Foirffdx Board to ntetvene
In 2 Water Rate Cases

The Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors has decided to in
tervene in two pending rate
cases to protect consumers from
higher water bills.
On motion of Brig. Gen. Rich
ard P. )Ovenshine, the super
viSors yesterday instruct d
County Executive c. c. Massey
to hire technical and legal as
sistance to represent the county
lat water rate hearings before
the State Corporation Commits
sion on November /.
The scheduled hearings are
on proposed changes in the
wholesale rate structure of the
Alexandria and Virginia Water
companies, the Annandale Water
Co. and Fairfax Hydraulics.
Alexandria and Virginia, which
supply water to Fairfax Hy-
draulics and Annandale, have
asked sec to raise wholesale
rates for water it sells Annandale
and to make Fairfax Hydraulics
buy most it's water from Alex
andria and Virginia. Fairfax
Hydraulics now buys only as
much water as it needs from
Alexandria and Virginia, and
gets the rest of it supplied from
wells.
Fear Higher Bills
Customers of Annandale and
Fairfax Hydraulics fear they will
have to pay higher retail bills if
the two applications are granted.
The decision to intervene came
after the supervisors read a re-
port from the county Public Uti-
lities Commission expressing
concern over possible consumer

Mr.. Smith said he felt his Job

pending cases.
Sale of the final S2.9 million
block of sewer bonds was author
lied by the supervisors. Mr..
Massey estimated it would take
about so days to prepare for the
bond sale.
The sum represents the last
of the $40 million sewer improve
ment bond issue approved in
1858. Bonds from the final block
of bonds will be used to build the
Holmes Run relief sewer, install
secondary treatment facilities at
the Dogue Greek and Little
Hunting Creek disposal plants,
build sewer facilities for the
Central Intelligence Agency's
headquarters and finish all
sewer lines as originally proposed
in the $40 million program.
A $277,824 contract for sewers
in the Dun Loring area was
awarded to A. G. Pinkston and
Co.. of Portsmouth, Va.
Mr.. Massey said this was the
last contract that could be
awarded from bonds already sold.
An application of the Sydnore
Pump & Well Co. for permis-
sion to install a private water
system for a new l41-home sub
division on Belmont Bay was
referred to the planning COM
mission for recommendations.
Standards Questioned
Mr.. Massey advised the super
viSors that the proposed system
would not come up to standards
the county adopted on August
/. Robert E. Ryan, representing
the firm, said it is not practical
to put in pipes as large as the
county standards specify or to
install fire MIGRANTS because the
subdivision is too small and too
isolated.

Rozing ofHoII
In Alexandra

An attempt to save another
historic building is being made
by three Alexandria organiza-
tons.
The Alexandria Association.
the Old Town Civic Association
and the Historic Alexandria
Foundation are trying to find a
buyer who will restore the old
Lyceum at 201 South Washington
street, which is scheduled to be
RACED.
The Architectural Board of
Review, which has agreed to
grant a permit November II for
razing the building, tabled a re-
quest last night by the three
associations to reconsider its
action.
The three organizations were
successful last week in saving the
Lloyd House at 200 North Wash
ington street when a Wyoming
man agreed to buy 1t to preserve
it.
The Lyceum, now owned by
Mrs. Ruthanne r. Refs, was built
in about 1884 and vas used by
the Lyceum Society, founded by
Benjamin Hallowell, the Quaker
schoolmaster who tutored Robert
E. Lee.
The building. which is con-
sidered one of the finest examples
of classical revival architecture
in the United States once was
used as the Alexandria library
and was the scene of lectures
given by many famous early
The attorney for Mrs. Refs
said the building needs repair
and that it is not profitable to
keep it. The building, located
across from the post Office. was
the headquarters for the Alex
andria Chamber of Commerce
until the chamber moved re-
Gently into its own building.

He has had at least two jot
