Water Service
Plans Fought

Plans of the City Of Falls
Church to extend its water
service area may be challenged
in the courts by the Fairfax
County Water Authority.
Notice of this was given the
city council in a letter sent
yesterday by Samuel E. Neel,
authority chairman, who said
such an expansion would be
contrary to the public in
terest."
The council voted Monday
night to practically double its
service area in Fairfax County
which almost surrounds the city
on three sides.
Mr.. Neel said the proposal
encroaches on the rights of the
county authority to serve the
area.
Specifically. Mr.. Neels letter
requested the city to withdraw
plans to extend water lines
along Gallows road, including
the projected Fairfax County
Hospital. Mr.. Neel said the
county utility group is pre-
pared and committed to serve
this area.
OF the overall expansion
plans. the Neel letter charged
the city is attempting to make
a profit at the expense of coun-
ty residents.
Earlier, Falls Church re-
jected a proposal from the au-
thority last December that the
county group be allowed to tap
water mains leading to the city
from the Potomac River. Falls
Church contended the bond is
sue to finance the project
would be adversely affected.
The authority declares the
city's action deprives future
customers Of both areas SUBJ
stantial savings in rates.

Cheese Becomes
Issue in Milk War
H
SeuItest Says
Coop Prices
Hurt Company

Chestnut Farms (SealtesD
Dairy officials said today they
may buy cottage cheese rather
than produce 1t in a move to
counter the abandonment Of
the classified price plan by the
Maryland Virginia dairy farm
ers' cooperative.
The cooperative yesterday
announced 1t would now sell all
milk at a fiat price of $5.95
per hundredweight. Previously.
Chestnut Farms was buying
milk destined for cottage cheese
and other byproducts from
the cooperative at about $3.06.
The move also reduced the
price Of milk sold for bottling
from 1852 to $5.95 for all
diaries.
Edgar Brawner, general man
ager Of Chestnut Farms, ad-
mitted the new nat price would
hurt his dairy, but said he did
not think it would affect the
consumer.
Firm May Buy Cheese
He said Chestnut Farms is
exploring the possibility Of
buying the cheese, and is also
looking for another source Of
milk to be used in Its manu-
facture.
Abandonment Of the price
plan, latest move in the CO.
operatives battle with Chest
nut Farms, will also affect the
the dairy's subdealerships in
Maryland and Virginia. Chest
nut Farms had been buying
milk destined for them at $5.19.
Mr.. Brawner said those SUBJ
dealerships may now have to
seek another source Of supply
in order to compete in those
areas. They are on the Eastern
Shore of Maryland, in the Ha-
gerstown area and Virginia.
William B Hooper, general
manager Of the Maryland-Vir-
ginia Milk Producers ASsocia-
ton, said abandonment of the
price plan would not materially
affect other diaries dealing with
the cooperative.
He said other diaries had a
better balance" of sales Of
