Deduction Urged
By Trade Group

creases proposed by District

mems Associations, Inc. at a

curity & Trust Co. building.
Fifteenth street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue NV.
The federation also adopted
a resolution asking that park
ing meter rates be reduced

nickel.
The motion opposing the
seven steps suggested by Dis
trict budget aides to increase
tax revenues in the next fiscal
year was made by Norman s.
Bowles. jr.
John L. c. Sullivan submit
ted the resolution indorsing a
payroll deduction tax.
He explained that he favors
this type ofelevy because a lot
of people living in Virginia and
Maryland are now escaping
District taxes"
William Mackey, who made
the motion urging the nickel
parking meter rate said the
present l0-cent rate results in
less net revenue for the Dis
trict because it drives people
to the suburbs.

lions to any move that would

Master Plan
Altered for
Kensington

A proposed master plan for
development of Montgomery
County's Kensington- Wheaton
area was approved. with some
changes, by the Maryland-Na-
tional Capital ParR and Plan
ming Commission.
The plan now will be for
warded to the county council
for its consideration before
final approval and adoption as
a guide for future rezoning in
the Kensington- Wheaton area
A major change yesterday in
the plan drawn by the commits
sion's staff last March involves
the deletion Of a proposed civic
center on a 5-acre tract be-
tween the Our Lady of Good
Counsel High School and the
Equitable Life Insurance Co.
building on Georgia avenue.
The plan now calls for con-
struction of Office buildings
along Georgia avenue and
apartments on the rear portion
Of the tract.
The community center, which
would have included a library
was opposed by some residents
E of the area who said it might
jeopardize plans, already under
way. for construction of a Ii
brary on a tract at Georgia
and Hermitage avenues.
Another major change in the
original plan was the inclusion
yesterday by the commission Of
apartment coming for a Is
acre tract in the northwest
corner of the Connecticut
avenue-Viers Mill road inter-
section.
The commissioners left intact
most of the staff recommended
tons for apartment coming
east of the Wheaton business
district. The STATS recon-
mendation for an additional
49, acres in apartments was
strongly criticized during a
public hearing on the master
plan last June.
Wheaton businessmen then
requested still more land for
apartment development. Home
owners, principally those in the
Wheaton Forest subdivision,
asked that the proposed apart
ment area be reduced.
