City officials late yesterday

Others are expected to seek re-
lief from the furlough threat
on the House floor.
District officials said that
many more workers than the
minimum 1.474 probably would
be affected.
The 1,474 figure Is the num-
Der of employees who would be
laid of at any one period dur

attempt to spread the burden
over additional workers so that
no single employee would be
laid off for the full three

The discovery Of the 26-inch
deep grave by two teen-age
boys, about eight miles west of
Annapolis at 2 pm. yesterday,
solved one facet Of the mystery
of the two missing members of
the Inflated jackson family of
Apple Grove, Va. The killer
has not been found.
First Bodies Found March 4
Carroll Vernon Jackson, 20,
and his other daughter, Janet.
1l2, were found March 4 lying
in a brush pile covered with
leaves and dirt, in a wooded area
near Fredericksburg, Va.
The Maryland grave is slight
ly more than 100 miles from
the Jackson's home in Apple
Grove. Va. and about 10 miles
from Fredericksburg, where the
bodies of Mr.. Jackson and
Janet were found.
Mr.. Jackson had been shot
through the head and blud-
geoned about the face and neck,
probably with the pistol used
to kill him. The little girl also
had been struck on the head
but it appeared to medical ex-
aminers that she may have
died of exposure.
Chief Wilbur Wade of the
Anne Arundel County police
said the mother and daughter
were found yesterday by John
Boiin, II, and John Paddy, Is.
Of Gambrills. in the Chester
field section. The site is in a
desolate area south of Mount
Tabor road.
Bodies Taken to Baltimore
The bodies arrived at Balti-
more City Morgue at tao pm.
DR.. Fisher Immediately began
an autopsy. However, iden-
tifcation was quickly made, ac-
cording to the medical exam
if1er's office.
The woman's clothing and
that Of the child matched the
description of the garb worn
by the jackson family when
they disappeared. Mrs. jack
son was wearing a blue coat
and a blue dress. Susan Ann
was wearing a red and striped
dress with a fancy pettlc1at
and a tan coat.
Police said the bodies APP
peared to have been in the
grave about three weeks. They
were heavily encrusted in dirt.
Boys Playing In Woods
The two boys told police they
were hunting in the woods with
BIB guns in the isolated area
of Route 30l when they saw a
mound Of fresh dirt.
They began scratching at the
pile, believing it was an ami
mails nest, when they saw hair.
It was that of Susan Ann.
Capt. Elmer Hagner of the
Anne Arundel County Police
said the boys told him they ran
to the closest house about a
quarter of a mile away to re-
port the discovery. Police were
called to the scene by Mrs.
Virgil Bolin, mother of one of
the boys.
Mrs. Jackson was lying on
her back in the grave, accord
