many other small businessmen
will be hurt because people are
going to get used to shopping
either in the District or in Vir
ginia," he warned.
1--we seen this happen before
in communities near the border
line of another community with
lower or no taxes on cigarettes, y
Goldman said.
This whole thing is getting
ridiculous mean this constant
super-impOsitiOn of one tax on
another" Goldman said. Event
ually they're going to kill the
goose that laid the golden egg"
he added.
He cited the case of differing
prices between Prince Georges
and Montgomery counties in
July, 1857, one year after Mont.
gomery county imposed a two
cent county tax on the sale of
cigarettes. While Montgomery
county sales remained level des.
.pite the constant increase in
population, he said, sales in
Prince Georges shot up 70 to 143
percent.
The Macke Vending Corp, the
largest vending machine opera.
tors in the metropolitan Wash.
ington area, is warily watching
and waiting for the county to
decide whether it will drop its
two-cent tax before effecting the
new tax.
Balfour Goldman, brother of
Nathan Goldman, is comptroller
for the vending concern.
1--WE are in a peculiar position y
Goldman related. 1--WE can't raise
the price of our filter tip, king
size cigarettes past 80 cents be-
cause nobody will buy them.
IF the county keeps its two
cents tax in addition to the new
tax, we will just have to adjust
the prices of our regular brands
to make up the loss" he said.
"AlsO," he continued, 1--WE have
the expensive problem of putting
odd-cents change into some of
our cigarette packages and the
problem will be wOrsened by
this new tax.
II can say this" he concluded,
Montgomery county is going to
be way off base if it sticks with
its present two-cent tax.
Gibson l. Wright, public rela-
tons director for Safeway Stores,
said that he expected the sale of
cigarettes in his company's Ia
stores in the county would drop
off considerably and cigarettes
are a big item with US"
He gave some comparative
costs of cigarettes per carton and
pack in the District and the
county. On July 1, he said,
Sideways cigarettes in Mont
gomery county will cost $40 a
carton for regular size compared
to $1.96 per carton in the District
The County Council may
amend or repeal the county's
two-cent tax on cigarettes if il
wishes.

State Survey
On Education
Is Launched

The Maryland Self-Survey Com
mission, a group appointed by
Governor Theodore R. McKeldin
to suggest Improvement in State
Government services, is starting
a statewide investigation of the
States educational system with a
goal of finding better and new
ways to teach scientific courses.
Formation of a subcommittee
of the Commission came after
Gov. McKeldin called for a sweep
ing inquiry to meet the challenge
of vast new field of science"
The Commission, headed by
Enos S. Stockbridge, is composed
of prominent laymen and state
department heads. 1t was formed
last year at the Governors re-
quest.
Gov. McKeldin said that he
would not hesitate to call a spe-
cial session of the General AS
sembly if he was informed by the
Commission that advances could
be made in teaching science
courses better. He asked Stock
bridge to keep him informed of
the subcommittee progress.
The need for the survey, Gov.
McKeldin said, was made neces-
sary by, more pronounced !.
and sudden emergence of a vast
new field of science that calls for
the best the schools can produce
in the way of intellectual excel
lence.
II believe much can be done
and certainly should be done to
improve education in Maryland
and prepare our youths for col
leges and universities and for the
great years and decades of un-
precedented progress that lie
ahead" the governor said.

BOGrd of Appeals
Board OF Appeals
Few in City Know
About Zoning Unit

The Board of Zoning APP
peals in Rockville performs
little known-but important
functions. Few of the city's
10000 residents are aware of
its existence.
But one day when the home.
owner decides to build a carport
or a back porch, or his church
might plan an addition, the plans
could come to screeching halt
because they don't comply with
the city's sideyard requirements
or, the amount of required off.
street parking.
Then our average citizen be-
comes gratefully aware of the
existance of a Board to whom he
can appeal for help.
From the layman's view, the
Board of Appeals is there to take
care of the "odd-balP' situations
that no general coming ordinance
can include without becoming too
cumbersome and unwieldy.
In technical language, the
Board is empowered to grant
special exceptions" or "variances
for exceptional narrowness or
shallownesS of shape of specific
parcels of property at the time
the coming ordinance was passed
or where strict application would
result in undue hardship to the
owner"
The Board also hears appeals
for building permits that have
been turned down by the build
ing Inspector or city staff. A
future duty will be to hear ap.
peals in regard to property at
fected by the master highway
plan which has not been passed
yet.
Limitations on its actions are:
it cannot change the use of land
or amend the coming ordinance;
relief cannot be given at the ex
pense of great damage to the
coming ordinance; and reversal
of staff decisions must be on the
basis of error proved.
Necessary Vote
A concurring vote of two mem
bers is necessary for favorable
decisions. Relief is not granted
for an indefinite time but has
approximately a six-month linn
itation on action.
The first Rockville Board OF
Zoning APPEALS was organized in
July, 1916, with John w. Hender
son, chairman; Atlee Burroughs
Ben ]. LANES, G. Dudley Ward
and Herbert Yocum, members.
In October, 1856, a new Board
of Appeals was set up under the
city's new coming ordinance with
membership cut down to three
appointed by the Mayor and
Council which is also the appeal
ate body for the Boards deci
sions.
John Rausch, chairman, Joseph
Allan and Mrs. Dorothy Haiti
wanger served as the new Board
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1958-02-13

When Rausch was elected to the
City Council this year, John D.
McElroy was appointed to the
vacancy and Allan took over as
chairman.
Mrs. Haltiwanger, the first and
only woman member, appointed
in July, 1855 and reappointed this
Fall for a three-year term, feels
that she represents the ordinary
citizens views of the compiled
tons and legal tangles arising
from coming regulations.
However, she counts on having
one member of the Board a
philadelphia lawyer" she says,
and relies heavily on the recon-
mendations of the Planning Com
mission and the advice of city
planner Robert Plavnick although
the Board is not obligated to fol
low either
Meets Saturday
If needed, the Board sits on the
first Saturday of each month
with its heaviest schedule dur
ing the Spring and Summer
months when construction is at
it's peak.
Its most important decision in
recent months was voting in
favor of a hotel rather than an
apartment hotel to be built by the
Sterling Construction Company
on North Washington Street.
Other decisions in Mrs. Haiti
wangers time were relaxing
parking requirements for Faith
United Church in Twinbrook and
the addition to the Rockville
Baptist Church.
She remembers the Reverend
Kenneth Vented of Faith United
as the most eloquent speaker to
appear before the board as he
made his appeal for a garden
and play area in place of eight
additional parking spaces.
His plea moved the Board to
grant his request but then so did
the more logical presentation of
the Baptists, as in both cases the
Board felt that the legal require
ments could be satisfied by park
ing off. the grounds.

Keep Politics Out

The fears led to a pact between
congressional leaders and the ad-
ministration to consult with each
other before putting the tax cut
ball into political play. The White
House and the Capitol kept in
touch as new developments re-
vealed the course of the economy.
The agreement apparently
worked, for last week when
President Eisenhower asked Con-
greSs to extend the current levels
of corporation income taxes and
excuses, Capitol Hill leaders went
to work to back the President.
The effort was Joined by both
Republicans and Democrats.
On Wednesday, the House
Ways and Means Committee ap-
proved the request by a 21-2 vote.
1t also rejected a move to lower
the excise tax on new cars. It
was expected that the committees
action would be backed in the
full House and-with less ease
in the Senate.
With reductions in corporation
and excise taxes apparently
doomed, it was regarded as highly
unlikely that any move for the
more difficult-negotiated income
tax cut could succeed.

Under Production

One factor behind the decision
for a moratorium on tax reduce
tion-despite the success of such
a measure in the preceding two
receSSionS-undoubtedly was the
existence of a unique feature of
the present recession: Underpro-
duction in the face of over
capacity. Such a situation,
along with signs of consumer re-
sistance inspired by something
other than rising prices, might
not necessarily mean that savings
from a tax cut would be fed back
into the economy.
The impact, then, of tax relief
on an already shaky Federal
budget, could be disastrous, many
experts in both the White House
and the Capitol feared.
1t was the increasing Federal
deficit tthis fiscal year it will run
to about SO billion that was
behind the Treasury's decision
last week to sell 81 billion worth
Of long-term bonds. The reve-
nue. will be used to pay for rising
Federal expenses and replace
some Of the tax money lost
because of the recession.
AS for the coming fiscal year.
beginning July /, the budget out
look was even more gloomy. Ex-
perts on the staff of the Joint
Congressional Committee on In
ternal Revenue predicted a fiscal
1859 deficit of $1l billion to sl3
billlon-a peacetime high.
