Hyde Tells

About Study

The Joint Senate-House sub
committee studying urban prob

politan area is not trying to
"usurp local government" ac-
cording to Rep. Dewitt S. Hyde
(R-Md.)
Speaking before the Rockville
Chamber of Commerce last Tues
day, Hyde who is vice chairman
of the committee, emphasized
that the Washington Metropoli-
tan area is one Of the few large
urban areas of the country where
common metropolitan problems
have not received serious study.
Other areas such as Phlla.
delphia and st. Louis have inter
state and inter-county problems
and have undertaken to do some
thing about them with large out
lays of funds, the Congressman
added
The committee has already
sent out letters to all govern
ment agencies in the area seek
ing information on urban prob
lens such as transportation, edu-
cation, and water supply. 1t is

ed from Pinneberg residents.
However, Pinneberg has no wa

solved by eliminating billboards

The Juror over Russian Satel-

orientation towards the west, the

nan Glissman, he was wined,
lined and almost overwhelmed by
Pinneberg hospitality.
One highlight was his Satur-
lay morning visit to the high
school where he spent two hours
answering questions of an Eng
ish class about America.
The students eyed their Buerg-
,rmaster with reproach when
they learned that American chill
lren didn't have to go to school
on Saturday, the mayor said.
On a trip to the city's largest
cemetery, Hovsepian cemented
The friendship by placing wreath
on the monument for the 1939'45
war dead.
Tours of the three largest in
lustrial plants impressed the
mayor with Pinneberg's develop
ment in this direction. The larg-
est has recently been purchased
by a Plttsburg firm, the Rock.
well Manufacturing Company.
At the o. K. Chewing Gum,
American-owned factory, the
Mayor was delighted to learn that
gum is called "cowgumie" after
that animals cud-chewing habit
and the product is sent all over
the world at such unlikely places
as Tahiti.
Festivities in his honor included
dinners with the Buergermeister
and his "a councilmen, the volun.
teer fire department, and many
presentations of souvenirs and
bouquets of the roses for which
Pinneberg is famous.
A record on film of the activi--
ties was made for TV program
which will also include scenes
from Rockville's daily life.
Mayor Hovsepian's impressions
of Pinneberg convinced him that
the two cities have many similar
problems:
Q Building is going on at a
great rate. Out of $1,000 popula-
ton, 300 are still living in bar
racks, although the city has BULL
apartments as fast as possible.

railroad that runs through the

The reference preceded a letter
written in 1863 by a Rockville
resident, Dorothy Higgins, to her
mother about the Confederate
General J. E, B. Stuart.
We stated that Mrs. Higgins
was talking about Gen. Early, not
Gen. Stuart, and we are red-faced
about the mistake. 1t stemmed
from the fact that we didn't know
"Jeb" Stuart ever got as far south
as Rockville.
After being informed of our
mistake by the Montgomery Coun.
ty Historical Society, however, we
did some checking and found in
Lees Lieutenants" third volume,
by Freeman, that Stuart was in
Rockville on June %, 1863. He
captured a Union supply wagon
train as it entered the city from
the south.
Stuart later remarked, bitterly,
that if he hadn't been detained
with sending the supplies back to
Confederate troops, he could have
gone on to Washington and a
successful sortie. His remarks
were contained in a report titled
