Ernest D. wilt, q banker
who has become something Of
Q political phenomenon in Arl-
ington. has decided to seek
election to the County Board
as an independent.
Mr.. Wilt has served on the
board since January, when he
received an interim appoint
ment after the death Of David
L. Krupsaw.
In a brief statement yester-
day. he said:
81 have decided to run as an
independent for the unexpired
term Of David KrupSaw.
'T shall welcome support
from any individuals and
groups that share my interest
in a constructive, sensible pro-
gram for Arlington County"
Receives Broad Support
Democrats have voted not to
enter a candidate against Mr..
Wilt. Leaders of the liberal
coalition. Arlingtonians For A
Better County, and of the Re-
publican Party also hope their
factions will not oppose him.
Thus he probably will have
the unprecedented Endorsement
Of all three major political fac
tons.
However, he will encounter
opposition for the three-year
unexpired term from B. M.
Miller, who is running as a
candidate Of the Constitution
Party.
Privately, Democratic, ABC
and Republican leaders all have
urged Mr.. Wilt to become a
candidate.
He finally agreed after tell
ing them that If elected he
intends to retain his inde-
pendence from all three fac
tions. ....-
He is not expected to indorse
either his fellow board mem
Der, Ralph Kaul, or Repub-
lican Representative Joel T.
Broyhill in their coming fight
for Northern Virginia's seat in
Congress.
Lifetime Arlington Resident
Similarly. he probably will
stay out Of the contest for the
other County Board vacancy.
The Democratic incumbent,
Lucas Bleyins, is expected to
be, opposed by a nominee to be
selected by the ABC.

The District hopes some day

said in a television interview
yesterday.
Mr.. England explained that
the denominations might be
required every 10 years for driv-
ers up to IS and more frequent

program would require a larger
staff and more money.
When asked about the low
drunken driving arrest rate in
the District, Mr.. England said
that, under present law, sub :
missions to chemical tests for
sobriety are voluntary. He said
he and other traffic and police
officials are urging adoption OF
an implied consent" law. Un-
der such a law, a driver would
have to agree, before he re-
ceived a drivers license, to SUBJ
NIT to chemical tests If arrested
Mr.. England also said the
District Commissioners have
under consideration legislation
to establish a fund to pay for
