Court 10 Rule
On Power Line

Two Montgomery County
Circuit Court judges are ex-
pected to hand down an opin-
ion Monday on whether the
Potomac Electric Power Co. has
the right to condemn land for
a new high-voltage power line
in nearby Maryland.
Lawyers for the utility and
attorneys representing upper
county landowners whose prop
erty PEPCO seeks to acquire
yesterday offered testimony and
arguments at a 6-hour session
before Circuit Judges Thomas
M. Anderson and John r.
Reeves.
The litigation arose in con-
nection with the utility's effort
to obtain land for a S5-mile
high-voltage line extending
south from PEPCO's SIS mil
lion power plant site near Dick
erson. Md. The utility proposes
to build 100 foot steel towers
to support a 220.000-volt power
line.
The entire length of the
right-of-way strip is to be $50
feet wide. 1t covers a total
Of about 1000 acres and in
wolves parts of 126 separate
properties.
Several landowners have
fought the utility's condemna-
ton suits in court and others
have refused to allow PEPCO
surveyors on their land.
The most recent legal argu-
ments revolve around ques-
tons raised by r. Edwin Brown,
attorney for a half dozen af-
fected property owners. His
chief contention is that PEPCO.
when it absorbed the Great
Falls Power Co. in 1947, did
not automatically acquire con-
domination rights given speci-
fically to the Great Falls firm
by the Maryland legislature.
Power company attorneys,
headed by James H. Pugh, sub
mitted IS items of evidence,
consisting principally of corpo-
rate records tracing the complex
history Of PEPCO, its subsidi-
aries and its predecessors in the
Metropolitan Area back to the
early days Of electricity in the
18th century.
Judges Anderson and Reeves
took the case under advisement.
The latter said a written opin-
ion is expected to be ready
Monday.

Tax Trim Order
Hinted Illegal
By SAM EASTMAN

Arlington commemorative at
torney william j. Haffan in
Dictated today that a real estate
tax deduction ordered for
county apartment house own
ers is illegal.
At the same time. two county
board members attacked the
blanket tax relief order as un-
fair to other residents.
The Board of Equalization of
Real Estate Assessments has
directed that apartment house
owners be given a 4 per cent
assessment reduction to COM
pensate for vacancies. This
would mean a loss Of about
$9l 900 in anticipated revenue
on the 449 apartment houses.
Puts on Immediate Opinion
Today. Commemorative at
torney Hassan told the County
Board that he could not give
an immediate opinion on the
legality of the tax order. How
ever, Mr.. Hassan then COM
mented:
For the life Of me. I can't
see how it will do anything but
ease the pain. 1t certainly will
not equalize anything"
County Treasurer Colin c.
Macpherson appeared before
the board to ask for a legal
ruling on the assessment levy
directive. Mr.. Macpherson
pointed out that his ONCE is
now receiving the tax reduction
orders and his concern is
whether ne mas q legal right
to order them.
The treasurer told County
Board members that he had
checked the Virginia code and
found a case which seemed to
indicate" that the Equalization
Board should not make a uni
form reduction.
Calls Board Loaded"
After Mr.. Hassan said he
would have a legal opinion by
Tuesday night, one county
board member, Ralph Raul, at
tackled the assessment reduce
ton directive by q body loaded
with real estate people :"
Mr.. Kaul said that the
wholesale reduction to apart
ment house owners" was, in
effect. taking tax money from
the pockets Of other residents.

u. S. Workers Face
Parking Shortage
Construction
Taking Spaces
Near HEW

There's nothing but grief in
store for committing Federal
employees who want TO park
their cars near the Department
Of Health, Education and We'll
fare buildings in Southwest
Washington.
Now, a hefty 80 per cent of
the workers in that area drive
to the Office, and another %
per cent come as passengers in
someone else's cars.
But within the next few
years about two-thirds of the
parking spaces now available
most Of them on vacant lots
will disappear because of new
construction.
And by 1865, present plans
call for less than half the num-
Der Of parking spaces that will
be needed by the $1,000 Fed
eral employees expected to be
in the area by then.
Parking Surveyed
These sad facts showed I'D in
"a parking survey report on the
area given the National Capt.
tai Planning Commission yes
terday.
Staff members learned in
questionnaires from 5000 work.
ers in the HEW area that only
50 per cent use public transpor-
tation, including taxis. The
parking needs. figured from
those who drive, amounts to
one parking space for each 2.6
employees much higher park
ing demand than has shown UP
in other areas.
A good bit Of the parking now
is on the vacant lots and streets
of the Southwest redevelop-
ment area. These spaces will
dry up when redevelopment
construction begins.
The big problem, however,
will come with increased Fed
eral employees expected in the
area-and no plans to park
them. BY 1865. the report said,
there will be only 1900 park
ing spaces against an "abso-
lutte minimum" need Of $500,
even If there is q substantial
turn toward mass transit riding.
Garage Plan Suggested
The report proposed an ex-
tensive study Of the problem,
and suggested as one possibility
that a nonproft corporation
operate big garages built with
Federal funds.
A monthly parking fee Of So
on a nonpro1t basis, the re-
port said. could handle oper-
ating expenses and retire con-
struction costs Of a 1,050-space
garage over a 40-year period
if the Federal construction
funds did not require interest
payments.
The planning commission
took no action on the report,
but said it would welcome q
reaction" from HEW officials
who initially expressed concern
about the problem.
On another matter both the
commission and the National
Capital Regional Planning
Council approved a new site
in Virginia for a 300-employe
Air Force installation known
as "USAF-AFOAT-1."

as engaging in Office work."

different headquarters sites, all
in the Rockville area. But all
fell through.
The fourth approved site is

graph road in Fairfax County.

said, there are no bitches in
sight to this one.

Weighs
Views
Testimony Given
Before Committee

A House Judiciary subcom-
mittee was fully aware today
that defense attorneys consider
the Supreme Courts Mallory
decision q great step forward,
while law enforcement spokes-
men call it a threat to law and
order.
The conflicting views. which
ranged from what the Mallory
decision means to present po-
lice practices, were aired during
a full day Of testimony yes
terday.
The only point on which wit
nesses agreed was that Police
Chief Robert v. Murray is a
man of honor and integrity
The witnesses favoring tie
Mallory decision, including q
former policeman. were not
equally complimentary about
the rest of the force.
The witnesses also diverged
on whether the Mallory deci-
sion should be upset through
congressional action.
Under the Mallory decision.
the Supreme Court reversed
the rape conviction Of Andrew
r. Mallory on the grounds that
his confession should have
been excluded because it came
71a hours after his arrest.
Pending legislation would pro-
vide that delay alone would not
be SUFFICIENT to bar a volun-
tary confession.
Bill Held Remedy
George L. Hart. jr., chair
man of the District Council of
Law Enforcement. told the sub
committee that the pending
bill would be a proper remedy
without in any way jeopardiz-
ing a suspects constitutional
rights.
But Albert j. Ahern, jr.,
called the proposed legislation
"a backward step" and Bene-
dict F. Fitzgerald, jr.. termed
it IAN open invitation to the
third degree" Mr.. Ahern is
associated in criminal law
practice with James j. Laugh
lin. another witness at the
hearing, who urged the SUBJ
committee to go slow in writ
ing legislation.
Mr.. Fitzgerald, who said his
law practice was not devoted
exclusively to criminal work,
predicted that the proposed
legislation would be declared
unconstitutional as soon as a
case tried under it reached the
court. The other defense at
torneys unanimously agreed.
Mr.. Hart disagreed. He
pointed out that in the Mallory
decision the supreme Court
said it was interpreting the
intent Of Congress and no Con-
Stitutional question was in
volved. He declared that the
proposed legislation would not
infringe on Constitutional
rights, since confessions would
still be excluded if the court
considered the person was held
so long the delay induced the
confession.
Says Rights Abused
The former policeman who
testified in favor of preserving
the Mallory decision untouched
was James r. Scullen, who
served on the force from 1941
to 1947 and said he was at
one time a plainclothes detec-
tive in the Vice Squad. He
declared his seven years ex-
perience convinced him that
police needed the restraints put
on them by the Mallory decision
In order to protect individual
rights. He declared he had
been behind the locked doors
where suspects are questioned
and what happens is not al
ways right. not always just"
I'm not saying the Police
Department engages in nefar-
ious conduct" he said. but I
say there were cases where in
dividual rights were abused in
the jealous efforts to perform
