In any annexation, however,
Alexandria would have to COM

provements on land acquired.
The current value of the IL
schools in the areas considered
for annexation is estimated to
be $7.3 million. Bonded indebt-
ednesS for sewers in the area
is estimated to be $3.4 million.
When Mayor Leroy S. Bend

study last spring, he suggested
that it include a 80 square mile
area.

various city departments re-

However. consultants would
not be limited to them and, as
the study notes. the court judg-

could expand or contract them.
The recommendation that
the City Council consider an

action from Fairfax officials
who since have been attempt

further encroachments by
cities.

Three Phases in Study
The study is divided into
three phases. One summarizes
Virginia annexation laws, an
other concerns the territory last
annexed and the third explores
the new annexation targets.
1t estimates Alexandria an
nually spends about $2,330, 900
for services provided in the rs
square mile area previously
absorbed from the county. This
sum includes cost of servicing
debts incurred for capital i'm
provementS.
1t estimates the city each
year derives about $2,184, 900
from the area or about $146, 900
more than it spends.
One method of calculating
revenue and expenses indicated
q difference of $483,000.
However. the study notes: I'm
view of the smaller service
requirements (of the annexed
area). we are led to believe that
the true expenditure is some
where near the total revenues
derived from the area.
Those favoring further
efforts toward annexation prob
ably will seize upon this con-
clusion because the land taken
from Fairfax still is only about
SO per cent developed.

the common necessities of life.
Still other statutes include
drug addiction or habitual
drunkenness. All of these
grounds for divorce are seri-
GUS violations of marital OBJ
legations, and they are by no
means casually applied by
the courts of many States.
Moreover, most States will
not grant an absolute divorce
at once. Instead, they require
a temporary or interlocutory
decree for a period ranging
from three months to two
years. In essence, this is a
wait and see" period to allow
for reconciliation. Only when
the period elapSes without
any change of heart can the
decree become final.
The law regards marriage
as more than a contract be-

DEAR ABBY: In a recent

difference between a ceremo-

has a place in the wedding

shocked and embarrassed to
see the bride and groom go
into one of those clinches at

the brewer was busy on the
phone.

pert. Whats that?" he
shouted into the phone.
"Three million dollars for
that brewery site. I won't

and a half. Yes, you can
offer 5 million for the other
two buildings, but / million
is more than enough for the

Mrs. N. R. stands an excellent
chance of killing whatever
talent Betty has. This mother
has placed entirely too much
emphasis on Betty's abilities.
In effect, Mrs. N. R. is really

to be a superior production.
