named by District Judge r.

of a compromise settlement of
a suit brought by dissident
members Of the union to bar
Mr.. Hoffa from the presidency.
Mr.. Hoffa told the appeals
court that attorneys for the
union and the dissidents have
reached agreement on all issues
growing out of that suit. He
said Judge Let's had refused to
approve the agreement, how
ever, and contended that the
judge has abused his discretion.
Details of the agreements
were not given in the court

The original suit by the dis

rigging his election to the union
presidency. Under terms Of the

membership would end auto
matically after a new union
convention had met and elected

During the height Of Quemoy-
Matsu crisis In 1855 the Army
placed a rush order for %, 300
highly detailed maps Of certain
areas Of Russia, a court deci-
sion here has disclosed.
The normally secret opera
tions Of the Army Map Service
came to light because the firm
which had contracted to pro-
duce most Of the "geodetic con-
troll sketches" filed suit in the
United States Court of Claims.
Dispute Over Payment
Agreeing with the firm, Fox
Valley Engineering Inc, Of Au-
rora, H., yesterday, the court
held that the Army should not
have withheld payment for
some Of the maps which 1t
claimed were not up to tech
nical standards.
A Pentagon spokesman said
the request for the maps came
from the Air Force, but the
purpose was classified as secret
and still is.
The company began work
on the order February "a, 1855,
when both the Russians and
the Chinese Communists were
making threatening gestures
over the Formosan issue.

Heads Tough CountytR6ads job

and experience record before
coming to the county in 1916.
A native of Baltimore, he at
tended the Baltimore Polytechnic
Institute and the Alabama Poly
technic Institute at Auburn, one
of the nations top-ranking en-
cheering schools. While at Au-
burn, he took a special course
in which he attended classes for
three months and then worked
for three months as a construc-
ton surveyor.
His first, full-time job was
with the Army Constructing
Quartermaster in 1887, when he
helped design and build 25
miles of roads in the Washing
ton National Cemetery at Cat
onsville.
During the next seven years,
he alternated between the Balti-
more area and Mobile, Ala. In
the latter city, he assisted in
designing and building the
Mobile Air Depot, the largest in
stallation of its kind in South
eastern United States.
The facilities to be erected at
Mobile included roads, railways,
runways and 10-story hangers.
Kordella started on the job as
chief of surveys and ended up
as acting superintendent of con-
struction.
He also was project engineer
in charge of construction at
Edgewood Arsenal in 1871.
After enlisting in the Air
Force in 1914, he was sent to
Guam as B-29 tail gunner and
participated in the bombing
raids on Japan. He was dis
charged with the rank of staff
sergeant.
His biggest problem in OPP
Grating the Public Works De-
partment is manpower. When
he came here IA years ago,
there were three engineers and
four inspectors. Now there are
26 engineers and % inspectors,
but that's still not enough to
cover the enormous amount OF
road work being done by the

factors: An enthusiastic paid
membership of 375 persons, and
money in the bank. The center
hopes to add substantially to
both during the coming year.
A membership drive will be
launched this fall and Mrs.
Shirley Barshay, executive vice
president, said officials hope to
double the present number. The
annual membership fee is S..
The group also plans to
widen the scope of its offerings
and to reach different family
segments." In addition, an ed
ucational campaign will be
launched to acquaint major
countrywide organizations with
the art center's aims and func-
tons.
Last years activities were
confined primarily to adults.
But during the coming II
months, plans are in the mill
for three different kinds of
programs. One will be for
adults, another for children and
a third for teen-agers.
The children's program S
probably will be held at the
Naval Ordnance Laboratory at
White Oak and Leland Junior
High School Those for teen
ayers are planned tentatively at
Chevy Chase Ele m ntary
School, while the adults pro-
grams will continue to be given
at the National All Club Foun-
dation on Connecticut ave-,

Major goal of the member
ship is a 81 million center on
about 20 acres. They hope to
persuade the Park and Plan
ming Commission to make a
site available and are pressing
for this despite a preliminary
negative attitude on the part
of the planners.

county and developers, accord
ing to Kordella.
The salary scale has been the
stumbling block, he explained,
in attempting to hire more men.
However, the pay increases
granted last week by the Coun-
ty Council should be of tremen-
dous help, he added.
Another major difficulty is
storm drainage. Kordella be-
lieves it is unfair for a de-
veloper downstream to bear the
entire cost of building facilities
to take care of storm water
which is dumped onto his sub
division through no fault of his
own. But how to finance these
facilities is the big question.
To get some possible answers,
the department is working on a
pilot project on Valleywood DIR.
in the Wheaton area. Here, the
engineers will attempt to out
line a drainage district, estimate
the costs involved and then de-
termine the cost to each prop
erty in the district. From these
figures, they hope to arrive at
methods to finance this and

similar projects.
Still another ticklish problem
involves the financing of new
road construction and improve
ments to existing streets.
Tic county levies no specific
tax for road construction, Kor-
della explained. Its gets funds
for this purpose from two
sources - front foot benefit
charges on adjacent property
and from the apportionment by
the State of motor vehicle regis
tration fees and gas tax re-
ceipts.
Kordella claims the latter
source is inadequate and the
method of distribution is unfair.
Under present law, the State
Roads Commission gets so per
cent of the State gas tax and
registration fees; Baltimore
City gets 80 per cent and the
remaining 20 per cent to the %
counties and all incorporated
towns based on the road mile
age they maintain.
This is unjust, Kordella says,
because many rural counties,
such as Howard and those on
the Eastern Shore, maintain as
many miles of roads as Mont
gomery but their population is
much smaller and their needs
are much less.
AS an alternative method,
Kordella suggests the distribu-
ton be based on motor vehicle
registration, population and
gas tax collections in each coun-
ty. This would give Montgom-
cry a much greater share than
the $500 a mile it now receives
from the State.
Among the major road i'm
provement projects being
carried on or planned are:
Rebuilding and widening to
modern standards all business
district streets.
Randolph I'd. from Georgia
ave. to the Rockville pike and
across Montrose I'd. to the

In the movies, construction
engineers are usually portrayed
as brawling, heavy-drinking
giants who drive their men and
machines alike with a ruthless
hand.
In real life, however, they are
more apt to be like 41-year-old
Joseph c. Kordella, soft-spoken
acting head of Montgomery
County's busy Public Works De-
partment.
But don't let that mild man.
ner fool you. SUnder it lies an
infIexible desire and will to
build the best possible roads
that the taxpayer can get, as
more than one developer has
discovered when he tried to
buck Kordella on an essential
road code requirement.
AS a result, the county has
received repeated compliments
on the quality of its road con-
struction and maintenance from
such professional groups as the
National Association of County
Engineers and the National
Public Works Association.
BY and large, he enjoys a
good working relationship with
developers; and that's pretty
good indication of their regard
for the man who rides herd
over 100 miles of roads and
streets while his boss, Mason
Butcher, is acting county man
ager.
1t was only 10 years ago, dur
ing the debate over the road
code before the County Council,
that one builder predicted: IF
this legislation is passed, it will
drive developers out OF the
county" He couldn't have been
more wrong.
Since then, the county's popu-
lation has doubled and its road
mileage has more than doubled.
AS Kordella puts it, I'VE have
experienced a building boom
that has exceeded the widest
dreams of planners"
