Mrs. Viner's friends wanted to
have her picture in the paper so
they could clip it out and keep it.
But Mrs. Viner refused to be
photographed or interviewed.

Sewage Truce
AT Hoffman City
Believed Near

BALTIMORE. May 81 R.-
The State Board of Health sug-
gested yesterday that opponents
in a Prince Georges County dis
pute involving disposal Of sew
age in a branch Of Piscataway
Greek try to- iron out their diff
ferences without intervention by
the board.
Brandywine Utilities Co. was
issued a permit to discharge
sewage from a plant built for its
proposed housing development
in the Brandywine area known
as Hoffman City.
The company was given per-
mission to discharge sewage into
a branch of the creek for 80
days. After that time the dis
charge is to be fed into the
creek proper.
Residents Of the area protest.
ed that the branch has dried up
for three months during each of
the last two years. They pro-
posed that Brandywine Utilities
be ordered to provide under
ground conduit sewerage.
Favor Conduit System
When it became apparent that
some residents we're particularly
in favor of the underground sys-
TEN because they might then
connect their own sewage-dis-
posal facilities to the proposed
main conduit. representatives of
the firm agreed to discuss this
possibility with them further.
M. William Addison. Gov. Nc
Keldin's law partner and a
spokesman for the construction
company, suggested to the board
that agreement between his
client and neighboring residents
might be reached along these
lines.
The board agreed to let its
permit remain effective pending
further development.
Aid tor Health Programs
In other actions yesterday the
board:
l. Agreed to begin revamping
the system Of financial aid to
county health programs so that
the State would bear only about
half of the total cost in any
county This was urged by Gov.
McKeldin in line with lecom-
mendations py a commission di-
rected ry Richard w. Case,
Baltimore attorney. 1t could
mean proportionately less State
aid to Cecil. Dorchester, Charles,
Worcester, Somerset, Talbot,
Caroline, Kent and Calvert
Counties.
2. Reversed itself by withdraw
ing permission from the Mezza-
notti & Co. construction firm to
discharge sewage from a treat
nient plant at Friendly Village,
Prince Georges County, into Lit
tie Broad Creek. The board took
this step after Mrs. Helen
OLeary, representing down.
stream property owners, said
this would create a health haz-
ard. The board said it vas dn-
aware Of neighborhood protests
when it earlier granted permis-
sion to the construction firm.

Sales Tax Plan
Hiti in Drive

Cullen b. Jones, Jr., who is
seeking the Democratic nomina-
tion to the Virginia Senate from
Alexandria. announced yester-
day he is unqualifiedly opposed
to State sales tax, and took
issue with comments on the
same matter by his opponent,
Armistead L. Boothe.
II am opposed to a sales tax,
with no ifs. ands or butts about
it," said Mr.. Jones. "The reason
a sales tax produces so much
revenue is. of course. the fact
that everyone pays it over end
over again - not according to
ability to pay"
He noted that Mr. Boothe had
been quoted as denying that he
ever spoke out for a sales tax or
increased gasoline tax.
IF my opponent does not
favor a sales tax why does he
dangle in front of the voters the
tempting plum of $40 million
the estimated revenue from a
2-cent sales tax?" asked Mr..
Jones. "The answer is so OBJ
vious that some people may be
reluctant to accept it for that
very reason.
"The answer Is that my oppo-
nent fully intends to. marshal
the Young Turks in Richmond
for a dedicated battle to impose
upon the people of Virginia a
2 per cent sales tax, whether
they want it or not, and then
proceed to attempt to persuade
the people that they didn't
really want to enact a sales tax.
but that there was no other way
to meet pressing needs. To
believe that the people will accept
that is an insult to their in
telligence."
Mr.. Jones took issue with re-
cent publ1Shed statements OF Mr..
Boothe regarding an increase
in the gasoline tax.
Here again my opponent trips
the light fantastic without ad-
mitting he is either for or against
increasing the gasoline tax, said
Mr.. Jones. The candidate de-
clared he opposes gas tax in
crease.

Officials Study
Road Issue

The Alexandria City Council
held hush-hush executive ses-
sion yesterday to consider road
improvements needed for the
Winkler property on Shirley

gence Agency locates its new $50
million headquarters there.
The meeting-called by City
Manager Ira Willard-was so
secret that Councilmen arriving

sisted they did not know what it
was about.
When the one-hour session
ended, Mayor Marshall j. Bever-
ley announced that certain
capital improvements" had been
discussed He would not elabor-
ate.
Reporters asked if the Council
agreed to build the access road

Winkler property.
mo comment" chorused the
councilmen.
Usually reliable sources con-
firmed. however. that the special
session was devoted to discus
sion of the CHA road. The
Winkler property on Shirley
highway Just beyond Seminary
road is one of half-dozen sites
under consideration by the super
secret agency.
Councilman Frank Mann did
not attend the meeting. He said
he was notified too late to make
arrangements to attend. He de-
clared he was opposed to any
financial commitment by the
city without an opportunity to
air the proposal.

Approved in
GreenbeIt Area
Commissioners
Order Strip Planted
As Screen for Homes

Rezoning Of a 162-acre tract
in Greeneblt for construction Of
"a community Of industries" was
unanimously approved yesterday
by the Prince Georges County
commissioners.
The approval was granted sub
iect to the retention of a 200
foot strip of the property along
the mAin-line tracks of the Bal
timore & Ohio Railroad to serve
as a screen for protection of
residents in the nearby commu-
nifty of Hollywood.
Plans for the industrial de-
velopment were outlined for the
commissioners Wednesday by
Fred w. Tuemmler, a county
planning consultant. who said
industries with an estimated val
uation of IS million are to be
built there.
The request was opposed by
Hollywood residents who said the
industries would create q nuis-
ance and lower the value Of
their properties.
The commissioners said. after
an inspection of the tract. that
the 200-foot strip. planted as a
natural screen, would serve as
protection for the residential
community.
Pass Road Ordinance.
The commissioners passed.
after a brief hearing, an ordi-
nance regulating road construc-
tion in county subdivisions.
1t will give county officials
their initial control over road
construction in areas OF the
county lying outside jurisdiction
of the Maryland-N National Cap
ital Park and Planning Commits
sion.
Fought as Restrictive
The code has been fought by
the Inter-C Community Council OF
Southern Maryland, which con-
sidered 1t too restrictive on small
home builders in rural areas.
The final draft was made more
liberal than the original one,
however, and Southern Maryland
residents failed to produce strong
opposition to the revised code at
yesterdays hearing.
Fred Spinks, council president.
said the group feels the code
should have been adopted by
referendum. He added, however.
that the council will not object
to the ordinance further be
cause it realizes controls are
needed to keep pace with the
county's rapid growth"

This question Is beginning to

ferences with political minded
congressman and cabinet men,
bers during the two weeks which
follow.
In these meetings, the adj

capped as long as nobody knows
