reason, leadership on the Presi-

Senator Aiken, Republican Of
Vermont, also a member OF the

because of the backlog Of carry

Senator Long said it was his
impression that the $500 million

his January estimate is not a
real reduction" he said he un-
derstood it represented only a

placed on military items to be

Another new feature of the

leading part in past efforts to
cut foreign aid bills, said he
would like to limit the program
for the year starting July to
$2.5 billion, and emphasized he
meant actual spending rather
than new appropriations.
In long-range programs like
defense and foreign aid, Con-
gress ordinarily does not control
the amount actually spent in
any given fiscal year. 1t makes
a new appropriation each year,
but the spending figure is a
combination of new and old
money carried forward from
prior appropriations.
Spending Seen at $4.3 Billion
This difference between the
amount appropriated and the
amount spent within a fiscal
year is unavoidable because of
the time lag in building aircraft

Rockville
Says No to
Force

In spite of the appeals of the
Rockville Development Council
and the Montgomery County
Chamber of Commerce to en-
courage the location of million
dollar Air Force Administration
building in Rockville, the Mayor
and Council Tuesday moved to
uphold the city's Planning Com
missions opposition to the parti-
cular site proposed on Great Falls
Road.
The decision was unanimous as
was the councils emphasis on
welcoming the location of the in
stallation on a more suitable site
within Rockville than the pro
posed one which is in a residen-
tial-agricultural zone.
Councilman John Oxley said
that he was opposed to the "plac-
ing in one of the city's finest resi-
dental areas project that would
lead to commercial zoning."
Member Alexander Greene
questioned the inability of the Air
Force to locate on another site
recommended by the Planning
Commission 1000 feet along
Great Falls Road close to the in
tersection of the National Pike at
Seven Locks Road.
Another member, Wendell Tur-
ner, said that the area of the
rejected site was Ideal for q
community of homes in the
$4,000 to $4,000 range which
Rockville needs badly"
The Air Force project, Mr.. Tur-
ner felt, would discourage this
type Of development and because
Of its floating population" would
lead to further requests for apart
ment zoning and more shopping
centers."
All the members expressed the
hope that more favorable site
be found although Air Force of
ficials had indicated last week
that If the present site was dis
approved they would seek else
where in another locality.

Suit Attacks
Gas Station

Dyke Cullum of Germantown
filed mandamus proceeding Fri
day against the county, seeking
to stop construction of a gasoline
service station in front Of the
Atomic Energy Commission.
The county was given until

writ should not be issued.
Mr.. Cullum said the Interna-
tional Development Corp. OBJ
tanned permits for two gasoline
stations shortly before the per-
manent coming ordinance became
effective in 1856. He said the
corporation poured some concrete
as a sign it was starting con-
struction. Then construction
halted for months, he said.
Mr.. Cullum charges that con
struction of the filling station
violates the present ordinance
restricting the area to agricultur.
al-residential use. The station site
is at the intersection of State
Route 118 and New Route 240.
The petitioner also said the
corporation has not acted in good
faith in continuing its construc-
ton. He says that since the sta
ton location has been altered,
much of the work that has been
done will not be used in the pro.
posed final structure.
