much the city will pay If it de-
cides to seek its future water
supply from the WSSC instead
of tapping the Potomac.
Harry B. Shaw, WSSC chief
engineer, agreed to prepare the
figures after meeting last week
with Rockville City Manager
John MARYLAND.
Meanwhile, the city is going
ahead with plans for a Sept. 10
referendum on the bond issue
needed to finance the proposed
water line to the Potomac.
The WSSC also announced last
week that it probably will tap
the river by 1860. Rockville's

Rockville agreed to take the

should be given a six percent
raise and principals and supervi.
sors four percent pay hike.
In a letter dated August % c.
Ferdinand Sybert, Attorney Gem
eral, and Alexander Harvey II
Assistant Attorney General,
stated:
/. Nowhere IN the Public
School laws of Maryland is there
any indication that the selection
of a site for proposed school is
in any way the concern of the
County Council or other county
legislative or administ a tive
body"
2. ut is clear that the
amount of salary increases to be
paid teachers in the various coun-
ties is solely within the discretion
of the County Board of Educa-
ton"
The ruling, made in answer to
a request from the School Board,
was mailed to DR.. Thomas G. Pull
len, Jr., State Superintendent Of
Schools, and DR.. Forbes H. Norris,
County School Superintendent.
The opinion actually answers
only academic questions now since
the School Board has abandoned
the Bradley-Seven Locks site and
approved pay raises in conform
ance with the Councils intention.
The Board, however, indicates
ii will continue to fight for the
straight six percent salary raise it
requested. Only about $4,000 is
involved, the Board says.
The Attorney General did not,
apparently, completely rule out
Council influence in school con-
struction. The opinion states,

bonds or other appropriation of
funds for the school building is
within the exclusive discretion of

The opinion also leaves a way
open for the Council to reject re-

side Of the bath, along the Dashboard,
under the door and into a wall socket
just outside on the landing.
When he had first installed the heater,
Edyth had demurred at this somewhat
SlipShod arrangement. But he had ex-
planned that the local Council was stupid
and fussy about fitting wall sockets in
bathrooms since water was said to be
conductor, and she had agreed to let him
run the cord under the linoleum.
Al the moment the heater was
perfectly visible in the bath. 1t certainly
looked as if it had fallen into its odd
position accidentally, but no one in his
senses could have stepped into the water
without seeing it. Ronald paused, his
ugly mouth narrower than ever. The
beautiful simplicity Of the main plan, so
swiftly fatal and. above all, so safe as far
as he was concerned, gave him thrill Of
pleasure as it always did.
He turned off the bath and waited.
listening. Edyth was coming back. He
could hear her moving something on the
concrete outside the back door below
and he took a paper sachet from his
jacket pocket.
He was reading the directions on the
back of it when slight sound made him
turn his head, and he saw, to his horror,
the woman herself not five feet away.
Her neat head had appeared suddenly
just above the fiat roof of the scullery,
outside the bathroom window. She was
clearing the dead leaves from the cutters
and must. he guessed, be standing on
stepladder.
IT was typical Of the man that he
did not panic. Still holding the sachet
lightly he stepped between her and the
bath and spoke mildly.
what on earth are you doing there,
darling?"
Edyth started so violently that she
almost fell off the steps. ''Oh, how you
startled me! | thought I'd just do this
little job before | came up to change. If
it rains, the gutter floods all over the

Every thoughtful of you, my DEAR
