four requests for apartment

fuel to the county's current
controversy regarding the num-
Der and location of apartment
Developments. The two largest
apartment proposals., details Of
which were recently announced
by developers, were as follows:
Redistribution Asked
A request for reclassification
of 96.S acres of.residential R-90
property on the west side Of
Rockville pike just north Of the
Pooks Hill apartments and
Grosvenor lane between Be-
thesda and Rockville. The ap-
plicantS. who seek high-dersity

Washingtonian Motel. The ap-
plicant corporation is controlled
by Sam Fig, a prominent Silver

adjacent motel.
Apartment Zone Requested
The scene Of numerous Bit
terly fought coming battles dur
ing the past six years-the
Hydena Corp. property north
west of the Colesville road
New Hampshire avenue inter-
section near White Oak - is
the subject of a new medium
density apartment zone request.
Previous attempts to obtain
commercial zoning for the 29-
acre tract were defeated by
protesting civic groups in the
area.
Another apartment zone plea
involving only 3.4 acres just
beyond the northern boundary
Of the Silver Spring business
district-was filed in behalf Of
Frank L. Hewitt. a leading Sill

Need of New
Dedication
BALTIMORE, Jan. / (AP).-

BALTIMORE, Jan. / (AP.-
The chief business of Christian
churches in the next 10 years
is to open the eyes Of a largely
blinded world. a Methodist
bishop said last night.
Bishop Roy H. Short Of Nash
vile. Tenn, said the world for
the most part seems to be blind
to values and blind to the con-
sequences Of its action. It's only
hope, he added, is q return to
religion and q fresh dedication
to Christ's principles.
I'VE must do it by the per-
suasion Of demonstration. and
the persuasion Of love-" said
Bishop Short.
Anniversary Session
He spoke at one Of a series
Of meetings marking the l75th
anniversary Of Methodism in
the United States. The Christ
mas Conference sessions end
ing last night were held in
Lovely Lane Methodist Church,
mother church Of the religious
sect in this country.
In rounding out the special
week Of services. Bishop Brom-
ley @. Oman Of Washington.
D. c., will preach at the church
Sunday evening.
In last nights talk, Bishop
Short emphasized that the
world is undergoing fast-mov-
ing changes and that the spirit
OF freedom is one of the most
insistent Of these.
Cites Dangers
1T is a world more intimate
and smaller than the world
as it existed before the new
conquests of mankind" he said
1T is a world where on every
hand men are demanding free
dom and fullness of life. It is
a world which, because Of sci
entific advancement, is capable
Of destroying itself and In great
danger of doing so unless men
everywhere learn the secret OF
how to live together"
The Methodist Official said
the next decade promises to be
one Of destiny determining
years for all time to come.
| Some 300 young Methodist
ministers and their wives at
tended the conference. They
represented 81 States.

Cut |mportsOf
Bargain Liquor

Maryland residents have been
more cautious this season about
bringing home loads Of liquor
from District stores that under
sell suburban merchants.
Only five arrestS-three in
Montgomery county and two
in Prince Georges-have been
reported by the Maryland Al
coholic Tax Enforcement Unit.
Suspects are accused Of exceed
ing the alcoholic beverage i'm
portation quota Of one quart
at a time, and no more than
two quarts a month.
Robert N. Lucke, head Of the
unit, attributes the small ar
rest record to the public's
awareness of the State law, the
publicity it's being given in
newspapers. and to "stricter
enforcement"
The seven-man unit each
year-end holiday season MAIN
tains an aIl-out vigil for PARTY
bound and gift-bearing persons
crossing the border with liquor
not bearing a Maryland tax
stamp. Violators are subject to
a fine of up 20 $1,000, or two
years in Iail, or both.
Some Warned
While the total arrests has
been small, Mr.. Lucke said a
number of warning tickets have
been issued and liquor confis-
Gated. An exact count will not
be available until late this
month.
The five arrested posted
collaterals up to $3.50 and are
expected to forfeit when their
cases are called in court this
month. Forfeiture means the
seized liquor remains with the
tax agents.
A person who receives a
warning ticket and has his
liquor confiscated cannot get
the bottles back unless he pc
titions the tax office. If he
does. agents will issue a war
rant for his arrest and a court
then will decide if there was a
violation.
Liquor is returned to those
acquitted. Otherwise it is kept
In a vault in the controllers
Office in Annapolis and auc-
toned later to licensed liquor
dealers. The receipts go into
the States general fund.
Kept 30 Days
Mr.. Lucke said the con-
fiscated liquor is kept at least
80 days to give purchasers time
to appeal to get 1t back.
There Is no set policy as to
when an agent seizes liquor
after issuing a warning ticket.
Copies of the tickets, with an
itemizsd list Of the seizure is
kept in the agents Office in An
napolis. This list is checked
against the liquor turned in
by agents.
Mr.. Lucke said that If an
agent feels he has stopped a
habitual violator who is carry
ing a sizable liquor load. the
cargo will be seized in return
for a warning ticket.
On the other hand, another
person receiving a warning tick
ct may be allowed to keep his
LIQUOR if it is small amount
and the agent feels the pur-
CHASER has not acted in open
defiance Of the law.
The seizures are made under
a law that provides that all
non-taxed liquor is considered
contraband and open to con-
fiscation by agents, Mr.. Lucke
said.
He noted border patrols also
are maintained along the Win =
ginia. West Virginia. Pennsyl-
YafNa and Delaware borders.
