The Commissioners have found
there also is opposition, especially
among farmers to any extension
of the present planning commits
sion's authority and to the added
tax burden which follows.
Delegate Loveless explained
that the law as originally passed
exempted Prince Georges. The
county was placed under its pro-
visions. however, by the 1947
session of the legislature.
State Senator H. Winship
Wheatley. jr.. said that appar-
emily the law has not been in
voked because the resulting cost
to the county might exceed the
cost of obtaining services from
the planning commission.
1T would be well for consid-
Grafton to be given to the COM
parative costs of operating sepa-
rate planning and coming groups
under the county. which would
have to be created and stated,
as against use of the existing ia
cility Of the park and planning
commission" Senator Wheatley
said.
The law, Article 66-B of the
Maryland State Code. grants
county governing bodies the
power ito regulate and restrict
the height. number of stories
and size of buildings and other
structures in order to pro-
mote the health, safety, moral
or the general welfare of the
community"
The powers include planning,
coming, subdivision control and
the location of streets.

.SupportAsked
For Referendum

The Homeowners Federation
of Arlington is urging residents
to support the freeholders' ref
to be held November 6.
If the referendum is approved,
all future bond issues in the
county must be approved by a
majority of property owners as
well as majority of voters.
According to Karl o. Spiess.
sr, president of the Homeowners
Federation, the referendum offers
Arlington an opportunity Ito
a sound economy, to
preserve property values, and to
protect future generations from
a burdensome heritage of in
debtedness which they neither
nor sanctioned"
Mr.. Spiess said Arlington's
present Indebtedness is around
$33 million. and it is estimated
the figure will reach around $1C0
unless restrictions are
placed upon the unconscion-
able spenders and INSCRIPTIONS
takers "
He added: "Some non-prop-
erty owners honestly think that
they are paying in rent their
equitable share of taxes. But
statistics show that they pay far
less per family unit than do the
owners of single-family dwell
lngs. We are not condemning
them or inferring that all ten
ants in apartments or houses are
liberal = conservatives - liberal
with other peoples money but
conservative with their own-but
too many transients reside in
Arlington for only a few years
participating in all County serv-
ices and then move away leaving
the permanent property owners
burdened with heavily mortgaged
homes or businesses"
Mr.. Spiess' comments were
made public today in a letter ad-
dressed to Arlington County resi-
dents.
