Bipartisan

Swim Pools
By . star Stan Writer

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 21.-Bi-
partisan sponsorship by the en-
tire Montgomery County dele
cation was assured today for a
bill that would exempt COM
munity swimming pool associa-
tions from State and county
real-eState taxes.
The Montgomery delegation,
including the lone Republican,
Gilbert GUIDE. agreed unani-
mously to introduce the bill. It
is expected to have strong sup
port from Prince Georges
County delegation.
A bill restricted to the spe-
ciflc counties was vetoed by
Gov. McKeldin on grounds Of
unconstitutionality. The new
bill would be Statewide in its
application.
The Montgomery delegation
also voted to reject o proposal
by the county bar association
calling for legislation that
would permit chartered coun-
ties to provide additional SAL
aries for circuit court judges.
The delegation also voted to
oppose providing for a referen-
dunn that would permit char
tered counties to elect their
council members within specific
council districts rather than on
a county wide basis as at
present.
The decision will mean that

Baltimore Hit
On Snow Plan

BALTIMORE. Feb. II R.-
Baltimore's snow cleanup job
was criticized today by several
contractors and q political OPP
ponent of Mayor Thomas
|D'Alesandro.
One contractor said his Arm
volunteered Monday to clean
up q critical highway but got
no reply until Wednesday.
There's no sense yelling at
each other about this" a third
contractor said, but there is
some 50 to So million worth of
equipment available. There is
no basic plan to carry out
something like this"
Other contractors said they
sat idle for a day or more walt
ing orders to clear critical
arteries, some of which they
had volunteered earlier to clear
without charge.

There are more than 1000
miles Of streets within the city
limits Of Baltimore" the Mayor
said. IF every man. woman
and child in the city and all
the equipment in Baltimore
we're employed to clean the
snow of these streets, 1t would

Job in two or three days OF

George A. Carter, director OF

ably came from contractors
whose prices for renting equip

William l.. Chilcote, head OF

the city had q legitimate answer
for all the complaints. More
