Site Near DC. Souqht
For Detention Home

BALTIMORE, Feb. 9 (AP)
The Board of Public Works
voted yesterday to appoint q
committee to study sites for
a juvenile detention home in
the Washington suburban area
The action was taken at the
suggestion of Thomas J. S
Waxter, director of the De-
partment of Public Welfare
who said it would be "the bet
ter part of valor" in view Of op-
position by residents of the
Beltsville area.
Welfare officials have pro-
posed building the southern re-
gional detention center on a
14-acre site off Ammendale
road near Beltsville, where Mr.
Waxter said it would be close
to the population centers II
Prince Georges and Montgom-
cry COunCleS.
The 40-bed center would be
primary for Southern Mary
land juveniles. It would house
children ordered there for
study by the courts, as well
as juveniles being held pend
ing trial.
Mr.. Waxter said the Belts
vile site has been backed by
Juvenile Court Judge Alfred
D. NoyeS of Montgomery
County and Circuit Judge
Charles C. Marbury of Prince
Georges County.
Two Of the Beltsville resi-

dents who appeared in opposi-
ton to the proposed location
for the center were asked by
Gov. Tawes to assist the COM
mittee in making a permanent
choice.
They were the Rev. c. L.
White of the Beltsville Seventh
Day Adventist Church and
Robert Lorenzen, a member of
the Beltsville Chamber of
Commerce.
Melville H. Peters, president
OF the Beltsville Citizens Asso-
citation, also spoke in opposi-
ton. and the Governor said
the board had received 81 tele-
grams from organizations and
individuals in the area.
Mr.. Peters said the general
feeling was that a detention
home would "depreciate land
values and be a stigma to the
area"
Mr.. Lorenzen, an architect,
said he considered the site a
poor choice on the basis of
population density, land use
and educational factors. He
suggested it would be better
placed in the south or south
east sections of Prince Georges
County. or the eastern portion
of Montgomery.
Mr.. Waxter said a similar
center, with a 56-bed capacity,
is IN operation at Catonsville
lin Suburban Baltimore.

ANNAPOLIS. Feb. e.-Three
bills introduced last night In
the General Assembly would
provide substantial revenues
for the Maryland suburbs of
Washington.
The principal one. submit
ted by Delegate Alexander
Stark, Democrat Of Baltimore
City, would revise the sales tax
structure and give part Of the
revenues to the counties and
Baltimore City.
Mr.. Stark's bill calls for dis
tributing nearly one fourth of
the sales tax revenues to the
localities. None Of the sales
tax now goes back to the To-
calities.
The bill also would start tax
collection on sales of IS cents
rather than at 81 cents. This
would produce additional rev.
enues to make up for part
Of the loss to the localities
the State would suffer.
s1S Million for Localities
Mr.. Stark said his bill was
aimed at giving Baltimore City
more revenue, but it also would
add heavily to the Golfers OF
other areas-such as the Wash
ington suburbs - where retail
sales are high. The tax return
to the localities would be on the
basis Of the amount taken In
by them.

Through City

The Falls Church City Coun-
Gil last night restated its op-
position Of two years ago to
having Interstate Route 66 run
through the two-square-mile
city.
The councils action, was
prompted by last weeks intro.
duction by Arlington State SEN
ator Charles r. Fenwick of a
bill in the General Assembly
authorizing the State highway
department to acquire the en-
tire Washington & Old Domin-
ion railroad bed as a corridor
for the proposed Route 66. The
WHO'D passes through Falls
Church on its run from Rosslyn
in Arlington to Purcellville.
Senator Fenwick's bill would
permit the highway department
to resell that part of the
WHO'D right-of-way not need
ed for highway purposes.
The council unanimously
urged that the propose d
through way bypass Falls
Church.
Council members and Plan
ming Commission Chairman
Thomas r. Jones said that TAX
ing Route 66 through the city
would "cut the city into two
parts" isolate two of the city's
four schools. require at least
five overpasses to connect city
streets, knock out" the West
End shopping area and "have
a detrimental effect on the only
industrial area" in the city.
The city manager also was
authorized to testify against
two other Assembly bills. One
would raise the minimum popu-
lation requirement for cities to
acquire second and first class
status from the present 5000
and 10000 respectively to
10000 and 10000. The second
piece Of legislation is aimed at

Small Loans Affected
Among other new bills Is one
by Delegate Alger Y. Barbee,
Democrat Of Montgomery, and
seven other Delegates, to in
crease the size Of loans that
could be made by small loan
companies. These companies
now are limited to loans Of
$500. The new bill would in
crease this to $500. Interest
would remain at 3 per cent
per month for amounts up to
$500. The rate for the next
$500 would be 2 per cent and
on the last 5000 at I per cent.
A bill by Senator Aaron Baer,
Democrat Of Baltimore City,
would require doctors to report
the names Of patients who are
habitual users of narcotics.
This report would be made

disappointment today in Mr.,
Landlords statement.
He has not gone far
enough" Mr.. Hume said. "Mr
Lankford knows as much OF
more about the problem as
do. He has to stand up and
be counted"
Informed Of Mr.. Hume's OBJ
lection that he didn't 60 far
enough, Mr.. Lankford replied
I don't know what else I can
do. I have no means Of inves-
tigating this myself. He CMr.
Hume) called for an investiga-
ton and I did the only thing
I knew. I referred it to the
proper committee"
The legislator, explaining that
the committee has Jurisdiction
over such matters, said he would
await its decision before max
ing a further statement.
Mr.. Hume noted that the
committee to which Represent
ative Lankford is referring the
letter is that headed by Repre-
sentative Harris, Democrat of
Arkansas.
Heavy Schedule Noted
ut is well known that the
Harris committee has q full
load Of work at this time" Mr..
Hume added. However, if Mr..
Lankford will give this his
vigorous support I feel we will
have the investigation"
Mr.. Hume, who was Joined
Sunday by the Charles County
Ministerial Association in his
plea for a Federal probe, said
the Harris committee is nov
loaded with payola and
got all they can do investigat-
ing that"
He said there is a difference
between turning over q letter
and actually giving this matter
a strong recommendation"
Mr.. Hume. in his letter, sug-
geSted the possibility that slot
machines are being transported
across State lines in violation
OF 1851 Federal law.
There were S66 slot ma
chimes in Charles County in
1852 and more than 1900 to-
day." Mr.. Hume said.
Because Of his own crusade,
Mr.. Hume said, proponents OF
slot machines are demand
ing my resignation from my
post on the State Central Com
mittee."
Slot machines are legal not
only in Charles County but also
in Anne Arundel, Calvert and
st. Marys Counties. Gov. Tawes
recently told a Charles County
delegation he thought the ma
chimes were evil"

under his bill. with about 81
million Of 1t going TO Baltimore.
Another measure introduced
by Mr.. Stark would place a tax
on deposits Of savings and loan
companies. His bill provides for
q tax Of 10 cents per 500 on
deposits over $500.000. Ninety
per cent Of the money raised by
the levy would be returned to
the localities. This bill also was
aimed at helping Baltimore but
it would give more funds to 10

are large savings and loan as
sociations such as in the Wash
ington area.
Aid for Junior Colleges
Savings and loan companies
now are exempt from taxation
although deposits at CONNER
