remains to be installed.
With Mr.. Jones at the helm,
the junk was towed by a So
foot cabin cruiser, owned by a

more to the Jones summer home

The Fairfax County super
visors plan to decide next week
what to do about the controver-
sial urban county plan.
Proposals for a referendum in
November on the new form Of
county government received a
cool reception from the super
visors yesterday during a day
long hearing devoted mainly to
the plan.
At the end, a move to hold
a referendum on the plan in
1862 was defeated. The SUPER
visors decided to put off a de-
cision until next Wednesday.
About so persons turned out
for the hearing. Criticism and
praise of the urban county plan
came in about equal measure.
Arlington County's plan,
which had been described as
complete protection against an
nexations by Falls Church and
Alexandria, received virtually
no support.

that exist between packers and
producers, between tongers and

Among the questions to be
discussed are the shortage of
crabs. markets for oysters, the
effect Of foreign competition,

Foreign Competition

competition from foreign coun-
tries in the seafood industry
and stressed the need for CO.
operation to meet this chal-
lenge.
The primary object Of today's
discussion is cooperation in
Chesapeake Bay problems, al
though the representatives
probably will discuss the Poto-
