ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 26.-T h e
Prince Georges County delega-
ton introduced a bill last night
in the Maryland Legislature to
levy SIS tax on each $1,000 of
real estate sold in the county. .
The measure is expected to
yield an estimated 81 million,
which the county commissioners
say they need to balance the
budget for the next fiscal year
without raising the basic coun-
ty real estate tax rate of $2.l5
per 500 of assessed valuation.
A new transfer tax would be
paid by the buyer unless an
agreement with the seller pro-
vides otherwise. in addition to
the State recordations stamps
the purchaser is now required to
buy and the $1.10 per $1,000 the
seller is required to purchase in
Federal recordation stamps.
The new tax would mean an
extra 500 in fees the purchaser
would have to pay on a $4,000
house.
Houses Passes PEPCO Bill
The House last night enacted
a bill introduced by Senator
Edward S. Northrop to exempt
from county and State property
taxes the dam that PEPCO pro-
poses to build on the Potomac
River near Dickerson, Md.

Bill to Tax Realty Sales
In County Introduced

The Montgomery County
Democratic Senator has said the
bill is part of the agreement his
county made to induce PEPCO to
build a proposed 500 million
power-generating plant in Mary
land, rather than on the Vir-
ginia side of the river. The
dam would be part of the plant,
supplying river water to cool the
generators.

power to set speed limits on
county roads. which was kicked
around in the Senate all last
week. finally was recommitted to
the Senate Judicial Proceedings
Committee last night. The bill
passed the House two weeks age
without whimper, but hit a
snag in the Senate when some
Senators claimed it would des-
troy Statewide uniformity on
speed limits.

recommitted. which probably
means it is dead for this session

that area. The most prevalent
shortcomings were in the field
of plumbing.
Only preliminary surveying has
been completed in the second
half of the pilot area, and in
formative pamphlets are being
prepared and meetings planned
with people Of the community
preparatory to beginning house
by house inspections.
Preparatory discussions also
will include other District agen-
cies on the subject of improve
ment of public facilities, such as
highways and alleys.
Mr.. Dulin also recommended
to the committee that a small
portion of Southwest Washing
ton not included in the redevel>.
opment programs there, between
Canal and South Capitol streets
south of M street down to Buzz
yards Point. be designated q
code enforcement area.
The area contains some 345
buildings including

The program got started in
September. 1855. and SUISSE
quently it was discovered the
pilot area was too large. The
area was split. and the housing
division now is ready to go ahead

This section includes about

and Sixteenh streets.
Mr.. Duiin said this area has
been split into four sectors
Rather than taking a year to
inspect and re-inspect the area,
as was done with the first halt
of the pilot area, the aim will be
to get one sector done in three
months. he said.
In the first half. 2,496 premises
were surveyed. No violations
were found in 324 of those, and
compliance was obtained in 1,189
cases. Work is continuing in

Five Montgomery Bills
This first measure would pro-
hibt any persons. partnership
firm or corporation from having
any direct or indirect interest in
more than, one liquor license.
The Montgomery delegates
introduced five companion bills
aimed at repeating the suburban
district of that county, which is
a special area created 80 years
ago to tax suburban residents
for municipal type services, The
county council has asked the
district be abolished because
special services are no longer
necessary. it claims. since urban

lStratlon official, Norris q. Har-
ing, who said that prospects for
a Federal grant have recently
frightened.
Mr.. Haring, co-ordinator of
services for exceptional children,
suggested application be made
with the United States Office of
Education for $4,000 over a
three-year period.
About $4,000 a year would
have to come from local funds to
finance the program, he said.
Further Study Urged
The dissenting vote was cast
by Mrs. Helen Lane, who said
she was deeply interested in
the children involved but that
there is an overall educational
picture to be considered.
The proposal, Mrs. Lane de-
clared, requires further study
Among the questions she raised
before the vote was whether
Arlington is doing enough for
the gifted child.
According to Mr.. Haring, there
are about $50 emotionally dis
turbed in the county's public
schools.
Under his proposal, some of
the most severely disturbed chill
dren in grades two through five
would find themselves in expert
mental classes of eight or ten
children each. while others
would be placed in controlled
groups for evaluation purposes.
Aid for Handicapped
In another matter, the board
took under study a plea for
financial aid to the cooperative

School for Handicapped Chill
dren.
Enrolled at the school, which
holds classes in the Arlington
Unitarian Church. are children
who are mentally retarded, and
youngsters suffering from brain
damage or cerebral palsy. There
are 10 children from Arlington
homes.
Representatives of the school
said they hoped the School Board
in the near future will take over
the responsibilities for training
and educating these children.
The current request was for at
least as much as would be need
ed if the children were normal
and were attending public
schools.
Request Supported
The request drew support from
Robert Reynolds. chairman of
the Citizens Committee for
School Improvement. who said
his group feels that education
of mentally and physically
handicapped children should be
financed at public expense.
Barnard Joy, School Board
member, said he was greatly
disturbed over emphasis being
placed on the cost of educating
a handicapped child. If for no
other reason, he said, it is eco
nomically wise to develop max
imum ability so that the children
will not be lifelong dependents
upon society.
Mr.. Joy called for a check
into the legality of granting the
budget request and for a study
into the public responsibility of
the schools in this matter.
