Sewer Rate Boost
Asked in Counties
Maryland Unit
Would Spend
SAIL Million
BY JAMES B. ROWLAND
Star stan Writer

A record SAIL million budget
for a Scent increase in
the sewer rate was proposed
today by the Washington Sub
urban Sanitary Commission.
About 125,00O homes in Mont
gomely and Prince Georges
Counties would be affected.
The proposed 1861 budget is
81 million more than the cur
rent appropriations. No change
is proposed in the current water
rate of Is cents per 1000 GAL
Ions.
If adopted after a public
hearing, the sewer rate would
jump to 10 cents per 1000 gall
Ions of water used. This would
be the first sewer rate increase
since 1858 for the agency's
Prince Georges Montgomery
County area.
Date Not Set
The increase would cost the
average family of four about
$3.50 more a year. Officials
have not yet decided when the
additional billing would start.
Customers are billed twice an
nually.
Refuse collection and disposal
fees remain the same in the
budget, pending completion Of
studies now underway.
The public hearing on the
budget proposal has been set
for 8 pm. December 13 in the
WSSC office. 40l7 Crawford
street, Hyattsville.
The Scent boost in the
sewer charge is attributed to
higher capital and operating
costs demanded by the WSSC's
participation in use of the Dis
trict disposal plant at Blue
Plains, and to the sewer ex-
pansion program.
Based on Volume
The WSSC payment is based
on the volume of sewage pro-
cessed and on the expansion
Of the Blue Plains plant needed
to handle continually increas-
ing loads.
The WSSC's capital con-
struction program totals $24.2
million, the largest single item
in the budget. Operating ex-
penses are placed at $16.6
million. and the remainder of
the budget would be for ac-
celerated debt service pay
ments.
The commission expects an
income of $18.l million from
fees and service charges, and
plans to sell SIS million in
bonds. Cash on hand from
short-term investments is
placed at $3.5 million, and the
remainder will be obtained
through short-term borrowing.
James J. Lynch. commission
treasurer. noted that payment
to the District in 1861 for
sewage treatment alone will be
about 100000, an increase of
100000.
Bond Cost Cited
In explaining the rising cost
of the sewer program, he said
debt service on trunk sewer
bonds will be $1,020,000, up
$3.50. Cost for relocating
sewer projects during road con-
struction will jump from $685.
600 to $110,660, he said.
Sewer projects in the 427-
square-mile WSSC district are
estimated at $9.3 million, an
increase of $8.3 million. This
jump includes a payment o1
$23 million for the Anacostia
main outfall sewer in the Dis
trict.
The $24.2 million construc.
ton item includes $7.6 million
for general construction, SIS
million for major sewage dis.
posal projects; $5.7 million fol-
major water supply projects;
$2.4 million for storm drainage
projects, and $2.4 million fol-

The
Rambler
Is Briefed on
The Common Cold
BY JOHN McKELwAY

Perhaps the only sensible
approach to the common
cold is to realize, as the
doctors say, "A lot of it's
going around"
1t is reaSsuring. It wipes
out the possibility of some
bizarre disease. It is COM
forting to know others have
experienced identical gastric
disturbances or nasal block
age. And when you hear
symptoms described, you can
say knowingly. yeah, I had
something like that last
week"
With this thought in mind,
the Rambler passes into the
critical 1960s. He had hoped
they would be different.
Wondering If perhaps a
cure for the common cold
might be looming somewhere
up ahead in that new from
tier. a visit was made to the
National Institutes of Health
in Bethesda and one DR..
Robert ]. Huebner.
DR.. Huebner is a scientist,
employed by the National
Institute of Allergy and In
fectiouS Diseases. He's been
working on the common cold
and a number of other
things for the last 10 years.
He is a recognized authority
on viruses.
Once nudged, his mind
races and swoops and be-
comes after a time far more
interesting than the COM
mon cold. It Is extremely
difficult to follow as we'll as
amusing.
Describing detailed at
tempts to trace the presence
Of a virus in a mouse, an ex-
position which has the aura
Of medical mystery about it,
he will suddenly say you've
got to watch the background
noises"
Background noises" later
in the conversation, turn out
to be other viruses found in
q the mouse, viruses which
may or may not be capable
Of producing the same effects
as the virus under examina-
tion.
And it is at this point in a
discussion with DR.. Huebner
that one begins to see the
vastnesS Of the problem.

He said he would like to
build a simple little laboratory

DIR. HUEBNER and as
sociates have complicated
matters by continually dis
covering new viruses, most
Of them perfectly capable Of
causing what can be called
. cold. About 10 years ago,
there were something like 20
viruses which had been rec
ognized and catalogued. Now
its up to about 120 and there
are plenty more still to be
caught. DR.. Huebner also is
counting viruseS which
bother animals and may or
may not "cross species lines"
Vaccines can be manufac-
tured to protect against one,
or even a group of viruses,
but then there are all those
others, and it discourages
anybody who might be
called on to finance the en-
deavor. &.
DR.. Huebner's interest, at
least the other day, skipped
here and there within a prob
lem also created by the virus.
The field Of virus research Is
apparently so immense and
exacting that it discourages
young scientists from taking
it up. Or. he said, you get, the
other extreme-a scientist so
fascinated by the chemical
parts of a virus that he cares
little what it might be up to.
He thinks he's close to defin-
ing life itself.
The essence Of a virus is
what it does in nature" DR..
Huebner said, mot what it is
made of, or what it might
do in a laboratory, however
valuable the latter informa-
ton might be.
For instance, the essential
meaning Of a hat is rather
poorly expressed in chemical
terms, or even by precise de-
scriptions of its manufacture
from raw materials. The most
important concept about a
hat is to understand it as a
cover for a head"

Arthur Frommer, who wrote

(World Publishing Co., $1.95)
In it he says that "the way to
enjoy a new city or a new

sively. relying on your mind
more than your wealth." This
is fine if you can keep your
wife out of the Fifth avenue

for lunch at the Plaza.
But if you have only your
self to worry about, and don't
mind a privation here and
there, by all means get a copy
of this book by Joan M. Feld-
man and Norma Ketay. It
offers many concise tips on

you can get a steak dinner for

is unless you're ravenous be-
cause you won't be able to eat
