A group temporarily call
ing itself the Maryland Com
mittee for Fair Representation
launched its campaign yester-
day for reapportionment of the
General Assembly.
The concensus of Is persons
attending an organizational
meeting Of the committee at
Silver Spring was that it must
first decide how to promote
increased representation in the
Legislature for heavily popu-
lated suburban counties.
Leaders in the movement
have indicated they want a
court challenge of Maryland's
system for representation in
the Legislature, which is set
forth in the constitution with
out provision for change.
Some speakers said a consti-
tutional convention to change
other portions of the constitu-
ton along with its representa-
tion provision might be the
best approach. A bill calling
for a constitutional convention
was defeated at the recent ses-
sion of the General Assembly.
Philip B. Perlman, former
United States Solicitor General,
and a Baltimore City resident,
said the chance for court &C.
tion "is slim" and advised the
group to consider working for
a constitutional convention.
Delegate Blair Lee III of
Montgomery County said de-
feat in the recent 30-day Gen.
eral Assembly session of two
bills to increase suburban
county power "is no justifica-
ton for saying all is lost"
He noted that some represen-
tatlVeS OF rural counties came
to the aid of suburban legisla-
tors during the reapportion-
ment fight and said he would
be inclined to try again for
passage Of the bills.
He also said that there is
q need for education and po-
litical pressure even in some
of the big counties" If reappor-
tionment is to succeed. Mont
gomery's delegation was the
only one wholeheartedly in
favor Of the bills, he said.
One of the defeated bills

Virginia.
Mr.. Broyhill said Friday the
Federal transportation agency
should be restricted to building
subways in Washington and
that connecting transit opera
tions in Maryland and Virginia
should remain in private hands
and be subsidized by tax re-
lief.
He said he prefers a two
line subway crossing the Gen.
Ter Of the city and connecting
major Federal agencies and
buildings, rather than a COM
bination rapid rail and fast
bus system connecting the sub
urbs and the city without re-
gard for boundary lines.
Mrs. Wilkins said the kind
of system suggested by Mr..
Broyhill would defeat the pur-
pose of the system recommend

portation Survey completed

However, DR.. Blevins sug-

lington's opposition to the pro-
gram under which localities,
with State assistance, are
forced to pay up to $3.50 to
pupils who do not want to go
to public school.
The General Assembly in
emergency session last year
authorized the grants with the
intention of benefitting parents
who want to keep their chill
dren out of integrated schools.
Reid'S Report
School Superintendent Ray
Reid reported to the board yes
terday that of the 172 Arlington
children who have received the
grants. only 48 attended
county schools last year and
that of these only Is were
in schools that have been
integrated.
Look at the tax position of
middle and lower income fami-
lies who are forced to pay taxes
to support both public schools
and private schools, and in
some instances to pay to send
their own children to parochial
schools" said Mr.. Kaul.
Warning by Kaul
Mr. Kaul said he did not
blame people for taking aovan-
tage of the tuition grants be-
cause the law makes them
available. But he warned that
he is inclined to vote against
including money for them in
the budget unless he is shown
compelling reasons for doing so.
Mr.. Urbanske said he felt the
same provided Arlington would
not incur any unexpected PEN
alties, if it refuses to pay the
grants.
DR.. Blevins said. THE tuition
grants have not helped us to
the extent we expected, and l
would favor doing away with
the whole concept"

House |noction PeriIs $40 Million
District Projects, Revenue Plans
Committee DeIuy
Holds Up Levies
For $8.2 Million
BY JAMES G. DEANE
Star 'StaH Writer


The House District Commit.
tees inaction on Districts tax.
increase plans is posing a ques-
ton mark regarding SOB mil.
lion in public works projects
scheduled this year.
The District on January Is
submitted a request for increase
in income, liquor, beer, cigarette
and unincorporated business
taxes, totaling an estimated
$8.2 million a year. Local tele.
phone service would be taxed
also for the first time.
These increases, which re-
quire congressional authorize.
ton, would be coupled with a
20-cent increase in the present
$3.50 real estate tax rate. The
realty rise would produce about
$4.5 million a year.
So far. Committee Chairman
Mcmillan, Democrat Of South
Carolina, has not introduced
the bill for the non-realty tax
changes. Instead, he recently
introduced a bill of his own
calling for a 3 per cent sales
tax. The city's sales levy now
is Q per cent.
Await Virginia Action
City officials have indicated
opposition to sales tax rise
unless Virginia adopts a sales
levy.
However, with the Virginia
legislators apparently turning
thumbs down for now on any
sales levy, city budget leaders
now are hoping for some signs
OF activity on Capitol Hill.
Continued delay could prove
serious in view of the expected
early adjournment of Congress.
The proposed realty tax
rise is potentially troublesome.
The realty rate is set by the
Commissioners without need
for essional action.
Should Congress fail to ap.
prove the other parts of the
tax package, the financial pres
sure would fall doubly on
property owners, inasmuch as
the Commissioners must by law
raise the realty rate if the city
could not meet its bills other
wise.
Mr.. Mcmillan said several
weeks ago he contemplated
holding hearings on the Com
missioners' proposals. On FRI
day, asked through an aide
what the status of the tax
4 proposals was, he said House
members were occupied with the
civil rights debate and sug-
gested deferring questions un-
til it is settled.
One source close to the COM
mittee indicated doubt that the
legislation will be approved at
this session of Congress.
Inaction Poses Problems
Difficult choices would face
the city heads in the absence
of congressional action. The
choices would be:
/. A still higher increase in
the realty tax rate;
2. An increase in public
works borrowing - which re.
quires congressional approval.
3. A cutback in planned pub
lie works.
District Commissioner Rob-
ert E. Mclaughlin already has
stressed the reluctance of the
Commissioners to order even
the proposed realty tax increase
if other tax rises do not go
through at the same time, on
the grounds that this would be
inequitable.

cally for the benefit of the

His own chief interest. he
says, is to find the relationship
between the leisure-time ac-
tivities of youngsters down.
town and those in the suburbs.
Several graduate students
probably will use the survey
material for theses, he adds.
The Health and Welfare
Council is cooperating in the
project because it believes the
data will be valuable for un-
derstanding recreational needs
and planning programs. The
survey is designed to show
what youngsters actually do
and what they would like to
do with their spare time.
This practical side of the re-
search project also accounts
for the active participation of
various welfare and recreation
agencies, as we'll as of the
school systems.
Some Questions Omitted
Work on organizing the sur
vey has been going OH for a
year. Last fall $500 youngsters
participated in a dry run" to
test some questions.

rector of the project and d
member Of the University of

taken to exclude questions

An ambitious new survey
designed to find out about the
spare-time activities of 100,-
900 youngsters in the Wash
ington area - is giving high
school principals a hard time.
Produced by the University
of Maryland's Sociology De-
partment and the Health and
Welfare Council. it is made up
OF several hundred questions
ranging from how much time
the youngsters spend writing
plays to how much time they
spend drag racing and dating.
In addition, they are asked
about the organizations in
which their parents are ac-
tive. their economic status,
their work in school and their
plans for the future.
The survey, which has an
impressive array of supporters,
was begun in the District about
three weeks ago. 1t will start
in Prince Georges schools on
Tuesday.

(teachers) can follow them. "
He boiled down the 16-page
manual to one nimeographed
sheet.
Several other principals did
the same thing. Virtually all
commented on the verbosity of
the instructions.
3. The surveys overall OBJ
jective are vague.
Many principals questioned
by The Star seemed doubtful
that any tangible improvement
of recreational facilities would
result from the survey. Some
said the survey data probably
would just be used for doc
toral theses.
They agreed that whether OF
not in the final analysis the
survey is a waste Of time de-
pends on what is done with
the results.
Funds for the mammoth
project - believed to be the
first of its kind-came from
the Cooperative Research Pro-
gram Of the United States Of
flee of Education.
