Rural SIums

An ordinance aimed at wiping
out rural slums is under con-
sideration by Fairfax County.
Such an ordinance could be
expected to stir strong opposi-
ton among those who fear in
tegrated Federal housing.
DR.. Harold Kennedy, county
health director, drafted the
ordinance and submitted it to
the Board and County Supervi-
sors. The supervisors have sent
it to officials in the building,
fire, public works, legal and
planning departments for study.
The problem of substandard
housing has caused increasing
concern in the county as re-
sidential development took up
more and more previously rural
land. Small settlements of
shacks and deteriorating build
ings in some sections Of the
county stand next to new sub
divisions.
Deficiencies Spotted
County officials have been
tightening up, for about a year
on substandard housing condi-
tions. Flophouses and unsani-
tary motel rooms have come
under attack from health Of
ficials.
Overcrowded, rundown houses
with poor sanitary facilities and
no adequate water supply also
have been singled out. The
county presently has no regu-
lations governing the number
of persons who can live in a
house.
Landlords are not required
to provide heat, electricity,
water or modern toilet facilities.
Installation of heating and
electricity is outlined in detail
under present ordinances but
installation is not required.
Alexandria adopted a housing
code last year and Arlington
County is working on a code
to set up some minimum stand
ards for rental and other prop
critics.
Areas Of Concern
The ordinance drafted by DR..
Kennedy is the first in Fairfax
County to detail minimum
healthful living conditions. 1t
is felt it would offer tenants
some protection when renting
a place to live.
Among the areas singled out
for concern are sections near
Baileys Crossroads, Clifton,
Falls Church, Chantilly, Lorfax,
Bucknell, Gum Springs and
Beulah road.
The proposed ordinance would
correct conditions in these
areas. With the new law, the
county could "rehabilitate some
existing dwellings and demolish
those that are found unsafe or
unsanitary."
The ordinance also would
require landlords to provide
water and sewerline connec-
tions where they are available.
Landlords would be forced to
meet specifications on sinks,
toilets and hot and cold water
installations.
Sanitary pit privies or septic
tanks would be permitted where
no public sewer line was avail
able.
Adequate heating of "all
habitable rooms" would be
specified and landlords would
be required to maintain a mini
mum 68-degree temperature,
except between midnight and
5 am.
Requirements for window
screening and ventilation are
set up in the ordinance. 1t also
notes that every dwelling unit
would have to contain at least
$50 square feet of floor space
for the first occupant and at
least 10 square feet for each
additional occupant. The only
regulation now in effect in the
county is one which sets the
minimum size of q room in
which persons may sleep 7 by
10 feet.
Rooming houses would be
licensed and required to meet
standards on floor space, bed
linen, towels, bedding, exits and
sanitary facilities.

LENTEN THOUGHTS,
ONE MANS BURDEN

day came a man who YEARLY took
his cross from his shoulders and
placed it on the floor.
And what can I do for you ?"
the cross maker asked him. "I
want to exchange my burden"
said the man.
This one is too heavy for me to
carry. 1 stagger under the load"
Very we'll" replied the cross
maker. Take your pick of all these
crosses and see which one suits you
best" So the man gladly set out
trying them on. The first was very
light for a moment or two =
but as he walked about testing
it, he concluded that it wouldn't
do, for soon it became heavier
than his old one. So he tried an
other, and another, and another,
until at last he found one lighter
than all the rest.
81 can bear this one easily" he
told the cross maker" May I have
it?"
Very well" the cross maker
answered. but that is the one you
brought in with you" - They Tell

Montana, A Starting Point?
Road Program
To Be Probed
By House Group

A special House committee headed
by Congressman John A. Blatnik ID
Minn.) will soon begin an investiga-
tion of the al ,000-mile super-highway
construction program. Blatnik said the
probe "will be thorough.
Under the program, the federal
government is giving state govern
ments the huge sum of $36 billion
to spend on roads and in buying the
land for them. This offers vast temp
tations and opportunities for graft.
One land purchase scandal in Indiana
has been partially uncovered, but SO
far the surface has scarcely been
scratched, it is believed.
State governments generally are
more careful when they are spending
their own money and have to account
for it to their own taxpayers, but in
this program more than 80 cents of
each dollar is "other peoples money"
taken from taxpayers of all SO states.

hour meeting he said that he had
messages" from strikers that in
quired as to what the union was doing
to help its members.
Barney Rask of the Butte Miners
Union No. took him TO task by
responding that perhaps he was
also receiving messages" from
company officials.
Salvas explained that the union has
traditionally had low dues and did not
build up strike funds because the
money was usually spent on COM
munity projects.
The other half of the union not
on strike has taken a five dollar
strike assessment. The Canadian and
eastern section of the union will for
ward the money to this area but the
soup kitchens and distress cases eat
up funds almost as quickly as they
appear. Friends of the union have also
helped, but the $40 bill from the
corner grocery, the five from the
druggist soon vanish. The strike is
well into its second MONTHS.

A Senate Select Committee study

USFS Plans
Developing
Quake Area

A Forest Service task force has
started developing plans for the pres
ervation and development of the
Canyon, according to Charles L.
Tebbe, regional forester at Missoula.
This task force approach follows
announcement by the Secretary of
Agriculture on August 80, 1859, that
an Earthquake Geological Area will
be established under Secretary's regu-
lations to embrace parts of the Gala
tin and Beaverhead National Forests
where the most severe shocks oc-
Cured the night of August II.
Plans call for the area to include
the giant slide which damned the
Madison River, and many of the faults
and fissures, as well as the new natur-
al lake formed behind the slide. The
area has unique scientific and general
interest.
The task force is composed of for
esters, engineers, hydrologists, geol-
ogists and recreation specialists. They
will complete extensive Investigations
and plans designed to protect the area
for it's scientific value and still make
it accessible to the general public
through installation of necessary ia
cilities.
Harold E. Anderson, Forest staff
man from the Kaniksu National For
est at Standpoint, Idaho, has been de-
tailed to the regional office to head
the task force. He has had lands and
recreation experience in Idaho and
Alaska and served as research project
leader in Alaska. He is forestry
graduate of the University of Wash
ington and holds masters degree
from Yale University. He will work

diverse activities such as research,
the Forest Service, the Soil Conser-
walton Program, the Soil Bank Pro-
gram, the Rural Electrification Ad-
ministration and the Farmers Home
Administration, to mention only a
few. The second largest contributor
is the Department of Defense with
the increased Air Force activities at
Malmstrom Air Force Base at Great
Falls and the Glasgow Air Force Base.
The department is planning new Army
National Guard armory construction
at Butte and Plentywood.
"The Department of Commerce is
also among the top three big spenders
in Montana. A large part of their ex-
penditures is centralized in the Bu-
reau of Public Roads and it's work
on the construction of the Interstate
Highway System which is now we'll
under way in the state. Also the Bu-
reau of Census activities will increase
during the current fiscal year in view
of the preparations and work needed
for tabulating the new 1860 Census.
"The first session of the seth Con-
gress has been busy Congress, we
worked hard and, Senator Murray,
Congressman Lee Metcalf and Leroy
Anderson, and I, were fortunate in
obtaining some big items for Mon

penditures indicates that Montana re-
ceived slightly more than twice the
amount that the state contributed in
the form of income and excise taxes"
The balance of Mansfield's report
follows:
'In fiscal year 1859 which came to
close on June 80, 1859, Montana
and its residents received $286,288,-

of $52, ,414 over the previous fis-
cal year. According to early estimates
an additional $11,020,115 will be
channeled into the state during the
current fiscal year, 1860.
"In fiscal year 1858 the Treasury
Department collected $138, 100000 in

The Powell county welfare COM

ACM workers who live in Deer
