Alexandra Gets
zOning Report

A report aimed at preserving
areas zoned for low density de-
velopment in Alexandria was re-
leased today by Denis Cahill,
city planning director.
The report said the cost of
improving the land for larger lot
sizes is less per acre than the
cost Of Improvements for smaller
lots.
Mr.. Cahill said the study was
made to refute arguments by
some developers that the cost
of developing areas in low den
sity zones is too high to make
it economically feasible.
Average Costs Shown
The study showed the average
cost of improvements in R-12
zones neutrality-suspicious. LOTS is
$1,000 an acre. Costs in R-8
zones $1,000 square feet) are
$5,490 an acre, in RS $1,000
square feet $6,406 an acre, and
in R-2-5 (2,500 square feet
$7,139.
The figures include the costs
Of streets. curbs and cutters,
sidewalks, driyeways and storm
and sanitary sewers.
Alexandria has a little over
1000 lots zoned R-12. three
fourths of which are still I'M
developed. About 10 per cent
of Alexandria's total are is zoned
R-12. Mr.. Cahill said.
Sees Change Unnecessary
The director said that chang
ing the present master Zoning
plan is unnecessary. He said
that. with more careful land
planning. any residential zone
in the city can be developed with
a sufficient financial return to
the developer"
Alexandria's highest zone is
R-20. which provides lots of
10000 square feet or nearly one
half acre. Most of this land is
located in a large estate area
along Seminary road and no
comparison cost was made be-
cause no subdivisions have been
built recently on half-acre lots

p times more likely TO get polio
THAN IS the child who has re.
Iccivcd the vaccine.
| 3. What is the full schedule OF
Vaccinations?
One vaccination. followed by
lanothcr injection at least 4
| weeks later. A third injection
,IShould be given seven months
latter the second, to provide
lmaNimum protection from polio
I. How long does it take the
vaccine TO establish its protcc-
tive effects?
The first vaccination begins to
take effect from seven to ten
days after it is given. The sec
fond injection brings a sharper
rise N protection.
I >. Should the vaccine be Civ
|cn during the polio season?
NsS. Immediate vaccination OF
an entire community is the best
safeguard. There is scarcely any
evidence that the polio inicc-
tI"ns cndangcr a person even
during a period of polio prevcl-
ancc.

ported that the second shot will.

tic polio only. Non-paralytic po-
lilo is no worse than Severel

More than half a million have
been vaccinated in North Caro-
ina. Additionally, more than
50, 100000 in the United States.
