NEW EQUIPMENT

Interesting comparisons be.
tween conditions in the town OF
Smyrna one hudred years ago and
the present day were revealed in
a talk before the Smyrna Lions
Club by Town Manager Rex D,
Gilmore on Monday night. Using
excerpts from the minutes of
town council in 1S45 he told of
rules and regulations regarding
travelling on the streets within the
town, when the maximum speed
was six miles per hour. Horses
and oxen shall not be fed in
Commerce Street between Main
and Market" the minutes read.
Real estate was assessed at $133,-
900 with tax rate ten cents on
S100 to raise S133.90 for operat-
ing expenses. In contrast with
today's sanitary provisions was
a motion made in 1846 to deter
mine that after the first day of
June butchers were not to hang
or expose their meat in the paths
and footpaths of any of the pub
lie streets" In 1855 crossings
were laid down and bridges at
the corners of the streets, and
the machinery set in motion to
procure curbing and fagstone to
be delivered by boatloads to
Smyrna Landing. During 1857
and 1858 curbing and sidewalks
were installed, many of the curbs

4.74Pct. Bond
Sold in Fairfax
Sole Bid Accepted
By School Boord

The Fairfax County School
Board today sold a SO million
bond issue carrying an interest
rate of Ala per cent.
1t was the highest interest
rate ever accepted by the county
in the sale of a bond issue.
The lone bid was offered by
a syndicate headed by the First
National City Bank of New York
The Virginia State Debt Com
mission, which opened the bid in
Richmond, recommended its ac-
ceptance. The vote Of the Fair
fax School Board was five to one
with Sidney Solomon dissenting
Proposes Delay
Mr.. Solomon suggested that
the county reject the bid be-
cause it was too high and Offer
the bonds again in the spring
when the situation in Virginia
might be better and market con-
ditions generally might improve.
But two other members, DR.
Clyde Gleason and Robert F
Davis. warned that matters may
get worse. They said the State
may adopt even more drastic
measures to prevent indignation
as pending cases are pursued in
court.
Bad market conditions gep-
orally and uncertainty over
Virginia's new anti-integration
legislation have been blamed
for the disinterest of bond buy
ers in Virginia school offerings.
Cost Compared
School officials said the high
rate would cost the county S735.-

of the issue than the % pei

Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles has announced a new
declaration of Independence for
American foreign policy. misin-
Iterpret the Secretary's remarks,
AN official State Department
spokesman said here today.
Mr.. Dulles was not enunci-
ating any new policy the
spokesman said. He was merely
pointing out to NATO members
that sometimes it is impracticable
to consult fully with all allies
before taking emergency action.
HE also pointed out that
America intends to consult with
its allies in every situation now
foreseeable."
A tempest was set of when a
summary of Mr.. Dulles remarks
before yesterdays NATO confer
ence session was made public.
New Doctrine Seen
Some unofficial observers
thought Mr.. Dulles was trying to
outline a new doctrine of indie
pendent American action in for
eign affairs just one day after
he had chided Americas French
and British allies for their recent
independent action in the Suez
situation.
Mr.. Dulles had criticized by
implication the British and
French failure to consult with
America before taking military
action in Egypt. In his own
speech. however. he said that
sometimes consultation is i'm
possible.
It was said officially here to-
day, however, that Mr.. Dulles
by no means thought such con-
lsultation was impossible before
