lothers so little, but such being
the ways of the world, we can only
Ido our little bit by loving and
Igiving as much as we can.

Overriding of THAT Veto

Allied Civic Group Monday
night urged the Montgomery
County delegation to the General
Assembly to override the Gov.
errors veto of a bill providing a
$500 increase in the state mini.
mum salary for school teachers.
More than 200 ACG members,
at a meeting at the new Park &
Planning auditorium in Silver
Spring, also approved resolutions
for increased funds for improve
ment and expansion of facilities
and increased faculty salaries for
five state teachers colleges, and
for legislation to establish a COM
mission to survey aid for educa-
ton.
The teacher pay bill, vetoed by
the Governor, proposed a three
cent tax on each pack of ciga-
rettes to finance the salary in
crease. The bill would not raise
teachers salaries in this county,
but would bring more money into
the county since the equalization

Points offered in opposition by
nearby residents were: increase

the site would be ideal for a

/ One lone TWinbrooker who
spoke in favor of the rezoning
was Leighton Dudley, past presi-
dent Of Tea, who said that since
his organization had not opposed
the shopping center across Viers
Mill which in his opinion changed
the neighborhood, he "in good
conscience had to speak in favor
of the petitioner"
The Planning Commission rec
commended granting the first Pc
tition under the newly created Of

Only three nearby residents op-
posed this rezoning as undesir-
able while number of property
owners including the Christ Epis-
copal Church and the Rockville
Christian Church were in favor of
the office building coming.
This was the second petition
within year for this tract. The
first one for commercial coming
was denied after strong protests
of adjacent property owners that
it would change the character OF
the ,neighborhood.

TlUinbrOOk Residents
Again Fight Res0ning

Twinbrook residents crowded
City Hall Tuesday for their third
fight in four years to keep the
southeast corner of Atlantic ave-
nue. and Viers Mill road from go.
ing commercial.
The Mayor and Council took
under advisement two petitions
for rezoning; the first, the Twin
brook one by P. ]. Hannah for
IL acres OF residential land; and
the second, by David E. Belts and
James B. Davis, from residential
to office building zone of 81, 148
square feet on jefferson between
Washington and Adams streets.
The hottest contest was the
Twinbrook petition which was
also opposed by the Rockville
Planning Commission on the
grounds that there was no need
for additional commercial area In
the community; that Atlantic
avenue must be maintained as
the boundary for commercial zon-
ing; and that the property had
other uses.
Belts, acting as attorney for
Hannah In the first hearing,
maintained that the two shopping
centers across from the tract on
Atlantic and on Viers Mill had
changed the character of the
neighborhood since the second Pc
tition was denied in 1855. The
first one was denied in 1854.

when he suggested that stores on

Henry Redkey, representing
