Butcher Says
w. Cedar La. Job
Not NH Project

Charges that the County
wants to rebuild West Cedar
Ia, Bethesda, from Old
Georgetown I'd. to Wisconsin
ave. mainly at the behest of
the National Institutes of
Health were refuted by
County officials at a public
hearing Tuesday.
The hearing was called to air
front foot benefit project that
will cost $233,000, almost half
Of which will be footed by the
Federal Government. Cedar la.
forms one boundary of NH.
The widened West Cedar la.
would serve Alta Vista, Wiscon.
sin Estates, Cedarcrest and
parts of other subdivisions and
would result in the improve
ment of Locust ave.
Neighbors and spokesman for
others protested that he narrow
winding street serves them well
enough and that the National
Institutes of Health was the real
party to benefit from the i'm.
provement.
West Cedar la. would be wild.
ened to "A feet with necessary
curb, gutter and sidewalks. The
jobs cost was estimated on a
charge of $9.15 per assessable
foot. The Government would
pay up to 100000 of the total
cost, while the county would
bear $4,000.

Open Meeting Policy
Backed Federation

The public's business
should be conducted in pub
lie and the county Board of
Appeals was right in adopt
ing a resolution along those
lines, the county Civic Fed
GRAFTON voted Monday night.
At issue was the highly pub
licized resolution adopted by
the Appeals Board in which it
stated that all communication
with the board should be done
in writing or at public hear
ing.
'Neither the board nor any
member of it will have any pri.
vate meeting, conversation or
other communication with any
person on the merits of case,'
the resolution declared.
The discussion grew out of an
incident last April 7 in which
County Manager M. L, Reese
approached the board in pri-
vate meeting to discuss two
micro-wave towers being built
by Potomac Electric Power Co.
The Reese tactic was strongly
objected to by Appeals Board
Member William A. Quinlan
who argued that Reese had no
right to discuss a matter to
come before the Appeals Board
IN private. Quinlan said the
Reese approach conflicted with
resolution concerning prin-
ciples" adopted by the Appeals
Board February, 16. He was
supported in this by fellow
board member, Mrs. Mary Hep
burn.
The federation reiterated its
stand to the proposed "I-3"
zone, affirming its belief that
100 acres is a minimum limit
for economic development of in
dustrial park areas within the
restrictions imposed by the text
of the proposed coming amend
ment.
1t was emphasized that it is
desirable to avoid establishment
of a large number of minimum
size industrial developments
within the county. Acreage re-
quired for necessary and essen
tial setbacks would encourage a
breaking down of the restric-
tons provided for in the pro-
posed text in so far as zones in
the appropriate area range OF
so acres are concerned. The
proposed text amendment pro-
vides that the industrial park
have a minimum of so acres.
It endorsed the recommended
ton in Senate Report No. So of
the Seth Congress that the
problems of metropolitan
growth in the National Capital
Region be met through joint &C.
ton by the political jurisdic-
tons comprising the area.

Refinish Only if You Must
By HERMAN BAUM
By HERMAN BAUM
Contributing Writer

II have several fine antique
chairs. The finish on them
Is very dull. Please give me
some instructions on the
method of removing the old
finish and applying a new
one" d. D. K. writes.
,Answer-Much of the fur
niture that is ref1nished by
amateurs should not be re-
finished at all. BY so doing,
the fine old finish is de-
stroyed, the wood is often
damaged and the color light
ened so that old Duncan
Phyfe would never recognize
his own handiwork.
Much of this old furniture
can be restored without re-
moving the old finish and
At is always wise to give this
method q trial before pro-
ceeding to the more difficult
task of stripping the finish.
II the restoration job does
not turn out as you want,
you always can proceed with
Sefinishing.
Start of on the restoration
Job by washing the surface
to remove dirt and CRIME.
This may be all that is neces-
sary. There are several meth
DDS that you may use. Mild
soap and water can be used
without damaging the furni-
ture. Of course, you must
dry the surface Immediately.
Green soap, available at
the drug store, is another
product often used. Dampen
q celluloSe sponge with warm
water. Spread on about a
teaspoon of the soap and
scrub with a circular motion
to work op a lather. Rinse
with. tepid water and dry.
"A method often used by
professional refinishers is to
mix one quart of hot water,
three tablespoonful of boiled
linseed oil and one table
spoonful Of turpentine. Keep
hot in a double boiler. Use
soft cloths dipped in this
mixture for rubbing the sur
face Of the furniture. One
word Of caution: On veneer
furniture, work rapidly and
with q minimum Of wetting.
Stronger Measures
: II further treatment is
necessary, removal of wax
and polish is the first step.

Turpentine on a soft cloth is
generally used. For thick
hardened accumulation, No.
600 steel wool may be used
with the turpentine.
Now, you must determine
the material used for the
original finish. In an incon-
Spicuous spot, apply a drop
Of alcohol. This will soften
shellac but will not affect
varnish or lacquer. A drop
or lacquer thinner will do the
same thing on a lacquered
surface.
To restore a Shellac finish,
mix two parts parafiin oil
and one part fresh white
shellac. Dampen q soft cloth
with the mixture and rub the
surface in the direction Of
the grain. Wipe dry with
clean cloths. In severe cases,
use 900 grade steel wool in
stead of the cloth.
A vanished surface can be
