Jury yesterday at conclusion OF
its current session at Rockville.
The fury returned 35 new ir1-
dictments, seven involving land
speculation.
2 Days of Hearings
The report came as the
jury wound UP nearly two full
days OF hearing witnesses linked
previously with the case of
Ben Du Pre-, former as
mission and one of those in
dicted. 1t made no mention
of Du Pre- or the character of the
indictments. But it did have
this comment:
"One of the most difficult
cases presented before this grand
jury in terms of time and detail
involved speculative practices in
connection with the purchase of
rignts-of-way by the State Roads
Commission. It is recommended
that legislation be considered by
the State Legislature placing
some safeguards against a repe-
tition OF such speculative prac-
tees"

called faulty police investigation

First Big Step
In Planning
Groups Project

Fairfax County's proposed
master plan began to take shape
today as the planning commis-
sion announced approval of the
public sewerage portion of the
plan.
This is the first phase OF. the
master plan to be approved by
the Planning Commission since
it first received the recommen-
dation of Consultant Francis
Dodd McHugh one year ago.
AS approved by the planning
commission, the public sewerage
proposal embraces all the rec
concentrations of Mr.. McHugh
and adds approximately II
square miles Of territory to the
sewer service area. Mr.. McIIugh
had recommended a total OF 81
square miles within the sewer
service area, generally following
existing plans for sewer develop
.ment drawn by engineers for the
county five years ago.
Sewerage Plan Held Significant
Keith Price, planning COM
mission chairman, said he con-
|sidered the public sewerage pro-
posal Of the commission signifi.
cant, since close. urban develop
ment logically would follow areas
to be served by sewers.
The public sewerage area app
proved by the planning commis-
lsion covers the eastern third Of
THE county, nearest Washington.
Most Of the 10 square miles adj
Iditional territory added by the
planning commission is within
the Pimmit Run watershed. Mr..
McHugh had placed only one.
third of the Pimmit Run water
shed within the public sewerage
AREA. The planning commission
has recommended that the en-
tire Pimrnit Run watershed be
Included in the area to be served
by sewers by 1880.
Other Areas Added
Other areas which the Plan.
ming Commission added to Mr..
McHugh's public sewerage ter.
|ritory include scattered small
parcels of land that drain into
the watersheds Of Holmes Run,
Trips Run. Back Lick Run. In.
dian Run, Turkeycock Run.
Cameron Run and Little Hunting
Greek. These areas include the
Banks and Lee property on the
west side of Harrison lane, .
small parcel just east Of Rose
Hill Estate. and another small
parcel at the northern tip of
Holmes Run.
There are six remaining Sec
tions Of the proposed McHugh
Master Plan yet to be acted on
by the planning commission.
These include the controversial
residential density plan in which
Mr.. McHugh recommends that
Etwo-thirds of the county be held
to three and five acre lots. Mr..
Price said he expected the pian-
ming commission to consider this
portion of the master plan at its
December meeting.
After the planning commission
finished making recommends
tions on the master plan, it goes

Farm zoninu
Fear Called
Red Herriinq'
Wilton Allen
Denies Assessment
Would Be Higher

Fear Of the effect of zoning
on farm real estate assessments
in Upper Montgomery County
was branded yesterday as a 'red
herring" by County Councilman
Charles JamiSon.
His statement followed an as
sertion by County Assessment
Supervisor Wilton r. Allen that
he did not think coming would
have any effect on assessments.
Assessments are based solely
on actual land values, which are
determined primarily by the use
put to the land, Mr.. Allen told
the County Council,
A farm, he added. would be
assessed as a farm as long as it
/ is being farmed."
Some proponents Of an agri-
cultural zone with a 5-acre
minimum lot size to keep out
residential home builders have
argued that such a restriction
would lead to lower farm land
assessments.
Values Follow Market
Mr.. Allen conceded that prop
erty most highly restricted prob
ably would have the lowest value.
He indicated. however, that
lower assessments could result
only from lowering of the
actual market value Of land and
improvements
"We do not anticipate values"
Mr. Allen said. 1--WE follow
values and trends: we do not
make them"
Mr.. Allen said his office
ignores sales Of farm land at
obviously speculative prices in
determining trends on land
values.
I'VE throw out the $i,000-an-
acre sales since it is obvious they
do not reflect actual farm land
values" Mr.. Allen added.
Mr.. Allen said that farmers
who subdividet their land into
small parcels as home sites face
higher assessments. generally
speaking, because the assessors
are required to establish value
for each parcel.
He added, however, that even
some of the subdivided land may
not be assessed higher If the
owner can show that the actual
value through use has not
changed.
Mr.. Jamison, who is opposed
to the five-acre minimum lot In
the upper county. said he felt
Mr.. Allen had cleared the air
on assessing procedure. destroy
ing the argument used by those
who say 1t would remove the
speculative values on farm lands.
Rezoning Denied
The council yesterday ap-
pointed John B. Cullen Of 119
Primrose street, Chevy Chase.
to fill out a one-year term on the
Appeals Tax Court. He fills a
vacancy created by the resigna-
tion Of Robert Redding.
The council also appointed r.
Watts Farmer Of Redland as
chief Judge Of the court.
