coming from once silent
sources and a former supporter
doesn't seem interested this
time.
The first group, the Virginia
National Capital Park Author
ity, was formed in 1850 with
the strong backing of Arling-
ton. But it died about seven
years later when Fairfax re-
fused to come up with any
money.
Set Up in 1858
The new Authority, set up
in 1858. has the support Of
Fairfax but Alexandria won't
join, and Arlington voters re-
Gently rejected $130,000 bond
issue which would have pro-
vided the Authority with land
acquisition funds.
In addition, the Authority
isn't even sure of getting the
100000 in bond funds ap-
proved by Fairfax voters earlier
this year. A court test of the
bond issue has been taken to
the Virginia Supreme Court OF
Appeals.
But park supporters say this
time they won't let the trees
obstruct their view of the re-
gional forest.
Mrs. Mary Cook Hackman
vice chairman of the Authori-
ty, said she would propose at
q meeting tomorrow that the
Authority ask the Arlington
County Board to appropriate
from the county's operating
budget some of the funds re-
jected in the May II election.
Authority members also see
hope in eventually persuading
Alexandria, as we'll as Loudour
Ind Prince William Counties
to join.
