Takoma Park
Audit Praised

Sidney w. Tymeson. Takor11a
Park City Council member and
finance committee chairman, to-
day praised a recent auditors
report on city finances recon-
.mending abolition of salary adj
.vances to city employees.
He said, however. that a year
ago the Takoma Park account
ing office began closing out the
account under which employees
were given salary advances and
that last June 30, the end of the
fiscal year. the record showed the
advanced salary ledger was clear.
Mr.. Tymeson defended the
practice OF advancing public
funds in hardship and emergency
cases to public employees. The
advances. he said, were not
loans"
He cited the example of a po-
liceman's clothing allowance. A
new city policeman is allowed
$240 to buy necessary clothes
but is granted only $40 Of that
sum per month. Mr.. Tymesor
said it has been necessary tc
grant advance clothing allow
ances of over $40 to enable the
policeman to equip himself fol-
duty.
The report on the city's
finances was received by the Ia
koma Park Council on February
2. The auditor, Joseph D. O'Con-
nell, said his report also noted
that the salary advance proce-
dure be recommended against
had been discontinued last year
Mr.. Tymeson expressed be-
wilderment that there should be
any controversy over the report
Maybe it's because an election
is coming up" he said.

ANNAPOLIS. Feb. 10.-Mont-
gomery and Prince Georges
County legislators today are
working on a new bill to reor-I
game the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, after deciding not to
contest Gov. McKeldins veto
of reorganization measure
passed last year.
The new bill is to be prepared
in time for possible introduction
in any special session of the
State Legislature that may be
called after the close of the cur
rent 30-day session on March l
There is talk here that Gov.
McKeldin may call special ses-
sion right after the regular ses-
sion or later in the spring to
authorize an urgent Baltimore
City school bond issue. One also
may be needed to re-enact a
Maryland port authority bill, If
that bill passes this regular
session and the courts rule, as
some lawyers feel they might.
that 1t cannot be enacted in a
30-day session.
Limited on Action
The 30-day sessions held in
even-numbered years are limited
to consideration OF fiscal. emer-
gency and Statewide affairs.
No such limitation applies to
special sessions.
A four-member subcommittee
was appointed to draw up the
new planning commission reor-
ganization bill after the IL Dele
gates and two Senators from
Montgomery and Prince Georges
counties reversed themselves and
voted ll-2 to sustain the veto
OF the 1855 bill. Only last Mon
day night, the joint delega-
ton had voted 81 to override
the Governors veto.
The house was scheduled to
act today on the question OF
Overriding or sustaining the veto
OF the 1855 reorganization bill
and another bill extending the
Planning Commissions jurisdic-
ton throughout virtually all of
Montgomery County.
The Mon gome cry Prince
Georges lawmakers also voted to
ask the House to sustain the veto
on The second bill. Since the two
measures affect only the two
counties. the House was certain
to sustain the vetoes If the dele
gates from the two counties re-
Iguested it.
Wheatley Effects Shift
/ Chief credit for the change OF
heart in the two delegations goes
to State Senator H. Winshir
IWheatley, jr., Democrat of Prince
Georges. He persuaded most OF
his colleagues that If the vetoes
were upheld. the commission
probably would not sell its bonds
and the local legislators would be
handicapped in any new re-
Organization plans they had in
mind.
/ His reference here was to the
growing sentiment among the
Prince Georges and Montgomery
blocs here for splitting the BIZ
county agency into two separate
planning commissions. one for
each county. The commission
strongly opposes such a split and
succeeded several times in stop
ping the former Republican
Montgomery and Prince Georges
Legislators from doing the same
thing.
Under the reorganization bill
passed by the Legislature last
year and vetoed by the Cover
nor. the commission would have
been increased from six to eight

from Republican to Democratic

In one case the plaintiffs, Mr..

charge that E. w. Bucklin, county
director of inspection and licenses
has refused to grant them a build

filed subdivision plat of the one
half acre tract on which they
want to build with the Park and
Planning Commission.
The Dickerson land is on
Briggs-Chaney Road near Coles
vile. Mr.. Billiard says the plan

subdivision plat unless the couple
donates 30-foot wide strip along
their no foot frontage for the
widening of Briggs.Chahey Road.
The lawyer charges that the plan
ming commission is attempting to
take property without due pro-
cess"
In another case, Mr.. and Mrs.
Everett B. Bryan charge that the
Park and Planning Commission
rules forbid them to sell half of
one-acre tract near Burtonsville
unless subdivision plat of the
land is filed and approved.
In third cast Mrs. Eleanor
Martin claims that Mr.. Bucklin
will not grant her building per-
NIT to remodel two houses at
Michigan and Pennsylvania Ave

houses are both on one of the
two adjoining lots she owns.
Mr.. Billiard says the Park and

column is THE Swimming Pool,
Paradise or Paradox" or
Nov What?" Since the cur
rent crises at the pool will af-
feet not only the members but
also their neighbors who have
been included in the area guest
plans and prospective members,
we feel as much general infor-
nation as possible should be
disseminated.
First the financial situation.
Early this month the board of
directors posted a notice on the
bulletin board at the pool to the
effect that a deficit of about
$4,000 this season might force
the closing of the pool
This represents roughly $1,000
in construction needs, the apron,
some plumbing, fencing, etc,
and the first installment on the
mortgage which will be payable
early this fall.
While it would be difficult to
save this much from ones lunch
money, it is after all a piddling
sum when divided by 600. Pidd-
ling sums are however notori,
ously hard to collect and since
there was no general motion on
the part of the members to make
up the deficit voluntarily, the
board decided on startling
series of Embarrassing programs.
Since the need for cash was
urgent, these measures were
taken without consent of the
members and in some cases (the
area guest program for ex-
ample) in direct contradiction
to provisions of the bylaws UNI
der which original memberships
were sold.
The board of directors is
aware of its violation of the
spirit of the laws, but felt JUS
titled in using its guest privi-
leges" which were to allow
for visiting dignitaries and Grip
pied children in order to
make the pool help pay for it.
self. The board was influenced
in its decision by the fact that
guest privileges" are inherently
temporary, and they felt that
members would rather be
crowded than have their dues in.
creased.
AS soon as the plan went into
effect the board solicited the
opinion of the members, and a
vote of 17S to 156 supported the
board in its decision.
At the same time the members
were asked to approve an in
crease in membership or an in
crease in dues to meet the over
all financial problem, which is
chronic. Nov if someone will
give John Eckhardt something
to bite on, we'll over-simplify
everything and perhaps save
some hard feelings and long dis
cussions at the special meeting

A check of 10 community
pools in nearby Maryland and
Virginia, some large, some small,
some built entirely by the con-
tractor and some built with
membership assistance, resulted
in rather surprising fact.
All these pools cost within a

Black bass are as American as
the cOonSkin hat and the Fourth of
July. They are native only to North
America they are more wide
spread on this continent than any
other game fish, and more Amerl-

other game species. However. con-
siderable confusion surrounds these

wrong when they try to identify the
three kinds of black bass spotted.
largemouth and smallmouth.
| There are infallible ways to tell
one bass from another. and they do
not involve complicated counting of
rows or scales. or the number of
spines in fin. AS you probably
have been told many times. there is

a smallmouth and a largemouth

bass will extend back beyond the

There is another less infallible
means of distinguishing them. This
is by their body markings, A small
mouth has pronounced vertical bars
on the sides of its body: large
mouth has a pronounced lateral
dark line running from gills to tail
These markings exist only on youn-
ger fish, big adults sometimes lose
these sharp distinctions That is,
the lateral line of the largemouth
may be so blotched and broken as
to be almost indistinguishable. or
the Smallmouth may be so dark in
overall color that the vertical bars
are hard to define.
