Acc Filling
Station Site
Gets Airing

Rezoning of land to provide
legal status for a Gulf filling
station directly across from
the Atomic Energy Commits
sion building at the intersec-
ton of routes 240 and 118 was
considered by the County
Council at a public hearing
last Tuesday afternoon.
Attorneys J. Hodge Smith and
! Ehonpas C. Kelley told the coun.
Gil the previous permit had ex-
pired before the building was
completed. They presented a pc
tition of nearly hundred names
of residents in the area approx
ing the rezoning petition.
Blair Lee III, planning consult.
ant, was called in TO testify to
the fitness of the rezoning pro-
posal. He spoke of the safety
angle, commenting that due to the
topography of the land and de-
sign of the ramp cars must slow
down on entering the ramp and
no special traffic hazard would
result from a station at this point.
He claimed this reZoning would
be a part of the staged develop
ment of the area suggested by
the expert planners. He pointed
out that the proposed station
would be directly adjacent to the
proposed airport site and a neces-
sary part of the expansion pro
gram.
Attorney Harold Smith, Jr., rep
resented Dyke Cullum in claiming
the need for an access road into
the station and other facilities
which would likely be proposed
in the development of the area.
He said he was not opposed to
the station on the site.
Lee refuted with the statement
that Route 118 had been desig-
mated by the State as a primary
road and was, in the 12-year plan
for widening program. As such,
he said il could not be denied an
access road.
In other action the Council APP
proved nursing homes as special
exceptions and in commercial
zones waived the building line re-
strictions in the transition period
where residences are zoned COM
mercial yet not fit for actual
commercial use.

Emergency
Drought
Loans OK'd

Sen. j. Glenn Beall r., Md
said yesterday that he has been
informed by the Department of
Agriculture that emergency loans
will be made available to Mary
lands drought-stricken farmers.
Beall, who wrote to Secretary
of Agriculture Benson less than
two weeks ago urging him TO
approve such assistance, said APP
plications for the loans can be
made through local offices of
the Farmers Home Administra-
ton.
Farmers eligible for emer-
gency loans are those who suf-
fered losses because of the
drought and who cannot obtain
credit locally. The interest rate
on emergency loans is three per
cent.
Beall wrote Benson after re-
quests TO have the State desig-
mated a major disaster area
were not approved by the White
House.
In reply to the Senator's COM
munication, the Department of
Agriculture reported that all of
Maryland would be eligible to re-
ceive the aid except Garrett
County.

Assessor
Is Fired
By State

The Maryland State Com
Commission Tuesday upheld
the suspension of ex-County
Assessor Henry H. Carter and
ordered him dismissed from
his job after he failed" to
bear out charges of favoritism
in the county assessors Of
flee.
Carter appeared before the
Commission last Thursday in an
effort to support charges he
made in a letter to County Man
ager Melvin l.. Reese last March
Carter was suspended by Super
visor of Assessments Wilton T.
Allen on June 25 for disrupting
office morale and for making
unfounded accusations.
Carter's attorney, Earl H. Davis,
said he would wait until he got
a copy of the Commissions find
ings before taking any further
steps.
Told of the action, Carter said
that he was still willing" to at
tempt to prove statements he
said were facts, but that he
couldn't be expected to prove
statements he admitted were of
flee rumors."
Allen said that no changes have
been made in the manner in which
tax assessments are handled by
his office since Carter leveled
his charges. He said that the
Commissions action included pay
ing Carter his salary until last
Tuesday.

Joseph Geeraert, Rockville
builder, lost his bid for apart
ment rezoning of 80 acres in the
Meadowhall subdivision and DR..
Leonard Kapiloff, dentist, was
granted a similar request for 10
acres at the end of Monroe Street
in final decisions voted by the
Rockville Mayor and Council
Tuesday.
The vote on the Geeraert APP
plication was four to one with
Councilman Wendell Turner the
only member in favor.
Mayor Dickran Hovsepian,
Councilmen Turner and John Ok
ley swung the vote in favor of
DR.. Kapiloffs project which is
designed for maximum of 200
garden-type apartments.
Councilmen Alexander Greene
and Frank Ecker opposed the
rezoning because of traffic con-
gestion on Monroe Street and the
lack of a general plan of land
development in the area.
Geeraert who protested the de-
cision which the Mayor termed
"the most difficult of my career
said he would apply for recon
sideration, possibly on a smaller
tract which would limit him by
the zoning ordinance to the 400

Tidewater's Stand
On Oil Imports
Blasted BY IPAA

Midland, Tex.-A strong verbal
barrage against Tidewater Oil
Company's position relative to
scheduled oil imports has been
leveled by Robert L. Wood, presi-
dent of the Independent Petro-
leum Association of America.
Tidewater, whose imports aver
aged 22,200 barrels daily last year,
was given a quota of $4,000 barrels
daily by the government but in
sists that it needs a minimum of
$4,000 barrels daily.
Tidewater is one of seven com
panies seeking higher quotas. Tide
water, however, closed it's Bayonne
refinery in 1854 and did not get its
replacement in Delaware on steam
until early this year. 1t had plan
ned to import $4,000 barrels daily
for the new plant and contends
that the $4,000 barrel cut in i'm
ports would endanger it's 5000 mil
lion investment in the new refin-
cry.
Wood charged that it is "shock-
ing" that Tidewater should con-
tinue it's stubborn refusal to accept
the governments program for linn
iting oil imports in the interest of
national security"
at is unbelievable that large
and responsible company should
continue to place its individual
interests above the interest of our
nation" Wood added. "The gov
ernment's, oil import program rep
resents an attempt to resolve a
grevious and long-standing prob
lem of fundamental consequence to
national defense and the consum-
ing public. If this program fails
those responsible for such
failure must also accept response
bility for whatever further action
is taken to maintain our nations
security as to OIL"

Just as we are right-handed or
left-handed, most of US are either
right-eyed or left-eyed. Figures
show that in COZ of the people, the
right eye dominates the vision. The
left eye takes over in 253o of the
cases. The remaining 1879 alter
nate. We are not born with this
trait; we begin life giving both
eyes the same workout. But as
we grow older, we begin reading
and doing other close work. The
result: instead of fusing the i'm
ages of the two eyes, we are in
clined to lean on one more than
the other.
