Oleandomycin is relatively neg

Patients with infections that

Wider County
Planning Asked
Grand Jury Points
To Population Rise

Extension OF the areas served
by the Maryland National Cap
ltal PARK and Planning Com
mission and the Washington
SUBURBAN Sanitary Commission
were urged today by a Prince
Georges County grand jury as
a means of keeping pace with
the county's rapid population
growth.
The recommendations were
included in a lengthy report to
Judge Charles C. Marbury, who
read it aloud.
Lack Of Standards Noted
In its. reference to the plan
ming commission. the jury said:
1.-THE lack of standards for
urban development in areas out
side the Regional District will
not Serve the best interest of the
population. For that reason it
is the recommendation of this
jury that the Prince Georges
delegation to the Legislature take
the necessary action to extend
the boundaries of the Regional
District I.
The grand jurors said this
would provide planning services
to many additional property
owners not at present within the
Regional District at a minimum
of COST cents per 500 assessed
valuation.
The jury recommended also
that appropriate steps be taken
by Informing citizens concerned
and. initiating proper legislative
action for the extension of the
sanitary district" The jury urged
that no taxes be levied in the
additional areas until services
are, provided except in cases OF
necessity for planning costs.
Other Recommendations
Among the other recommended
tons were the employment OF
three full-time county commits
sioners, instead of one as at
present. to supervise the admin
istration of health. safety. public
works. planning and purchasing
The jury also said additional
industrial coming should be en-
couraged by the county COM
missioners and civic organiza-
itionS.
The jury added that all county
employees should be included in
the State merit system in view
of the possibility Of administra-
ton changes every four years.
{ Since converting on October /
the jury said it considered 12s
cases and returned 102 indict-
ments. 1t ignored II cases anc
continued four.

Mr.. Wagner praised the COM
missions development of stream
valley parks, whose acquisition
is financed jointly with the
Federal Government. He said
the success Of this program is
due largely to the "unification,
of park and recreation activities
in Montgomery and Prince
Georges Counties.
At Expense Of Parks
But emphasis on this pro-
gram, he said, has been at the
expense of developing large park
areas which would be of far
more benefit to residents,
Mr.. Wagner said the Capper-
Cramton Act. under which the
Federal Government shares costs

ton of the idea that the limits
of the Capital City go far beyond
the limits of the District Of

While the first steps must be
to plan such parks. he said, it
is vital that the cost of carry
ing out the plan be shared by
the several governmental agen-
cies involved at least in the
basic acquisition of land

in advance of the subdivision
of land by private developers.
He also recommended that addi-
tional park development be held
up to permit money to be used
for land purchase.
At the same time, however, Mr..
Wagner warned that the value
of stream valley parks is being
undermined by the destructive
forces Of increasing amounts Of
storm drainage" He said the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission should participate
in the valley protection and that
"a new formula for the division
of the cost" appears to be
needed.
Notifications Proposed
The consultant's report ranged
over the entire administrative
setup of the commissions park
program, and suggested a num-
Der of notifications. One called
for a single park staff director.
with assistants in each Of the
two counties.
He also urged more emphasis
on acquiring sites for combined
Ipark-school purposes. but said
the division of costs" should
first be worked out between
school and park agencies.
Another recommendation urged
more study of the use of park
areas for highways. While he
did not argue against such dual
uses Of land, he said the public
interest in the park must be up
held through the absolute re-
placement of the park values
