Budget Highights

The following is attempt TO list in brief form
the highights of the $72 million budget presented
Tuesday by County Manager NJ L. Reese to the County
Council:
An increase in the basic tax rate of S213 TO
$2.57 would be necessary to support the budget as
presented.
It would be necessary to impose 35 percent
tax on business done by utilities here; otherwise an
other 10 cents would have to be added to the basic
county tax rate.
For the first time, the County Manager ignored
the school budget. Officials now think It might be
Illegal for him to cut 1t. Whatever cutting is done will
be done by the County Council
The suburban tax would remain at 10 cents
per 500 Of property.
The recreation tax would still be four cents per
$1oO
Q proposal was made by Reese that the coun-
ty should be allowed to audit the books Of both the
School Board and the Park and Planning Commission
A $4,000 economic study of the county and
appropriation of $4,000 for creation of 7-member
Industrial Development Commission were urged.
Construction of a central garage facility at
the County Farm" property Rockville was urged
as well as major expansion Of the countys IBM ma
chine setup for more efficient record keeping.
Included in the budget was $4,000 for pur-
chase of public golf course near Potomac Md.
Setting aside of $4,000 for further planning
OF two proposed dams on Rock Creek, near Rockville,
was urged.

Planners, Too!
Reese Asks
OfSchOOLs

The county manager
thinks county government
auditors should also audit
the books of the county
school board and the Park
and Planning Commission.
Up to now. the county govern
ment has had its books audited
by one firm and the two other
agencies have each had their
books audited separately.
Because the County Council
is the appropriating authority
over both the school board and
the Park and Planning Com
mission, Reese thinks the Coun-
ell ought to know exactly how
the money given them was
spent.
The suggested policy, Reese
emphasized, rs In no way TO be
interpreted as questioning the
integrity Of these agencies" He
just thinks it's good admdnistra-
tive procedure.

board chairman, said she could

Rockville
Heads Add
.oBudget

Mid-year review by the
Rockville Mayor and Coun-
Gil found the 1889 budget
in reasonably good shape.
At the recommendation of City
Manager Walter A. Scheiber the
budget was increased in seven
items by the council, meeting
Tuesday night.
Appropriations for q Teen
Center, to be constructed In Ell.
wood Smith Park, was increased
from $4,000 to $4,000 to meet
the E. J. Smith Construction
Company bid. 1t is expected that
this bid will be accepted at the
March 10 meeting.
Largest addition to the budget
was $4,000 appropriation for
a midtown sewer rehabilitation
program. This project will re-
place and augment the original
sewage system in the business
district of Rockville.
A $500 appropriation for a
traffic light was authorized for
Hungerford dr.. at East Middle
lane.
The council voted an increase
in salary for City Engineer John
Gray, from $6725 to $500.
The Council also approved ap-
preparations for:
. Paving of Twinbrook pky. in
front of the Baptist Church
property, at the cost Of $3.50.
. A lighting system for the
Civic Center Parking Lot and
access road at the cost of 3d.
600.

four months of the current fis-
cal year.

concentrations was a SIS, 500

Our NeW Look /.

Things are happening fast at the Sentinel these
days!
You have probably already noticed our new look
this week. Most of it is because the Sentinel was
printed for the first time its own big, new press
installed at offices, 215 E. Montgomery ave.
Rockville
On the old press we could print only eight pages
of the Sentinel at time at speed of about 5000
copies in one hour. Our press will print 16 pages
at once at speed of about $4,000 copies in hour.
We had simply outgrown the old press.
The rest of our new look is accounted for by the
new nameplate at the top of the page The old one
served the paper well but thought it time for
the Sentinel to take bright, fresh appearance and
the namepate was designed to accomplish that.
The Sentne-lke Montgomery County which we
trying best to serve-s growing fast We hope
that as we grow we will be able to serve our readers
and our advertisers that much better.

Reese Leaves
School Funds
Plea Intact

The biggest tax rate in
crease in county history
would be needed to support
t h e mammoth $72 million
budget proposal handed to
the County Council Tuesday
by County Manager Melvin
L. Reese.
In presenting the budget,
Reese said a tax hike of 80
cents would be needed to
provide enough funds to
meet the requirement that
the budget be a balanced one.
AT present, the rate u $2.1s
per 500 of assessed valuation.
The needed increase to support
the budget as presented would
bring the basic rate to $2.57, he
said.
To avoid the necessity Of IN
creasing the rate by still another
10 cents, Reese asked approval
of a new 3.5 per cent tax on
business done by utilities such
as Potomac Electric Power Co.
and Chesapeake and Potcmao
Telephone Co.

the manager declined 70 pruNsss

ly as 1t was given TO him By
the School Board,
The reason, Reese said, was
growing doubt about Legality Of
his altering the budget IN any
way, in view of the fact that
State law requires the school
board to submit It's budget to
county heads.
School heads greeted the an
nouncement with unconcealed
glee as they have, IN the past,
felt that action by the manager
on their budget was unnecessary
as well as adrninistratively nm
sound.
Accordingly. the County Cour-
ell Is now weighing the county
educators request for a budget
Of about $50 million.
Reese asked for about 81S.E
million for county operating
funds and about $2.3 million for
new county construction, other
than for schools.
The manager said that Of the
total Decent tax hike required
for the budget, 37h would be
needed for the increased school
budget. Only one and one-half

United in
Milk Fight

A Montgomery County di-
rector of the Maryland-Vir-
ginia Milk Producers Asso-
citation said this week that
county producers are sup
porting the Association in
its current squabble with
Chestnut Farms (Sealtest)
Dairy.
"As far as I know" said F.
Upton Gladhill, of Damascus,
county producers are behind
the Association 100 percent"
Chestnut Farms last week an
nounced its intention of pur-
chasing its milk from indepen-
dent producers rather than
from the dairy farmers COOP
erative.
Chestnut Farms in the past
has absorbed about half of the
total supply of the Association,
which in turn has handled about
80 percent of all milk produced
in the Washington area.
III their present campaign to
break loose from the cOOpera.
tive is successful, Chestnut
Farms spokesman say, they will
be able to market their milk al
q savings Of about two cents a
quart to the consumer.
AS of Tuesday, the dairy had
not yet been successful in WOO
ing any Association members
into selling directly to Chestnut
Farms, but had begun purchas-
ing from Independent producers
not affiliated with the Associa-
ton.
Gladhil said he is not con-
WINGED that the Chestnut Farms
action could result in lowe r
prices to the consumer. But he
warned that it could result in
the marketing of a lower
quality of milk in Maryland.
Milk handled by the Associa-
ton must meet rigid District of
Columbia standards. MIX
which is neither produced nor
sold within the District need
conform only to less strict u. S.
Public Health standards.
BY purchasing non-Associa-
ton milk, Chestnut Farm main.
tains, it could cut costs by elm
mating the necessity of meet
ing the District standards.
Many of the District require
ments are "unrealistic" and
have no relation to quality, ac-
cording to a Chestnut Farm S
spokesman.
w. B. Hooper, general. man.
ager of the cooperative, said
Monday the Association will go
to court if necessary to block
any move by Chestnut Farms
to sell milk in Maryland which
does not meet District stand
ards but which is bottled in the
District.
Chestnut Farms is one of six
diaries, all doing their bottling
in the District, which supply the
great bulk of milk consumed in
Maryland and Virginia.
Company officials say their
move. is aimed at taking the
operation out of the red (the
dairy lost 100000 in 1858, they
say), while maintaining the
same quality of milk.
