Projects

Rockville city heads, COM
pleting their mid-year budg-
ct review Saturday, author
lied new appropriations
totaling $45,370 including
$1,000 worth of baseball fields
and $30,580 street and sewer
projects.
Offsetting the new appropri-
atoms are a $4,000 cut from the
June ALLEGATION of $4,000 for a
street rehabilitation program,
and a $1,000 surplus from fiscal
1889.
The street and sewer projects
which will be carried as bond is

curb and cutters.
. Sidewalks on Midway ave-,
Aleutian ave., Jefferson st. and
w. Montgomery ave.
. A sewer main to be built at
Nelson st. from w. Montgomery
ave. to Beall st.
The $1,000 ALLEGATION to build
an estimated three baseball
fields is in response to frequent
requests from the coaches of the
little leaguers. At last weeks
regular council meeting little
league representatives went so
far as to suggest an increase in
the city tax rate, obviously for
more funds for the recreation
department.
Other new ALLEGATIONS were:
$1,000 raise in pay for city
manager Walter A. Scheiber,
bringing his yearly salary to
$12, 500.
$1,000 for stepped up pro-

Seventeen miles of the

Council Gets
$50 Million
School Plea

County School Board
President Paul c. Howard
on Tuesday formally hand
ed the County Council a
school budget request of
$50, 412, 189 for 1960-61.
Howard told the council that
the portion of the budget. for
new construction totalled &c.,
881 900 while the operating por-
ton came to $38, $50, 900 in round
figures.
He noted that 43 construction
projects were included In the
budget and represented "but a
forerunner" of projects to be
proposed in future budgets.
Ten per cent of the operating
budget was earmarked for new
personnel and facilities made
necessary by the annual in
crease in school population.
The Council accepted the two
budgets and told Howard that
meetings between the two
bodies would be set as soon as
possible. The Council has re-
served the period between
March 10 and April Is for hear.
ings on the County Managers
County budget.
In receiving the School Board
budget, Council President Grow
err X. Walker told Howard that
copies of the education budgets
would be turned over to Reese
for his recommendations of
funding them.
A suit is pending in Mont
gomery County Circuit Court,
filed by the Council for Better
Education, which challenges
that procedure. 1t argues that
the Reese should be permitted
to make firm cuts in the budget
that could only be increased by
the councilmen by a 50 vote.
Under a recent council policy
decision, Reese's school budget
role will be only advisory.

u. S. Still
Smith Case

Justice Department Off
Gals continued their study
this week of the FBI pre-
liminary report on the Mel
vim w. Smith police brutality
case.
Acting Assistant Attorney
General Joseph M. F. Ryan, in
charge of the Departments
Civil Rights Division, said the
charges brought by the 18-year-
old Gaithersburg youth against
four county officers are "still
under consideration"
He refused to say when he
expected to finish his study of
the FBI findings.
Also incomplete is an indie
pendent investigation being car
ried on by County Manager M.
L. Reese. Last week, the coun-
ty manager told the Council he
hoped to have his report ready
within two weeks.
The County Bar Association
made a surprise entrance in the
case at its meeting Monday.
Reporters were barred from
the meeting but President Alger
Y. Barbee said the group unani-
mously adopted a resolution
expressing confidence in the
justice of our courts and in the
efficiency of the States Attor-
ney's office"
He declined to discuss what
led up to the adoption of the
resolution and in response to
a question said its adoption did
not necessarily preclude further
action on the subject by the bar
group.
A resolution to the effect that
it was the sense of the bar
group that the county grand
jury should be recalled to look
into various facets of the Smith
case was voted down by the
lawyers, 1t was learned from an
other source. Debate on the sub
ject was repeatedly stormy"

Egan VIII Name
Another Minister
To Parole Board

JUNEAU, lR-Gov. William A.
Egan said yesterday he will name
another minister to take the place
he had once designated for the
Rev. FELTON, H. Griffin of An
chorage on the State Parole
Board.
The chief executive told his
Thursday news conference he had
not contacted the man he has in
mind to join Mary Alice Miller
of Fairbanks and Charles Pfeiffer,
Director of the State Division of
Youth and Adult Authority, on
the Parole Board.
Griffin was appointed to the
board on Aug. % along with Mrs.
Miller and Pfeiffer, but before
the Anchorage minister took his
oath of office he wrote singing
attack on Catholicism.
The article appeared in the
September issue of the magazine
Alaska Baptist Messenger. Crit
fin is pastor of the First Baptist
Church in Anchorage.
After the article appeared, Egan
decided Griffin's strong religious
convictions might affect his deci-
sions as a member of the State
Parole Board.
Consequently Griffin was never
administered the oath of office.
Legally, he was never a member
of the Parole Board.
"If it were a Catholic l planned
to appoint and 1 found he had
religious convictions so strong he
would condemn another man on
religious grounds alone, I would
take the same course of action
again." Egan said.
Griffin's article dealt primar
lily with the Democratic party's
presidential nominee, Sen. John
F. Kennedy, a Catholic.
Egan, incidentally, is a strong
Kennedy supporter.

Nearly 1O7 Million
Americans Will be Eligible
To Vote In Nov. 8 Election

WASHINGTON, R-Nearly 1O7
million American citizens will be
old enough to vote in the Novem-
Der General Election, the Census
Bureau estimates.
But only about 6412 million
actually will vote, the Bureau
said today, if the same proper
ton of voting-age men and wom-
en- cast ballots as in 1856.
The total presidential vote four
years ago was 62,027 900, or 60,4
per cent of the 02,726,000 civil
ians who were then of voting age.
The census estimate of the
number who will be of voting age
on Nov. 8-106, 874 ,000-excludes
about 1.9 million members of the
armed forces at home and abroad
and an unknown number of civ
ilians abroad, some of whom
would be eligible to vote.
Women of voting age, estimated
at SOL million, will outnumber
men by about So million.
Census said its total includes
"a great many persons who, al
though old enough to vote, can
not do So" Among the latter are
about 2.75 million aliens; resi-
dents of jails, mental hospitals
and the District of Columbia; and
some who have not satisfied state
requirements as to residence, reg
istration or poltax payment.
