Equal Housing Plan
Deserves Discussion

Mention the subject of integrated housing
In Montgomery County and blood pressures
go up An area that accepted school integra-
ton with virtually no argument is probably
goinG to hold lengthy debate on the question
of whether Negroes should occupy homes be-
side whites.
A lively debate of the subject appears in
this weeks Sentinel as result Of a column
nists criticism of the Unitarians for launch.
Ing the great debate at a public meeting Oc-
tober 26.
Many in Montgomery County feel they
can afford to be complacent in their views
about many subjects-not just integrated
housing. There are the prejudiced who are
economically Independent and there are those
with deep-South attitudes. Many county resi-
dents fall into these two categories.
The core of the problem is a genuine fear
on the part of many that when Negro family
moves into neighborhod, property values
will decline. They Immediately envision their
life savings going up in smoke.
In presenting the New Jersey builder who
specializes in equal housing" the Unitarians
and groups that Joined with them performed
public service. Endorsement of equal hous-
Ing" was not part of the move although many
members of the sponsoring groups do believe
enthusiastically in the equal housing" prin.
ciple The main idea was to provide a public
forum for the builder and to stimulate public
discussion on what is obviously question
that should be discussed.
A quick glance at even the headline of
recent newspaper story should convince

Montgomery Countians that the time may
well have arrived when we can no longer pre-
tend this is not problem. The headline told
how 76 per cent of school children in the Dis
trict are Negro. Only one of every four pupils
In the District is now white.
At present, Negroes are spreading out
from the heart of Washington in concentric
circles. Are countans going to wait until
the spreading Negro population hits the Dis
trict Line before even considering the devel
opment? Or should it be discussed now?
The New Jersey builder has come up
with plan worth considering. His procedure
is to build controlled occupancy subdivisions
that are mostly white. The whites when they
buy the house clearly understand they are
moving into a raciallymixed community
Whites who do not like the idea can avoid the
community altogether, staying in the same
solidly white communities that exist today
Hence, the builders plan rather than hurting
the housing segregationists could actually
help them. They would know what areas
were "safe" for them and which were "un-
safe" Under the present system, these people
are going to have to move, progressively,
from Bethesda, to Rockville, to Frederick, to
Hagerstown, to Cumberland to remain safe"
The builder says his actual experience
with this new type of subdivision has been
good. He was frankly surprised at the mum.
Der of whites who did not mind living in
new subdivision with Negroes of approximate
ly the same cultural and economic level. We
hope there is more-rather than less-public
discussion of this plan that could help ease
the coming situation

Board of Education Member)

This year the Board of Education of Mont
gomery County will spend over one million
dollars for the purchase of school sites. Sew
eral years ago in very important move, a
revolving site acquisition fund was estab-
lished. This fund enables your Board of Edu-
cation to acquire sites in advance of the need
and to be reimbursed as the new schools are
built. Last year this fund was increased to
81 million. Its use is resulting in savings to
the county
An objective of the board should be to
secure all secondary sites several years ahead
and to secure elementary sites at least year
in advance of the need. II this is done, we
then will have ample time to resort to con-
demnatiOn and we won't have to face the prob
lem Of paying higher price for a site In
order to avoid delaying the opening Of an ur-
gently needed new school, The board does
not have an adequate staff to do this now.
When the staff in this department is in
creased, we should realize maximum savings
from the use Of the revolving site acquisition
fund.
Even with these savings, sites will still
represent sizeabe annual expenditure. This
expenditure, like every other one, should be
examined to determine whether 1t can be re-
duced without curtailing the educational pro.
gram.
During the past year, three sites were
donated to us; IL were purchased at nego-
tiated price based on their appraised value;
six are being condemned Our staff is cur.
rently negotiating on IL other sites.
l am told that some school systems have
been able to reduce school site costs because
developers are required to set aside adequate
school sites before preliminary plot plans can
be filed for approval. This is currently re-
quired here for roads, but not for schools.
Should some similar program be required for
schools? have no pat answer to this ques-
ton. but feel that it is one which merits care

Many Don't Know
We've Been Took
County Law

There are little spaces in both community
and personal lives where the law does not
reach. In these interstices man, being free
from the restrictions of the law, may weave
web, sometimes good and sometimes bad.
study of the evolution of the law gives
some indication about mans progress. In the
age of Justinian the law said 'let the seller
beware" OF course, Justinian was pagan and
was not enriched with the ideals of good
Christian hard bargaining.
The law of the Roman Empire in this re-
spect uniformly held that if the goods were
not of the quality that the seller represented
them to be, the buyer not only could recover
the difference between the value of the goods
as delivered and their value as represented
but, in addition, could recover twice that
amount The basis of the law which put the
burden of being honest upon the seller rested
upon the realistic belief that the seller was
the person who knew the quality of the article
sold
With the advancement of civilization the
high moral tone of the aforesaid legal maxim
was changed to "let the buyer beware" This
modern law permits the seller to conceal the
defects of the article sold and places the risk
of the purchase upon the buyer. The game
manship implicit within this type of dealing
has recently been illustrated by that remark.

More School Site Planning Is Need

1t Is well known that the value of land
and the school needs increase in proportion to
tne number of houses or apartments that can
be built per acre. OF course the potential
coming classification must always be taken
into account in valuing land However the
big increase in value usually occurs when the
land is actually zoned for denser development.
Sometimes it is necessary to purchase a site
for school after it has been so rezoned. Per-
haps there would be no need for another
school site according to the population proiec.

Long range plans for the county's develop

1t is doubtful that either of them had been
subjected to higher education or the modern
doctrine of "let the buyer beware" But, they
knew that the match was rugged. They also
knew that the viewer knew the match was
rugged, and therefore the buyer was not de-
frauded.

static emcee, who seemed to turn red white
and blue all over, and appeared to be about
to die with joy in the hope of glorious resur.
rection when the answer turned out to be
correct.
The viewer did not know that this match
was rugged, and in this respect the two wres-
ting pithecanthropus robustus were honest
angels compared to Dan Voren's actions in
selling his birthright for mess of prune-pit-
puce lipstick.
The upshot of the whole farce is that the
law will not prosecute Dan Voren or the lip
stick manufacturer for their fraud in gaining
the good will of the American public in order
to sell product to naive and gullible people.
The reason that there probably will be no
prosecution of these frauds is that the Ameri.
can public has become so accustomed to being
duped by fraudulent statesmen that it has lost
the ability to distinguish between the truth
ana 1alsehood, and even today is not quite
sure that 1t has been defrauded.
