vides his efforts between twitting

The average detective at the
meeting was 55, married, a bit ov-
erweight, didn't pack a rod, and
was a former peace officer of some
sort. He had one modest drink o.
blended whiskey before lunch and
after lunch smoked a 10-cent cigar

Rea Of Upper Marlboro, chair
man of the Southern Maryland
Property Protective Association.
The bill under attack by the
delegation of about SO property
owners would authorize gas
companies to acquire storage
rights by condemnation when
property owners refuse to enter
negotiations. The Maryland
Public Service Commission would
have to approve the project as
in the public interest.
Individual Opposition
The county commissioners re-
fused to oppose the bill officially.
but several members indicated
disapproval of it's condemnation
provision.
II don't like the condemna-
ton part of it," said Board
Chairman Jesse S. Baggett.
Commissioner Frank j. Lastner
said "a majority of the board is
against this condemnation"
The company is exploring the
county's Brandywine section to
find suitable geological conditions
below the earth's surface for
storage so gas can be purchased
from suppliers at a uniform rate.
Advocates of the storage plan
say this would result in reduc-
ton in cost to consumers.
why does this bill for con-
demnation have to be enacted
when the company is still in the
exploratory stage and doesn't
even know if it can do the job?"
Mrs. Rea asked.
She said her investigations
have led her to believe that both
and natural gases are
toxic and that the greatest dan
ger would be to the Metropoli-
tan Area of the county closer
to Washington.
