THE legislation. This testimony
before the committee last week
led some Of the Senators to
Icharge that in effect the Gov
|ernment was paying 50 per cent
of the Natural Gas and Re-
sources Committees campaign
for the legislation.
Mr.. Heyke said his group was
formed at a Los Angeles meeting
October IS. 1865. and set up q
Washington Office last December
He explained that the council
was considered first as a "co-or-
dinating committee" for the dis
Itributing industry but later il
was found necessary to register
the council as a lobbying organi-
zation. He said this was done be-
cause OF requests by Senator's for
information and because the
council found it necessary to
carry on contact work with Sem
ators from areas where the or
ganization had no members.
Both Mr.. Frazier and Mr.
Himsworth, it was brought out,
remained on the payrolls Of Their
respective companies while car
Tying on the councils activities
Mr.. Heyke said the council
prepared and distributed a num-
Der of pamphlets and fact sheets,
some of which went to members
lof the Senate.

subcommittee members made
clear today. as on previous oc-
Icasions, that they challenge the
claims as too sweeping. as being
unsupported by the Constitu-
ton or statutes. and as threaten
ing the principle OF separation
of powers in the Government.
They nevertheless say the
brief is valuable" because it
apparently has been used on
specific occasions by the Justice
Department during the Eisen-
hover administration. and per-
Ihaps previously, as the basis for
that executive claim.

bulky brief.
A subcommittee official ex-
planned today that the brief APP
parently has been in the Justice
Department for several years. II
contains no legal case citations
since 1949, he said. Its key con-
tention is that:
congress cannot under the
Constitution compel heads Of de-
|partments to make public what
the President desires to keep Sc
Icret in the public interest. The
President alone is the judge Of
that interest and is accountable
only to his country in his politi-
cal character and to his con-
science.
There is no power in the Con-
greSs or the courts to compel
the Presidents discretion or de-
cision respecting the propriety

A first reading Of the brief
failed to convince subcommittee

"has made any legal case' that

Congress or the courts to dis

and it is this fertile land and the
beauty of its rolling countryside
that gave Middleburg its later
growth and prosperity.
Middleburg got it's name as
the halfway mark on Route
so between Alexandria and Win
chester. Few residents here doubt
that the town is going to grow,
but community leaders hope they
can control future growth in
order to maintain the village
character.
Plan for Towns Future
Middleburg has a plan. The
plan is unusual in that it has
been sponsored, not only by town
residents, but by owners of es-
tates in the Middleburg area.
The purpose is to maintain the
village character of Middleburg
in the face Of increased pressures
of growth.
Middleburg Mayor Edwin c.
Reamer says the State Highway
Department has plans for SUI
per highway that will bypass
the village to the north. AL
though this road will be linn
tied access highway. it is be-
lieved that it will attract growth
into that area now largely made
UP of estates.
In Middleburg the horse is all
important. Since the turn of the
century, when Northern sports
men discovered the all-year ad-
vantages of the Northern Vir-
ginia area, Middleburg has been
considered the fox hunting
capital" of the country. Much of
its economy has been based on
the sport of fox hunting.

Middleburg, once known as
Chinn's Crossroads, came into
being in 1887 when Col. Leyen
Powell set aside so acres from a
tract of land purchased from
Joseph Chinn for the village. The
towns streets still follow the pat
tern laid out by Col. Powell. and
many still bear the original
names. Streets were named for
such men as Washington, Pendle-
ton. Madison and Marshall.
In Sharon Cemetery a marble
shaft, maintained by the Mid
dleburg Chapter of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy,
marks the common grave of a
number of unknown dead of the
Civil War. In a circle, surround
ing this marker, are the graves
of Confederate officers and men
who were victims of the First
Battle of Manassas.
Oldest Buildings
One of the oldest buildings in
the village is the Red Fox Tavern,
a stone house built about 1923.
Now a familiar inn in Northern
the tavern once was a
stage stop on the route between
Alexandria and Winchester.
Among other historic buildings
in the area is the Brick House,
the central building at Foxcroft
School, nationally famous
school for. girls established in
1914 by Miss Charlotte holland.
The Brick House was once the
nome of Mary Ball, mother of
George Washington. Tradition
mas it that Washington's par
ents met in the parlor in the
Brick House.
