Industrial
Zoning Mixed
By Rockville

In an action designed to
compromise residential and
industrial interests on N.
Horners Ia, the Rockville
council voted to grant only
one of Lewis Golfers rezoning
requests.
The council, in a a to 1 vote,
denied Golfers request for in
dustrial coming for one acre
facing a church. Councilman
Glen Koepenick's was the one
vote disagreeing with the coun-
ellis action.
In order to give City Attorney
William A. Linthicum time to
write in a clause calling for
an adequate buffer zone on
Golfers property to protect the
surrounding residential neigh.
borhood, the council delayed an
affirmative vote on Golfers re.
quest for industrial coming on
a six acre site.
Golfer and his neighbors have
gone through several rounds of
fights before the council. Cot.
Ter, whose industrial property
was annexed recently over his
protest and zoned residential,
wished to expand his business.
His neighbors, on the other
hand, would be happier to see
him discontinue completely, and
said any expansion on Golfers
part would result in deteriation
in the neighborFood.
Mayor Alexander ]. Greene
expressed the hope that by
denying the rezoning for one
site and requiring a buffer on
the other, 1t would give Golfer
room for expansion without be-
ing detrinent to the neigh
borhood.

plications for com m e cha
coming of property at the south
east intersection of New Hamp-
sire ave. and Boteler rd., White
Oak.
The Planning Board had
recommended approval of the
petitions, but suggested that
only a portion of the land be
reclassified.
Cahoon noted that there were
many questions involved which
could have been answered if
the planners had drafted a
coming plan for the area. The
council then voted to approve
the applications.
Two other coming petitions
also were granted. They are:
Redistribution from R-R to
I-3 (industriaD of 76 acres at
the intersection of Shady
Grove I'd. and U. S. Route 10,
(new Route 240) near Gathers

ton of Michigan and Pennsyl-
vania aves., Linden.
Redistribution from R-60 to
IL of property along Maine

FrOsh Asks
Pay Boost
For Council

A proposal to nearly
double the salaries of Coun-
ty Council members is be-
ing considered by the coun-
ty heads.
The recommendation to
increase the $50 per meeting
rate to $50 and to submit it to
the voters in a November ref
erendum was made Tuesday by
Councilman Stanley B. Frosh.
He said that because of the
many council meetings, lit is
becoming very difficult for
members to earn a living"
Frosh estimated that the
council now holds between 100
and ITO meetings and hearings
annually. He added that the APP
proximately $1,000 which the
members receive for attending
these meetings does not com.
pelsate them for the time lost
in carrying on their business
and professions.
At the same time, Frosh EN-
phasized that the proposed pay
boost could be applied only to
future members of the council,
since the body is prohibited by
law from raising its own sal
aries.
Both Mrs. Stella B. Werner
and William F. Hickey agreed
that the entire matter of salar-
les in proportion to council du-
ties and responsibilities should
be studied carefully.
Hickey said it might be pref
cradle to set up annual salaries
for council members, instead of
basing their compensation on
the number of meetings they
attend.
Mrs. Werner, however, con-
tended the question should not
be submitted to the voters dur
ing a presidential election year
because it might not receive
the attention II deserves"
Council members agreed to
defer action on the recommen-
dalton until next week. At that
time, they also will take up the
question of a referendum on a
proposed charter amendment.
This would permit the council
to increase the county man
ayers school appropriation rec
concentrations by a majority
vote.
Such action would be in line

problems of senior citizens.
1--WE want to give the people
an opportunity to express them
selves on all aspects of these
problems" said Carl Howe,
chairman of the 16-member
commission.
He emphasized the hearings
will not be limited to the elder
ly, but will be open to anyone
"who has any ideas"
Committees named Tuesday
will devote themselves to these
studies:
Health and social services,
use of leisure time, sources of
income, housing, employment,
community relations, urban and
rural problems, and survey.
Their duties will be to deter
mine the present activity and the
strong and weak points in each
field, and to draft specific
recommendations, Howe ex-
planned.
The commission also went on
record in favor Of continuing
Federal ALLEGATIONS to the State
Commission on Aging to sup
plement State funds.
In addressing the group ear
lier, Councilwoman Stella B.
Werner said getting old should
be a challenge"
"Your duties" she told the
commission members, will be
to stimulate an awareness that
our senior citizens can continue
to lead full and satisfactory
lives"
She also pointed out that
Montgomery is the first county
in the State to have an adj
visory body on such a subject.

And she added that other coun-
ties" will be loo ing for us to
set a pattern for chem.
Mrs. Werner emphasized that
the commission is flexible" in
the number of its members and
that it was free to cali in other
citizens as advisors and con-
sultants. She also said secre-
tarial service could be obtained
from the county managers
office.
Don't wait for some big re-
port" she said. Tell us of
your progress"

Development Agency
Pushed by Council
TwO-Year-Old
Plan Given New
Life by Action
BY j. B. Zatnnan


A two-year-old proposal
to set up a Montgomery
County Economic Develop
ment Commission has re-
ceived its first real push
from the County Council.
The county heads Tuesday in
structed Acting County Man
ager Mason Butcher to obtain
detailed information on the op-
Grafton of similar organizations
in other areas.
The action was taken after
Butcher said such agencies are
doing a good job in research
and promotion in several cities
and counties throughout the
Nation.
This is the second year that
a $4,000 appropriation for an
Economic Development Com
mission has been carried in the
county budget. Nothing has
been done, however, to carry
out the proposal, which was
made originally by former
County Manager Melvin L.
Reese.
Councilwoman Stella B. Wer-
ner blamed the inaction on
Reese's failure to comply with
the councils request for a de-
tailed analysis of the commits
sion's functions and an esti-
mate of the staff required.
Nov we are asking you to
do this for u.s." she told
Butcher"
Butcher brought up the mat
ter at the councils meeting
after he said the Montgomery
County Chamber of Commerce
wanted the county to take a
$500 advertisement in bro
chufe which the chamber was
planning to distribute through
out the country.
professional Staff
At that point, Councilman
Stanley b. Frosh suggested the
employment of a professional
staff to coordinate land develop
ment and land use plans with
the countys tax and school
problems.
: Zone of theNglaring defects
in our planning niaehipery," he
said, lis the ability to coordi-
nate all these plans. The next
time we get a study, for ex-
ample, we should see to it that
there is continuing survey to
implement that study Other
wise, it will just be put on the
shelf"
Councilman David L. Cahoon
pointed out that the county's
Planning Board already had
made a "halting step" in that
direction by employing an econ
omist.
Il note by the newspapers"
he added, that the economist
has been hired for six months,
but | think they will need him
longer than that"
Cahoon went on to say that
lit is time to examine seriously
the question and duties of an
Economic Development Com
mission which would be in
terested in fulfilling the various
plans which we get from the
Planning Board"
1--WE have had requests for
advertisements from the New
York Times in addition to this
one from the Chamber of Com
merce," he said. THE develop
ment commission could indicate
to us which form of advertise
ment to use and how much
money we should spend"

had been held and enter it in
the record.
Il just don't have the time
to do all this" he asserted.
There are just too many
calls"
However, he voted with the
six other council members to
adopt the resolution.

County Council
Agrees to Form
New Commission

In the face of Intensified
attacks on segregation in
private establishments and a
legal ruling that it is power
less to abate the practice,
the County Council this week
authorized creation Of COM
mission to study interracial
problems.
The action emerged from
continued picketing Of the Glen
Echo amusement park, where
Negroes currently are barred,
and a more recent "sit-in''
demonstration at the Hi-Boy
restaurant in Rockville In pro-
test of its refusal to serve
Negroes within its dining room
or at It's lunch counter. A total
of Al persons have been ar
rested, mostly on charges of
trespassing, since the demon
strations began.
Besieged by requests for posi-
tive action to outlaw segrega.
ton in the county, the council
was told by its attorney, Alfred
H. Carter, that it does not have
legal authority over private
establishments in the natter of
racial restrictions. Then, ON
motion of Councilman Stanley
B. F'rosh, it adopted a resoIu-
ton setting up the commission
to seek means of ending inter-
racial controversy.
To Appoint Seven
Under terms of the resolu.
ton, the commission would be
composed of seven members,
each representing a specific
group. Included would be local
representatives Of the Arch
diocese of Washington. the
Montgomery County Ministerial
Association. the Washington
Board of Rabbis, the various
boards Of trade and Chambers
of Commerce in the county, the
Democratic State Central Com
mittee and the Urban League.
The commission was author
lied and directed to conn
municate with trade associa-
tons representing the owners
Of recreation, restaurant and
hotel facilities as well as indi-
vidual owners of such facilities
and any other groups or indi-
viduals who propose or oppose

tiles" It also was authorized
and directed" to cooperate with

tons"
THE commission shall at

clared.

The stock market advanced

Dow Jones industrial average
rose 1859 to 616.42.
A rather patchy business and
economic background provided
no spur for a rise but many
blue chips were far below their

enough cautious buying to give
a lot of them a moderate boost.
