Prince Georges Bids
For More Industries

The company once manufac-
tured a light plane known as the
Ercoupe. reaching a peak of "a
a day in 1916 but finally discon-
tinuing production in 1947.
Several research and develop
ment firms are located in College
Park also. likewise along the B&O
Railroad. These include such
plants as the Ahrendt Instru-
ment Co., Washington Institute
of Technology. and the Maryland
Electronics Co.
New Warehouse Area
One of the more recent indus
trial additions to the county is a
large Safeway Stores warehouse
along Cabin Branch road, near
Sheriff road. The Giant food
chain. the Red Cross and several
other large operations also have
started to locate there.
Another area which has rapidly
built UP for industrial use is that
along River road between Bla-
densburg and Kenilworth, largest
of which is the Southern Oxygen
Co. employing about 200 persons
in the manufacture Of COM
pressed gases.
A steel plant is located at
Beaver Heights, just over the
District line from Kenilworth.
Industrial operations in the Sill
yer Hill. Temple Hills and Suit
land area of the county are re-
stricted to a number of large
gravel pit operations. Other large
gravel pits are in operation near
Branchville and off the Balti-
more boulevard around Muirkirk
A large brick manufacturing
company also is located at Muir
kirk.
One of the more recently
rezoned industrial tracts. away
from the suburban area, is a So
acre site at Richie road and
Central avenue. The Coca Cola

The extra length on the bev-
eled block has two-fold pur-
pose. It distributes the load and
will help serve as a socket for
the accessories to be described
in another article.
They'll Stack Better
Note that the leg braces on
the longer horse are fastened to
the outside edges of the legs.
and to the inside leg edges of
the other. This enables the
horses, when stacked, to nest
more closely together.
The shorter horse can be
equipped with a tool tray with
out interfering with this nesting
feature. Merely screw a piece of
plywood about % inches long
and 10 inches wide, notched to
fit around the legs, to the bot
toms of the two leg braces.
1nasmuch as all screws are
used close to board ends, and
splitting would seriously weaken
the horses, pilot holes should be
bored and the wood countersunk
for the screw heads. Don't make
the mistake of using short
screws. The extra length helps
reinforce the wood into which
the threads are sunk, an i'm

BY HAROLD SMITH

Sawhorses are highly useful
home shop aids. though they do
pose something Of storage
problem. We can minimize this
objection in a couple of ways.
One is to build two horses so
they will nest together when not
in use. Another is to widen their
usefulness with accessories.
Let's begin by building a brace
Of sturdy horses of the right
height for conventional use. with
fiat tops wide enough to hold
lumber fiat while it's being
sawed.
In a subsequent article we can
take up the accessories which
can be used either to increase
the height of each horse ito
hold staging, temporary lawn
tables. etc. or to convert the
pair into tray-topped platforms
to take the back break out of
upholstering and similar jobs.
Lumber. Hardware List
To build the horses, we'll need
a 10 foot length of 2 by 6 inch
plank in straightforward soft
wood like pine or fir for the tops.
and two 10 foot lengths of / by
4 inch boards of the same ma
terial for the legs and braces.
For hardware we'll require
eight A-inch carriage bolts 3l2
inches long, and about four
dozen No. 10 flat-head wood
screws 2 inches long. d,
Most of the pieces require
angle cuts. because of the f1ared
legs. The angles are the same
throughout. however. and are
easily marked off with the aid of
a 24-inch carpenters (framing)
square. as shown in the accom-
panying sketch.
If you have a protractor. the
angle is 9 degrees. II not. you
can use the square to cut the
correct angle on a piece of scrap
lumber. using this pattern to lay
out the other saw cut marks.
Pointers on Assembly
AS the sketch shows, each pair
Of legs is Joined by a l0-inch
length of 2 by 6 inch stock
which is beveled so the legs will
fit on fiat. Then the leg pairs
are Joined by boiling them to the
ends of 2 by 6 inch top stretch
ers. one 80 inches long and the
other a half inch longer, to les
sen the chance of the horses
binding when they're stacked for
storage.
The bolts are countersunk be-
low the surface of the sawhorse
tops to lessen the chance that
you'll hit them accidentally with
the teeth of your saw. To make
each bolt hole, first bore 1-inch
hole Y inch deep. clamp the

Bottling Co. has a large new
plant there now. The key to de-
veloping this area further lies in
its proximity to a proposed inner
belt road expected to be COM
pleted around the county in
about flve years.
Another potentially large in
dustrial development has been
started around Palmer highway
and Defense highway near the
new Annapolis Expressway.
There also is scattered indus
trial coming in such places as
Bladensburg, Brentwood and Hy-
attSyille, primarily along the rail-
roads.
THE lack of suitable zoned
sites is only one phase of the
overall lack of any planned in
dustrial program in both coun-
ties" according to the Hoyt re-
ROIb. A1C o0At Cy AAOOCA bAAdO
area promoters had concentrated
on laying out residential and
commercial developments. and
only a few evinced any real in
terest in industrial development
. despite the obvious benefits
to be derived in tax revenues"
The report also criticized the
"lack of community interest" and
said county residents often
viewed industry as IAN intrusion
which will destroy residential
values in the neighborhood :"
The report added: 1T appears
future development will depend
greatly upon the degree of COM
munity interest and encourage
ment which will be found at all
levels from county government
to average citizen"

The welcome mat Is out fol
new industries in Prince Georges
County
The kind Of industries the
county primarily favors are those
of the non nuisance variety
which pay high enough wages tc
enable workers to buy homes
assessed for enough to pay theil
own way.
The county's main attraction
from an industrial standpoint. q
recent report notes. is its excel
lent transportation network -
two railroads, the Pennsylvania
and Baltimore and Ohio; several
through highways like U. 8
Routes l and SOL: and a num-
Der of express roadways either
built or in the making.
Other assets, the report adds
are its excellent market location
comparatively mild winters. and
proximity to the Federal Govern
nent's research and development
programs.
AS of 1858, this report by
Homer HCyt stated, approx
mately IS per cent of the entire
United States population was
within 900 miles of Washington,
The report said this places
Prince Georges County as a
lgrowing market center. "stra-
logically located at the south
western gateway to the heart Of
the United States population
from Washington to Boston"
The county now has some
,307 acres of land actually used
for industrial purposes at present
within the regional district of
the Maryland National Capital
Planning Commission alone. OF
this, 1873 acres are for light in
dustry" and 127 for heavy

Hoyt says the county should

dozen of them carrying out some

At that time, the number Of
