and will continue to do so. There
is no indication that the area s
tax base will fail to support the
debt requirements.
Opponents - There are not
enough controls on the use of
public funds by the hospital
association and there is no
assurance that additional taxes
might not be needed for operat-
ing the hospital. 1t will operate
in the red by $1.3 million the
first two years.
PrOpOnents-The bill provides
that the county council must
approve all plans and specifica-
tons for the hospital. All ex-
penditure of bond funds by the
association will be handled in
the same way other county ex-
penditures are made, i.e., vouch-
erS must be approved by the
purchasing officer and the di-
rector of finance.
This bill bars the use Of any
bond funds other than for con-
struction and equipping of the
hospital. Maintenance and OPP
Grafton would be paid for by
users of the hospital and deficits,
if any, would have to be financed
through private subscriptions. OF
Is hospitals built recently by the
associations consultants, none
are operating in the red.
OppOnents-Creation of a new
taxing area and establishment of
a new tax should be submitted to
a referendum to get the true feel
ingS of the resident. The council
should have provided a referen-
dunn on the bill.
PrOpOnentS-The law does not
permit the county to set up this
type of referendum although
residents can petition it.
Such a referendum must be
countrywide in scope and cannot
be limited to the area directly
affected.
Both sides in the present con-
troversy have taken out adver-
tisements advocating their spe-
cial approach to the problem.

This decision was reached on
the basis of protests submitted

proved a Recreation Department

Itheater. A $4,000 contribution,
Ringing on completion of the
project within three years, was
accepted from the Arlington War

Yesterday, board members
rescinded their earlier action and
moved to refer the matter to the
Planning Commission. A report

OppOnents-A new full scale
study is needed Of hospital facili-
ties and requirements in the
county and more particularly in
relation to the movement into

District hospitals.
PrOpOnentS-This is a delaying
tactic aimed at killing the pres

have been made and area figures
show a need for additional facili-
ties despite the increased hos
pital capacity in Washington.
Opponents - The maximum
seven cent tax is not limited to
the 18th District. The law
provides that if this is not suf-
flcient to carry the debt service
the entire county can be taxed
not only on real estate out on
personal property to finance the
hospital.
Proponents - Technically this
is true. The county must always

"A concerted drive is underway
to have the hospital bill put to q
referendum.
The hospital bill in short does
these things:
/. 1t authorizes the county
council to float a SO million bond
issue to help pay for construc-
ton of a hospital estimated to
cost some 81 million.
2. The bonds would be paid
off through a special tax not to
exceed seven cents per 500 OF
assessed valuation on property
in the 18th Election District
(Silver Spring Wheaton, out
side the Incorporated areas Of
Takoma Park, Chevy Chase
View and KenSington.
3. The hospital would be built
owned and operated by the Silver
Spring Hospital Association, q
non-prof1t organization.
Active Opposition
The hospital bill has been in
dorsed by al organizations in
the 18th Election District. A
number of groups have opposed
it. Leading opposition to the bill
and the drive for a referendum
is the Montgomery County Hos
pital Referendum Association
whose spokesman and chairman
is Julian A. Bartolini.
Mr.. Bartolini says the group
is interested only in getting
enough signatures to insure a
referendum on the hospital bill
Once that is accomplished, he
adds, as far as he personally is
concerned "the association is de-
funct." He adds. however, there
apparently will be a reorganiza-
ton Of the group.
Mr.. Bartolini insists the as

hospital plan.
The Silver Spring hospita
group feels that If there is going
to be a hospital built in the
area, it will have to be paid fol-
by residents of the area.
Clarke L. Fauver, vice presi'
dent Of the hospital association
has described the present plar
of financing construction as "in'
stallment buying"
Among the major points o.
contention between opponent
and proponents of the bill are
Opponents = The h ospita
