who are
Interested in this bill will want
to know, is it a sellout or a give
away?"
